Hey guys! I'm back to update again :) Am I updating too much? Should I go slower? :P Anyway, please understand that I own nothing and that this is definitely Duncney story and will end with Duncney together. So if your not a DuncanxCourtney fan you might not want to read. Please enjoy the new chapter ^-^

Courtney's P.O.V

I allow Duncan to drag me all the way to the mall and into many different stores until we finally stop at a fancy looking one. Can he even afford to shop here? I look around noticing not only dresses but mens suits as well and even if he could this doesn't seem like his style.

"Don't seem so shocked princess. If your going to judge at least try to hide the fact that your judging." Duncan says as I frown a bit and look away. Damn he must think I'm such a bitch now. I sigh as a female member of the staff walks up to Duncan with a smile.

"Oh Duncan your back. I'm so glad. I was getting lonely without you." She says with a smirk. She's greeting him as if they've known each other for years... He must come here a lot now I really feel like a bitch.

"I've missed you too babe. How's life still wishing you could work somewhere else?" Duncan asks curiously but he doesn't sound as cock as usual. He actually seems to be in a bit of pain when talking to her like he just met his worse nightmare.

The girl seemed to be struggling to keep a guilty expression from taking over her face. I look at her name tag which read 'Gwen' as my eyes shift between her tension between them was so obvious and stifling. It made me uncomfortable and I'm usually really good at dealing with tension. (Inserting major plot twist here. This is where the story stop being like the movie. Warning: Gwen is going to be acting very out of character N/A)

"Of course I am. Nothing has really changed." Gwen says with an awkward shrug when the phrase 'nothing had really changed' escapes her mouth I notice Duncan noticeably stiffen next to him as if struggling to keep his composure. "So um... Whose your friend?" Gwen asks curiously raising an eyebrow at me.

For some strange reason I got the feeling she didn't like me already and she didn't even know my name yet. "This is Courtney. My princess." Duncan says confidently suddenly wrapping his arm around my waist. I blush and look up at him in shock but the painful way he tightens his grip on me tells me to shut my mouth and go along with it.

"Your princess huh?" Gwen asks an annoyed expression suddenly taking over her face. I could hear the disgust in her voice when she said the word 'princess' loud and clear. It made me flinch a bit as I swallowed not liking the uncomfortable position Duncan just shoved me into.

"That's right. She's my girlfriend but I prefer to call her princess. She's everything I could have ever wished for." Duncan says pulling me close and nuzzling my neck affectionately making my eyes widen a bit. I blush as I giggle and squirm in his arms.

What? My neck is really sensitive. Don't judge me. Gwen coughs and makes a fake gagging noise in order to regain Duncan's attention. "So why are you here again?" Gwen asks clearly annoyed and nowhere near as happy as she was before when we first walked in.

"Well I'm taking princess somewhere nice I was hoping to get her something nice to wear for it. Something that says I'm sexy but sophisticated. Yep that would fit her perfectly. You think you could help her find something like that Gwen?" Duncan asks as Gwen frowns gritting her teeth slightly before putting on a fake smile.

"Of course I can. As a matter of fact I've got the perfect outfit for her. Your both going to love it." Gwen says with a slight hiss as I cling to Duncan a bit. The way this girl is looking at me makes me want to run away. I've never felt so hated by someone I don't even know. It's incredibly uncomfortable.

I fake a cough and smile politely at her. "Thank you. It's very nice of you to be so willing to help me but um before we go see how that outfit looks on me um can I take to Dunkie for a moment?" I ask politely I see Gwen cringe at the nickname as the frown on her face widens. Duncan looks at me with a slightly raises eyebrow but quickly shrugs.

"Sure of course. Just call me when your ready. I'll be right over there." Gwen hisses as she walks away. I turn towards Duncan and punch him in the arm as I glare at him.

"What?" Duncan asks rubbing his arm as my eyes narrow at him. He can't surely be trying to act innocent after that. No way in hell. I want some answers right now!

"What the hell was that?!" I scream as Duncan quickly quiets me. I see Gwen look over in our direction with a hopefully look on her face. Is she hoping we'll fight? What the hell is going on here seriously?!

"Quiet. We can't have her thinking we're not a loving couple now can we?" Duncan asks as I glare at him but decide to listen to him.

