"Duncan, get your sorry ass down here now!"

Courtney stood at the foot of the stairs, arms folded tight, her patience long gone by now. She swiftly turned on her heel, her elegant hair swirling and the long diamond earrings swaying back and forth.

Her manicured nails clicked against her black clutch as she sat impatiently on the sofa. Her posture was abruptly arched, contrasting with her silk black dress and glitter heels.

She huffed once more glancing down at her wrist; 6:32.

"DUNCA-"

"Close the pie hole, I am coming down."

Courtney stood up and twirled around, watching Duncan intensely as he walked down the stairs.

His hair was neat, all his piercings off, and most surprisingly the suit fit him like a charm. Courtney had never seen Duncan is a suit before. She was, speechless- her jaw slightly askew from her small gasp and her eyes light up with joy. Courtney's aggressive posture relaxed beneath his newfound glamour.

Duncan uncomfortably adjusted his necktie, stretching out the collar for more room to breathe. His lip twitched slightly at his discomfort, "I look like one of the Men in Black, not in a good way either."

Courtney shifted her weight, still keeping her eyes on Duncan as she whispered, "wow".

Duncan snarled at her, slightly annoyed at the fact she wasn't rushing for him to leave already, "what?"

She didn't respond, she just kept staring and he persisted, still attempting to maneuver out of his suit, "what? Do I have something on my face?"

Courtney eyes snapped out of her trance, she huffed placed her nose in the air then glanced back at Duncan, a smile hidden beneath her exterior, "When this ceremony is over, we should really have hot angry make-up sex."

Duncan's brows furrowed, his eyes shot back at her, he opened his mouth to answer but nothing came out. Their previous argument the du prior had left a bad taste in both their mouths for the past day. They both dreaded going to the banquet with one another while on these terms. Neither wanted nor thought about backing down. He glanced at her once more, straining his brain to think of an attempt to figure out the proper words to say.

Although despite all his thinking he responded within a few seconds of registering her request. His lips turned sour, "don't objectify me."

And with that he swiftly waltzed past Courtney opening the door and headed out. Courtney huffed, once again speechless and let out a small laugh in disbelief and followed Duncan out the door to the three hour ceremony they were to attend.
