Chapter Three: Get Over It

Disclaimer: Do you think a girl like me would own something as great as TDI? NO!
Anger fled into her wobbly body. Her worst nightmare had came true. Duncan had kissed a girl, and it wasn't her. It was even a girl she certainly hated. Courtney had ran farther into the forest, getting herself lost. She didn't care. She wanted to get away from Duncan. She ran for a long time, then finally fell to the ground after her legs gave out. She landed on the hard ground, covered in bugs and dirt.
I hate him. Never want to see or speak to him ever again.
Why?
He kissed someone, and it wasn't me.
I thought you didn't like him.
Shut up! You know I always have.
See. You should have told him, he moved on, now it's too late...
While having a mental conversation with herself, far off Duncan was still standing in one place.
He was still confused on what happened and was trying to figure it out.
"That crazy chick was lost, I found her, she kissed me.." Duncan said to himself. "Courtney showed up, crazy chick slapped me and ran off, then Courtney ran off."
Although he looked totally fine on the outside, on the inside he felt hurt. Courtney's words stung, as they echoed throughout his ears.
"I can't believe you! I thought we had feelings, I thought we were together! That's it! I don't want to ever talk to, or see you again! I hate you!"
She said he hated him. She sounded so hurt, that it seemed true. Courtney really did hate him. Once he imagined the whole situation from Courtney's point of view, it hit him. How would he feel if he spotted his girl kissing one of the male campers? Well, he wouldn't have ran away, actually he would have killed the boy. But he would have been hurt, just like Courtney.
"That bitch.." he muttered, referring to Heather. "She kissed me just to make Courtney upset."
After saying that, he worked his way back to camp, silent. On his way to his cabin, he heard annoying giggling from the Gopher Girl cabins. He stopped, his foot in mid-air. He held his ear against the cabin door and listened.
"Oh my gosh, you should have seen it Lindsay! Courtney looked like a baby, crying, and her face all red!" Heather had a giggle fit on her bunk, nearly falling off.
Lindsay giggled too, but it was forced, "Uh huh, wow, that must have been funny.."
Heather sat up and looked serious, "Why aren't you finding this funny?"
"It's just that.. if you were to do that with me and someone I like.. I would be pretty hurt.. ow!"
Towards the end, Heather had rolled up her magazine and smacked Lindsay's head. "Look, Lindsay, we need to hurt some people if we want to make it to the end!"
Now Duncan knew. Heather didn't do it just to make Courtney upset, she did it to hurt them competing. Duncan burst the door open, which made both girls in the cabin gasp. Duncan was mad, real mad. Not like the many times Harold left his underwear lying around. Not like the times he got caught by cops, especially ones in his family.
When you mess with Duncan's princess, you're done. Heather, trying not panic, snarled, "Oh, look who it is!"
Duncan walked over to her bunk, making her a little frightened. She clung onto the blanket under her. "This isn't funny.."
"I-I-I never say- said it was!" Heather stuttered and pointed. "It- it- it was Lindsay!"
"What!" Lindsay shrieked, her eyes widening.
Duncan huffed. "You got my girl hating me. You..." he trailed off and looked away. Looking at the horrifying creature could force him to knock her out. "You're so lucky these cameras are filming us. My parole officer is probably watching..." Before anyone did anything else, he walked out. Heather sighed in relief.

Pull yourself together, Courtney!
But- but he kissed her-
Shut up and stand up!
I can't! My knees are too weak.
Oh, so you're relying on a delinquent for support?
Not anymore..
GET UP, NOW!
It had been a while, actually become nighttime, and Courtney was still having her mental conversation. One part of her was telling herself to get up, go back to camp, and forget about Duncan. The other side was weak, letting Courtney lie there.
"That's it!" Courtney yelled and stood up. She dusted herself off, and fluffed her hair down. "I don't need Du-" She couldn't handle finishing his name. Her voice cracked, and she told herself the rest of the sentence inside of her mind. She decided to go back to camp, just one problem. She was lost.
"Oh please, please oh please, let me make it back to camp before the challenge tomorrow!"

A/N- I changed the rating to T for occasional cussing, kissing, and mainly just to be safe and not risk it. Heh, I am so proud of the last chapter. Why? Because within 2 hours I posted it, atleast 4 people had reviewed. And, c'mon people, it was like one in the morning!
I'm sorry if this chapter wasn't too good, I was out of ideas. Sorry that this chapter is pretty short, it was suppose to be longer, but writers' block struck me.
