Crush
GwenxTrent sonfic. One shot. Song: Crush, by David Archuletta. This is my first songfic, so it might suck, but if you don't like it, don't read it! The story takes place at the end of the second episode (after the campers do the insane cliff dive and Ezekiel leaves).
Italics are thoughts/song.
Regular writing is Gwen's POV.
Bold is author's notes.
Disclaimer: I do not own TDI or Crush
I was sitting in my cabin, thinking about the day. I really hate Heather. Mostly everyone on the island sucked… except for him. I sighed. I knew I was supposed to be all goth and not care about anyone else, but Trent was just such a great guy…
I shook my head. What was I thinking? I can't have a crush. I decided to go for a walk to clear my mind.
As I walked past the confession cam, I heard something… was it… singing?
Confession Cam:
Trent is playing his guitar.
*END*
I walked up to the door. I raised my hand to knock, but… I recognized that voice. It was Trent. I listened to the song.
I hung up the phone tonight 'Cause the possibility
Something happened
for the first time, deep inside
It was a rush, what a rush
That you would ever feel the same
way about me
It's just too much, just too much
Why do I keep running from the truth? Do you ever think when you're all alone
All I ever
think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized
And
I've just got to know
All that we can be, where this thing can go?
Am I crazy or
falling in love?
Is it real or just another crush?
"Who is this song about?" I thought to myself. "It can't be about me… but maybe…"
Has it ever crossed your mind
Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are
you holding back like the way I do?
'Cause I'm trying and trying
to walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
Goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
When we're hanging, spending time girl, are we just friends?
Is
there more, is there more?
I wish. I wish, more than anything in the world, that there was more.
Do you ever think when you're all alone
See it's a chance we've gotta take
'Cause I
believe that we can make this into something that will last
Last
forever, forever
All
that we can be, where this thing can go?
Am I crazy or falling in
love?
Is it real or just another crush?
I never stop thinking about you. From the first time I saw you… I had a crush on you.
Why do I keep running from the
truth? Do you ever think
when you're all alone Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are
you holding back like the way I do?
'Cause I'm trying and trying
to walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
Goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized,
so mesmerized
And I've just got to know
All that we can be, where this thing can
go?
Am I crazy or falling in love?
Is it real or just another
crush?
Are you
holding back like the way I do?
'Cause I'm trying and trying to
walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
This crush ain't goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
Goin'
away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
Goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
Goin'
away-ay-ay-ay-ayy
"What was that all about?" I thought. "I know for sure that song isn't about me… probably about Lindsay. She is the cutest girl here… but I saw her look at Tyler like that…"
While I was thinking, I didn't realise the song was over. The guitar stopped. I ran into the woods and peeked out from in between the trees. I saw him walk away. I wanted to call out, but… I wasn't sure if he actually knew I existed.
After checking one last time to make sure Trent was gone, I ran over to the confession cam. I walked in and closed the door.
Confession Cam
"Who was that song about?" asks Gwen. "Or was it just a song…?"
*END*
I walked out and almost ran into Trent. He smiled. "Hey."
I blushed like crazy. "Hi." I answered.
"Did you hear my song…?" he asked me. He looked a little embarrassed.
I blushed some more. "Um… yeah, I heard it, but I don't have to tell anyone if you don't want me to. If it's private or something-" he cut me off by putting his finger over my lips.
"Stop it." He chuckled. "You're babbling."
"Oops, sorry." I tried to say, but it ended up coming out like "Mmff orry."
He laughed and took his finger off my lips. "Do… do you want to know who it was about? My song, I mean." He blushed.
"Ok, sure." I was almost positive he wasn't going to tell me it was about me, so I kind of tuned out. I didn't want to know who his "crush" was.
"It's about… you."
I ran into the confession cam.
Confession cam:
"It's about ME!" says Gwen. " Are you kidding? There's 10 other girls he could have picked… and it was me??"
*END*
I walked out calmly. "Sorry. Just needed to say something."
"Um… yeah… I kind of heard you." He chuckled again. "Am I too lame for you?"
"Well… actually, I thought it would kind of be the opposite. You're 'Mr. Cool.' " I said.
He mulled this over for a bit. "Really? When I saw you, I thought you were the coolest thing I've ever seen."
I blushed again. What was it with me and blushing tonight? I pretended not to care. "You don't have to pretend to be nice to me."
He looked astonished. "Why would I do that? Everyone here likes you."
"Oh sure, I'm the mean, scary goth girl that everyone loves." I said, rolling my eyes.
"I'm serious." He thought for a bit. "Do you want to… go for a walk."
"Sure!" I caught myself. "I mean, whatever." (A/N: I know this is just like the episode "Not Quite Famous," but I just ran out of ideas :P)
We walked down to the dock and sat down. Trent pulled out his guitar. He started playing his song again. When he was finished, I asked him what he called it.
He smiled and said, "I call it… Crush."
