A story about Duncan and Courtney. This chapter might seem useless and odd but it will make more sense when I finish the next 2 chapters.

He finally found the courage. 17 years later he final asked for it. He asked Bridgette and Geoff for the letter left by his father 17 years ago. Duncan had given it to Bridgette and Geoff for safe keeping and for when he would be ready to finally open it up and read it.

Geoff: "Are you sure you want the letter? I mean theres no need to read it if your not ready you know."

Duncan: "Yeah I'm Sure, I feel that I can handle it"

Bridgette: "Would you like us to leave you alone?"

Duncan: "No you can stay I don't think I wanna be alone right now."

He cracked the seal of the crescent and opened the envelope. He couldn't believe that he was doing usually he isn't that nervous about reading a letter. But after 17 years he couldn't wait any longer. He had to know what it said. He needed and desperately wanted answers about his parents deaths.

He took a very deep breath and opened the envelope. In it was four pictures. One of him as a baby it was taken about an hour after he was born. He looked at it for a few seconds and but didn't think much of it. He passed it on to Geoff and Bridgette.

Bridgette: "You were so cute as a baby"

Geoff: "Yeah but what happened?"

Duncan:"Hey shut up dude"

The second picture was one of this mother and father together. It was a wedding picture. They looked very young and happily in love.(He was very choked up by this photo)

Bridgette: "Your mother was a very beautiful woman. You can see how much your parents cared about each other in this picture."

The third was one just of his mother. She couldn't of been no older than twenty two. She was just sitting there on a tree stump with a big smile on her face. It said on the back that it was from the summer they went camping together. The day he proposed to her. I've seen pictures of her before. But not like this. She looks so natural and happy he thought to himself. He can't help but look at it for several minutes.

Geoff: "Yo Duncan you okay dude?"

Duncan: " Yes yes I'm Fine just got lost in the moment that's all"

Bridgette: "She just looks head over heels in love. I can't believe how gorgeous those intense eyes are in this photo" (Geoff and Duncan nodded in agreement)

The fourth and final photo just left Duncan completely speechless. He was at a lose for words. He proceeded to put his hand over his mouth in pure shock. He couldn't hold back the tears any longer. Bridgette walked over and consulted him the best she could.

It was his father it was taken just hours before he passed away. He was sitting up in a hospital bed looking just horrible. His face was a chalky white. His blue eyes where just lifeless they were void of any hope at all. He looked like a shell of a man. He couldn't believe it. People always told him his father was a great guy, full of energy and life. In away Duncan can finally see why his father left him so many years ago...

Just bear with me people. I swear it'll make total sense and surprise a bunch of you when you see the angle I'm going with on this story.
