She was crushed. Crying on the steps leading to the girls' trailer, her knees against her chest, arms tucked around them, head down. She was crying softly. The only people that could make this stupid show actually bearable were now gone. She had just said goodbye to her eccentric friend, Lashawna. Everyone was gone, leaving her with queen bitch and the A-list psychopath. She felt alone, well, almost.
She perked up at the sound of footsteps behind her. She looked up to see a punk with a green Mohawk and a few piercings. One thing that always stood out about him to her was his startling teal eyes. He sat down on the steps with her, his cocky smirk fading slightly.
"Hey sunshine, you alright?" he asked, his blue eyes letting Gwen know he was concerned. He was the only person that could make her laugh just by looking at her with his smug smile. She couldn't help but giggle a little. He was her best friend, and in that moment, she couldn't believe they had only known each other for two seasons of this crappy show. It felt like they had been friends forever, knowing what seemed like each and every detail about the other's lives.
"Hey Duncan, it's just, I feel like everyone is gone and now I'm stuck to fight off bitch one and bitch two. I mean, this show is bad enough with its crazy stunts and psychotic host! But now, all the people I was able to trust are gone, except for you." Gwen looked into his eyes and wiped away what would hopefully be her final tear.
"You're right sunshine, I couldn't imagine going through this show without my partner in crime!" he smirked and winked at Gwen. She couldn't help but blush every time he called her sunshine. She was practically the polar opposite! She tried to hide her face and quickly focused his attention on the conversation.
"Speaking of crime, Juvie, what shall we snatch tonight?" she whispered to him, looking around at the numerous cameras that surrounded the area.
"I have just the thing…" Duncan replied with an evil smirk plastered upon his face.

"Haha! That was amazing! How did you know where he kept all his beer?" Gwen smirked taking a sip of her half empty bottle.
"I have my ways…" I smirked evilly, taking a swig of my own half empty bottle. They weren't enough to get anyone drunk, but they did take the edge off.
When we first came in, she told me that if we got caught on camera, that would be the end. I just laughed and, having already downed a whole beer, I took of my shirt and threw it over the camera. I then found the volume switch and turned it to mute. As I turned around, I noticed Gwen blush slightly and turn away. She grabbed another beer and downed half the bottle! I took a seat on the counter and Gwen sat in the chair, leaning it back on two legs. We talked for what seemed like hours, eating chips, drinking beer. We even played a quick game of truth or dare.
"Alright, pasty, truth or dare?" I questioned, getting a little woozy. We decided to stop drinking, knowing we both reached a good limit.
"Hmmmm… How about truth," she replied, a smug smile growing across her face.
"Alright, do you want to get back together with Trent?" I regret the words coming out of my mouth as soon as I say them.
"Well, honestly? Not really… I mean, he's sweet but it's like we have nothing in common and he was always worried about me, going into challenges, like I was a helpless puppy." Gwen reveals, ending with a sigh. For some reason, her answer made me really happy. I don't know why, she's my best friend! I want her to be happy. "Anyways, truth or dare, Juvie?" She brought me back, changing the subject away from her and Trent.
"I pick, truth," I was really comfortable, I was laying back on the table with my hands under my head.
~Gwen's POV~
"Are you honestly happy to be with Courtney?" I asked, too late realizing how my voice had a slight edge.
"I was, last season, but now it seems like all she does is yell at me and make lists. She is starting a list about things to change about me! She already has like 42 things on that list! And, in a way, I feel like she's stringing along the relationship just so she has a better chance at winning the million, like I'm some sort of alliance!" he explained to me. I know I shouldn't be happy he is losing his lust over Courtney, but something inside me just made me happy about it all. A thought did cross my mind though, as we left the confessionals. Do I like Duncan?! I shook my head, entering the girl's trailer, No, I couldn't! He's my best friend and he's with Courtney!
I slowly climbed into bed and wrote down my thoughts of the day in my diary, slowly falling asleep.
So, how was my first chapter to my first story? I know, in a lot of ways it sounds like some of the stories already out there, cause that's where I got my inspiration… But please review, I like criticism and tell me what you think should happen! It might help inspire me to build up a more elaborate story;)
Hehe, well review and I'll continue soon!
Bye Bye!
