Ch 5
Today is the day. It's the season finale of Total Drama. That means we get to go home!
The losers, including me, were forced to watch the finale live and on the island. This year the final two are Courtney and Alejandro. I'm obviously going to root for Courtney. Along with me, there was Duncan, Noah, Leshawna, Katie, Dakota, Cameron, Zoey, and Brick rooting for Courtney. Lighting, Scott, Anne-Marie, Justin, and Jo are rooting for Alejandro for some reason.
It's about 10 minutes before the cameras come on. Courtney's talking with her supporters while Alejandro was talking to his. Courtney came over to me.
"Hey, loser." She said with a smile.
"Hey there Miss 'I was a CIT'," I replied with a smirk.
She stuck her tongue out, "Whatever. And don't worry. I'm going to kick that Spaniard's ass. On your behalf."
I put my hand on my chest dramatically, "Well, I say! I'm honored!"
She laughed, "How are you doing? Duncan didn't bug you too much, did he?"
"No, he didn't. He was a good boy, for once. And I'm surviving. I found out that I'm p-r-e-g-n-a-n-t." I had to spell it out so Chris doesn't hear.
Courtney gasped, "Oh my god! I mean there's no doubt we don't know who the father is."
"Yup," I replied.
"You gonna tell him?"
"Maybe. I don't know yet."
"You should. And tell him about Ali too. It's the right thing to do. Ali and that baby needs a father in their life"
I groaned, "I hate it when you're right."
Courtney smiled and nodded. She then went over to talk to Katie.
I leaned back and closed my eyes. I started to get comfortable until I heard, "You look relaxed for someone that lost a million dollars, chica."
I opened my eyes and I see Alejandro smirking at me.
"Well yeah. I don't have to do any more stupid challenges."
He shrugged, "Those challenges gets you a million dollars."
I sat up, "You know what? Fuck the money! I rather be alive without a million dollars then dead with a million dollars."
He then glared at me, "That's a bold statement to make when you almost killed me for the million."
I looked at him, "I didn't mean to. You can be as upset as you want at me, but I apologized. What I said was true. I regretted doing what I did that day. I had to make things right with not only myself but with God himself. I will say it again, I am so sorry Alejandro. I know there isn't any way for me to make things right with you."
"You," he began, "have no idea how much pain I had to go through. I was physically, mentally and emotionally hurt by you! I'm only beginning to be okay again! And what I said that day was true! It still is!"
I stared at him, "Wha-?"
He interrupted me, "Even after everything you put me through, I still love you. I don't want to, but I do. And I do forgive you. I know you didn't do it on purpose."
I looked down, "There's something I need to tell you-"
Before I could finish, Chris pronounced that the cameras were being turned on. Alejandro left to go to where he had to be. I almost told him, but the universe told me no.
Hours later, Courtney and Alejandro are almost at the top. Alejandro has one big advantage, he has a longer duration. Everyone is cheering for either Courtney or Alejandro. For me, I'm praying that they're both safe. I learned one thing over the years, safety over money.
Then it happened, one of them got to the top first. Someone won Total Drama All-Star. It was Alejandro. Even though a lot of people were rooting for Courtney, they still clapped for Alejandro. Sure on the show, we can be sore losers, but we still cheer for the winners. We're still human.
When Courtney and Alejandro came back down, everyone surrounded them. Duncan hugged Courtney while the girls were congratulating her on the second place. The guys congratulated Alejandro on winning Total Drama. I stayed back, I never liked crowds. Courtney came over to me and I gave her a hug as well.
She panted, "Never have a foot race with Alejandro! I swear he's a wolf or something!"
I laughed, "Probably so. How does it feel to be in second place?"
"Not too bad. Still would've preferred first place though."
"Maybe next time," I replied.
"Oh no," she yelled, "I am not doing this again! Corey's easier to handle than this!"
We both laugh. Throughout this entire season, we became pretty close. I'm going to sound sappy, but I did win something; a great new friendship. Oh yeah and a baby.
Later that night we had a party for both Courtney and Alejandro at the hotel. I mostly hang out with Courtney and Duncan. At the end of the night, a lot of people were getting drunk. Me being pregnant, I had to become the responsible one and help everyone to their rooms. Courtney, Katie, and Alejandro also helped out.
After that, the four of us watched a movie in the lobby. Katie and Courtney talk with each other while Alejandro and I mostly watched the movie. They sat on the lobby couch and I sat on the floor.
I felt someone tap on my shoulder. I turned around.
"You look uncomfortable." Noted Alejandro.
"I'm fine," I replied.
He shook his head, "No you're not. We can make room for you."
"No, you don't have to do that. I'm fine, really."
He raised one of his eyebrows, "A rock is less stubborn than you."
Before I could say anything, he picked me up and put me on his lap. I'm too tired to fight back, so I just leaned into him. I could feel Courtney and Katie looking at me, but I don't care. An hour later, both Courtney and Katie fell asleep. I can tell that Alejandro is still awake, so I poked him to get his attention.
"Hm?" He remarked.
"That thing I was going to tell you. I need to tell you now."
He sits up, "Okay. Tell me"
I took a deep breath, "Back in Total Drama World Tour, we, you know, had sex together. A few times. Well when I got home, I um found out I was pregnant."
He looked at me with a shocked expression, "Wait what?"
"Yeah. It's a little girl. Her name is Alison. She's over a year old."
He blinks, "We have a daughter…"
"Yeah. Chris wouldn't tell me where you were. I tried to find you but all I got were dead ends. But there's something else too."
"And that is?" He asked.
I sighed, "I'm pregnant again."
He didn't say anything. He just pulled me into a hug and didn't let go. I smiled and went to sleep soundly.
