Time had flew fast, as I exited out of Bridgette's bathroom all dressed up. It was already the afternoon and I had quickly managed to finish. I wore one of Bridgette's blue dresses that stopped mid thigh. I had a natural makeup look on and hoop earrings. I had chap stick on my lips, partly because my parents never liked me wearing lipstick. My brown hair was in curls. Bridgette helped me dress up perfectly.

My heart was beating fast. I nervously walked in the living room, where Geoff and Duncan were watching a scary movie. As I walked in, Geoff and Duncan looked at me. Geoff gave me a thumbs up, whilst Duncan smirked.

"Princess whats the special occasion." Duncan smirks, while looking me up and down. I roll my eyes and couldn't help but grin.

"You pig, I'm visiting my parents." I say. "Geoff May I please borrow your car? It won't be for long." I asked hopeful. Geoff looked up at me and threw me his keys.

"Yeah sure."

"Good luck!" They all yelled as I grabbed my bag and exited the door.

I shut the door behind me and took a big breath. I clutched my stomach once again, knowing that my baby will meet her grandparents. I look up at the sky, hoping my grandma was watching me.

I get into Geoff's car and looked in the mirror. Not bad Bridgette. After all, Bridgette went to beauty school for a year. But she dropped out, because she felt as if it wasn't right for her.

I begin driving turning on the radio.

"๐™‰๐™ค๐™ฌ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™ก ๐™ฆ๐™ช๐™š๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ž๐™จ, ๐™ž๐™จ ๐˜พ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ฎ ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ก๐™ก ๐™–๐™ก๐™ž๐™ซ๐™š ๐™–๐™›๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง ๐™–๐™ก๐™ก?" I heard the radio say. I roll my eyes and turn it off. I hate the paparazzi I just want to be normal.

It was a 40 minute drive to my parents house. My parents lived in the rich neighborhood. Most of the times, it was just old rich people who live there. I never had any friends in my neighborhood that were my age.

Before I knew it, I had entered the neighborhood. I suddenly felt nostalgic. I drove by many large mansions. It was barely 7:00 pm, but dinner usually starts for my parents at 7:20 exactly.

I was pretty early.

At the end of the street, stood the biggest mansion of them all. It was my parent's. They always had to have the best of everything. I stood in front of my parent's big, black, gate, that surrounded the house. The house had three floors. So it was pretty huge, probably the jackpot for a robber or delinquent.

The gate had a speaker and a small red button on the side. The red button alerts an assistant (my mom or dad's assistant) which will decide if you enter or don't.

I pushed the button to speak, a man's voice spoke. "๐™’๐™๐™ค ๐™–๐™ข ๐™„ ๐™จ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™–๐™ ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ฉ๐™ค?"

"I'm C-courtney." I nervously say. A gasp was hear in the other line.

"๐˜พ๐™ค๐™ข๐™š ๐™ง๐™ž๐™œ๐™๐™ฉ ๐™ž๐™ฃ." The assistant says while the gates suddenly open. I drove in, my palms were sweating.

I parked the car next to, what seemed a green Ferrari. I got out of the car walking towards the big house, that was once my home.

I knocked on the door, and nervously took a deep breath.

๐™๐™ก๐™–๐™จ๐™๐™—๐™–๐™˜๐™ 

Sixteen year old Courtney jumped in excitement as she ran into the living room with a letter in her hand. She had just found out, she was accepted into Total Drama.

"MOM DAD I GOT ACCEPTED INTO TOTAL DRAMA?!" Courtney yelled excitedly. As she showed the the letter.

"Nice job honey." Her mom uninterestingly said, not once breaking eye contact with the computer.

Courtney looked at her dad but he just shrugged.

Courtney's smile faded as she slowly walked back to her room. Thought, nobody seemed to care.

๐™๐™ก๐™–๐™จ๐™๐™—๐™–๐™˜๐™  Ends

Surprisingly, the door opened very fast. As I walked in, the house looked the same. Of course it was clean and very white. But it wasn't very colorful.

A middle aged man- then took my hand and led me to the dining room. Where my parents were sitting down. Their faces were priceless. As if they just saw a ghost, or something.

My mother looked the same, except it looked like she had a lot of botox. My father's hair was now grey. He looked older now.

Then, they did something I never thought they'd do. They ran and hugged me. They were crying. My mother started kissing me all over my face, and my father rested his head on my shoulder.

I hugged them back, and I couldn't help but cry with them. I kissed them both and tightened my grip on them. I never thought they'd ever do this. I missed them so much.

"We both love you sweety we're sorry for everything." My mom said in tears.

"I'm sorry mija, te amo." My father said with tears strolling down on my shoulder. I could feel his tears myself.

I couldn't help but cry even more. It was the first time they'd said that.

"I love you too." I quietly say. Then they both stopped hugging me and lead me to my seat.

They were both looking at me still smiling. Soon after, the butler came and served us chicken and rice. (But it looks fancier than it sounds.)

"Honey where'd you go all this time? Why are you here just now? Did Buddy know of this all along? Why didn't you tell us?" My mother and father ask. They had many questions at a time. I knew I had to explain.

"Mom, dad I can obviously explain. I wasn't happy with how my life was turning out. Problems about the past and I never thought you cared. Buddy and I thought of the idea of crashing my dad's private jet. I went to grandma's house and stayed there. I came back because... I am pregnant and it's Duncan's." I say not wanting to tell my mom about grandma dying. This obviously wasn't the time.

My mom and dad look at eachother then at me. "You're pregnant?" My father asks surprised.

"Yeah..." I shyly say. "Mom why aren't you surprised?"

"Well I kind of expected this with that delinquent, but I don't care as long as your back." My mom says unsurprisingly. "Look honey we are both here for you, I am so sorry we weren't here for you. I really am the worst mother aren't I?" My mother says while crying once more.

My father looks down at his plate then back at me. "Courtney, we just want to say sorry for the way we've been treating you. We really messed up, not ever paying attention to you nor the the things you do. We really messed up. Can we fix our real and will you ever forgive us?" My father asks with big, pleading eyes.

A felt a tear still down my eye. I nod a yes.

My father looks at me and reaches for my hand. He then reaches for my mother's, "We are now connected as a family. Let's start over now. I promise you both, nothing will separate us now once we're united." My father says.

Tears stroll down my eyes again. I never thought I'd hear those words ever. My father then took both of our hands and lead us to the family- mini house movie theater. He then proceeded to put in a movie and my mom and I sat next to him.

The movie my dad picked was Titanic. It was cheesy of him to put that movie but I enjoy it. This was probably the first time we spent together as a family.

For the first hour we made jokes throughout the movie.

Surprisingly , we didn't last an hour before my mother fell asleep. My father looked at me and kissed my forehead and then my stomach.

"Please do t loose contact with us. I really want to be in my grandchild's life." My father says as he smiles warmly at me.

This was the first time my life felt complete...
