Sorry it's been so long since I posted, but I really just totally kept forgetting to get around to it. It's been written for a while. Anyway, this chapter focuses on Trent/Gwen, Courtney/Duncan, and Geoff with the girl that won a date with him (don't sorry Geoff/Bridgette fans, she's not trying to steal him).

Two to Tango

At five o'clock, Trent, Gwen, and Geoff met by the front gate. Caytlin was already waiting. He brown hair had been pulled back into a bun and she was wearing a long-sleeved green dress with a pair of black stilettos. She also happened to have her left arm in a sling.

"What happened?" Geoff asked.

"Oh," Caytlin laughed. "I was at the mall yesterday and I ran into LaShawna. I guess I annoyed her because while talking, she got really mad and pinned me to the ground and twisted my arm behind my back. The doctor says I should be better in a few weeks or so. Nothing big. Wow, Gwen, you look great."

And she did. Gwen was in a black dress that went to her knees, and had black lace over black fabric. Over her shoulders, she had a thin black shawl. He hair had been pulled back and clipped. She was the same Gwen, yet she looked majestic almost.

"Thanks," Gwen said. "So do you." She had to keep herself from adding 'for being mauled by LaShawna yesterday.'

"Limo is here," Trent said as the limo pulled up. He opened the door and motioned for Gwen to crawl in, then followed. It took Geoff a moment to realize he was supposed to go to the other side and do that as well for Caytlin, but she beamed at him when he did.

After a five-minute drive, in which Trent, Gwen, and Geoff were clutching their seats because the speed the limo was traveling at, and Caytlin was having a blast, they stopped at a restaurant. After a few moments, one of the side doors opened and Chef Hatchet was standing there. "We have arrived, Maggots."

"Chef Hatchet, were you our driver?" Caytlin asked.

"Let's leave the man alone," Geoff said ushering Caytlin away and to the door.

"Caytlin, Trent, about time you got here," Chris said when the four walked inside. "This is Pierre. You may come to him for any questions."

"If you will juzt follow me," Pierre said in a French accent. He grabbed four menus and began leading them through the restaurant. He sat Geoff and Caytlin right next to the dance floor where a few couples were waltzing around. Gwen and Trent were seated in the upstairs overlooking the dance floor, directly over Geoff and Caytlin.

"So, I take it you watched Total Drama Island…" Geoff said.

"Yeah, I did," Caytlin said. "It was totally uncool that you got voted off when you did. You totally could have won if Heather hadn't convinced everyone to vote for you. You or Duncan… you two should have been the top two."

"Uh, gee, thanks," Geoff said. He had no idea how to handle this girl. She seemed to have more energy than Izzy.

"So, I guess that you and Bridgette are an official couple, huh?" Caytlin asked.

"Yeah, we are," Geoff nodded.

"That's cool, she was one of the nice girls," Caytlin said. "Her and Lindsay, and Izzy, and Katie and Sadie, and Beth. The others were all kind of cutthroat and mean. Like Eva… but it's really cool how she was probably the strongest and beat up that Sasquatchanakwa in the challenge that she returned for."

Geoff sweat-dropped as Caytlin continued to babble on.

"You looked beautiful," Trent said to Gwen.

Gwen blushed a little. "You already told me that when we met at my room," she said.

"That doesn't change the fact," Trent said. Gwen blushed a little more. Trent reached across the table and took her hand. "Shall we look at the menu?"

"Of course," Gwen said opening her menu and looking down.

Trent sighed, glad that he didn't have to pay for anything. He might have been able to afford a small appetizer for one of them. But, as long as it was a free dinner, he didn't mind how much he ordered, or what.

"This is all coming out of Chris's pocket, right?" Gwen asked.

"Yeah," Trent said. "Why?"

Gwen smiled evilly. "There are so many delicious looking courses that I couldn't possibly choose just one."

Trent smiled at her. "You know, you're absolutely correct." They watched as a waiter walked by with several plates that looked only half full of food. "I think we should get three each. After all, we're still growing."

"Oh, so true," Gwen said, her eyes skimming the menu.

"Ow, Duncan," Courtney snapped suddenly. "Did you just bite me?"

