Before you read the story, I was inspired to make this because as I was watching Total Drama World Tour then turned on the radio during the commercials (I hate commercials) to hear 'So Close, So Far' by Hoobastank. The promo for the upcoming episodes showed Duncan and Gwen kissing. I love this couple, I ALWAYS have since day 1, and nothing's gonna change it. The setting is 6 months after the last TD show.
I DO NOT OWN TDI/TDA/TDWT! I wish though... I only wish. -.-"
Duncan's POV
A bright sun rose to bring a shining new morning, it was a happy day, a splendid day to get out of the house. Duncan however didn't think so. Still sleeping soundly in bed, until his mother walked into his room and woke him, "Honey, breakfast is ready. I made steak and eggs." He rubbed his eyes, telling her "Be down in a minute" as he stretched.
I wake up all alone, somewhere unfamiliar.
Been gone so many days, I'm losing count.
When I think of home, I see your face.
I know I have to wait…
He woke in a surprisingly good mood, seeing as how he now has the girl of his dreams as his girlfriend. The only problem was that neither of them had a way for them to hang out or do anything, then that feeling of bliss slowly melted away. He checked his phone; 9:00 am. He decided to text her, greeting her good morning then going to breakfast.
So close, yet so far
It's tearing me apart
What I would do to be there with you
So close yet so far
It's tearing me apart
What I would do to be back with you
Gwen's POV
Gwen was eating a bowl of Count Chocula's and instantly jumped to the sound of her phone playing 'Stolen', and instantly knew it was Duncan. She opened her phone to read her text. She instantly melted.
I miss hearing your laughter
And all the little things
Forgotten what it's like to hold you
Cause where I am right now so unforgiving
It's numbing everything
She could practically hear him tell her this.
So close, yet so far
It's tearing me apart
What I would do to be there with you
So close yet so far
It's tearing me apart
What I would do to be back with you

She held her phone close to her rapidly beating heart. giggling at his text, she WILL see him. She texted him back.
Duncan POV
After he was done, he placed his dishes in the sink. He heard his phone ring 'Until the Day I Die' and instantly looked to his phone.

He had to find a way to get there. He just had to! Thinking of a way, his eyes stumbled across his old motorcycle he forgot he left in the garage. He smiled, "See you, Gwen"
We're So close, yet so far
It's tearing me apart
What I would do to be there with you
So close yet so far

Gwen's POV (3 hours later)
She was sketching in her book when her phone rang again. This time Duncan actually called her. "Hey babe, could you go outside your house and see if there's a motorcycle outside?" She answered confusingly. "Yeah, why?" Walking down the stairs, she still wondered what he meant. He replied "Just do it, please" She got to the door and opened it, to find a tall man with piercings, and a green mohawk, he hung up. "DUNCAN?" he replied, "Hey baby." smiling as she jumped at him, tackling him down. They both laughed until he lifted his head to kiss her.
I promise,
It's tearing me apart
No matter how far away I go I'll come back for you
I promise
Its tearing me apart
What I would do-
