1-The Return of...

The crowded cafeteria was jam-packed with students, varying from freshmen to Senior's. The food ques were bustling with the hungry teens, waiting, impatiently, for their midday grub. Shouting and screaming is coming from all over the place. Friends calling to one and other. Arguments breaking out. The football team being their usual ass-like selves.

In a secluded corner, a small group of people sat round a table, chatting quietly amongst themselves. At least they were until another friend came running over. The green-haired punk dodged in and out of the crowd, pushing and shoving to get to his destination. When he arrived, he sank into a seat beside his girlfriend and looked like he was about to slam his head on the table.

"Kill me!" He yelled. "Someone just plunge a knife into my heart and kill me!"

"Okay." His girlfriend answered. She was a very beautiful girl. Tanned skin and matching mocha colored hair, picture perfect. "What's wrong?"

"My life is wrong!" Duncan continued to screech, not even looking up at the others.

"Dude!" Geoff shouted, pushing his beige cowboy hat out of his eyes. "Calm down, it can't be that bad, whatever it is." Duncan shot his best friend a 'Yes it is' look, before shoving his head back into his hands.

"Please, don't leave us in suspense any longer." Gwen added, with an eye roll to show she really didn't care. Duncan sighed and banged slipped his head onto the table, folding his arm's beneath his face to comfort the blow.

"It's my cousin." He said, but it ame out slightly muffled.

"What about your cousin?" The blond surfer girl asked, trying to get a bit more information out of Duncan. The delinquent didn't answer immediately. The table was in silence, waiting for his answer.

"She's moving here!" He finally blurted out, bringing his head out of his arms, only to slam it back down. Everyone at the table started laughing. They had been expecting some long, ranty story, anything but that.

"What's so bad about that?" Trent asked, flipping his sleek, black hair out of his eyes.

"It is, my cousin is PURE evil." Duncan protested.

"She can't be that bad, Duncan." Courtney said, placing a reassuring hand on his back. A trick she had learnt at CIT camp, to get someone to cheer up.

"When is she coming?" Bridgette asked, eager to meet the new girl.

"She's already here." Duncan explained. "She started this morning, and I'm he unlucky person who has to show her around." The group gave Duncan a funny look.

"Where is she then?" Trent piped up, seeing as she wasn't around. Duncan took a long look around the cafeteria, then stopped and stared at the entrance.

"See that girl." Duncan pointed a finger over to the double doors. "The one looking around."

"The one walking over here?" Geoff inquired.

"That's her." Duncan turned and ducked his head back into his arms.

"She doesn't look evil." Gwen told them, whispering as Duncan's cousin was growing nearer.

"Neither does Darth Vader, but he is." Duncan muttered from beneath his arms.

No one saw that the girl had approached the table fully. She had tanned skin like Courtney's, and long hair that reached just past her chest. Her illuminant blue top lit up the room around them, as her black jeans just brightened it up more.

"Duncan." The girl said his name sweetly. "I've been looking all over for you." The punk groaned into his sleeves before picking his head up and smiling at his cousin.

"Well, you found me." He turned to his friends and shot them a 'I warned you' look.

"Aren't you going to introduce me?" The girl asked, looking happily at her cousins six friends.

"I was getting to that."He snapped back. "Taylor, this is Courtney, Geoff, Bridgette, Gwen and Trent, guys, this is my cousin, Taylor." Duncan pointed to everyone as he said their names.

"Hey." Taylor waved to the group, and they all smiled back. "Are you going to finish showing me around?"

"I wasn't planning on it."

"Sure he will."Courtney interjected, budging Duncan towards his cousin.

Duncan and Courtney were walking up the pebbled lane, hand-in-hand. They were heading towards Courtney's house. Duncan usually walked his girlfriend home after school. Duncan didn't have a car and Courtney usually skived a ride off one of her friends in the morning to avoid bringing her own car. The couple enjoyed being in each others company for longer. Most of the time, anyway.

"Your cousin is." Courtney stopped to think of the right words. "Not so evil."

"Wait till you get to know her." The delinquent mumbled, looking away from his girlfriend. The two continued to walk in silence for a few moment's, before Courtney thought of a conversation starter.

"So, what are we doing tonight?" She asked, hoping they could finally get some alone time together.

"We? Sorry, Princess, but I have plans." Duncan told her, smirking. Courtney stopped walking to turn to her boyfriend. She wasn't impressed.

"Again? You never have time for me." The brunette tried to use her 'I love you' voice to persuade Duncan to change his plans, but when he didn't say anything she gave up on that way,and raised her voice.

"Are you seeing someone else?" Courtney snatched her hand away from Duncan's grip. "Are you cheating on me?" She accused.

"No." Duncan placed a kind hand on his Princess' cheek. "No, it's nothing like that. I promise." He leaned in for a kiss, but Courtney avoided is lips, pulling his hand away from her face.

"Then what is it?" She asked. "What is so important that it can't wait, huh?" Duncan looked down to his shoes, he knew he couldn't tell her the truth, she wouldn't understand. "What I thought." Courtney looked away from Duncan too, only she did it to hide the tears starting in her eyes. "Maybe this relationship isn;t going to work out after all, bye, Duncan." Courtney said, walking away from the spot where Duncan still stood. It was pointless for him to call after her, she would only ask for something Duncan couldn't give her, the truth.

A/N: What do you guys think?

I will be honest with you, not all of the dialogue belongs to me. My friend Chloe (Yeah, we have the same name) has this series on youtube (Chloeiam3, heard of it? If not, check her out.), and we were talking the other day about how I love to write stories, and she said that it would be awesome if I turned her series into a story. So, here we go. This is for you Chloe. =] Apart from the fact I changed Chloe's name to Taylor, because otherwise it would be like putting myself in a story, TACKY!

You have to review and tell me if you want me to continue, otherwise I won't.

Well, hope you enjoyed, please review.

Love, ChloeRhiannonX
