I realized there's so much that never aired, so many gwuncan moments we've never seen. So I decided to write my own because well.. I felt like it. So yeah! They range from TDI to TDWT and possibly even beyond.
Stolen Moment Number 1: Starry Nights
"Thought I'd find you here, Sunshine." An all too familiar voice called from behind me. I turned to see my best friend and fellow contestant behind me wearing his usual smirk.
"I knew you were a criminal, but I didn't know you were a stalker too." He chuckled and leaned against the railing of the stone bridge we were on. "You wish I was stalking you. I noticed you didn't show up for dinner so I thought I'd check up on you."
"Touching. Juvie has a heart after all." I replied, actually a bit happy that he cared enough about me to come find me.
"No way, Sweetheart." My heart fluttered a bit. He called every girl petnames, but I liked to think I was special. Ever since this season started I'd been thinking of Duncan differently. Sure he was jerk, but he was my favorite jerk. And I could basically trust this guy with my life. He'd been there for me during this whole crazy 'Trent has an obsession with me' thing.
"What's with you and the stars anyway?" He asked.
I loved stars. They were beautiful and with a whole sky of them I could look and stare and think. Stargazing was when I did most of my deep thinking.
"Stars are great! Constellations, they tell a story. and well, they can be anything you want them to be." I was smiling as I explained, using my hands as I talked. He watched my hands, probably thinking I was just as crazy as Trent.
He walked to the other side of the bridge where I stood. "Anything? So I could just say that that constellation looks like a dick?" He pointed at the the stars which did not at look like one by the way.
I just laughed, "Well it actually has to look like it, Dunc!"
"You said it could be anything!" He raised his arm in protest, "I'm just doing what the lady says." Even with his crude sense of humor and bully like behavior he was hot. It was just his mannerisms and flirtatious comments that dragged me in towards him. Maybe it was dumb teenage hormones, or maybe i was seriously falling hard for this guy.
"The lady meant that you have to imagine it and feel it. Like this, don't you think that looks like a bunny?"
He leaned closer to me, his shoulder brushing mine. Which sent tingles down my arm making me feel fuzzy. Stop. Thinking. About. It. Gwen.
He smirked, "To me it looks like a crap load of stars but if it makes you feel any better I'll say it looks like a bunny." I shot him a glare.
We both stared for a moment. Perfectly content on looking at the stars, lost in our own thoughts, our own fantasies. If only I knew what that delinguint was thinking about.
I decided to break our silence. "Is it just me or does that constellation look like Harold's pancake butt with the spaghetti legs attached, see?" I turned to him with my arm pointed towards the sky.
His teal eyes stared in mine his fist under his chin and he didn't say a word. Huh. He must have really been deep in thought.
"I just gave you the perfect set up for a dig and you leave me hanging!? What's your damage?" I said in a playful tone.
He had a goofy look on his face, "You think Courtney might be looking at the stars right now?" I put my finger in my mouth and pretended to gag, but on the inside I was for real.
"Wow! Who knew you were such a sucker for the A type.?" I laughed, but died on the inside. What he saw in Courtney I'll never know. If I asked why he liked her, he'd say she was 'hot'. It sucked. She didn't even deserve a guy like him..
I grabbed his wrist and he backed up, "Ooh you wanna make something of it?" He punch my arm playfully. I laughed, "You can do better than that."
He chuckled and came closer to me, and gave me a small push to the ground. He was on top of me and I could feel his breath on my face. We stared at each other smiling for a moment. This would be the part where he kisses me. He wouldn't though? Would he? Last I checked he was still gaga for Miss CIT.
After a moment or two he got off of me, rubbing the back of his neck. "Well uh.." Duncan was at a loss for words, and that was a first. But I was too. At least no one was going to see what happened.
"I think I like stargazing now, Sweetheart." He finally said.
"I'm gonna guess that's sarcasm." I said and laughed. At least he wasn't making things awkward after the kiss.
He laughed darkly, "Oh no Gwen. I actually mean it. If it involves making fun of Harold I'm all down for it."
"Nice." I laughed and watched his eyes. They really were nice eyes. and I started blushing fiercely feeling stupid. Being so pale like me, it was obvious of how embarrassed I was. For no reason at all too!
"I love it when you blush, Pasty. It really compliments your white skin." He said with a typical Duncan smirk.
I shoved him, "Shut it, Juvie." Our nicknames. They just made everything seem more real.
"I guess I should be getting off to my trailer to visit all my favorite people." I rolled my own dark eyes.
"I know how much you love them." He said dryly. "I can't stand half the people on this dumb show." He pulled out his knife now and tried carving something into the stone which I knew wasn't going to work out for him.
I nodded, "Seriously Duncan, if you weren't here I think I'd go insane! I'd at least have killed someone already." It was true. My best friend was the only person I could deal with. The rest, they could rot in hell.
"I hear ya, Sweetheart." He just grinned at me.
We exchanged our goodbyes like we did every time we met up in secret like this.
I started walking back to the trailers, trying to avoid keeping my combat boots out of the mud. I turned around to see Duncan carving DxC into a tree. I sighed. How stupid was I to really think he might have wanted to kiss me? Of course he wouldn't! I was Gwen, the best friend, the 'just friends' girl.
Stupid Courtney and her stupid- I didn't even want to finish that thought. I shouldn't be mad at Courtney. I should be mad at myself for never seeing what a great guy he really was. I was the one to blame. I would just have to wait till they broke up. Even then I doubt I'd have the balls to tell him what I really felt. As long as we were friends I could be content.
~0~
Duncan frowned at his carving and put the knife back into the wood, fixing his creation. Little did Gwen know he had just changed the C to a G.
I'm not sure whether to keep this a one shot or add more! Please tell me what you think :D
REVIEWS ARE LOVEEEE!
