Yay! See I told you I would be back on track today! Well, I finally have my Uni application finished, I just need to do a few more things before it is sent off but at least I'm done on my behalf!

So, carrying on with the story, the song I used for last chapter was 'Fairytale of New York' by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl, (My favourite Christmas song!) I didn't really expect anyone to get this because unless you're from the UK, you probably won't know it. Spader13 guessed one word of it…but Totally Cool guess the entire song so sorry Spader13, maybe next time! Anyway Totally Cool, you get a one shot!

This time the lyrics are from another one of my favourite Christmas songs, it's a incredibly happy sounding song unlike this chapter, but I think the lyrics is most appropriate to what is going to happen.

Also, check out a recently published story called 'Total Drama FanFiction Awards 2010/11' by mythologyrulz. In this you get to nominate stories to win, check it out because I think it is a wonderful idea!

Before I start a big apology is in order for jaakaay19, I forgot to include you in my shout outs for reviewing! Sorry! It will be in this chapter!

And can I say something too? I got the biggest shock of my life today! I found out that Novie Edwards (the voice of LeShawna in Total Drama) has a Youtube account and does interviews with some of the Total Drama cast (A lot like Christian Potenza AKA Chris did) And she recently did one with Kristen Fairlie (AKA Bridgette!) And she is so pretty in real life and nice too, so with my own Youtube account I subscribed to her and to my surprise she left me a comment on my profile saying thanks for subscribing and she hoped that everything is well, how awesome is that? Check Novie out, she's a lovely genuine person and I am so glad she has a Youtube account, maybe we could steer her towards the FanFiction direction and we might get featured in a video of hers? Who's with me!

Thank you to jaaykaay19, Rafael Pereira, Wrong Side Of Life, Islanda, Spader13 and Totally Cool for reviewing!

Chapter 10: It's Been So Long.

December 12th 10:30 AM…

"Welcome aboard your flight to New York City, everyone!" The cheery voice of the co-pilot echoed around the plane for everyone to hear, "Our scheduled time for arrival is about 1 in the Afternoon".

'That long?' Bridgette thought as she shifted in her seat slightly, the plane had taken off a few minutes ago and it was steadily climbing higher in the clouds ass the pilot carried on talking to the passengers, it was saying something about in flight meals, Bridgette didn't even want to think about eating anything at this time, in about four hours she was finally going to see Geoff, after several years of thinking that she was never going to see him again, she was on the way to meet him.

She was terrified, anyone would be in her situation, she had no idea what was going to happen, for all she knew she could be going to New York for absolutely nothing and this whole trip was going to be terrible.

She tried to put all of those thoughts behind her, Geoff wouldn't have invited her out to New York if it was going to be a bad experience for her, wouldn't he? Bridgette had to admit she was starting to doubt herself a little about her decisions.

She also had to spend four hours without Mari talking to her, yes she did it nearly everyday while she was at work, but it just wasn't the same feeling knowing that she was leaving the country while her little girl was staying at home, she trusted Courtney, but that trust wouldn't quell the uneasy feelings she had inside of her about the fears of her daughter.

She rested her head against the plane window and closed her eyes, this was going to be an incredibly long flight, she couldn't look over the messages she had from Geoff because she had turned her phone off and she couldn't call Mari either, she was stuck by herself trying to entertain an keep busy for a few hours.

She knew deep down that the best way to make the time go a lot faster would be to sleep, and hope that she would wake up in New York.

"Miss? Miss?"

Bridgette's eyes slowly flickered as she felt someone nudging her a few times, she then saw a young air hostess looking back at her and smiling softly.

"The Captain has asked everyone to put on their seatbelts for landing" The Hostess explained softly.

"Oh, thank you" Bridgette said as she reached out for her seatbelt, the Air hostess walked away and Bridgette quickly pressed her face up against the window.

There, on the ground below her were many tall buildings, her heart leapt when she realized that they were here, she was in New York and her plane was about to land.

She sat back slightly and started taking deep breaths, any minute now she would be back on solid ground and ready to meet with Geoff, she was shaking in fear, it was truly a terrifying experience to go through but still she had to do it.

