EDITED. Can you tell? I sure can!

It would have been a normal night.
Would have.
Courtney's POV~
Let's see, the capital of China is.. Beijing! Capital of France... Paris! The city of love! Capital of capital Australia...
I tapped my fingers on my desk. Um...
Tomorrow I had a geography test of world capitals. My teacher, Mrs. Burrns, didn't even tell us what type of places the test is about! It could be continents or countries, or just famous cities! So, I have to study everything or else I might get a B or something!
Australia... Um. I flipped the note card, Canberra, Australia. Dang it! Okay, Capital of the U.S.; Washington DC!
Just as I grabbed the next note card my phone started ringing, Nothin' On You starting filling the quiet air of my room. I picked up my phone, the Blackberry and looked at the caller ID, Bridgette. I answered it. "Courtney?"
"Yup, what's up Bridge?"
"Me and Geoff are seeing a movie and are wondering if you want to come! Come on! It'll be fun!" Bridgette asked excitely.
"Bridgette..." I complained, "You know we're having that big world capital test tomorrow..."
"What? That's tomorrow? I thought she said it was in a week!" she exclaimed. I rolled my eyes. How can you mix up 'tomorrow' and 'next week'?
"Yeah, it's tomorrow. Well. Another time maybe?" I suggested. I Don't wanna hurt her feeling's.
"No! We have to go tonight! There's free concessions tonight! From 7 to 9! We have to go now! Come on Court!" she begged. I looked at the time; 6:31.
"What movie?" I asked skeptically.
"Date Night! It had some pretty great reviews!" she said with growing excitement.
"I don't know... It's just gonna be me, you, and Geoff right?" NOT Duncan...
"Sort of... Duncan and Gwen are coming but they're seeing a different movie. They're just riding in the same car as us, that's it!"
"Okay... But if you're lying!" I warned.
"I swear! I'm not! They don't want to watch Date Night! They're watching a different movie, you'll barely see them!"
"Alright. So are you going to pick me up, or shall I meet you guys there?"
"We're picking you up, But I'm so happy you're coming Court! Tonight's gonna be so much fun, well, we'll be there in about twenty minutes! You'll be picked up first, kay?"
"Alright, see ya"
"See ya" With that she hung up. I hope I don't regret going.
Wow, a date night, how ironic. But if this turns out to be a double-date thing! I'm gonna kill Bridgette! Getting up from my desk I kept on hoping and hoping Duncan would get sick or something and not come. Walking over to my closet, I wondered what I should wear.
~XxX~
Walking down the stairs I was happy with the outfit I had chosen. I was wearing white 'V' neck that had black belt over it, making the top look five times cuter, leggings that was made out of a material that almost made it look like jeans, and my usual shoes. My hair had a slight wave to it and I had a chic black headband on. Arriving at the bottom of the stairs I checked the time again; 6:46. They should be almost here. "Mom, Dad! I'm going to the movies with Geoff and Bridge! Okay?" I shouted into the kitchen.
"Okay sweetie! Just be home before ten!" My mom replied.
"Alright! Thanks" Right on que I heard a car honk outside, "Bye!" Before I could here them respond I was out the door and walking out to Geoff's car. I opened the back door and hopped in, only to land on someones lap. Oh great!
"Why, hello Princess" Well, good-bye five minutes of a decent ride...
"Uh! I thought I was being picked up first!" I said as I scooted off of him to the other side of the car, and I buckled my seat belt.
"Yeah..." Bridgette turned around to face me from the front seat, "But Duncan was already with us, so we didn't need to pick him up, we just needed to pick up you and Gwen" she turned around so she was forward again
"I usually sit there Duncan" I said glaring at him. "I usually sit there Duncan" he mocked in a girly voice.
"Ugh! You're such a orge" I said rolling my eyes.
"You're such a princess, Princess!"
"You owe me five dollars!" Geoff mumbled to Bridgette.
"Oh! Just shut-up and drive!" she pushed his shoulder. He laughed and started driving. "It'll take about ten minutes to get to Gwen's and then the movie theater, can you handle that Court?" Bridgette teased.
"I can handle it, but I'm not sure about the seven year old next to me" I snapped. Duncan snickered.
"Don't kill each other guy's!" Bridgette said worried. Now I snickered.
"So Duncan. What movie are you and Gwen seeing?" Geoff said trying to make a conversation, not an argument.
"Kick-ass"
I scoffed, "You're seeing that movie?"
