Hey Guyz! Chapter 3 :)! Enjoy
Chapter 3
Courtney
I feel flustered as I lock myself in the stall door, hiding from my troubles. I know Sky followed me in to the bathroom. She's okay, for a freshman.
"Courtney? Are you in here?" Sky calls out. I sniff, letting my guard down and opening my stall door.
"Yea." I mutter. Sky walks over to me and hugs me, not a lot of people have the courage to do that, trust me.
"Are you okay?" She asks. I try to nod, but it hurts to move.
"Trent was right, we only started dating to make Gwen and Duncan jealous. And I just humiliated my self in front of the entire school." I cry.
"Not the entire school, I was the only freshman. And besides, your a cheerleader, your the class president! No one is anything but afraid of you!" I try to smile. All my life I've been uptight and bossy. My brother and sister where feared by everyone, and so where my parents. Both my parents and my siblings are now successful and well respected in their career fields, and if I ever want to upstage my siblings, I have to be bossy.
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up. See you at practice." I wipe the running mascara from my face and stumble out of the bathroom. The bell rings and my fellow students flood out of the cafeteria. I try to forget the looks they give me, just like the looks they gave me almost one year ago.
It was a cool October night, Courtney is wearing a flowing pink silk dress, holding Duncan's hand. She smiles at him but receives a small glance in her direction. Well that was cold. The homecoming dance was the biggest night in Courtney's life, and she wasn't going to let her non interested boyfriend ruin it. She was bearably able to get him to wear a tux! Gwen Adams, the weird goth girl Duncan hangs out with, walks onto the dance floor, wearing a short black dress and fishnet tights. Duncan lets go of Courtney's grip to talk to the goth girl.
"Duncan! Hello, I'm your date here!" Courtney shouts above the music. Duncan stops and turns towards her.
"I'm just going to go say hi to my friend, mother." He snaps. The couples dancing around them stops and stare.
"What did you just say to me?" Courtney shouts, causing everyone on the dance floor to stop.
"I said you don't control me. I'm my own person." Duncan says, not a sign of fear on his face.
"Whatever, come on let's dance." Courtney saunters on to the dance floor, until she realizes its still silent. "Duncan. Hello!"
"Sorry princess, no." Duncan walks out of the school, leaving Courtney behind.
Trent
I was pissed. So pissed I walked straight out of the cafeteria after the jocks dumped me. I go to the only place I can think of, the music room. Mrs. Nelson, the music teacher went on leave this month cause her husband has cancer, so the room is silent and dark. I flip on the lights and find myself strumming on a random guitar almost instalyly.
They say you only have summer baby
Well that's a bummer
I soon realize that this is the song I wrote for Gwen the summer before high school. I remember asking her out, even if I hadn't talked to her since the fifth grade science fair...
it's June first, a very special dance for eighth graders is tomorrow night, and Trent doesn't have a date. In between fifth and sixth period, he finds himself in front of Gwen Adam's locker, who now has chopped off her braid and added more real streaks to her black hair. Trent adjusts his camo tee shirt and makes sure his jeans aren't sagging. Trent turns the corner, and Trent decides to ask her right there.
"Hey Gwen, can I ask you something?" Trent calls. Gwen turns towards Trent, no sign of emotion.
"Sure, what is it?" She is now in front of him.
"Uh, I was wondering, do you want to go to the dance with me?" Trent asks. Gwen smiles, and nods, blushing.
"Yea, sure." They both smile at each other and turn their separate ways.
I feel emotions swirling inside of me as I remember this. Counting to nine in my head, I flip off the lights and wait for the bell to ring.
Kinda short chapter. Courtney fans plz don't hate, I know I made her kinda mean, but she will change at the end of this fan fic.
