Duncan's Death Promise
Sorry it took me so long. My Microsoft word timed out and I had to reorder it from my system programmer. But I am back and I hope you like it!
The limo chauffer walked around the hood of the limo muttering a string of profanities under his breath as the campers walked toward the other vehicle and two familiar faces. No one decided to question the red cocktail dress that chef was wearing but all turned their attention to Chris.
"Wow dude, it has been a while." Geoff said with his strong California accent.
"If it isn't the campers! It's almost like a reunion." Chris said scanning them. "So….these are the couples that turned out due to the island…" A small totally Chris-like grin come over his stubbled face. "You should all come back to my place. I have some things from the Island that you might enjoy."
"Sounds like fun," Courtney said looking at the others. Every one but Duncan seemed enthusiastic about it. Chris and Chef got back in the small sports car that seemed two times to small for chef and took off. The Campers got back in the limo and the still cussing driver began to follow the car.
When they got to Chris's not so modest house mansion thing (lol) they all were led to something like a home theatre. "I found this tape in one of the actually hidden cameras. I like to call it, 'The Early Days of Duncan's band'." Chris said putting a dvd into the player. Duncan's face fell even more hoping to whatever god there was that it wasn't what he thought it was. When he heard Chris humming he knew what was about to play.
A picture came on the screen of Geoff, Harold, Tyler, Trent, and of course Duncan. The video began. They were having a conversation. "Since we can't do a group performance in the talent show let's just play it here." Harold said.
"No let's just throw this one out the window." Duncan said sitting on one of the bunk beds.
"Come on dude," Geoff said. "Harold is right, bro. We put a lot of work into this. We might as well play it and see how it goes."
"Fine," Duncan said standing up grabbing the microphone Harold had brought to camp as everyone else got on their instruments.
They began to play before Duncan began to sing.
Hey I've been watching you
Every little thing you do
Every time I see you there
At the camp fire pit, makes my heart beat fast
Everyone's eyes grew wide. Courtney's cheeks turned light red.
I've tried to page you twice
But I see you roll your eyes
Wish I could make it real
But your lips are sealed, that ain't no big deal
'Cause I know you really want me
I hear your friends talk about me
So why you tryin'to do without me
When you got me
Where you want me
Everyone was, at this point, moving to the beat of the song.
(Hey Juliet)
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe someday, you and me can run away
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
Everyone turned to look at Duncan who continued to look away.
Girl you got me on my knees
Beggin' please, baby please
Courtney couldn't help but the smile at the same moment that Duncan dropped down on his knees singing.
Got my best DJ on the radiowaves saying
Hey Juliet, why do you do him this way
Dj popped up out of nowhere singing this line and everyone laughed at the look on his face.
Too far to turn around
So I'm gonna stand my ground
Gimme just a little bit of hope
With a smile or a glance, gimme one more chance
'Cause I know you really want me
I hear your friends talk about me
So why you tryin' to do without me
When you got me
Where you want me
Hey Juliet
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe someday, you and me can run away
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
I know you really wan't me
I hear your friends talk about me
So why you tryin' to do without me
When you got me
Where you want me
You don't have to say forever
For us to hang together
So hear me when I say
Hey Juliet
Hey Juliet
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe someday, you and me can run away
I just wan't you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
When the song ended, everyone stood up and clapped except for Courtney and Duncan. Courtney gently put her hand on top of Duncan's causing him to look at her. "Nice to know Romeo," she said with a wink causing him to turn red. Everyone just continued to laugh. "I am going to kill you Chris..." He promised under his breath.