"No," Duncan said kissing her neck.

"Not a bad idea, though. I'm betting she's kinky like that… I sure hope so, at least."

"Then what was that?"

"Probably one of my piercings," Duncan said. "But, if you'd like me to bite, I wouldn't be against."

"Oh, no don't," Courtney stopped when she felt his teeth lightly run over her skin and she felt pleasure tingling from her neck to her abdomen. "Okay, you can do that," Courtney said.

Duncan smirked and moved down her body a bit so that he was under the covers. Courtney giggled as she felt Duncan's tongue and lips on her stomach. When he came back up, he was holding her panties and dropped them onto the pile of the rest of their clothes.

Courtney began to chew her lip as she knew what was next. Duncan leaned over her and whispered in her ear, "We don't have to do this if you don't want to."

"No?" Courtney asked.

"You always have a choice to turn back," Duncan said.

Confession Cam: (Courtney)

"I love his soft side."

Courtney looked away from him, and she felt him move off her. "Wait, it's not that I don't want to," she quickly said. Duncan looked at her. "I'm just… nervous. I've never done this before."

Duncan smirked. "I know how to get rid of the first time jitters," he said. She stared at him for a moment before smiling.

"Okay, go ahead," she said. Duncan smirked and began down her body again. "Wait," Courtney stopped him.

"What?" Duncan asked, his eyes staring at her with concern.

Courtney brought her right thumb to her mouth and began chewing on her nail. "Do you have a… condom?"

Duncan raised an eyebrow. "I could get one," he said.

Courtney smiled and nodded. Duncan crawled off the bed and pulled his pants and shirt back on, not bothering with socks, shoes, or anything else. He quickly walked out and Courtney took a deep breath. "I am ready for this. I am prepared. I am old enough to make an informed decision, and I'm using protection."

"Sorry I took so long," Duncan said walking back in a moment later. Courtney smiled and pulled him back onto the bed. And then her cell phone began ringing. She looked at the screen to see it was her parents.

"I have to get this or they'll get worried," Courtney said. Duncan nodded and backed off. "Hi, Mom, how are you?... Oh, I'm just fine… Oh, really… really?... What? They were recording that? No, I'm, no Mom, listen to me. No, I'm not done talking to you, Hi, Daddy." She stopped as a yelling came through the phone. "I have no idea what you're talking about, Daddy. What? You can't do that. No. And if I refuse? I think I'm old enough to make my own decisions and it's not like you're paying anything. No, I don't want to talk about it anymore. Good-bye." With that she hung up, then turned her phone to silent.

"What was that about?" Duncan asked.

"Remember the other day when we made out in that tree?" Courtney asked.

"How could I forget?" he asked with a smirk.

"Well, apparently, that made the air for the show," Courtney said. "As did our talk about… you know what, never mind." She grabbed him and pulled him back to her.

However, he pulled back. "Are you just going to do this to defy your parents now?"

Courtney looked away from him. "Not entirely. Most of it is because I want to… with you."

Duncan shrugged. "Good enough for me."

"And I think it's sweet that you were making sure this was for us, and not against my parents," she said.

"There you go again with the sweet talk," Duncan said.

Courtney smiled. "I happen to like sweet," she said before kissing him again.

"Woo Hoo!" Owen yelled as a bunch of the TDI cast members that weren't occupied gathered in his room. Cody had come up with the idea for them all to get some drinks and snacks from the vending machine in the basement and Owen had had invited them into his room for… whatever.

"What should we do?" Sadie asked.

"We could play a game," DJ said.

"Oh, I know," Izzy said and quickly drained her bottle of Pepsi and placed the cap back on. "Let's play spin the bottle."

"That brings slightly disturbing memories back," Owen said.

"Not Chris's way," LaShawna said. "No, we'll play my style."

"And how's that?" Katie asked.

"Kind of like Horse," LaShawna said. "First person spins, and then kisses the person in an extravagant way, then everyone has to repeat that kiss until it gets back to the first person. If some one can't or won't, they get an S and the next person gets to start the new kissing trend."

"What if I spin and it doesn't land on Tyler?" Lindsay asked.

"Then you kiss someone besides Tyler," LaShawna said.