It was all for Mari, that's what she had to keep telling herself, it was all for her daughter, a few hours here and maybe Geoff was ready to come back and be a part of his daughters life for good.

She bit her lip as the plane slowly started to land, there was a slight thud as it came into contact with the ground and skidded slightly on the runway, Bridgette didn't think anything of it, then again, she did manage to survive four episodes of Chef's crazy flying on Total Drama World Tour.

After a while of sitting on the plane as it taxied in, Bridgette was finally able to get off the plane and collect her bags, all the while she couldn't help but think about where Geoff was right now, she was so close she could see his blonde hair and bright blue eyes all over the airport.

She had guessed that she was going to have to get a taxi to the hotel, but after she had gotten off the plane she checked her messages and saw that Geoff had sent her a message via Facebook.

I've asked one of our company drivers to come and pick you up, he'll take you to the hotel, remember, meet me by the big red steps.

Bridgette shook her head again, why was Geoff being so blunt with her? Why couldn't he just say that he was going to meet her at the hotel and get this over and done with? Maybe he was just as nervous as she was.

Bridgette was so wrapped up in thought she didn't notice someone standing behind her and waiting patiently, Bridgette looked around the airport for this supposed man to come and get her when a hand reached out and tapped her on the shoulder.

Bridgette spun around and saw a middle aged man smiling at her, "Miss Farley?" He asked.

Bridgette looked cautiously at him, he was dressed in a black suit and looked harmless, but then again this was New York, everyone could easily wear a fake face and then next thing you would know they would rob you clean of everything you have.

Still, there was something about this man that looked slightly warming, that then led Bridgette to nodding at the man who let a gentle smile spread across his face.

"Ah, Mr Turner asked me to come and get you to take you to the Redison Hotel, I trust you had a good flight, Miss Farley" He asked as he took Bridgette's suitcase off her.

Bridgette nodded, she was very unsure of all these formalities, it made her wonder just how rich Geoff was, offering to pay for an expensive hotel for her to stay in and now a personal driver? This was all a bit too much and made her feel a little disheartened.

The driver led her out to a fancy car and opened the door for her, Bridgette climbed in and sat on the leather seats as the driver walked towards the front of the car and climbed in.

"The journey should take about twenty minutes" He explained as he started the car and drove off.

Bridgette nodded in agreement, she was afraid to talk and she had no idea why, maybe it was the fact that all this money that Geoff had was all a little intimidating for her, was he trying to make her feel incapable of anything? Or was he just being classic Geoff and being a bit clueless.

Still she leant her head up against the window as the car sped along the roads form the airport to the slum areas of New York, and soon arriving at their destination, the shiny Times Square.

Bridgette leant closer to the window to see if she could see if Geoff's meeting place was close by, sure enough she saw a set of big glowing red steps that people were all standing taking photos of their surroundings.

The car then stopped and Bridgette realized that they were outside a very posh hotel, the driver stepped out of the car and retrieved Bridgette's suitcase for her, he then opened the door for her and Bridgette stepped out.

She was awe struck by her surroundings, the tall buildings seemed to dominate over everyone, the sound of cars filled the air and the streets were filled with important looking people, Bridgette had to admit she felt slightly out of place here, like she was a pigeon amongst a flock of flamingos.

"Miss Farley?" The driver asked causing Bridgette to turn around, he handed Bridgette back her suitcase back and smiled at her.

"Welcome to the Redison, Miss" The Driver said, "Mr Turner said that you're reservation has been booked and he will see you at three o'clock by the red steps".

Bridgette smiled at the man, "Thank you very much" She said as the man climbed back into the car an drove off, Bridgette looked back at the hotel and smiled, that gave her a good few hours to sort everything out before meeting with Geoff.

Bridgette walked inside and checked in, sure enough there was a room for her and it was pretty big at that, Bridgette placed her suitcase on the floor by the window and looked outside, the view was amazing, she was on the third floor and could see the huge buildings over looking the hotel and Time Square was buzzing beneath her.

