Yes I do not own TDI. TT

Chris watched as the dynamic duo ran towards The Cliff. After a minute or two, he exploded in sadistic, cold, and maniacal laughter. Chris cried out, "MAN!! THAT WAS SOOOOOOOOOO WICKED AND PRICELESS!! I DIDN'T THINK THEY'D FALL FOR THAT SOOOOOO EASILY!!" He leaned on the tree nearest him for support, for he was literally laughing his ass out. He laughed hard for about 10 straight minutes. And once he had quite enough he mumbled to himself, "The look on their faces would be SO MUCH MORE PRICELESS once they get caught in the booby trap I set up there."

--

"Geoff! Hurry up dude!" Duncan yelled. He was already a few feet away, running like his life depended on it.

"Hey man!! Could you just slow down??" Geoff dashed, trying to somehow catch up with Duncan, and then he said, "Dude, I could understand that you're really worried. I am too. But could we try conserving energy a bit?"

Duncan just shot him a glare and said, "NO." He looked up and saw The Cliff just a few more meters away. He ran even faster now. Geoff did the same thing once he saw their goal too.

Geoff's "toilet interview"

"Duncan was really into it. He was so pumped up with adrenaline that I got infected with it too. Honestly, I didn't know what was going on with us at that moment. But there was something that kept pushing us to reach The Cliff. Know what I mean?"

--

"We're here." Duncan muttered in a low, weary voice. He looked around, searching for the three people they've been chasing after. Geoff walked to the end of the cliff doing the same thing. After a few moments of searching, Duncan realized they weren't there. Then he punched the tree nearest him.

Unbeknownst to Duncan, his punch triggered a trap and the next thing he knew, he was up the tree suspended in the air. Geoff saw this and ran up to the exact same place where Duncan was standing just a minute ago. He yelled out to Duncan, "Hang on there man! Let me get yo-" Before he even finished his sentence, he was up the tree as well, right next to Duncan.

Geoff turned his gaze below him as he looked for his cowboy hat, but failed to spot it. He thought, "It must've been blown away when I was hauled up this tree." Then he turned his gaze to Duncan and sighed. He said, "You didn't see that coming now did you?"

Duncan slapped himself. "If only I was paying more attention, I would have. CRAP. How did we even end up LISTENING to Chris??"

Geoff shrugged. "We were kinda out of it for a while there, man. It's not your fault, dude."

Duncan growled as he squirmed around, trying to somehow free himself off the rope that ensnared his ankle. Geoff watched him with his eyebrow raised. He said, "I don't think that's gonna work, man. You're just making it harder you know."

Duncan shot Geoff a glare and told him off, "I could get out of shackles in seconds. I could escape jail cells in minutes. What do you think I am, STUPID??"

Geoff laughed, "Chill dude. Just messin' with yah."

Duncan rolled his eyes then looked down. He heard a noise come from the nearby woods. He immediately informed Geoff about it. Duncan told him, "Hey dude, do you hear that?"

Geoff turned his gaze at where Duncan was looking. Then he closed his eyes and listened closely. He heard rustling of leaves and a faint voice. He couldn't decipher what the person was saying, but he was pretty sure it was a woman's voice. Then a few seconds later, he saw a silhouette of someone.

Geoff and Duncan looked at each other. Then they turned back their gaze below them. Their eyes widened a bit when they saw Gwen walk right past under them. She had her diary with her and she looked a bit pissed.

They saw her trudge her way to a small tree stomp. She sat down on it and laid her diary on her lap. She stared down at it for a while, then opened it and started writing.

Geoff was smiling at her as he watched; she looked like she was in her own world the moment she started writing in her diary. But Duncan didn't give a crap. When Geoff looked at Duncan, he saw him putting his hands close to his mouth, looking like he was about to shout out something. Geoff instantly stopped him by unintentionally elbowing Duncan right in the face. Duncan swerved at the impact, making him swing in all directions.

Geoff had a strong feeling that Duncan was going to hit him back right then and there. So he thought fast of a way to prevent that. He whispered immediately, "DON'T RUIN THE MOMENT DUDE!! GWEN'S HAVING HER 'OWN TIME' RIGHT NOW. Look, I SWEAR I didn't mean to hit you. Just hear me out, man."

Duncan shot him a death glare and told him, "If you weren't you, I would've killed you right away." Then he let his anger go. Duncan felt the spot that Geoff hit as he added, "But seriously dude, that's gonna bruise."

Geoff apologized, "I am really, really sorry about that dude. I owe you one."