"Oh, then I think we'll just sit out," Lindsay said. She pulled Tyler to the floor and then sat on his lap.

"Any other Chickens?" Harold asked.

"No way," Izzy said. "Kaleidoscope is ready."

"You're name isn't… never-mind," DJ said deciding it was easier to just let her be.

"So, who goes first?" Katie asked.

"LaShawna, because she came up with the type of game," Cody said.

"Hey, what about Izzy for deciding on Spin the Bottle in the first place?" DJ asked

"Excuse me?" Izzy asked.

"I mean, Kaleidoscope," DJ corrected himself.

"Or Owen, because it is his room," Sadie said.

"How about me, because I'm the oldest," Avery said walking into the room. She looked around. "Where are Duncan, Heather, Justin, Noah, Courtney, Bridgette, and Eva?"

"They're all off doing their own private things," Ezekiel said. "Most of them just don't hang with us a lot."

"And you do?" Cody asked Ezekiel. On a normal basis, the home-schooled kid usually hung by himself.

"Well, Bridgette is kind of upset," LaShawna said, "and wants to keep to herself, and Eva I think is actually comforting her, Noah is reading, Justin is waxing his chest or something like that, we forbid Heather from joining us, the lovebirds Courtney and Duncan are having some alone time that needs to remain alone time for them."

"What are they doing?" Katie asked.

"Getting busy making babies," Izzy said.

"Shouldn't you stop them, being the RA and all?" Cody asked.

Avery shrugged. "Not my choice, is it? As long as there is mutual consent, there isn't much I can do." She sat down. "So, let's get this game started." She reached forward and spun the bottle.

Confession Cam: (Bridgette)

"It's weird, I was spilling all my secrets to Eva."

"It's okay, Bridgette," Eva said. "I won't tell Geoff about you and Ryan. But how do you plan on telling him about the dance?"

"I have no idea," Bridgette said, wiping the tears falling from her eye.

"Well, on the bright side, you have a date," Eva said. "Unlike me. And who would want to go with me?"

"Well, I heard that there was a photographer that was really eager to take your picture the other day," Bridgette said. "Think that he might be a possibility?"

Eva frowned a bit. "I don't know, he was kind of… I don't know."

"But, you want to go?" Bridgette asked.

"Yeah," Eva said.

"So, what could it hurt?" Bridgette asked. "If you don't like him, just dump him half way through, but if you do, hey, you had a good date, right?"

Eva nodded. "I guess you're right." She smiled at Bridgette for once. "Thanks for the advice."

Bridgette nodded. "Anytime."

"Want to dance?" Trent asked as the music got a bit louder. Their food wasn't due to arrive for another few minutes.

Gwen blushed. "I'm not much of a dancer."

"Aw, come on," Trent begged. "For me? One dance?"

"I don't know," Gwen said.

"What's the point of us going to the dance together if you're going to stand against the wall all night?"

"Fine, I'll dance with you," she said standing up. Trent took her hand and they walked down the stairs to the dance floor.

They got into waltzing position and Trent smiled. "Now, just follow me."

Gwen nodded. As Trent moved, he carefully guided Gwen so she wouldn't fall or trip. She was also staring down to make sure she wouldn't stumble. "I won't let you fall," Trent said. "You can look at me."

Gwen looked up and smiled. She was actually waltzing.

"Oh, that is so cute," Caytlin said. She dug into her bag and pulled out a tiny digital camera, waited for the perfect angle, then took a picture. They both stopped at the flash and turned to Geoff and Caytlin. Geoff looked half miserable, half ready to kill.

"We should dance," Caytlin said turning to Geoff.

"Um, I'm not good at dancing," Geoff said.

"That's okay," Caytlin said. "I don't care how we look dancing. I just want to have fun." She smiled brightly.

"Uh…"

"Hey, Caytlin," Gwen got a hold of the girl's attention. "Want to join me for a moment as I freshen up?"

Caytlin's smile grew. "I'd love to," she said and followed Gwen. Geoff let out a sigh of relief and smiled at Trent, who was headed back towards his own table.

"How's your dinner going?" Gwen asked as she and Caytlin reached the women's washroom. Gwen approached a sink and began to wash her hands.

