Hey Dravenites welcome to a new Total Drama fanfic. Keep in mind I'm trying to get rid of writer's block so if this seems a bit choppy, my apologies. Enjoy!
Yeah, you exist? So what?! That thought had plagued Courtney Barlow for the last 6 years of her life. After the end of Total Drama All Stars Courtney had gone back home and continued to crush her senior year and at the end of it became valedictorian.
She had also been dating Scott since the end of the season and the two were engaged! Scott had taken over his family's farm and for some twisted reason it had flourished under his management. However ever since he took over the farm, he had become less attentive to her, more focused on his work than anything else. To be honest, in Courtney's mind she wasn't sure he loved her anymore, this was evident during the date the two were on.
If this were after TDAS Scottwould had taken her to Buffalo Phil's buffet restaurant. It had been a staple in his family as his family had been frequenting it since he was a toddler. Currently he had taken her to a local McDonalds, Courtney was beginning to believe her suspicions were right.
'' Nice night huh?'' Courtney spoke, trying to break the awkward silence.
'' Uh huh'' Scott responded, not looking up from his phone.
'' Anything new happening on the farm?''
'' Nope''
'' Ok Scott Wallis, what's going on, ever since you took over that farm you've been treating me like a scab you can't pick off yet!'' Courtney lectured, her face turning a shade of red.
Scott put down his phone and sighed. '' Fine, if you must know I got in contact with someone.''
'' An old girlfriend?''
'' No, kinda, no'' Scott stammered rubbing the back of his head. '' Look you saw season 4 didn't you?''
'' Yes?'' Courtney answered, clearly showing skepticism.
'' Well I recently got back in contact with Dawn and, well I'm not good at this but…''
'' Oh god, you're dumping me?!'' Courtney cried.
'' Look I'm sorry, but whilst I like taking orders from you, Dawn just works for me, you know what they say, opposites attract'' he shrugged.
Before leaving Courtney performed her signature move and hoofed Scott in his balls causing him to cry out in pain.

'' Wow, that's…different'' Heather stated as she sipped her herbal tea. Heather, ( yes the same one) was currently living with Courtney in their Ontario apartment. Courtney and Heather had become good friends after they both ended up working at the same law firm. Not much had changed about Heather save for the fact that her hair was no longer in a pony tail but was rather let loose. Her personality had changed a bit ever since she started dating Alejandro, she was till sarcastic, scheming and mean, but she was also more empathic now and care free.
'' I thought Scott and I were meant to be, he was like a country version of Duncan'' Courtney sighed.
'' Hey when's the last time you spoke to him?'' Heather asked.
'' I'm not sure, not since TDAS'' Courtney tried to hide it but Heather could tell she was sad.
'' You miss him, don't you?'' Heather asked.
'' What? No. He cheated on me on international TV. I hate him, hate him, hate him , hate him'' Courtney defended…badly.
'' Court? What kind of law do I specialize in'' Heather asked rhetorically.
'' Trial science'' Courtney answered.
'' Which involves me having what kind of degree?''
'' A masters in psychology'' Courtney muttered.
'' Which means I know when you're doing what?''
'' Lying'' Courtney sighed.
'' I know you miss him but how're you going to get in contact with him?''
'' Social media, a guy like him obviously has Instagram'' Courtney answered, as if it were obvious.
'' Then look him up''
'' Fine'' Courtney got out her phone and started to type in the Instagram search bar.
Immediately when she searched Duncan Nelson, she got the penname Nelson_DuncXX, not surprising to her, his account was public, unfortunately it showed him with Zoey from TDROTI and TDAS.
Courtney frowned.
'' Court? What's wrong?'' Heather asked walking over to her friend and seeing the picture. '' Oh.''
Courtney just got up and slumped to her room.
Heather looked worried, she didn't want to see her hurt, especially after Courtney gave her a second chance.

Duncan was busy on a date with Zoey at Kakabeka falls. His appearance had changed a lot. He had gotten rid of the mohawk and it was replaced his spiky black hair. Most of his piercings were gone, save for the one ear ring he still wore. The only part of his teenage years that he still maintained was the soul patch. He stared at the redhead in front of him. Zoey herself had not changed at all, one look at her and you would never believe she was twenty twoIt never ceased to amaze him as to how a guy like him could end up with someone like her.
'' It's beautiful isn't it?'' Duncan asked gazing.
'' Me or the falls?'' Zoey smirked.
'' Can't I choose both?'' this caused Zoey to rub her arm.
'' Are you ok?'' Duncan asked.
'' I'm fine but…we aren't''
This took Duncan back, '' w-what do you mean''
'' Well…remember Mike?''
'' How couldn't I? His alter ego made Alejandro look like Katie and Sadie.''
'' Well we've been talking, I thought I was over him when we started dating but turns out I still love him. Sorry Duncan''
'' Hey, no big deal, if ya love him then date him'' Duncan pretended to shrug it off but was secretly devastated. First Courtney, then Gwen and now Zoey, he briefly thought about buying an anime body pillow.
Zoey pecked him on the cheek, '' goodbye Duncan'' the girl walked away to her car, he should've realized she was going to dump him when she insisted on going in separate cars.
For the next three days in his shared apartment Duncan had his faced buried into his pillow.
'' Dude, at first I was empathetic but come on, its time for you to move on'' Geoff lightly scolded his friend. Geoff and Duncan had remained best friends ever since TDI, so when the two went to college they bought an apartment together, which ever since Geoff proposed to Bridgette, she lived in too.
'' You don't know what its like to lose the girl you love dude'' Duncan said, his words muffled by the pillows.
'' True but you didn't react this way when Gwen dumped you''
'' I know, I'm not sure why though''
'' That's an easy one, you were too similar'' Bridgette said as she entered the dark room.
Duncan lifted his head off the pillow, his eyes crusted and large bags under his eyes.
'' Duncan, how long has it been since you slept?'' Bridgette asked.
'' How long haven't I been at work?''
'' Three days'' Geoff answered. '' Your boss called yesterday, I lied and told her you had a bad case of dysentery '' Geoff laughed earning a scowl from his fiancée.
'' Dude, the squirts? You could've just said I was taking mental health days''
'' I know but this seemed funnier'' Geoff shrugged.
'' I told him to say you had the flu'' Bridgette added. '' Look you need to get back to work, I heard there's a new physician there who's becoming the most popular doctor in the hospital.''
Duncan leaped out of bed. '' That's it, tomorrow I'm going back, no-one takes my title, but first'' Duncan got back into his bed and turned on his television.
Shutting the door Bridgette groaned. '' I can't believe it, twenty two and its like we have a kid.''
'' Not true babe, now c'mon there's new episodes of Paradise PD on'' Geoff made a b-line for their bedroom.
'' Never mind, I'm engaged to my child'' Bridgette smiled whilst shaking her head.

The next day Duncan did something he hadn't done in a while…he dressed nicely for work.
Duncan's job as a psychiatrist at Wayne Gretzky hospital meant he didn't have any sort of uniform he had to wear so most of the time, he wore faded grey jeans, vans and a pullover hoodie purely because he could.
Arriving at the hospital Duncan looked at the list of doctors at the entrance, what he saw shook him to his core. Under general physicians it read Aejandro B.
'' Ho,ly fuck'' he gasped.
