Courtney Stanford had never been so disgusted in her life. Not when Ezekiel picked his nose or even the many times she had seen Geoff's naked lower half in some way or another. Not even by something that Duncan had done.
But the boy she was suppose to love was what made her so grossed out in the first place. The way he tried being sexy by squeezing her thighs under the lunch table or the way he groped her in public. It was appalling and humiliating for everyone.
Alejandro's kissing was by far the grossest thing she had ever experienced though. She could actually not stress enough how horrible it was. But thankfully, she had been able to avoid the make out sessions in public.
Until now, that is.
The cafeteria was packed, and almost everyone was watching Courtney and Alejandro as they showed their 'affection.' Courtney still wanted to convince everyone that she was madly in love with this boy so she went along with the charade of teasingly poking Alejandro and giggling as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
Half of the girls in the large room with glaring with hatred and the other half was praying to anyone who was listening that they would get a boyfriend like that. And then every single guy in the room was just pissed that their girls were paying more attention to the new kid than to them.
Courtney giggled as Alejandro picked her off her feet and swung her around. He carefully placed her on the ground and nuzzled his face into her neck, placing small kisses on her neck.
"Alejandro, you can't do that in public!" Courtney laughed but she was serious. You literally cannot give someone a hickey in the middle of a school cafeteria.
"Then how about this?" Alejandro challenged and started leaning in.
It all seemed to happen in slow motion. Alejandro leaning in, his lips puckering and his tongue starting to stick out just as Heather, who was standing behind them, whispered 'I pray for you, Court.' There seemed to be a gasp of breath just before Alejandro's lips reached Courtney's.
And then Alejandro showed his true kissing skills.
A collective gagging sound echoed through the cafeteria as Alejandros tongue swished all around Courtney's mouth and drool dropped from their connection.
And that's when Courtney couldn't take it anymore. It was bad enough that he grabbed her boobs in public, gave her hickies in public and just overall humiliated her in public, but when he does all that and still has the nerve to kiss/give CPR to her, that's when Courtney snapped.
The brunette shoved her boyfriend away as hard as possible and wiped her mouth of the excess spit. "STOP!" she screamed and the room fell silent, "YOU KISS LIKE A DOG AND I CANNOT TAKE YOU USING MY MOUTH AS YOUR CPR DUMMY ANYMORE!"
Alejandro was shocked to say the least. So was every other living soul in the cafeteria but Courtney just couldn't care less about what they thought. The brunette stormed away from her boyfriend (well, clearly not anymore) and towards the doors. Just as she reached them, Duncan, Geoff, and DJ entered the room.
Courtney pushed past DJ and yanked her arm away from Geoff when he tried to see what was wrong. She didn't stop until she was standing in front of her favourite punk.
"Hey Prin-" Duncan was cut off when Courtney slammed her lips against his, grabbing his shoulders to keep him in place before letting go and turning back around to a very shocked Alejandro.
"That is how you kiss!" Courtney huffed and without another word, stomped out of the cafeteria, leaving everyone beyond surprised and confused.
Courtney wasn't there to witness this, but after she left, the room was at a standstill. Alejandro was staring ahead at nothing, his mouth open and his eye twitching as if he weren't sure this was a nightmare or a cruel joke.
Duncan was wearing the same expression, but instead of wondering whether this was his worst nightmare come to life, he was wondering if he should pinch himself to see if he was dreaming.
And then there was Heather. A moment after Courtney had left, she started shaking. Not in rage or the fact that she was cold. Her breathing increased until she was gasping for breath and some people briefly wondered if she was having an asthma attack and then, she burst out laughing.
Heather does not usually laugh. Ever. But right then she couldn't stop herself and soon enough everyone had joined in.
Alejandro raced out of the room, almost looking as if he were about to start bawling any second as the laughter increased to an almost deafening amount. Duncan, with a ridiculous grin on his face watched as Alejandro ran away before turning around and following Courtney.
It didn't take him long to find her. She was standing by her locker, dumping mints down her throat and popping gum into her mouth at the same time. "So..." Duncan started but Courtney didn't say anything. "I'm guessing you two are through then?"
"I can't stand him anymore!" Courtney spat and whirled around to face the punk. "My father is in love with him and I can't take Alejandro anymore."
"What's your dad going to say?" Duncan asked and Courtney shrugged.
"I could care less," that was a complete and utter lie. "I probably won't tell him and whenever he brings up Alejandro, I'll say a bunch of stuff my dad hates about him and eventually I'll be forbidden to date him."
That probably wouldn't take very long either. Courtney just had to hit the right points, like his parents went bankrupt or Alejandro cried in the middle of school. The latter was probably true, too.
"Well, thanks for the kiss anyway," Duncan smirked and the pretty girl froze.
"U-uh, about that..." Courtney stuttered, "I didn't mean to just randomly shove my tongue down your throat. I was trying to prove a point and you were the closest guy."
"Other than Geoff and DJ." Duncan corrected. Courtney blushed a deep shade of red, because it was true. She had pushed past both of the boys first before reaching Duncan because the truth was, he was the only one she wanted to kiss.
"Well, Geoff has a girlfriend and DJ," Courtney was vaguely aware of Duncan taking steps closer to her and by now? He was right in front of her, his hand creeping to her waist. "And DJ..."
Courtney's hands slowly made their way from her side to Duncan's chest as he pulled her closer and both of his hands were wrapped around her waist. " What about DJ?" Duncan smirked and started leaning in.
His nose brushed against hers and both could feel their hot breath on each others lips. Courtney was the one to lean in first, deciding to close the gap between their lips. And just as her lips were about to touch his-
RIIIIIING!
The bell rang, signalling the end of lunch and startling both students and sending a wave of realization to Courtney.
Courtney yanked herself away from Duncan, only then realizing what she was about to do. Duncan Lancaster was her nemesis, the person she dreamed about strangling and the one guy she couldn't care less if he got hit by a bus. Or at least he was supposed to be that person.
"I didn't kiss DJ because he's too nice and I couldn't handle messing with his feelings." Courtney lied through her teeth just as the hallways started filling with students. Without a second thought, the brunette whirled around and hurried away from Duncan.
