sorry for not updating sooner. I've had some summer homework to finish and i'm pretty much a procrastinator :/ I always wait till the last minute .
this also takes place during beach blanket bogus after the surfboard challenge . after this i think i'm going to do some tdwt ;)
"Remind me again why were going back into this freezing set?" I questioned. Duncan just smirked as he leaned against the pool. "Because we hate those crazy people." I couldn't argue with that, but I was seriously cold.
"You do remember that there's sharks in there, right?" I stifled a laugh as Duncan quickly jumped away from the shark infested tank. Chris really is a creep for bringing those things back.
I shivered, "Damn it's cold. Can someone please turn up the heat!?" I exclaimed. He put his arm around me grinning from ear to ear, "You know it would be warmer if you took your clothes off and we-" I chuckled and covered his smirking mouth, "Shut it you perv! What would Courtney do if she heard you say that?"
Duncan removed his arm and I was left with an exposed feeling, almost craving his touch. "She'd probably kick my ass. But it'd be worth it just because of the look on your face." I blushed a bit.
"Pasty's blushing." He chanted. "Jerk." Was my sinngle worded reply. Sometimes he just left me.. unable to think of a snarky comeback. I was unsure if his teasing meant that he liked me or if he just liked to play around with me like I was just any other girl. I over analyzed everything he says and most of the moments where I thought he was into me was just hopeful wishing.
He inched closer to me and I could feel his breath on my face. "You like it when I tease you, I know it."
I wanted to kiss him so badly. At this point I knew I liked him, there was no avoiding the question any longer. Forever I had kept my Duncan feelings locked away. I liked Trent. duncan was just Duncan, no extra special feelings. Duncan was also taken. But there was no Courtney for miles..
"Favorite color?" I blurted, trying to avoid my temptations.
He raised his pierced eyebrows, "What? Uh Green I guess. Why are you asking me this?"
I shrugged sheepishly. "Er no reason at all just wondering."
"And what would yours be, darling?"
"Midnight blue." it was just a color I'd always had an attraction to.
"Favorite band?" Duncan questioned.
"Gothic Mind Explosion. Ugh, but I've never been to a concert." I frowned, remembering when I actually got tickets and got really sick and couldn't go.
He smiled at me, "We'll have to change that, sweetheart."
"Okay. Um.. Worst job?" I laughed.
He rolled his eyes, "I once had to volunteer at a daycare. Let's just say this, i'm scarred, absolutely scarred."
I started cracking up. "Oh God! I can't even imagine you with kids!" I was clutching my side and enjoying the thought of Duncan coloring with little toddlers. "Mine had to be when I worked at a petting zoo. It was absolute torture. The smell." I held my nose just recalling the rancid smell of goat poop.
Now it was his turn to laugh at me. "I bet you're great with animals, Sunshine."
"I actually have two lizards. But I'm not a fan of things with fur."
Duncan got a far away look in his eyes. "I had a dog named Petey once. But he ran away to a farm."
"Uh ran away? I'm pretty sure he died. Isn't that what parents say to kids to I don't know soften the blow?" Poor Duncan. But his pained face was actually quite comical.
"No! Not Petey."
"There there." I pat his head awkwardly.
He switched back to his normal self within seconds. "Sweetheart, You're making me feel like a dog now. But I'm honestly enjoying it."
"Right. So.. awkward confession?"
He shivered and looked around, contemplating what to say. "I've never built a snowman."
"Really? Haven't like all kids." It was strange actually.
'Yeah. my parents didn't do that crap with me." His voice cracked. And I thought for a second if Duncan maybe didn't have the best childhood. But I thought it'd be best if I didn't bring it up. I didn't want to embarrass him or anything.
I pointed to a small pile of slushy snow. "We could make one."
"Eh it'd be pretty shitty and small."
"But it's still a snowman."
He picked a small clump up, "If it makes you happy, Sunshine."
I just rolled my eyes as we made the tiniest most crappiest snowman I've ever seen in my life.
i feel like this chapter sucked. :P Sorry. I can honestly promise a better one next time.
Reviews are appreciated.
