A/N: Mwahahaha I'm baaaackkkk. Ok sorry about that. Well here is the new chapter as promised... Now I know I said there would be DxC in this one... but there isn't really and I'm sorry. I swear that the next chapter will have DxC. I promise! I just didn't want to squish everything into one chapter and make it seem rushed. Also in response to one of my reviews (thanks :D) I will put some of DxG FRIENDSHIP (I put that in capitals in case anyone was thinking romance. Sorry but I'm a DxC girl all the way) in the next few chapters, although I tried to incorporate it into Gwen's thoughts. Once again thanks to all who review... I know this may sound really lame but the reviews really make my day, and if you want me to add something I will try my hardest to do that. So thanks. Now on with the chapter... R&R. :D

Disclaimer: Same as previous chapters... honestly it is not gonna change.


What have I gotten myself into?


To say Courtney was uncomfortable was an understatement… She had accepted that with nothing else to wear she had to grin and bear it however…

"It's so different…" Courtney murmured. "I hardly recognise myself."

The CIT did have a point. The tight gray tank top showed off her curves along with, to Courtney's dismay, some cleavage. The skirt was short, and the black leggings underneath gave it a kind of rocker girl appeal. It was a world away from her normal 'preppy' appearance.

"Well I think you look great Court." Bridgette exclaimed.

"Yeah Courtney. It looks really cool. It totally suits you. You should wear stuff like this more often."

"You think Gwen?" Courtney looked at her reflection once again. They are kinda right. It looks good…

"Totally. And I'm sure Duncan will appreciate the change too." Gwen chuckled. Oh shit. She is going to scream her head off now… 5,4,3,2,1

Courtney's face went bright red. She turned quickly mumbling about how she didn't have a choice in the matter, and wouldn't do anything to please Duncan.

Well that was unexpected…

Bridgette and Gwen did they best not to burst out laughing at this poor argument. However they were shocked that Courtney hadn't yelled.

Maybe she is taking my message about not yelling to heart…

"Well Court we aren't finished yet." Bridgette chuckled when she saw the CIT's confused expression.

"Yeah Courtney. Seeing as you are wearing different clothes… we thought we might as well go all out and change your hairstyle too." Gwen grinned.

"I don't know guys. I mean…"

"We aren't taking no for an answer. Trust us. You will look great." Bridgette said.

Courtney looked between the two and sighed in resignation.

"I don't have a say in any of this do I?"

"Nope!" The two girls supplied.

"Didn't think so."


Twenty minutes later and the girls were done. Courtney's hair had been pulled into a high ponytail, with a few layers framing her face. They decided not to put any make-up on her, seeing as the CIT didn't trust them enough for Gwen to apply eyeliner. The hair along with the new clothes and her regular wedged sandals made Courtney a whole new person. Gone was the uptight, bossy CIT, and in her place was a confident, cool chick… Well in theory.

"Wow…" Bridgette gushed. "You look wonderful Court. We did a good job. Huh Gwen?"

"Yeah. I mean your pretty Courtney but now…" Gwen said. "You're just wow. The new look is really you." Man Duncan is gonna think he died and went to heaven. He owes us now…

"Do you guys really think so?" Courtney replied, examining herself in the mirror once again. "I mean… are you sure I can pull it off?"

"Courtney look at yourself!" Bridgette exclaimed. "You look awesome!"

"Yeah Court. The look is really hot!"

Courtney once again examined herself.

Wow… this is so different to my normal style. I mean if any of my friends saw me like this they would probably never talk to me again… Maybe they aren't as great as I thought they were. I mean they helped me to get into student council and stuff but… Courtney STOPPIT!! You are getting off topic. You are supposed to be thinking about the outfit… Right ok… It actually isn't that bad. I look good! I mean… I always look good, but this… this is a bad kinda good… kind of like Duncan… haha… yeah I wonder how he will react… Woah Courtney… once again off topic… Right the outfit… ok I am focused. I look good. I look good! That settles it. I am going to wear this and no matter what anyone says I won't change or get upset. I will…

"Uh Courtney?"

Courtney looked over at Bridgette, her inner monologue interrupted.

"Huh?"

"Gwen and I were wondering if you were ok with it?"

"Yeah… I am. Actually I kinda like it." Kinda? Try A LOT!!! And I'm sure Duncan will too… crap! Don't think that!

"That's great Court!" Bridgette exclaimed. "You look great it would be a shame for you not to like it."

"She's right Courtney. You look awesome." Courtney shot a grateful smile at the two. "But to really test-run this outfit we should get to breakfast because one it's time and two…"

Gwen was interrupted by the rumbling of all the girl's stomaches.

"And we're all kinda hungry."

The three girls looked at each other.

"Ok." Courtney said, sounding like her old self. "Let's go!"

Well at least she is dressing differently… It's a start. And Duncan sooooo owes us for getting Courtney in this outfit.


As the three girls made their way to the mess hall, Bridgette and Gwen kept shooting looks at Courtney, expecting her to break down and beg to change. But the CIT kept her cool as they reached the hall. Taking one last look at Bridgette and Gwen, which was met with a smile from Bridgette and a smirk from Gwen, Courtney opened the door and stepped inside.