"Hell yeah, I'm not watching Date Night" he snickered, "That's for cheesy couples"
"Hey!" Geoff and Bridgette said at the same time with the same offended tone.
"You shouldn't even watch it with them, they're just gonna make out the whole time!" Now that you think about it, that's probably true.
"You guy's wouldn't do that... Right?" I said hopefully. How fun would it be to have to sit next to love-making friends for a hour. SO much fun.
"Of course not Courtney!" Bridgette said sincerely.
"We'll save it for after the movie, right Bridge?" Geoff said seductively. Disgusting! I hate in when couples flirt in-front of me!
Bridgette giggled, "Sure Geoffy-effy!" she squealed. Don't tell me that they're gonna start using baby-talk...
"Alright Bridgey-bear!" UGGH! I groaned.
"Save the love-fest for later!" Duncan said with disgust in his voice Thank you!
"Sorry..." Bridgette said apologetically.
"You guys are just like my aunt and uncle, can't arrest somebody with out bringing the baby-talk towards each other..." Duncan murmured. I laughed, I could just picture that in my head...
"Did you say something dude?" Geoff said confused.
"What are you talking about?" he said slyly.
"Oh, sorry"
I laughed again. "Am I amusing to you Princess?" he teased with his, guess what, smirk. Before I got to make an excuse, Geoff honked. Momentarily, Gwen arrived and opened the door. Only to see that Duncan was there, she looked over on the other side, and seeing me she sighed, "How am I supposed to get in here without going over somebody?"
"Duncan, how about you scoot over and let Gwen sit there" Bridgette suggested.
"No!" I exclaimed, "Then I'll have to sit next to him!"
"Well, then how about you get out so I can get to the middle?" Gwen said annoyed.
"Uh! Why should I-" before I finished my rant Duncan scooted over.
"Just suck it up Drama Queen!" Duncan said as he put on his seat belt.
"Yeah Courtney, it's so obvious that you want him, even Mrs. Burrns knows! When you escorted Duncan to the office yesterday, she totally mocked you guys" I gasped. To think she was my favorite teacher! Uh!
Duncan laughed, "Really?"
"Yeah, Gosh, those teens are such Flirt's" she mocked our teacher, and her accent, "Now, it's hard to ever see Courtney wheen she'z a not blushin'" Bridgette and Geoff laughed. I started to blush.
"Wait, that's not even the funniest part!" Gwen smirked at the thought, "Then she's all like-"
I reached over Duncan and hit Gwen on the shoulder, "Enough!"
"Aww, But I wanna hear what she said" Duncan whined, just to get on my nerves.
"Chill, I'll tell you during previews," Duncan smirked then nodded
"Psst! You wanna hear a secret!" My favorite guy whispered in my ear.
"What?" I said with dripping venom.
"I can see your bra!" he replied. I gasped and looked down, only to have his thumb come up and hit my nose, "Got ya!"
"Ugh! You're so inappropriate!" He just chuckled.
"Uh... So Gwen, why isn't Trent coming?" Geoff said since I was making the atmosphere a bad one.
"He has a gig tonight..." she blushed, "But he said it was a country thing so I come shouldn't come since I hate country music"
"Oh, that's cool, I heard a rumor that you guys broke up..."
"Who told you that?"
"Heather."
"When I get to that devil..."
"Um. Hey look we're at the movies already! And it's only... 6:54!" he said dramatically changing the subject.
"Finally" I said with a roll of my eyes, "Some people don't know what personally space is" I said glaring at Duncan, his feet were pretty much on my side, but I ignored that hoping he won't make a perverted comment. His body was also up against mine, even though Gwen didn't take up much space. I'm really starting to regret coming.
~XxX~
"Three tickets for Date Night please" Bridgette asked sweetly as Geoff pulled out the money. Why is he pulling out money? Isn't it free?
"We have to pay?" I asked dumbly.
"Yeah... It's only free concessions.." Bridgette said. Aww... Shit!
"Um. Then can you pay for mt ticket too? I didn't bring any money." I feel so stupid. IDIOT!
"We have to pay?" I heard someone say on the other side. I didn't have to look over to see who had said that. Duncan.
"Yes Duncan, you think they're gonna give away free everything! The only reason they're giving out free concessions is because they want to make more money with tickets and other junk!" Gwen said with irritation in her voice.
"We only have a dollar left Courtney..." Bridgette said with her eyebrows furrowed. THIS CAN'T NE HAPPENING!