"Oh, wonderful," Caytlin said. "Geoff is so handsome and funny. I can't wait until our food arrives. I ordered the boiled lobster. What about you and Trent?"

"Oh, well, we ordered a bunch of different dishes between the two of us," Gwen said with a smirk. "We couldn't choose just one coarse each, and it's all coming out of Chris's wallet, right?"

Caytlin giggled. "You two are so funny, and you look so cute together. It's so obvious that he's in love with you. I literally screamed when Heather tricked you into thinking that he was playing you. I even threw a shoe at my parent's television… they weren't happy to come home to find that their plasma screen was smashed on the ground and I had to use my old crappy analogue television to watch the rest of the episode."

Gwen blinked a few times, taking the information in. "That's very… well, it's nice to know that I wasn't the only one upset by that."

"Oh, no way," Caytlin said. "Everyone I know who was watching was shocked and horrified by Heather that episode."

Gwen smiled a bit. Then she changed the topic. "So, why do you go to Addams Academy? The education? Family legacy?"

"Oh, um, my mother is an administrator here," Caytlin said. "So, I actually live off campus. And I started freshman year, because we don't have the money to actually pay for the school, but as my mother works at the school, we get discounts, as well as there's only tuition charges, no housing expenses. But, hopefully I'll be able to get academic scholarships to a good university because, you know, Addams is a really prestigious school, and the public schools around here aren't very good at all."

"I guess I'm really lucky," Gwen said. "I might have been suckered here by Chris, but assuming that I don't get expelled, I'll have a really school on my transcripts to college."

Caytlin giggled. "Oh, we better get back before our dates think that we've ditched them."

Gwen nodded. "That's probably a good idea."

"See you later," Caytlin said leading the way out of the restroom, then split off, heading toward her table with Geoff as Gwen went back to Trent.

"I think Geoff now owes you his life from saving him from having to dance," Trent said.

"She's actually not that bad," Gwen said. "You know, once you get past her hyper love for everything TDI. How was your wait for me? People give you strange looks thinking I ditched you?"

Trent laughed. "No, but the waiter did come by to ask if we wanted all our courses at the same time, or would we rather take them in segments."

"And what did you answer?" Gwen asked.

"I said three at a time," Trent said. "So there should be room on the table."

"Um," Caytlin said as she gobbled down her food. Geoff was slightly stunned that she was eating faster than Owen usually ate. "This lobster is supreme! How's your lamb?"

"I'm sure it's good," Geoff said. He was longing to be sitting with Bridgette instead of Caytlin.

"You know, Geoff, even though this isn't a real date, it's still the best date I've ever been on," she said suddenly smiling shyly at him. "Most guys probably would have bailed by now. It's nice that you haven't even complained or started picking on my."

Geoff smiled. "Well, it'd be wrong to leave you hanging… even though it's not a romantic date, it's still a social date."

Caytlin smiled. "That's why I love you so much! You're so nice… in the platonic sense. You're meant to be with Bridgette, obviously, and have a bunch of blonde babies."

Geoff's smile widened a little. "Thanks."

Hours later, the three TDI contestants returned to Portman Hall, after Geoff dropped off Caytlin at her dorm building, happy, full, and rather tired after a long weekend and evening.

"Hey, guys, just returning?" Izzy asked.

"Yep," Gwen said. "What are you doing out of bed?"

"Waiting for the okay from Courtney that I can return to our room," Izzy said. "Owen fell asleep, and I'm not giving him the wrong idea by spending the night in his room."

"Oh, well… if you need somewhere to spend the night, I guess you can stay on the couch in my room," Gwen said.

"You mean you're not spending the night with Trent?" Izzy asked.

Gwen turned and watched as Trent had trouble opening his door in his tired state. "I'm just hoping he makes it all the way to his bed right now," she said. "Come in. You can borrow a pair of pajamas as well." She turned to Izzy. "I'm assuming Courtney's with Duncan."

"Yep," Izzy nodded.

"Then I'm sure they'll appreciate their alone time," Gwen said.

"And I speak from experience."

(Izzy)

"At least I know Courtney won't touch my bed unless she plans on washing my sheets for me."
