I know that was really short, but it was just feelings alone, so yea.. R&R!

Chapter 20

Courtney's POV.

"I WANT A SECOND CHANCE!!!" I screamed, jerking myself up. I looked around, and saw a startled Lindsay, who was plucking her eyebrows. She looked at me.

"Are you okay Casey?" She asked.

"Just fine..." I said, getting up. I started to make my bed.

"Were you having a nightmare?" Lindsay sat on the bunk, I was currently trying to straighten up. I sighed, and joined her.

"No." I denied.

"Really? 'Cause all night you were saying 'Doug! Doug! Bad Dream!" Lindsay immitated. She caught me.

"Okay... I was having a bad dream. Why am I talking to you anyways... I thought you didn't like me."

"Well you are bossy sometimes... But you seem very loney ever since Brittany was eliminated..." Lindsay said. She was right...

"Yeah... So? Isn't Heather going to skin you alive if you're friends with me? And if this is some elaborate plan for me to rejoin the alliance, it won't work!" I exclaimed crossing my arms. Lindsay just looked into my eyes. They were blue, and full of innocence.

"I just want to be your friend. I know I'm not the smartest one here... And I tend to be a follower.... And no one ever looks past the 'Dumb Blonde' radiotype..." Lindsay said looking down. I was going to tell her that it was 'stereotype', but I decided not to. Lindsay looked like she was about to cry.

"I just- don't want to be labelled as only the girl with looks! I want people to get to know 'me' and not just me!" She exclaimed. It took me a minute or so to figure out what she meant.

"I understand... At school, everyone only saw me as a whiney teacher's pet... I may be bossy... But no one ever got to know the real Courtney." I admited. Why am I even saying that to her? I dunno... She just makes you want to... Nevermind.

"Who's Courtney?" She questioned. I sighed, before pointing to myself. Lindsay slapped her forehead.

"You see?! Ugh! No one will ever take me seriously!"

"Don't say that..." I said trying to comfort her.

"So... What was your dream about?" I didn't want to tell her... But I need to get it off my chest.

"Do you promise not to tell anyone?" Lindsay made a 'my lips are sealed' motion. I sighed.

"Okay. Last night... I kissed Trent." I said. Lindsay gasped.

"You kissed Todd?!"

"Yes... I didn't want to... But I did. And I don't know how I'm going to tell Duncan! I told him nothing was going on... And I kiss Trent!"

"You could always not tell him." I thought about it. But that would make me a lesser person, and I have to accept the concequences for my actions.

Duncan's POV

I was strolling down to the mess hall, when I passed the Gopher cabin. I overheard Courtney talking to Lindsay.

"That wouldn't be fair to Duncan... I have to tell him about- Trent..." Courtney sighed. What?! What about Trent?! Is she leaving me for that Guitar playing girl stealer?! Oh no...

"So when ae you going to break the bad news...?" Lindsay asked. She's gonna break up with me! Okay. There are two options. One; I accept Courtney's decision. Two; I go persuade Trent to back off. Naturally, I chose option two. I went to go search for Trent.

Courtney's POV.

"I might as well get it over with now..." I said, getting up. I left the cabin, and saw Duncan walking over to the communal bathrooms.

"Duncan!" I shouted. I ran to go catch up with him. I took a deep breath.

"We need to talk..." I said grabbing his hands. They were alittle clammy, and Duncan looked really nervous.

"Uh... Can't talk now! Gotta go!" He said trying to run away. I pulled his hand.

"Go where?" I asked. He freed his hands.

"Uhhh... Huh? I'm coming Owen!" He ran off. That's strange...

No one's POV.

Duncan found Trent sitting on the edge of the dock. He glared at him, then approached him.

"Hey dude." Trent said.

"Don't 'Hey dude' me! You have a lot of nerve to try and steal my Princess!" Duncan shouted.

"How can it be 'stealing', if she came to me...?"

"What...?"

"That's right. We were on the dock, talking last night, and we kissed." Trent smiled deviously. Duncan's eyes grew wide.

"Your lying!"

"What do I have to gain, from lying to you?"

"My girlfriend!!!!"

"I think you mean, my girlfriend." Trent said, starting to walk off. Duncan just stared at him, for a moment, then ran up to Trent to confront him.

"Duncan!" Courtney yelled, running up to him. "What was all that about?"

"How could kiss him!" Duncan exclaimed, pointing to Trent.

Courtney's POV.

Okay. That didn't go as planned, but I came clean, in front of Trent and Duncan. Duncan justed looked at me, for a moment.

"I-I need to be alone for a bit. Talk to you later..." He sighed looking down. Duncan walked away. I looked at Trent, and he smiled.

"Why are you smiling?!" I said, with venom in my voice.

"That'll teach that delinquent to stay away from my Gwen." What did he just say?! "I-I mean Courtney!"

"You were just using me?!?!" I screamed.

"I-it started out that way, but I realize now that I really like you!"

"Save it. You wrecked Duncan and my relationship! He might never forgive me!" I shouted starting to cry. Trent looked into my eyes. He pulled me in, and kissed me. The small spark I felt yesterday, dissappeared. I kicked him in the kiwis, then ran off. I saw Duncan sitting on the end of the dock. I sat beside him.

"What part of 'I need to be alone.' don't you understand?" Duncan sighed. I need to tell him. I really mean it, and unless he hears it dead seriously from me, he'll never really know.

"What part of..." I started. I took a deep breath. "I love you, don't you understand...?"

The end! Ooh... Cliff Hanger! Sort of... Anyway R&R! Luv all you guys!!!

Peace out, ALEXEX!!
