Courtney awoke with a start looking around. Her head was pounding and her stomach felt like it was burning. She then realized something. She didn't remember finishing the challenge, the last thing she remembered was a wolf howled and then she and Duncan fell asleep.
Duncan. She thought. She looked around.
"Woah this isn't my cabin!" she said talking to herself. She then heard the door open, causing her to look over, and see the most horrific sight in the world.
Chef in a red mini dress with a long blond wig.
Courtney had her mouth agape. She tried to say something, she was in shock.
"Girl you finally up? Good. How you feel?" he asked, having a noted book and pen in his hands.
She was still speechless.
"Girl you damage yo' ears too? I asked how you feel." He said, making his voice a little louder. Courtney managed to get a word out.
"…Fine..."
He scribbled something down on the paper. "You gave your boyfriend a shock there Miss. Courtney, kept coming in here worried about you."
"My…boyfriend?"
"Guy with the piercings."
Courtney jumped back. "What? DUNCAN?! Hahaha noooo he's not my boyfriend!"
Chef glared at her, "girl, who's the nurse here you or me?"
"I thought you were a chef…"
"Answer the question girly girl!"
"Sorry, you are mam."
"GIRL WHAT YOU CALL ME?!" Courtney was so startled by his loud voice she fell over back words on the bed. Getting up brushing back her hair she said, "sorry, yes sir..." Courtney said. How are we even sure he's a guy!? She thought
"Good, you can leave at noon." And with that she walked out of the room whistling Danny Boy.
"What the heck was that?!" she asked herself getting up out of the bed, looking at her watch, it was 11:30.
"Duncan its almost time for lunch come on." Geoff said, opening the cabin door. Harold was sleeping on his desk; he had been working with his microscope all night and finally collapsed.
"I take it he did an all night-er?" Geoff asked, Duncan nodded. "I'm not hungry, I think I'm going to go for a walk." Geoff nodded and walked out of the cabin and Duncan left for his walk.
He looked at his watch "12:05, would she be-" he looked up to see Courtney walk the way to her cabin, her back facing him.
They were a distance apart, Duncan desperately wanted to go up and talk to her. But didn't.
Courtney walked the way to her cabin, she looked at her watch and relised every one was at lunch. Her stomach was still burning…if that could be possible. She opened her cabin door to see Brigette sitting on the bunk; she jumped on her giving her a big bear hug.
"Aha Brigette!"
She let go. "Do you feel ok?"
"I feel…weird."
She paused, Brigette looked surprised. "Do you want to go back to the nurse?"
"NO!" she covered her mouth after saying that, there was no way she was going to she Chef dressed up like that.
"Okay if your sure, I think Duncan upset about you being sick."
Courtney laughed, then saw her look. "Oh wow, your serious?" Brigette nodded.
"Yeah, he seems like he's hiding something."
"Well, lets not worry about that."
Duncan kept walking, passing the girls cabin and went to go sit on the dock.
Should I tell her? Will she hate me? Why do I care so much? It was just a little…3 dozen fish. It's not like she's dead! I wonder if she saw Chef dressed up…Duncan thought these things and threw rocks into the water sighing.
I've never been like this. Ever.
He sat there for a long time just thinking.
There were no new challenges that day since they just had one, so the campers got to relax for a few days.
Duncan didn't even realize it, but it was dark out.
How long have I been sitting out here?! He thought. He decided to get up and go back to the cabin, the guys might be wondering where he was.
He stood up and turned, then jumped.
"Courtney…" He whispered, surprised she was standing there. She smiled.
"I didn't get to see you today, Chef told me you came to see me a lot when I was sleeping…have you seen how he dresses when he's nurse? Is that even illegal?" she asked, pondering this. They both stood on the dock for a few moments, then Duncan said, "most likely not but what ever floats Chris' boat, you know?"
"Aha, yeah."
Awkward, they both thought.
"Do you mind telling me WHY I can't remember or challenge? I know something happened." She said, turning he head so he couldn't see her face go red.
"Oh look its getting late better go to my cabin…" he sounded like a total idiot and passed her, she groaned and grabbed his arm before he left the dock.
"Duncan tell me!"
He sighed, then turned to face her. "Princess, I don't feel like explaining to the likes of you."
She got angry.
He smirked.
"Duncan I want to know!"
"Noooo you really don't."
"Yes I do! Didn't I just say I wanted to know?"
"I'm sorry, what are we talking about?"
She grew angrier. His smirk stayed the same.
"Why wont you tell me?!"
"There's nothing to tell sweetheart."
"There are many things to tell darling." She said, using sarcasm.
"Look, there was a little accident, but your fine now! I hate you and you hate me, so lets drop the little friend act and get back to being teammates, got it princess?" he was part yelling at this sentence.
She twitched
He regretted saying that.
She flung her arm, getting ready to hit him. He blocked it.
"Don't even try." He said, putting down her arm, and left the dock.
Their thoughts ran threw their heads.
I hate him.
She's scum.
Why won't he tell me?
I should have told her.
He's hiding something.
I can't believe I hid this from her.
Does he really hate me?
Does she hate me now?
And they both thought at the exact same time.
Yes.
A/N ahh sorry this took such a long time to upload I had writers block.
Why are they blocks? Can't they be circles?
Triangles?
