WARNING - MENTIONS BLOOD

Courtney was typing ferociously and swiftly on her laptop. She had a huge essay to due. It had to be over 7 pages about the The Black Death and how it had an effect on the medieval time period.

She been working on it for it for hours and she only has 4 pages done.

Ugghhhhh

She slammed her head on her desk and groaned in frustration. Who the hell gives someone only half a day to do this. She stood up and stretched her aching limbs.

She tried to think how she was gonna finish this be the morning. She sat back down and started searching for more information about the Bubonic plague.

She grimaced at the photos that popped up and tried to delete images from her memory, while trying avoid looking at the pictures.

Knock knock knock knock knock

Courtney sat up from her computer secretly happy that she had a distraction. She sighed and walked over to the door. She looked out the peephole to see darkness.

"Wtf "

She quickly skimmed her dorm to see if she had a weapon to defend herself. She found a long wooden cane that Bridgette made her in one of her highschool classes.

As she was reaching to get the cane on the top of her closet the person knocked again making her jump.

She quickly but silently went to the door, and looked out the peephole while her heart rate was speeding up.

Still dark, she got behind the door and opened it. She saw the figure walk in the door wearing black, and her instincts kicked in.

She whirled the cane and smacked the person as hard as she can straight in the nose, making the person fall from the impact and yell in pain.

She was about to hit him again until the person said "Courtney it's me its me!!" She stopped mid swing recognizing that voice.

Duncan lied on the floor clutching his nose, blood running down his hand and his black shirt.

"Oh my god Duncan I am so sorry I thought you was someone trying to kill me or something " she said swiftly and got down by him to help him up.

Duncan's nose spluttered when he stood up and Started pouring out of his nose. "Duncan plug your nose to make it stop bleeding " she said rushing to the bathroom to get something that will help his nose.

"I can't it hurts to much " he said jogging to the bathroom to get off the carpet. When he got there he saw Courtney bent over, half her body in the cabinet looking for stuff.

Even though his nose was throbbing and had blood practically pouring out his face, he couldn't help but lust over her. She probably didn't realize it but she was wearing short shorts that was pink and purple checkered.

And the best part was she was wearing a sports Bra that was black.

She got a first aid kit and and some tissues. " Here she said helping him with his nose. Duncan felt his blood rushing south. She was on her tip toes to reach his nose making her breast press against his chest. Duncan gulped and started praying that he could hide his boner at least till she left.

Just as he felt like he was about to loose control she backed off him. "Make sure you wash your hands kay? I'll go get some ice ready when you come out." She said looking at his red nose. Duncan couldn't speak, he felt like if he did he would say something nasty that would make her beat the hell outta him again.

He quickly nodded. She left the bathroom, went to the freezer and grabbed some ice. She set it behind her on the bed.

She couldn't believe that she did that to him, like she literally made him bleed. She truly thought someone was after her. She sighed.

I should just get the biggest dumbass award. I can't even finish a essay and now I'm just beating the hell outta people with canes. This is beyond me I need mental help.

She looked at sleeping computer and sighed, she still had 3 more pages. She quickly tapped the mouse making the screen come to life, and started writing and research. 30 mins passed by and she almost forgot Duncan was in the bathroom.

She started to worry.

What if he lost to much blood and passed out.

She got up and went to the bathroom and listened for any movement. But she didnt and started to freak out, then the door opened. And she lost her balance and fell forward on something hard.

Duncan looked confused, as soon as he opens the door Courtney comes outta no where running in to his chest. "Jeez princess I'd you wanted to be against me so bad all you had to do Is ask " he said with a smirk.

Courtney quickly got off of him a little reluctantly. And brushed off her shorts "I-um hows your nose"

"Its feeling painful and sore" Duncan said trying to ignore the pain. "Let me go get the ice." Once they got to the bedroom part if the dorm "Dont touch anything got it " she said like a big sister talking to her little sibling in her room.

"Trust me I won't, I dont want you beating the hell outta me" Courtney glared at him and got a jacket and went out to get some ice.

Duncan sat there observing her room. She had a single dorm. A lot of stuff was purple, He knew that was her favorite color since Elementary.

Duncan reminisced his elementary days. He remembered when he first realized he liked Courtney when Scott tried to give her a valentine's day card in 1st grade. He used to make her mad or something to get her attention.

There was that one time she was crying cause Scott pushed her in the mud on her birthday and laughed about it in 5th grade. Let's just say Duncan beat the shit outta him, he ended up getting suspended but Courtney came to his house and thanked him and kissed him on the cheek. That's when he realized he was falling.

Duncan snapped out of his reverie, she doesn't like me. He sighed and saw her computer screen lit up. He sat in her computer chair and looked at it

The bubonic plague huh?

He knew a lot about the bubonic plague because his history teacher in highschool loved to talk about it. Maybe he can add some stuff on there. But ice Is on the other side of campus so I won't have to worry about her coming in here.

Duncan started weighing the pros and cons.

Pro#1- her assignment will be done faster

Con#1- she walk in on me and beat me with the ice she brought

Duncan sighed well if she does try to beat my ass I can always run.

Just as Duncan was about to start typing he realized the blood that got on his shirt was drying which was making his shirt dry on to his skin.

He got up took his shirt off while going to the bathroom and turned on cold water in the bathtub and threw his shirt into the tub and left to go back to the computer.

He sat at the desk and began typing

--15min Later--

Duncan heard the door knob jiggling and Duncan quickly got up and sat on the bed. The door opened revealing Courtney who had a big tub full of ice.

She suspiciously looked around and Duncan prayed that she wouldn't notice her computer screen completely lit up. Fortunately for Duncan she didn't noticed.

"I brought some ice packs too and ice as well" she said putting it by him on her bed. Then when she finally looked at him she blushed.

"Duncan why aren't you wearing a shirt?

Duncan just smirked "my shirt got messed up thanks to you inhumane strength. But does it make you feel a way."

"..." her silence pushed him further "like hot and bothered? "

She tried her best to avert her eyes "

She blushed "n-no you don't know w-what your talking about. You just lost way to much blood. "

Duncan smirked but put the ice pack on his nose, wincing a little bit.

She realized that she had to pull a all nighter to finish her assignment. She groaned, Duncan checked his watch and stood up after. "Well Princess I gotta meet Geoff so I'll come tomorrow same time." He started walking toward her Courtney was confused but then she felt his lips on hers.

She melted into the kiss. The kiss was like 12 seconds. Then when he finally pulled away she didn't even feel on earth she felt on cloud nine.

Duncan chuckled smiling as he walked away. As Duncan was about to walk out the door he paused "and princess when I come please dont beat me with any objects". He said jokingly and walked out the door.

Courtney stood there for a moment and slowly touched her lips. She still felt the electric feeling. Courtney sighed and then she snapped her self back in to reality. "Ugh what the hell was that". She said outloud mentally kicking herself in the head.

She stomped annoyedly to the sleeping computer. She clicked the mouse and screen woke up. She was about to do some research when she realized that she only had to do half a page. She wonderd for a moment then she realized Duncan did it.

She quickly scanned the pages that he did and it looked really legitimate. She smiled and sighed in relief.

--Outside of Courtney's door--

Duncan closed Courtney's door and did a dance (a/n: I'll let you decide which dance you want him to do). Right now he knew two things

1. He was definitely coming back tomorrow

2. He knew that she liked him.

Endddddddd of that. This literally took forever. Thanks you for reading this. And I will update soon=)