"Why the hell are we a loving couple in the first place Duncan? What the hell is going on here?" I ask softly as Gwen frowns a bit once she notices that Duncan has calmed me down or at least that I made myself look calm and lowered my voice. She huffs in frustration and turns the opposite way and start glaring at a rack of clothes.

Serious what is that girl's problem?! "Look Princess I'm sorry. It's just you were there and your gorgeous so it just came out." Duncan says while scratching the back of his head as guilt starts to show clear as day on his face.

I sigh softly as I look into his beautiful teal eyes. Beautiful? I just meant his teal eyes. That's it. "Duncan that doesn't really answer my question. What's going on between you and that girl? I felt so much tension a minute ago I thought I was going to drown in it." I say as Duncan frowns

"Gwen is my ex girlfriend. She cheated on me with his guitar playing Elvis type named Trent. She's the only girl I ever dated that I actually cared about and she completely betrayed my trust." Duncan says looking away from me and frowning.

I frown as I look back at her. Oh... I had no idea... This must be so painful for him. I guess he forgot she works here. Otherwise he wouldn't have come here at all right? "I'm sorry. I didn't know. Is she the reason why you treat girls like play toys and get rid them after two months?" I ask curiously but Duncan remains silent refusing the answer my question.

He doesn't have to answer me though. I can see it written all over his face. This girl made Duncan lose hope in love and have a good relationship. Where both people trust each other and are faithfully. He must think every girl is out to break his heart now.

"Look princess, I just need you to act like my loving girlfriend anytime she's around for a little while since we'll be spending time together getting you prepped for Scott." Duncan begs as I bite my lip and think about it.

"Every time I see her. She has that she's sorry and she wants to give us another try. That we're meant to be. I'm sick of it. I don't trust anyone especially girls. I just want her to back off. Will you help me?" Duncan asks as I frown a bit.

"I don't know..." I mumble as Duncan grabs my hands intertwining my fingers with his own. "Come please. I just need you to act like a loving, jealous, over protective girlfriend and tell her to fuck off. I know she looks intimidating but she's all bark. She'll back down if you stand up to her." Duncan reassures me as I look at Gwen then back at him.

I sigh. "Alright I'll do it." I say calmly as Duncan smiles genuinely smiles for the first time ever I since I first met him. His smile is so beautiful. I feel my heart skip a beat as butterflies start fluttering around in my stomach.

Duncan pulls me into a loving hug. "Thank you Princess. Thank you so much." Duncan says hugging me tightly. I can't help but smile and hug him back deciding to stop worrying and enjoy the moment. "I love you so much Princess." Duncan says lovingly making my eyes widen.

My face turns a bright shade of red as I look up at him. I see his eyes dart to right where Gwen is staring directly at us. I understand why he said it immediately and answer the way any loving girlfriend would. "I love you more Dunkie." I say with a smile as Gwen breaks the hanger she was holding.

I burst out laughing. Duncan laughs as well. We smile at each other once we catch our breath. "You've got a beautiful laugh and smile princess." Duncan says with a smile. I smile back then notice that Gwen isn't looking at us. He said that for nothing. I giggle a bit at that and decide to point it out.

"Gwen's not looking at us anymore Duncan." I laugh as Duncan stares at him with serious eyes. "I know. So what?" Duncan asks as I slowly stop laughing. I blush a bit as my eyes widen. So what? So he actually meant?

Suddenly Duncan starts laughing so hard he has to hold his sides to keep from falling over. "You should have seen the look on your face." Duncan gasps out between his burst of laughter making me frown and punch.

"Your such a jackass. I'm leaving." I say rolling my eyes as I walk over to Gwen. "Hey Gwen. I'm ready to try on that outfit." I say with a smile as Gwen turn towards me and narrows her eyes at me. "Perfect. Right this way." Gwen says clearly still pissed off. I gulp slightly. Well it's now or never.

Sorry for how out of character Gwen was acting. She's just the only girl I could think of that would fit for this extra roll I added. I'm sorry to the Gwen fans out there but there will be some Gwen bashing in his story. I like Gwen even more so when her and Courtney are friends so believe me. It pains me not to write them as friends but for this story to flow the way I want it too. They have to be enemies. Once I like Gwen especially Gwen and Courtney friendship and you like both of those too. Then WARNING: The next chapter will be as painful read as it will be to write. Anyway enough rambling review and tell me what you think. ~Little Miss CIT
