Betrayal

Apologize

Chapter 2

Note: Recap from the last chapter...Courtney's staying in New York for the summer; expressed her emotions at a jazz club; got a strange phone call; top secret stuff was stolen; and she just called Duncan. So how's Duncan going to react to Courtney calliing him? Let's find out shall we?

"Duncan it's me. It's Courtney."

"Uh come again?"

"I'm serious Duncan it's really me calling."

"Oh boy...uh...um..."

"Duncan what are you doing? I just want to talk to you. Is that so wrong?"

Is that it? You called me a year after Total Drama World Tour and when we broke up just so you could talk to me?"

"There's more to it then just that Duncan."

"What more could there possibly be to this?"

"Duncan, I...I want to...to...apologize."

"I mean really why did you call me when I already know the...wait excuse me? Did...Did you just say that you wanted to apologize?"

"Yes. I wanted to apologize for everything that I did to everyone, during the competition, and mostly...to you."

"You're apologizing? You're actually apologizing? Apologizing...to me?"

"Yes Duncan. Hard as that may seem I'm apologizing. And I'm serious."

"Wait a minute. What's the catch here?"

"Catch?"

"Yeah Courtney. What's the catch to this? I mean come on. You wouldn't just apologize unless there's a catch to it."

"Duncan there's no catch. I'm really trying to apologize to you right now. Why is that hard to believe?"

"Uh gee, let me think about that. Maybe it's because of everything you did to everyone back on the show."

"Oh yeah? Well what about Heather and Alejandro? Those two did some nasty stuff and everybody forgave them."

"Yeah, but at least they actually 'apologized' to everyone. You on the other hand didn't."

"Duncan please! Look I'm sorry for yelling, but please hear me out okay?"

"Ugh...fine. You've got two minutes. Starting...now."

"Okay then. Um...well yest at first I was angry and wouldn't accept anybody's apology's. I tried to put the past behind me and ignore everyone; but I soon realized that running away from my problems wasn't solving anything. I tried to get my past out of my head, but all I could think about was of you and everyone else. I then headed out and went to a jazz club where I discussed my problems and everything else to a guy named Frankiln. There he got me to express myself through the power of poetry. I just let out what I was feeling through the power of words and emotion."

"And...you got a point to this whole story or what?"

"Ugh! Yes I have a point to this! Sorry."

"Whatever. What is it?"

"My point is...my point is...it's...it's..."

"Are you going to say something or what?"

"Hold on a second please. My point is...it's that..."

"Get on with it already!"

"I'm sorry! It's just that I don't think I really know what my point is."

"You don't know what your...Oh come on! I don't hear from you for a whole year and then you call up out of the blue to apologize and you don't know the point to your apology? What's wrong with you? Do you really want to apologize to me, or is this some kind of joke? I mean do you even mean a word you're saying? Do you even want me to forgive you? Do you want anybody back from the show to forgive you? What is it Courtney?"

"Duncan please I'm sorry! Just hear me out for a second please? I do want to apologize! I do want to make things right! I do want to fix everything that I had done wrong. Just...Just give me a second please?"

"No! No I'm done! I'm done with this Courtney! I'm sick of the way you've been before, and I'm sick of this little sharade!"

"Duncan please! I'm not lying! I'm telling the truth! I..."

"Goodbye Courtney, and don't let me hear from you again!"

"Duncan don't! Please!"

But it was to late. Duncan had already hung up on her.

Courtney just dropped the phone onto the ground and starred blankly into space. Tears started coming down her eyes, and soon she couldn't hold them in any longer. She burst into tears and fell onto the floor. She cried into her hands as her tears came flowing out of her and down her face like a waterfall. She just couldn't believe what had just happened.

How could he do that to her?

How could he think that she was lying to him?

How could he even say those things to her?

She continued to cry into her hands. Her heart was starting to ach from the pain she felt right now. She then moved her crying onto the bed. Where she burst into more tears. She was so heartbroken at the moment that she cried for almost 30 minutes. She would have cried for that long, but she soon became dried out of tears. That and she was getting a headach from all her crying.

So calming herself down and taking in deep breathes, Courtney managed to relax a bit from her dramatic period. Yeah kind of stupid huh? But hey what are you going to do about it? She was depressed and she couldn't help herself. So Courtney climbed into bed, pulled off the covers, and then covered herself under the covers. She grew tired from all that crying she did, and so she just wanted to go to sleep.

Curling up into a ball, Courtney soon manaed to fall fast asleep. She was fast asleep like a baby. Of course she did cry a few times before actually falling all the way asleep.

Sorry if this wasn't a long enough chapter, but that's how I planned it

Yhe next chapter will be longer like the first one

I promise
