100 Themes, TDI Couples Style!
Summary: I'm applying the same 100 words to different TDI couples. I'm already working on GeoffxBridgette, TrentxGwen, OwenxIzzy, DuncanxCourtney, EvaxNoah, and JustinxBethxCody. I will do others by request. R&R people!
Disclaimer: I'm an American. I don't own a Canadian show.
1. Introduction
The first time all three met, Justin was silent, Beth was fawning over Justin, and Cody was ogling Gwen.
2. Love
Justin had categorized his and Beth's relationship as love; Cody wondered bitterly if trying to manipulate her into abandoning Lindsay was something someone did when they loved someone else.
3. Light
The light in Beth's eyes died when Justin told the unforgivable lie ("I kind of like your friend Lindsay- could you talk to her for me?").
4. Dark
In the dark, after everyone was asleep, Justin lay awake, waiting for Beth to come back.
5. Seeking Solace
Beth didn't know how Cody even got here, but she was grateful; she needed a shoulder to cry on.
6. Break Away
Beth stopped hanging out with Lindsay, stopped going near Justin- every spare minute she had, she snuck over to the loser's place and stayed with Cody.
7. Heaven
Beth used to think heaven would be in Justin's ams; she realized that, in fact, they were in Cody's.
8. Innocence
Justin watched the hurt spread across Beth's face, and regretted his lie for a minute- but if anything destroyed her naivete about Lindsay, this would.
9. Drive
Justin was driven by his own desires; Cody was driven by what he cared about.
10. Breathe Again
Beth cleared the Justin-sobs from her chest, breathing in Cody's cologne.
11. Memory
The memory of that one statement had Beth begging to join the Screaming Gaffers and get away from (so much more beautiful than me) Lindsay and (lying heartbreaker- I trusted you, I loved you, and you hurt me and smiled while you did) Justin.
12. Insanity (sequel to Annoyance)
Kaleidoscope's overall craziness and her and Eva's mutual hatred of Justin would definitelyhelp Cody in his vengence for what Justin did to Beth.
13. Misfortune
Beth now considered her crush on Justin to be hugely unfortunate.
14. Smile
Beth's smile was, in Cody's opinion, the most beautiful thing in the world.
15. Silence
Beth's silence to Justin's usual "Morning" worried him slightly.
16. Questioning (sequel to Annoyance and Insanity)
Beth's questioning glance to Kaleidoscope's constant references to 'the plan' made Cody want to shut the crazy girl up.
17. Blood
Though no blood fell from her chest after Justin's statement. Beth felt as if he'd single-handedly ripped her heart out.
18. Rainbow
Beth thought that Justin was the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; the beauty and richness and popularity; but Cody was the rainbow, colorful and fun and kinda weird and sweet (and wasn't all that worth more than silly old gold anyway?).
19. Gray
The gray of her braces removed, Justin honestly thought that this girl, with a little alteration, could be beautiful.
20. Fortitude
Justin had the fortitude to lie to her and hurt her to try to help her because he liked her; Cody had the fortitude to tell her the truth and help her mend because he loved her.
21. Vacation
Beth wanted a vacation from all of the hurt that she felt when she looked at her best friend and at her (what could he be defined as now? Heartbreaker? Ex-crush?) teammate.
22. Mother Nature (sequel to Flowers)
When Justin saw Cody laughing and offering Beth flowers to crown her head, he somehow began to despise Mother Nature.
23. Cat
Justin was like a hissing cat, hurtful and scratching; Cody was more like a purring, comforting kitty-cat.
24. No Time (sequel to Hold My Hand and Standing Still)
Cody was dangling over a cliff, held up only by her hand- Justin was behind her ("Beth, come on! Leave him! We'll lose the challenge, and you'll fall off, too!") and her only regret was that there was no time to laugh in his face and telling him that Cody was worth more than some stupid million dollars.
25. Trouble Lurking
If only Justin had gone after her, he could have vanquished the trouble lurking to destroy his claim on Beth.
26. Tears
Beth's tears soaked Cody's shirt as she finally realized that Justin had never cared, and he'd lied to hurt her.
27. Foreign
Justin gaped at the foreign sight of the girl he wanted kissing another boy.
28. Sorrow
The sorrow Justin has caused Beth left a permanent mark on her soul.
29. Happiness
Beth was happy, Justin mused, but in the wrong man's arms.
30. Under the Rain (sequel to Night and Stars)
One night, it rained, and Cody and Beth laughed and ran around and danced, forgetting everything and just having fun.
31. Flowers
Beth didn't know how Cody knew she loved flowers, but here he was, sliding a flower chain onto her head.

33. Expectations
Cody and Beth didn't expect their relationship to be constantly perfect, like Beth had (naively) expected it to be with Justin.
34. Stars (Sequel to Night)
Beth knew every constellation in the night sky; she would always point them out when she and Cody hung out.

Cody slipped; Beth didn't think twice as he fell, sticking out her hand and grabbing his, screaming, "Hold on, Cody! I've got you!"
36. Precious Treasure

39. Dreams
It had been Beth's dream to marry Justin; now it was her dream to be happy and live with Cody.
40. Rated
Beth's song was rated #1; in reality, she and Gwen had equal merit, but Gwen hadn't had her heart broken.
41. Teamwork (Sequel to Hold My Hand, Standing Still, and No Time)
Cody and Beth worked together to get out of the challenge, never letting go of each other's hands.
42. Standing Still (Sequel to Hold my Hand)

43. Dying

With Justin, she wanted to be a woman; with Cody, she could be a girl and a woman and a teen intermittently.

A few light effects, a little decoration, some persuasion with Harold, and Cody could make Beth's arrival at the loser hotel the most magical arrival ever.

Beth had never thought that the hero in her story would be a short tech geek with a gap between his teeth- but that didn't mean she wasn't happy about it.

The annoyance of nobody doing anything about Justin irked Cody; he finally took matters into his own hands.

People classified Justin's interest in Beth an obsession, not love.
72. Mischief Managed (sequel to Annoying, Insanity, Questioning, and Traps)