She slowly walked towards the bathroom and checked it out, it was spotless and had a large bath for her to relax in, she had decided to take a shower just so that she was fresh for when she met Geoff, she striped her clothes and walked towards the walk in shower and let the warm water wash over her body.

"Hang on; explain that all to me again, you did what?"

Geoff sighed; he was sitting at his desk at his job, which he detested. He worked in an office that was opposite his Father's law firm; in fact he was the one that offered Geoff the job, since Macy's Father ran the company, Trent also worked there thanks to Geoff, since he was looking for a steady job after realizing that being a musician with no record contract wasn't giving him the money he needed.

Right now Trent was standing by Geoff's desk, things had been pretty quiet today and Geoff hadn't been acting right, so Trent had come over to make sure that his friend was ok.

Geoff couldn't keep it a secret and he ended up explaining everything to Trent, from what happened five years ago to just a few days ago.

"I got her pregnant" Geoff mumbled, making sure that no one was around to hear their conversation, "And when my folks found out they flipped and dragged me to this hell hole".

"You got her pregnant?" Trent asked, "Seriously dude, that's pretty messed up what your parents did".

"They hated her for some odd reason…they thought that she was just using me for our family money, she wasn't! But still they moved me here, Bridge and I tried to keep in touch but…one day when she was about six months gone she sent me this message" Geoff mumbled as he pulled his phone out and handed it to Trent.

The message that Bridgette had supposedly sent to him he had kept on his phone for all these years, he wasn't too sure why but he was sure that deep down this day would happen and so he had saved the message for all these years.

Trent looked at the message and then back at Geoff, "Wow…I know it says it's from Bridgette but I didn't think that she was this harsh".

"I know right!" Geoff replied, "There was something not right about this but even so I guess we kind of broke up after that, but I really want to split up with her, I mean we have a kid together…well…at least I think we do".

"Well, I doubt that she would still be pregnant after five years" Trent chuckled.

"That's not what I meant" Geoff snapped a little defensively, "I meant that she might have given the kid up or something, you know like adoption or something because I wasn't there to help".

Trent sighed, "Look, if you want I can cover for you if you want to go and meet her now".

Geoff blinked, "Do you think she'd be here already?"

"If Bridgette's anything like she was back on the show she would have gotten her ages ago" Trent told him, "Go, go and sort things out with her".

"Right" Geoff said as he jumped up and grabbed his coat.

Bridgette had left the hotel and walked towards the red steps, it was nearly three and like Geoff had told her, she was going to meet him, her hair was tied up in her trademark ponytail and she wore her favourite blue coat and waited, there were so many people around that she was pretty sure that she might miss Geoff, so she had to keep her eyes peeled in the crowd for him.

She was a little unsure, what if he had changed dramatically since they last met, what if he looked completely different and didn't recognize him, she shivered nervously and bit her lower lip and she scanned the crowd in front of her.

Geoff walked out of the office and towards Times Square, it didn't take too long for him to get there and when he arrived he looked all over for Bridgette, he wasn't sure what to expect, he looked at some of the mothers in the crowd that had children with them in case Bridgette brought their child with her.

He however, couldn't see her, it was slightly worrying, maybe she had stitched him up, he walked further towards the steps and looked at the top of them, maybe she was sight seeing and up at the top of the steps, but there was no one there that looked like Bridgette.

He shook his head, maybe she wasn't here, he went to go to leave when he caught sight of someone, her long blonde hair tied up in a ponytail and her olive eyes scanning the area in front of her, there was no mistake, it was definitely Bridgette.

Bridgette looked up and saw a man staring at her, she looked back curiously and gasped, the man's bright blue eyes seemed to stand out amongst the people in front of her, and his blonde hair still remained the same after all these years.

It was Geoff.

"Shit" Geoff mumbled as Bridgette locked eyes onto his, he was trembling all over as the two stared at each other for a good few minutes.

Her entire body went numb, she tried to move, she tried to talk but nothing happened, she was in a state of shock and so was Geoff.

They had finally met after all these years…

So…I'm going to be really evil and leave it there? Yes I am!

Sorry, it's just such a good place to leave the chapter, I will update soon and they will actually talk to each other this time! Please review and remember to guess the song!