Duncan just shrugged it off as he turned his gaze towards Gwen. He saw her pen stop moving as she stared at her feet. Then she stood up, closed her diary, and laid it on top of the tree stomp. She looked up at the sky and started saying something.

Duncan raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Geoff. Geoff had a weird expression. Then Duncan asked him, "What do you think she's saying?"

Geoff looked at Duncan and answered, "No idea dude. She's too far and she's speaking too softly. I can't hear her."

Duncan nodded and said, "Yeah. Same here."

Then, as if on queue, she started speaking louder. Loud enough for Duncan and Geoff to hear. She said, "How do you make my heart feel this way? You're sweet, bright smile gives me such wonderful feelings deep inside me. The way you talk to me makes me feel so safe and serene. You always cared more than the others, and you always made sure I was alright. Oh Trent, if only you knew exactly how I feel, if only you knew how happy I am to have met you." She looked down at her feet again. Then she muttered to herself, "Who are you kidding Gwen? Trent doesn't like you. You're just dreaming of a dream that could never come true."

Geoff felt so touched, and he felt as if he wanted to hug her for to keep her from feeling so bad. Unfortunately though, Duncan did not feel the same way. Instead, he yelled out while smirking like a fool, "I never knew you were that poetic, Goth-princess."

Gwen instantly looked around, seeking for the person who said that. Duncan helped her out by telling her, "Up here." Gwen looked up and saw Duncan's evil smirk and Geoff's troubled and frustrated expression.

Gwen's "toilet interview"

"OH MY GOD!! I WANTED TO DIE RIGHT THEN AND THERE!! I wasn't just worried about them knowing, I didn't forget, I WAS ON FREAKIN NATIONAL TELEVISION!!" Gwen cried out as she pulled on her hair.

--

"Hey there. You should start writing a novel. Maybe that would help." Duncan laughed and turned his gaze at Geoff who was looking at him with a dismayed look. Duncan just raised an eyebrow at him and said, "What?? Did I do something wrong?"

Geoff just shook his head, and then looked down at Gwen. "Hey, he didn't mean to say that, he just wanted to help." Right after he said that, Gwen fainted and accidentally hit a switch below a bush with her left hand. Duncan and Geoff fell on the ground face-first. "Ugh, that seriously hurt, man." Geoff said as he sat up.

Duncan crawled to the bush where the switch was located and parted it so he could get a look under. And there he saw, a big red-button that had Chris' face on it. Duncan showed Geoff and said, "The SNEAKY BASTARD even had the guts to put his face on the freakin' switch!" Duncan shook his head in disgust, then he approached Gwen. He looked at her pale, unconscious face, then turned to look at Geoff. Geoff was on Gwen's other side, trying to find a way to get her conscious again. Then Duncan told him, "You look weird without your hat. Where is it anyway?"

Geoff answered him as he kept trying to wake Gwen up, "It was kinda blown away when I got caught in the trap."

Duncan raised his eyebrows. Then he said, "Why don't you go look for your hat while I try to wake her up?"

"Oh, thanks dude." Geoff said as he stood up. "I won't be long."

Duncan nodded and answered him, "No, it's ok. Take your time."

Geoff smiled, "Alright, dude. Be right back." He ran and went into the woods, and started looking for his cowboy hat.

Meanwhile, Duncan looked back at Gwen and took something from his pocket. He looked at the object. It was a small water flask that he stole one time from Chef's 'office.' It was pretty cool, so he just casually took it when he saw it.

So he took opened the flask and poured the water in it on Gwen's face. Then all of a sudden, Gwen coughed and opened her eyes. She wiped her face and sat up. When she looked at her left, she saw Duncan grinning at her. She jumped up and yelled at Duncan, "DO NOT TELL ANYBODY ABOUT IT!!"

"Tell what?" Duncan's grin just grew even wider. He stood up as well and looked straight at Gwen.

Gwen crossed her arms and told him, "You know what I mean. Can you just keep your mouth shut?"

Duncan thought for a while, then said, "I could promise you that," Gwen's lips started forming a smile, until he added, "IF you promise me something."

Gwen gave him a devastated look, and then she knelt before him, "I would do anything just for you to shut up."

Duncan put a hand on her shoulder, and said, "That's good." Then he held Gwen's hand and pulled her near the tree stomp where she was sitting just a while ago. Then he added, "You said you would do anything just to shut me up right?" Gwen nodded at Duncan. He smirked and continued speaking, "Then promise me, girly girl, act like my girlfriend for one week tops."

