Can't Say Your Name
You know, even after all that, I still didn't vote you off!
Gwen walked to the confessional booth using the slowest pace possible, she wasn't looking forward to tonight's elimination ceremony. She got to the confessional booth just as Leshawna was stepping out, The Sister With 'Tude smiled sympathetically upon seeing the Goth. Leshwana patted Gwen's right shoulder. "Don't you worry, hon. Everyone is going to vote for him." "Right, thanks, Leshawna." Gwen said, offering Leshawna a weak smile. With that, Leshawna walked off to the campfire while Gwen stepped into the confessional booth. Gwen could feel her stomach churning as she sat down and faced the camera in the confessional booth. Ok, you know the plan. Just say his name, and then exit the booth. Nice and simple. Gwen though to herself. She took a deep breath, opened her mouth and-
Nothing. Gwen closed her mouth and reopened it, ready to try again and... Still nothing? "What is going on? Why can't I say his name?" Gwen asked aloud in frustration. Well that's simple. A part of her brain answered. You can't say his name because you love him. "I do not!" Gwen said aloud. Yes, you do. Think about it, despite everything that happened today, no matter how much you really want to hate him, you can't. Nor can you vote him off. Why do you think that is? "It's because I-" Love Trent. Gwen swallowed, she could feel tears starting to come to her eyes. No! No! I've done enough of that already. Gwen told herself firmly as she wiped her eyes. She paused as she took a moment to reflect on her realization. It was true. Despite him leaving her buried alive for ten minutes over the amount of time she needed to be in the coffin for, despite him kissing Heather, Gwen still loved Trent. And she couldn't bring herself to vote Trent off.
Gwen looked into the camera. "I vote for...
Lindsay."
The End