"Duncan, I only brought enough money for me, you're gonna have to sit outside the movie theater"
"For two hours!" he complained.
"How long is this movie?" I asked the clerk. I better not be stuck with that delinquent!
"It's about one hour and twenty-eight minutes, not including previews and that." she said annoyed. I slapped my head on my forehead, oh great!
"Do you guys think you can drive me home?" Please, please, PLEASE!
"I'm sorry, but the movie starts at 7:05... And it's almost seven!" Bridgette sighed, "There's no way we can get you home, come back, get food and drinks, before the movie starts!"
"Yeah. Sorry Court. You're gonna have to wait outside the theater with Duncan" Geoff said while scratching the back of his head.
Noooo! No! NO! I screamed in my head, "I rather walk home!" I complained.
"But it's dark out, and it's getting late. You don't know what type of crazies are out there Court"
"I can take them" I said crossing my arms.
"UH! Just leave already!" The clerk complained. And I'M a drama queen?
"Fine, but you guys owe me!" I said jabbing my finger in Geoff's chest.
"Okay, okay. Just chill" The clerk handed them their tickets and grabbed a walkie-talkie, she mumbled something into it, but we were already walking away so I didn't catch what she walked over to the concessions line, all five lines had about 15 people, not as bad as I thought it would be. We headed over to the line in the middle.
"I'm sorry that you can't see the movie Courtney, I really am! But maybe you can study for that test you were talking about."
"There's a test! When! What class?" Geoff said alarmed.
"There's a test tomorrow about world capitals Geoff" Man, does anybody listen? Gwen and Duncan approached the line next to us, Duncan had his arms crossed and a scowl on his face. Wow, he really is a seven-year old.
"But, I didn't bring my note cards. I'm supposed to be watching a movie in the movie theater!" I'm usually prepared for anything, but hey, give me a break!
"It's going to be okay. So anyways, what are you getting?" Bridgette asked. They always change the subject. The line moved up a little.
"A Fanta and a bag of skittles"
"Oh, grow-up Duncan! It's not my fault you didn't bring any money!" Gwen scolded Duncan, who looked like a seven-year old throwing a fit. I smirked at the scene, but stopped realizing who I looked like. I better not become a smirking Duncan.
"Hmpff!" He sighed, "I wanted to see that movie" Such a brat! The line moved up again.
"Two words: GrowUP" Gwen said, "You're so much like my little brother when he doesn't get his way." she murmured. He rolled his eyes.
"Cool" Bridgette finally said as we moved up. Only seven more people in front of us, Duncan's line had nine because a fat guy made a big order. She didn't try to make any more conversation, nor Geoff did. I noticed that I was the only one who dressed up. Bridgette, Geoff, Gwen, and Duncan were all wearing the usual. I wonder why.
What am I going to do for an hour? Can't leave, sitting in silence is boring, not tired enough to take a nap, don't have arcade money. I sighed What to do, what to do. Both lines moved up again. Only three more people in our line. Five people in their line. "Hey, Courtney. Are you sure that the test is tomorrow? I'm pretty sure it's next week" Geoff said.
"Well, I'm pretty sure it's tomorrow," I said in a irritated tone.
"Whoa, just asking. Just asking." he said as he held his arms up defensively. I rolled my eyes as the people in front of us left with their order.
"Can I have a large blue slushie and a medium popcorn" Bridgette asked politely.
"Make sure that popcorn has a lot of butter, 'kay? I'll have some nachos" Geoff ordered The cashier rasied an eyebrow. Geoff smiled.
"What about you?" he said looking at me with his dull brown eyes.
"Just a medium Fanta with a bag of skittles please"
"Okay, show me your tickets and I'll get your order ready"
"What?" I asked, you need a ticket?
"Free concessions with purchase of ticket, why? Do you not have one miss?" he raised his eyebrow again.
"No" I said sheepishly.
Bridgette looked at me apologetically, "Oh! Here, you can buy something with my dollar!" she gave it to me.
"Thank-you"
"Your total is $2:17" he said while smirking at my dollar. Shit.
"I only have a dollar..." I said while frowning, "What are the individual cost's?"
"95 cents for the skittles, and a dollar twenty two for the drink"
"Give me the skittles" I said as I slammed the money on the counter.
"Thank-you" he said as he got our order ready.
"What do you mean I don't get free concessions if I don't have a ticket!" Duncan said highly irritated.
