Thank you everyone for all the comments! They really made my day and they were much appreciated. And without further ado, here is the next chapter.

I do not own the Total Drama Series.

Chris sat on his bed with his arms crossed as he watched The Hangover with Josh and Chef. His two friends were laughing their heads off at what Chris could only guess was a funny joke since he wasn't even listening.

Chef looked back at his sad friend and paused the movie, "What's wrong man? Ever since you came back from Blaineley's house you haven't said anything!"

Josh smirked, "Chris just can't stand being away from her for too long."

Chris smacked Josh on the back of his head, "Shut up! And I'm just tired; I guess I am not feeling too good either."

"Love sick?" Chef laughed.

"Why does everyone think I am in love?" the black haired teen stood up, "I don't love Blaineley! She's my best friend and that's it! Just because she has pretty hair and amazing blue eyes and-" Chris shook his head, "well, you guys get the point! She's a good friend and that's all."

Chef stood up and looked down at Chris who was now almost a head shorter than him, "So you wouldn't care if she had a boyfriend? Because anytime Brian tried to hook up with her you would get mad."

Chris flushed with anger, "I just didn't want her to be with Brian because he is an ass!"

"And you aren't?" Josh mumbled then laughed when Chris hit him again.

Chef glared down at his friend and began to think. Chris was really upset, which was really rare. And usually when he was upset he wouldn't show it. The dark skinned teen stopped glaring at his friend and looked at the door. Chef wanted to know what went down at Blaineley's house. He often felt like an older brother for both Chris and Blaineley and he didn't want to see either upset. "I'm going for a walk."

Chris looked down and his black hair fell in front of his face, "Fine. But don't be long or my mother might have a heart attack."

Chef rolled his eyes and walked out of the room, grabbed his jacket, and snuck out of the apartment. When he got outside he ran all the way to his blond friend's house. Going up the stairs to the front door he didn't even get to knock before he was grabbed and pulled into the house.

"Why are you here?" Blaineley looked at Chef with blood shot eyes.

Chef grabbed his friend's arm, "What's wrong? And how did you know I was coming here?"

"Answer my question first."

"Chris was really upset and I thought that something was wrong between you too." Chef still didn't let go of Blaineley's arm.

The blond gave Chef a curious look, "So, Chris was upset and you came to comfort me instead?"

"Well, Chris had Josh with him and I thought that you might need a friend."

Blaineley grabbed Chef in a hug, "Thanks."

Chef let her go and raised an eyebrow at her, "Now are you going to answer my questions."

Rolling her eyes the girl answered, "I knew you were coming because when you walk up those stairs it sounds like an elephant trying to tip toe in a library. And what's wrong with me is that Chris and I had a little…misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?"

Blaineley blushed and pulled at her hair, "Well yeah. He came over because he wanted to tell me something and I didn't really let him say what he wanted to say. Then we started joking around and he was saying how I was important to him and I thought he was implying that he liked me so I…I kind of kissed him."

Chef's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, "What did he do to you?"

"Nothing, he just left." Blaineley looked away from Chef and tears fell down her face.

The teen boy flinched. He wasn't good with crying girls. This was so hard for him! How was he supposed to protect Blaineley from his own best friend? Usually he would just find the guy that hurt her and punch him until he was bloody but, he definitely wasn't going to do that to Chris. Chef jumped when Blaineley put her head on his shoulder.

"What am I going to do?" Blue eyes looked up at Chef with such innocence that Chef almost did run back to Chris' house and punch him in the face.

"We're going to make him pay."

Blaineley sat up, "You mean like revenge?" When Chef nodded Blaineley smirked, "What do you have in mind?"

"That was a really long walk! Where the heck did you go?" Josh looked at Chef as he walked back into Chris' room.

"Eh, you know, around." Chef looked at Chris.

"What are you staring at?" Chris patted down his hair, "Is there something in my hair?"

Chef laughed, "No."

"Then what? You're looking at me in a way that makes me feel like I should be afraid."

Laughing louder, Chef smiled, "You should be."

2 Days Later

Chris sat in his kitchen getting ready for school when suddenly the bell rang.

"Hey," Chef smiled, "ready for school?"

"Is anyone really ready for school?" the brown eyed boy laughed.

Chef put an arm around Chris and ruffled his hair, "I'm one hundred percent sure that you aren't going to be ready for school."

Chris gave his friend an odd look then grabbed his book bag as they walked out the door. The two best friends walked to the parking lot of the apartment building and walked straight towards Chef's car. He got one on his sixteenth birthday and more than once found Chris trying to steal his keys so he could go for a joy ride.

"Can I drive today?" Chris wiggled his fingers.

"No."

"You suck." Chris looked out the window of the car and was confused when they turned away from the streets that lead them to school. "Where are we going?"

"I'm picking up Blaineley." Chef smiled and didn't make eye contact with Chris.

Chris swallowed, "Since when did you pick up Blaineley?"

"What is this? Twenty questions?" Chef glanced at the nervous teen beside him.

Chris looked away from Chef and shut his mouth. He was getting annoyed with Chef's weird attitude today.

"Hey guys!" Chef was shocked to hear Blaineley's voice. They came here really fast. What shocked Chris more was when he looked up at Blaineley, she was wearing a blue shirt that matched the color of her eyes and a white skirt that swayed as she walked. Her hair was curled and fell lightly past her shoulders, which was odd since Blaineley always straightened her hair rather than keep her natural curls. When she hopped into the car Chris smelled her vanilla cinnamon perfume; he loved vanilla and cinnamon and the only person who knew about the things that Chris liked about in a girl was…Flipping his hair out of his face, Chris stared at Chef. What were these two up to?

