2) Duncan

I wake up late, my head pounding painfully. I grin to myself, remembering the crazy party Geoff threw last night. Man, that was awesome. I went with Gwen of course. I picked her up at around 9:00pm and we headed to Geoff's place. It was a massive pool party and it was just crazy. There was like a ton of alcohol as well so that helped too. Of course me and Gwen just sloped off somewhere and chatted, nice and friendly. I sighed. Just the way I like it between us. Nice, calm and simple. I'm just happy to be away from Total Drama. I smirked. Never again. My head pounded once more. I groan and slump my head against my pillow. I was just about to fall asleep again when my mom knocks on the door and peers in. She sighs. "Why on earth are you still sleeping Duncan? Its past midday. Get up. Oh and there's a letter for you. And read it, don't just throw it to the side. It could be important". She threw the envelope at me and I caught it, sighing. As she closed the door I could see a sly grin forming on her face. Huh.

I peer at the envelope and find its already been opened. I frown. My nosy mom. I got out the letter and tossed the envelope across the room. I scan it uneasily and my heart almost skips a beat.

It's from Courtney. I gulped, my eyes wide.

But... it can't be. Since when did she get so mushy? She's saying all this stuff like she loves me and she's actually...hurting. She says she misses me. Wow. Never thought I'd hear her say that. An image of her forms in my mind: her flawless mocha skin, her clear, sweet ( and annoying) voice. They way her nose scrunches up when she's angry or I do something wrong.

But her eyes... Her eyes were something else.

They were dark, glittering black diamonds. Luring me in with just one glance and I was helpless. They bore into me and just from her eyes I knew what Courtney was thinking. Her beautiful eyes like the shimmering night sky... I feel a lump forming in my throat and i shook my head. Man, what was this girl doing to me? I haven't spoken to her in over 2 months and yet she still has this impact on me? Wow. I finished reading the letter. She asked me to write back. I smiled weakly. She wants me to write back? Fine I will. Just don't expect me to get all mushy. I fished pen and paper out drawer and began to write.

Dear Courtney,

So you miss me, huh? I knew you would. Just couldn't resist me could you? Well I guess I couldn't resist you just that little bit either. I don't know what there is to talk about. Like you said, there was an us, but there isn't anymore. We just weren't ready for each other. Simple. I guess I know what you mean by this closure thingy. But I'm not admitting anything so don't get wrong. It doesn't matter anymore Courtney. Everything has been said and everything has been done. I'll never forget you. Mostly for bad reasons but I guess there's some good in there as well. For the past 2 months its been a blur. Flying through senior year and parties and relationships and all that crap. I've tried to keep you out of mind but here you are, popping right back in my life again. I feel like i've been through war and back which is crazy because its only been 2 months. Shows how much I've missed you. So now I want to be FREE and move on, Courtney.

I can't say I don't want you to stop talking to me because I've learnt my lesson from saying that to you on Total Drama, so maybe we could keep the relationship stuff on a low for a while?

I guess you want me to say I love you now huh?

Well... You're just going to have to wait for that.

Anyway, gotta go,

Duncan

I sighed, letting the pen drop out of my hand. My eyes glistened over. I shook my head. I'm not crying over Courtney. No Way. I get dressed and leave the house making my way towards the post office. I've got to meet Gwen so might as well post the letter on my way.

I grab the letter from my pocket, putting the letter in the post box, not giving myself enough time for hesitation. I glanced up ahead of me and saw Gwen. I knew it was her from the bright teal streaks in her hair. I smiled and jogged up to her. She jumped as I placed my arm around her shoulders. "Hey babe. You're looking especially pasty today".

She smirked and shoved me playfully. "Not so bad yourself. You're eyes are red. Have you been crying?" She smirked again.

My heart beat increases and my eyes widened. I calmed again when she punched me lightly in the arm. I led her towards the mall. "Well wouldn't you like to know princess?"

Gwen looked up at me, her eyebrows raised. "Um, Princess?" I stiffened realising what I just said. Damn it. Why'd I say that? Screw you Courtney!

"Um, yeah! I thought it suited you". I shrugged it off lightly. Gwen rolled her eyes. "Weirdo".

I smirked. "Yep. But you love me anyway". She punched me lightly in the arm and rolled her eyes. "Whatever".

Sooooo guys what did you think? I don't think it was that good. Screw you writers block! Anyway i'm open to ideas about courtney's reaction and blah blah blah so keep reviewing!

Love Peace Happiness