"Youff goft to halfe a ticket" the braces wearing girl lisped.
"Are you fucking kidding me!" he exclaimed.
"Language!" A mom behind us shrieked as she covered her kids ears.
"No, you'll halfe to pay for your foothd" She has one bad lisp.
"My what?"
"Foothd" she pointed to a box of popcorn.
"Oh, food, couldn't understand you spitty lisp nerd" She gasped and ran to the back crying.
"There goes my popcorn" Gwen said, very enthusiastically. Hear the sarcasm?
"And drink" Duncan added. Smart Alec..
"Oh well, I'm going to my theater, see ya" she left towards he theater. Duncan sighed and came to stand near Geoff.
"Hear ya guys go" said our cashier as he handed us our stuff. Thanking him, we walked over to theatre seven, where Geoff and Bridgette's movie was playing. I walked over to their theater with them, not exactly sure what to do.
"Well. See ya guy's in a hour" They said as they went to the theater.
"Hope it's a good movie" I said coldly. How can they leave me with him? Great friends. When the door closed I turned around and sat on the bench, this is going to be a long night.
~XxX~
"So. Two hours whole to ourselves Princess, I bet you're going to love that" he said as he sat next to me.
"If you so as touch me I will rip off you stupid smirk" I threatened.
"With what? Your lips?"
"UGH!" I put my head back and it banged up against the wall. He laughed at my expense. Jerk I stopped and glared at him, then I checked the time; only three minutes after seven.UGH! This is going to take forever!
"Can I have a skittle?"
"No"
"Why not?"
"Because... I said no"
"Why?"
"Because"
"Because why?"
"BECAUSE!" I shouted.
"Because..."
"Ugh! Just take one!" I shoved the bag into his chest.
"Thank-you" he said as he opened it, "Was that so hard?" I rolled my eyes."Here," he said as he was chewing, he handed me the bag. But I snatched it from his hand.
"Hmpff" I said while I grabbed a handful and tossed them into my mouth. Duncan started laughing, I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at him. Freak...He tried to stop laughing, but after about ten seconds he started laughing again. "Okay! What is so funny Duncan?" Is there some joke I missed out on?
He tried to talk, but only laughs came out, "I-l-li-pff-l-" he kept on 'pff'ing from trying to hold in his laughter.
"Well..." I said starting to get impatient.
"I took out a handful and-pff- licked them, then I grabbed a new one and-pff- put the other ones back-pff-pff- in" he kept on laughing while I sat there with wide eyes, "So-pff- we just inderectly-pff-tongued" he was cracking up now.
I shoved him off the bench. I started wiping my lips, "YOU"RE SUCH A PIG! UGH!" But it's too late, his little Duncan saliva glands are in me, "EWW!" I coughed.
Although he was just cracking up on the floor now, "Seems like-pff-I'm in you Princess!" he clutched his stomach, "Oh, my stomach hurts from laughing!" He stood up.I kept on wiping my mouth, eww, eww, EWW! Was all I kept thinking. Right now I felt several emotions; disgust, anger, despise, sickness, and... Lust... Just on little part of me wasn't grossed out. That was the teenage hormone filled part. When he finally stopped laughing sat back down next to me.
"You owe me 95 cents for some new skittles, I don't want these any more!" I said as handed the bag to him.
"Aww, that's a waste of food, there's nothing even wrong with 'em!" he said as he ate some.
"There was nothing wrong with them," I corrected, "Was"
"Pff, your just jealous that I made the quality go up"
"What? You didn't make them better! You contaminated them!" I screeched. He didn't make them better!
"Nah, I think I made them better" he said while throwing some more into his mouth.
"NO! Licking them doesn't make them any better!" Is he some sort of crazy or something?
"You know what," he smirked, "I think you're jealous that I licked this, and not you" he winked at me.
EWW! "You need help if you think that's true!" I snapped. That'll be true when peanuts can walk!
"YOU need help with your denying problem!" he shot back.
"I'm not denying anything!" I denied, inside my hormones started turning on me, I wonder how soft his lips are?
Ahh! "Okay, then prove that you don't like me, cause that's exactly what you're denying!" But what if I don't want to prove you wrong? I hate hormones, especially teenage hormones.
I turned to face him, "How would I do that?" Aww, look at his eyes! That's such a pretty blue! You rarely see that color! Ugh, my mind is fantasizing him, gross.
"Kiss me," he said as he leaned in, he smells nice.