Gwen's eyes widened at his statement and cried out, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME??"

Duncan smirked and crossed his arms. Then he told her, "No. I'm serious."

Gwen pushed him away from her and raised her hands, "THERE IS NO WAY I AM GOING TO BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND!! NOT IN A MILLION YEARS!!"

Duncan furrowed his eyebrows as he said, "Hey. You said you would do anything just to keep my mouth shut. You can't say no. And I said act like my girlfriend, not be one."

Gwen glared at him. She didn't know what to say, so she looked away and thought for a bit. Duncan's expression seemed to change into a softer one.

"Hey Duncan!! I found it!!" Geoff ran to the two. He looked at Gwen's sad expression and said, "You alright?" Then he turned his gaze to Duncan.

He didn't have a good feeling about this. He walked closer to Duncan and gave him a serious look. Then he asked, "What did you do now, Duncan?"

Duncan raised an eyebrow again and said, "Hey, you were there too when Gwen said those things about Trent a while ago right?" Then he looked at Gwen with a smile.

Gwen shot a look at Geoff and immediately questioned him, "You were there too?"

Geoff squinted at her and raised his shoulders. He said, "Yeah. Don't you remember?"

Gwen smacked her face with both hands and let out a frustrated grunt. Then she yelled out at Geoff, "What do I have to do now??"

Geoff made a confused look at her and asked her, "What are you talking about?"

"I need to make you shut up too, don't I?" Gwen asked, still looking devastated.

Geoff looked at Duncan and told him, "Alright, tell me what happened. I'm feeling kind of out-of-it 'cause I don't know what happened."

Duncan heaved out a sigh, and then replied to Geoff, "We can't just keep this 'secret' without a good bargain right?" Duncan smirked. Geoff just stared at him, looking clueless. Duncan rolled his eyes and then pulled him away far enough for Gwen not to hear. Then he whispered into Geoff's ear, "Dude, we could use Gwen to get back at Courtney, Bridgette, and Trent. She asked me to keep quiet, so I told her to make a deal with me. I told her to act like my girlfriend for a week. It's just enough time to get our revenge."

George stared at Duncan. Then after a long pause, he said, "I never knew you wanted Gwen to be your girlfriend. Since when?"

Duncan slapped his forehead, and then he shook Geoff, "DUDE. I SAID ACT. And it's for revenge! I never LIKED her. She's too… different."

Geoff just shrugged, and told Duncan, "Hey, I am not replacing Bridgette no matter what. Go get Gwen if you like, but I am not going to replace Bridgette."

Duncan raised his shoulders and smiled, "You're choice."

Geoff patted Duncan's back as they both walked back to where Gwen was. When they were near her, they noticed that she looked like she was listening for something. She had her left hand cupping her left ear as she had her eyes closed. After a few seconds, her eyes shot open and looked at Geoff and Duncan. She said, "Do you hear that?"

Duncan and Geoff looked at each other and listened for 'the noise.' After a while, Duncan finally asked, "What do you hear?"

Gwen answered him, "It sounds kind of like a helicopter." Then she looked up.

Both men looked up as well and spotted a black and white helicopter flying towards their direction. As the helicopter drew near, they tried recognizing who was handling the thing. They couldn't distinguish who it was, but they didn't need to. Once it was a few feet away, the pilot called out, "Hey dudes!! Watssup??"

This time, they knew who the pilot was. Duncan called out in anger, "CHRIS!! YOU ARE ONE DEAD MAN!!" He ran to the helicopter as he grunted in rage. Chris was smart enough to maneuver the helicopter and let it hover right at the cliff's end.

Chris smirked at Duncan, and taunted him, "Oh wow, I didn't think you guys would get out so easily from my trap. I guess I should've added a few more accessories."

Duncan raised his fists at him, "I SWEAR. YOU ARE ON DEAD MAN, MCCLEAN!!"

Chris laughed at him and said, "Yah, SURE." Chris grew even wider now. He continued, "Oh yeah, I found them for you."

Duncan just gave Chris a look that said, 'What the hell are you saying??' Chris pushed a button in front of him, and then a huge magnifying glass came out of the bottom of the helicopter. Chris told Duncan as he grinned at him, "Take a look dude."

Duncan did as he was told, and lo and behold, there he saw Courtney, Bridgette, and Trent at the beach. Trent lay on the sand while Bridgette had her hands on his bare chest. The next thing he saw made him want to LITERALLY kill somebody. Guess what? Courtney was kneeling down kissing Trent.
