Hey guys it's been awhile since I've updated, I'm back now no worries and thanks for the reviews! I also decided to keep this in Duncan's POV to change the story a bit. Hope you enjoy this next chapter.Duncan's POV
It was almost 7PM and knowing Courtney she always arrives on time for everything like the stuck up girl she is, I chuckle losing my train of thought when I heard a couple knocks on the door. "Come on Duncan open the door it freezing out!''. I heard Courtney's voice yelling through the door.
"Alright your highness chill out I'll be right there" I walk up to the door opening it for Courtney as she walks in carrying the books we were required to study for. "About time you let me in I seriously thought I was going to freeze to death out there''. She said sitting on my couch settling in.
"Oh I think you would manage princess" I say rolling my eyes coming over to sit where she's at "oh yeah? Tell that to my frozen hands." "Don't worry sweetheart I bet I can warm them up for ya." I grin taking her hands into my own feeling how cold they were rubbing them to make them warmer. Enjoying the feeling how soft and smooth her hands were.
I took notice of how close we were to each other looking straight at her she smiled slightly at me, both of us leaning towards one another feeling the tension and heat between us, but before anything else could happen she pulled back regaining her senses coughing a bit.
"So I've got the books we we're going to study for the big culinary test Mrs. Robertson assigned us, we co- '' I cut her off "tell me again why we have to study for a cooking class?" I say to her raising my brow.
"I think this could really help benefit for this exam and I know you Duncan your grades could use some improvement in her class" I sighed rolling my eyes "how about we watch a movie instead" I say casually. "Duncan you asked me to come over here for one specific reason and that was for studying" she says getting up crossing her arms.
"Oh please princess you need to loosen up a bit there's nothing wrong with having a little fun, if you even know the term for that is" I say teasingly grinning at her. She rolls her eyes glaring at me. "I bet you don't even know the term for studying is either" she says. I stand up next to her
"Come on sweetheart I will do fine on that stupid test no worries" I say smoothly. She raises her eye brow at me "Oh really I sincerely doubt that Duncan" "How about we settle a little bet? to see if I do pass or not" "Alright how about this, if you don't win you have to go on a double date with me and Scott and you have to pay for our meals also and I don't care who you bring as your date" she says.
"My heart clenched at the thought of having to sit with Courtney and Scott at a restaurant especially having to sit near that gingered haired freak with the girl I had most feelings for" "sure that's fine with me" I say trying to keep cool and not let my façade slip from the rage I was feeling. "Alright but if I do pass the exam you have to spend the whole day with me and I mean the whole day." I say to her.
she laughs a little trying to hide the blush that was forming on her cheeks. When she blushes she looks so cute I thought "Oh your on Duncan as if you would ever win". "Who knows princess I just might I just might" I say repeating myself
She nods pondering sitting back down, I walk over getting both of us a drink "Yo princess you want some mountain dew or pepsi?" I say getting myself a mountain dew. "Huh..? oh umm.. do you have any water?" she says still in thought.
"Yeah" I say looking at her questionably going to my kitchen opening the fridge getting out a bottle of water going back over to her sitting down next to her handing her water bottle "Is something on your mind there Courtney" she knows that I only use her real name if I'm truly curious or concerned.
She looks at me sighing putting her water bottle on the table in front of her "Duncan do you have anything against Scott?'' "What that farm boy freak that your dating… not really " I say sarcastically. She rolls her eyes at me "Duncan it's obvious that you do and I want to know why" she says frowning. How clueless is this woman? "I don't knowI'm just not used to hanging around him I guess and that's just the way I act around people" ok that was somewhat the truth but I'm not going to just tell her why I really hate that loser.
She nodded her head as if she didn't really believe it "can I ask you something?" I said to her scooting a little closer to her that caught her off guard "Uh yeah sure" she said looking at me "has Scott been treating you right?" she looks at me blinking "what do you mean?" "I mean since you guys been dating for quite some time haven't you guys even kissed yet or been going out and living life?"
she forcefully laughs "I mean of course we totally have it's been great". Obviously not telling the truth so I move a little closer to her as her face starts to blush "I know you're not telling the truth sweetheart" ''I am telling the truth Duncan me and Scott couldn't be more happy with each other" she says.
I look at her frowning wrapping an arm around her "you better tell me know Courtney or its only going to get more difficult for you not to tell me the truth so you better fess up now" I say sternly
She sighs giving in "Alright…. The truth is me and Scott haven't even had our first kiss yet" I blink shocked I mean they've been dating for a while they at least should have shared one kiss "Also he doesn't decide on his own I always ask him to come over to hang out or to go eat out I mean I like that he lets me take charge and make all the decisions but sometimes I wish he would take some charge in our relationship".
I nodded putting the other arm around her looking at her "That just proves he isn't good enough for you" she looks at me flustered from our faces being close to each others "How w-would you know?" she says stuttering " 'cause you deserve a lot better'' I say leaning in and she was leaning in to but pulled back and shook her head pushing me back coughing
"Well it's getting late I should probably head back home now" she says grabbing her stuff opening the door about to walk out "Oh and Duncan good luck on winning the bet your going to need it" she says grinning walking out.
I sigh getting up rubbing my forehead I was so close to breaking her…. So close. She can't keep holding in her feelings like that forever she's going to have to break soon I thought.
I get up stairs yawning loudly taking a shower and hopped into bed and set my clock alarm to 6PM slowly drifting off to sleep.
"Beep Beep Beep" I slam my hand on the alarm yawning still feeling tired, I rubbed my eyes and got ready for another great day of school I thought sarcastically. When I was about to leave my phone vibrated from a message I opened the message
"Duncan I really need to talk to you at school today it's really important please find me as soon as you get to school"I shut my phone heading off to school I park my motorcycle heading off to the main building trying find who I was looking for "Oh there you are" I say walking up to one of the familiar lockers "Is everything ok Gwen"?
DUN! DUN! DUN! Yup and here is Gwen now making an appearance in the story. Who will win the bet Courtney or Duncan? Find out in the next chapter! Hope you enjoyed this chapter please review and stayed tuned for the next chapter!