"Fine!" I grabbed his shirt collar and kissed him, his lips are soft! I closed my eyes, I'm actually enjoying this.
"Courtney! Is that you?"
I immediately pulled away, "What?" My cheeks were burning. Duncan was smirking next to me. In front of us was my cousin Miranda, the brat of the country. Oh no... Miranda looks almost justlike me except she has dark blue eyes and dresses only in Hollister, A&E, Ambercombie, etc, clothing, and she only wears the most expensive shoes. Spoiled describes her. Miranda was the gossip girl of the family, if someone did anything like fall down the stairs, get a boyfriend/girlfriend, or kiss, the whole family would know within ten minutes of it happening. And she's only fifteen!
"Miranda... What are you doing here?" She lives in Detroit! What's she doing here!
"Oh.. I've been staying at Auntie Lorrie's for the week." she said with a smile, then she looked over at Duncan, "But, I didn't know you had a boyfriend" she squealed.
"He's not my boyfriend!"
"Boy toy?"
"No!"
"Sex friend?"
"NO!" I gasped.
"Then why did you smooch him?" she said with a too-wide of a smile.
"I was proving to him that I don't like him!" Wow, saying that out loud doesn't make any sense...
She giggled, "Wow, that makes sense! So what's the relationship between you two?" Why can't she just drop this already!
"She wants me crazy bad, but she is in crazy denial" Duncan with a wide smirk.
"No!" I said, even though its true. Why can't Miranda leave already?
"Okay.. Well see ya around Courtney.." She said as she walked a couple doors down to her theater. I buried my face in my hands, before I can even leave my parents will know, Aunt Lorrie will know, Uncle Hammer, and everybody else!
I groaned, "You know-" he started.
"I don't want to here it!" I said as I took my face out of my hands glaring at the punk sitting next to me.
"I think you liked that kiss"
"Nope" lie
"I think you just lied"
"Nope" lie
"Uh-huh"
"Yeah-huh" lie I lie a lot. No. I deny a lot.
"Your flies open"
"What!" he laughed, I looked down, I'm so stupid, I'm wearing leggings, I pushed his shoulder, "Ugh!"
"You're so gullible!"
"I hate you!" I snarled.
"At least I'm gonna live longer from laughing so much, unlike you Princess, glaring all the time don't help"
"Shut. Up. Or I will shut it for you!"
"With-" I know he was about to say 'your lips?' but a loud voice interrupted.
"And DON'T COME BACK!" A deep voice yelled. We both turned towards thatdirection, a musculant guard threw out a blonde couple.
"Isn't that Geoff and Bridgette?" Duncan asked pointed to them. I gasped and got up.
"Geoff? Bridgette? What did you guys do?" I asked as I ran over to them.
"Apperenlty you can't make out in movie theater's..." Geoff said as he got up with Bridgette.
"Now we all have to wait for Gwen's movie, don't we?" I asked, at least I'm not just stuck with Duncan anymore. I should be happy... Right?
"And STAY OUT!" another voice yelled.
We looked over at a theater a couple doors down and say Gwen and a boy thrown out. "But he tried kissing me, after I told him to get lost and that I have a boyfriend! Why should I get thown out! That could be called sexual harassment!"
"But you punched him in the face and dumped his drink on him!" the voice said, "So leave!"
"Ugh" she said walking away, upon seeing that we're all here she raised an eyebrow and walked over to us, "Your movie was that short?" she asked. How awkward this is...
"We got kicked out to..." Bridgette said embarrassed.
"So then... Do we leave now?" Gwen asked.
"I guess so" Geoff said. And with that we left.
~XxX~
Finally, I'm home! Away from that perevted Duncan. I went to my room, first thing I did was check my phone, I had three new messages.
The first one read:
The Capital test is next week, sorry for any confusion. It's just U.S state Captials.
DeJone High
Oh, so it is next week, I feel stupid. And just U.S capitals, good to know. Good to know I wasted about an hour making note cards for every but the United States.
The second message read:
I like Miranda ;)
Didja see what she did? Oh that's right, you didn't want to hear about it. Too bad for you.
-D
The last message was from Miranda so I looked at it to see what he was talking about. The last message:
It was a picture of me and Duncan... Kissing... Oh no, oh no. She got a picture of that
Oh great, it even had a foreward box on the bottom, I looked to see how many times it had been forwarded, 17 numbers had re-sent it.
Tomorrow's gonna suck...
~XxX~
Yay it's edited and, in my opinion, way better.
