A/N: Sorry if its a little out of character. It fits the story better. Thank you For reviewing my poem! I love you so much you don't even know. Enjoy! :D

I heard a car door outside.. I wonder who that is. It's only- shit. It's 11:45. I jolted out of my bed and raced to the bathroom. I brushed my hair quickly. I stopped in the mirror before I had to rush out of the house..

Since me and Duncan broke up, I had changed. I saw everything. Every flaw, every extra inch on my body, every imperfection. I really don't know where my life is going. I used to have dreams and ambitions. Now it seems like all of that is gone. Like he took that with him. I am not as 'stuck up.' Probably because I don't care anymore. About anything. I lost interest in a lot of things since I last saw Duncan..

No. Don't start crying. Come on, Courtney. He's not worth it. He's with her now. You don't need him.

It's not good to lie to yourself.

Shut up. I don't have time for this. I have to be at work in exactly ten minutes, and I don't need you making me late.

My job at the local gas station had not an ideal job, but it's a start. The customers are rude more times than not, and my boss absolutely sucks. Most of the time I wonder if it is worth minimum wage. Not likely.

"Is Mountain Dew okay?" I heard an about 17 or so year old say into his cellphone. I rolled my eyes. Work was more boring than usual. There were only a couple of people here. It's not like we were ever really busy, but I at least expected to be a little entertained. There is a million other things I could be doing. But I am stuck here.

"Princess?"

I cringed at the nickname. It couldn't be. I really don't need this.

But you want this.

I do not. I am perfectly happy without that delinquent in my life.

That is such a lie.. You really need to stop doing that.

"That is you. Almost didn't recognize you without that pole up your butt." He smirked.

I rolled my eyes. "Duncan, are you gonna buy something or not? Because if not-"

"You want me to stay, don't lie to yourself, sweetheart." He cut me off. Ugh! I so did not miss him.

Yes you did.

Ugh, Shut up!

"You miss me?" He asked with that cocky ass smirk on his face.

"Did you want something?" I pressed, annoyed. Why did that neanderthal insist on coming back into my life?

"Not really, you're just fun to annoy." He smirked. Oh how I would just love to slap that smirk right off of his face..

"Well.. You can either buy something, or get out. It's kind of a rule. Not like you'd follow it anyway, but my boss gets kinda picky." I rolled my eyes. " Anyway, don't you have a girlfriend to bother or something?"

"Now, Princess, is that any way to address a customer? Isn't the customer always right? Besides, I thought you didn't care who I dated.. Or was that just what you wanted everyone else to think?"

I looked down at my nails. So what if I still liked him?

"So you do still have a thing for me. I knew it."

"Are you quite finished?" I sighed. "And you didn't even answer my question."

"Aw, Princess still cares about me. Isn't that cute. Wouldn't you like to know." He was toying with me, and I knew it.

I glanced at the time on the register.

"Well, it's time for my break so if you would kindly, um, leave, That would be great." I smirked and walked around the counter.

"But then you'll never know about my girlfriend status." I clenched my fists and walked out the door. Of course, he followed. I turned around sharply and faced him.

"What is wrong with you?" I spat sourly. "You go and you cheat on me. You rip my entire fucking heart out and then you don't even have the common decency to leave me alone. Not that you actually give a fuck about me anyway so why don't you do me a favor and just stop." I turned away and wiped my eyes. I needed to get away.

"Courtney?" He called after me. "I didn't know…"

"That is complete and utter bullshit. How could you not have known? I loved you, Duncan. The least you could do was break up with me first before being all over some other girl. That would have been so much better than being lied to." I could feel my face get got and sting with tears that I had suppressed for so long. I felt arms around me and I fell apart.

What did you think? I really appreciate hearing from you guys it makes my freaking week 3
