(Last Time)
"Ok the number was twenty five so since Courtney guessed one and John guessed fifty they will be the one's following Rose and Jack." Everyone else let out a sigh of relief while the two chosen let their mouths fall open.
"But I hate him!" Courtney yelled while pointing a finger at John.
"But she hates me!" John responded pointing a finger at Courtney.
"Uhh…too bad. You to didn't care and now you're paying for it. Now you will work together and like it." Emma said sticking out her tongue. The two looked at each other before sighing in defeat. They turned and left the rest of the group just standing there.
"They're going to kill each other aren't they Ashley?" Emma asked her friend who had walked up and stood beside her.
"What was your first clue Sherlock?" she responded with a smirk.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Chapter 17: Banning Together
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"I hate you…" Courtney growled.
"I hate you too." John shot back. The two were sitting on a bench waiting for Jack to appear over the railing. It would be an understatement to say these to were not happy about this fact.
"Why are we here again?" John asked the blonde girl who was watching a boy play with a top. She sighed.
"Because we didn't care enough to think." She thought of how she was going to kill Emma later. Simply shooting her didn't make her happy enough.
Just then the two watched as Jack's hands came over the railing. Both of their eyebrows raised as they heard Tommy down below talking.
"I swear he's lost his mind!" came the voice as Jack's head joined his hands. Courtney and John got up and walked over to the railing. Without notice they each took a hand and both pulled the third class man over the railing completely.
Jack stood there for a minute looking at the two oddly. "Uhh…thank you?" he said with a questioning look. Courtney looked at John with a 'we're going to kill Emma later' look. She turned back to Jack.
"Ok look, Rose is going to be taking a walk around the ship on a tour type thing. Wait for her and then pull her into the gym if you want to talk to her." Courtney said simply before pulling John away.
"Uhh…thank you?" Jack said before running to find a proper outfit for first class.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Ow…ow…OW!" John yelled as Courtney pulled him into the gymnasium by the ear. He felt as she threw him onto the ground. "What was that for?"
"Because you were going to slow….besides we're supposed to be working on this together and yet I do all the work." She growled at him. He felt his eyebrow shoot up at this accusation.
"Hey I helped! You wouldn't have been able to pull him up without my help! Don't come complaining to me that I don't help." He shot back getting very defensive.
"Yeah that's right, cause we girls are so weak without the help of boys. I'll have you know that I can handle strength perfectly well!" Courtney said as she punched the crap out of a punching bag. John right now was very happy that it wasn't his head.
"Well would you like to explain why you and your friends are always trying to act so tough? I mean everyone already knows that it's a bluff." John huffed. Courtney stood there in silence. "Ha…I thought so." He said triumphantly.
"Do you think we do it just for an act…for attention?" Courtney asked softly, which caught John's attention. Usually when she was talking to him…she was screaming. Courtney continued.
"We don't so it for those reasons. I doubt you would know about being stuck on the bottom of the schools food chain. People are always making jokes about us or teasing and taunting us, we have no choice but to fight back. We have to keep our defenses up or else it hurts even more, especially when you have no one looking out for you who can really make a difference. I used to actually act a lot tougher in school, until I met my boyfriend Kirby. He lives a whole state away sure but we always are talking and helping each other." Courtney let out a sigh. "This whole trip all I've been thinking about is that I'll never get to talk to him again, that I don't have anyone to help me except Emma and those guys." She laughed. "And I don't exactly trust her since she went and got herself arrested." At this John laughed a little before going silent. He was about to say something when Rose and Jack came walking in. The two hid behind some exercise equipment.
"Rose I need to talk to you." Jack said quietly. Courtney and John looked at each other.
"What do we do?" John asked knowing full well that romantic topics were better dealt with from girls. Courtney simply shook her head as if saying she didn't know and not to be sexist right now. The two listened harder to the conversation.
"I'm marrying Cal…I love Cal." Rose said bluntly. John grimaced.
"Ouch…that had to hurt." He looked back over to Courtney who he knew was still thinking about her boyfriend…..Kirby. Was that his real name? John shrugged it off guessing it must be a screen name or something.
"They've got you trapped Rose!" Jack exclaimed. John almost laughed at this.
'Yeah, tell me what trapped means when you're stuck on a ship that you know is going to sink.' He thought to himself as he looked back over at the blonde girl. Her face remained emotionless. 'Jeez she must really miss him…' His thoughts returned to the present when he heard Rose close the door behind her.
Jack was standing there looking defeated at the thought of losing Rose. John sighed inwardly, knowing that Courtney would be no help in her present state. He stood up and walked over to Jack.
"You shouldn't give up on her so easily…" John stated causing Jack to jump from surprise. He hadn't known that there was another person with them in the room.
"Are you stalking me or something?" he asked and John simply shrugged. Even he didn't know what they were doing.
"No I just know about you and Rose….kind of." He sighed not wanting to tell him that he was part of a movie and that he was going to die later tonight. That wouldn't be the best thing for him to hear right now. He continued. "My friend and I are just trying to help you two that's all."
At hearing the word friend Courtney kinda snapped out of her state of mind. She knew he didn't mean it but for some reason it comforted her. 'At least I won't die alone…' she thought as a smile reached her lips. She stood up from behind the electric camel and gave a small wave to Jack.
'About time she snapped out of it.' John thought as he saw the blonde girl come up beside him. He turned back to Jack. "Look Rose is just confused is all, give her some time. She'll come to her senses." He said while he tried to smile, but was having a slight difficulty.
"How do you know about all of this? You two seem like such a perfect couple…" Jack stated causing John too fall over and Courtney's eye to twitch. How could they be mistaken for a couple?
"We're not a couple, we just know each other." Courtney said simply to end all confusion. "And we just have insight on this kind of thing. Now all you have to do is go to the bow of the boat and wait there. Rose will come find you I promise." She said with a grin. Jack sighed before he nodded and watched as Courtney picked John off the ground and left through the door.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Do we seriously look like a couple?" John complained for the fifth time to Courtney who was holding in all her anger as best she could.
"No we don't John he was just confused from the Rose thing…NOW SHUT UP!" she screamed in his face. He looked at her with a scowl before turning back to the railing on the bow. Jack was leaning there and Rose was bound to show up soon. It was also their last time to see the sunset.
"Man you're in a bad mood…" John said quietly while Courtney hit the box they were hiding behind to release some of the anger growing within her.
"Yes I am now be quiet…here she comes." Courtney said as the two watched as Rose walked up to Jack. They saw Jack lead Rose up onto the railing and the two knew that it was going the way the movie was planned.
"By the way Courtney…" John said quietly as she looked at him. "Since you didn't kill me today….I promise to do whatever I can to help you talk to Kirby again." Courtney smiled at this remark.
"Thanks John…" she said as she got up.
They turned to leave only to be met with the flash of a camera. They blinked as the photographer smiled.
"Alright there is a nice picture of the cute couple." He said with a smile. The two spent the next hour chasing him through the corridors for calling them that.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