Chef who noticed Chris staring at him smirked and said, "Blaineley you look great today. Don't you think so Chris?"

"Umm uhh," Chris looked at Blaineley and she smiled at him innocently, "yeah, you look nice Blaineley."

"Thanks Chris." The blond giggled behind her hand when Chef winked at her.

Chris noticed the wink, "What is up with you guys?"

"Nothing," Chris' two friends said in unison.

Finally, they arrived at school and Chris grabbed his bag quickly so he could get away from Blaineley and Chef. But, he was stopped in his tracks when he heard;

"Brian, you are so funny!" Blaineley grabbed at Brian's bicep, "And strong and," the blond put her arms around Brian and pulled him towards her.

"Ow!" Brian lay on his back on the floor. Chris had grabbed him by the back of his shirt and pulled him to the ground, "What is wrong with you?"

"Me?" Chris yelled, "What about you?"

"Why do you care about me hanging out with Blaineley?"

"Hanging out? You guys were about to suck face!"

Blaineley stood next to Brian with her hands on her waist, "Your point?"

"My point?" Chris opened his mouth then closed it, what was his point?

Shaking his head Brian said, "You're just mad that everyone around you is happy but you!"

Chef looked at Blaineley, this was getting too far.

"You're mad that Blaineley is happy with me and that Josh has a girlfriend. You're mad because your dad left you and now Chef is going to do the same. And I bet that now you're really mad because you don't have anything to say because I am telling the truth."

Chris shook his head and glared at Brian and Blaineley, "I don't care about anyone! Why should I? Because you know what? You are right, everyone is going to leave me eventually and there isn't anything I can do about that." And with that Chris turned on his heel and walked away from the school parking lot and away from the school.

"Chris!" Chef yelled as he ran after his friend. "Stop!"

The black haired teen turned and screamed, "No! I know you were a part of this! You wanted to see me you look stupid in front of those two! I told you that I was fine and you just made everything worse!"

"You know I didn't mean to do that."

"You are supposed to be on my side. I don't care that you wanted to help Blaineley to get me jealous, but you had to bring Brian into this? Now he knows that I care about Blaineley and you knew that he would say something that I probably should ignore but I can't! Yeah, sorry I know I am supposed to be the guy that has no emotion but my feelings can actually get hurt! And everyone always seems to forget that!" Angry tears formed in Chris's eyes but he blinked them away.

"Chris, I'm sorry I-"

"Just stop," the sad teen whispered, "Forget about this. I don't want anything to do with Brian or Blaineley or even you. Just leave me alone."

"Chris! Wait!"

And for the second time Chris ignored another of his friend's pleas as he walked away.

4 Days Later; The Day Chef has to Leave

Chris looked at his calendar and knew today was the day. Chef was going to be gone for who knows how long and he ignored him for the last couple days they could be together. Putting his head in his hands Chris closed his eyes. He wanted to say bye to Chef but he also wanted people to think that he cared about nothing and no one.

Sally walked into Chris' room and sat on his bed. She looked at the calendar and saw the date. She knew about the fight but what it was about was what she didn't know. "I brought you something," when Chris didn't look away from the calendar Sally put down the object in her hands and left the room.

When the door closed Chris looked beside him and found a VHS. On the front it said 'Chris' 8th Birthday'. Raising an eyebrow Chris put it into his TV. He didn't remember his mom filming his birthday.

Chris sat back on his bed and the movie began;

"Chris! Stop spreading too hard! You're squishing the bread!"

"Chef I don't know how to make a PB&J sandwich! You said you were going to teach me not yell at me!" Chris crossed his little arms.

Chef pulled on his white chef hat and said, "But you stink at this!"

"I don't stink!"

"Yes you do!"

Chris crossed his arms and yelled, "Fine! You make your stupid sandwiches by yourself!" then he left the kitchen and went up stairs.

The camera looked down to the ground and Chris heard Chef's mom and his mom talking;

"I'll talk to Chris and you talk to Maurice maybe we can get them to compromise." Sally whispered.

Patricia, Chef's mother whispered back, "Ok!"

For a good five minutes nothing happened on the screen then Chris heard his mom's voice again.

"He won't come out of his room!"

"Maurice doesn't want to come out of the kitchen."

Sally sighed and grabbed the camera and put it on the counter. The camera showed Chef cutting the crust off of two sandwiches. Suddenly, the two adult's voices died down and for ten minutes Chef was cleaning the kitchen.

"Chef?" Chris came back into the kitchen.

"What?" Chef looked at his feet. "Why did you come back?"

"Because I am sorry I yelled at you."

"I'm sorry too." Chef handed Chris one of the sandwiches on the counter and grabbed the other.

"Thanks and Chef?"

"Yeah?"

"You're the best Chef I know!" The two kids laughed and Chef hugged Chris.

The black haired boy then noticed the camera and yelled "Mom! You forgot to turn the camera off again!"

Then the screen went black.

Chris was running in the airport trying to find where Chef had said he was going to be. Finally, he found him and put a hand on his shoulder.

Chef turned and when he saw Chris he gave him a small smile.

"Hey, you just missed Blaineley and Josh."

"Oh..Chef-?"

"Why did you come?" Chef asked.

"Because I am sorry I yelled at you."

"I'm sorry too."

"Chef?"

The dark skinned teen looked up, "Yeah?"

Chris handed him his old Chef's hat, "You're the best Chef I know."

Ok, so I am going to be really sad that I can't write about Chef anymore. He was one of my favorites! Please review and tell me how you liked the chapter! Thanks!
