*dodges harpoon* HEY! Okay, I totally deserve that. I've had a crazy case of 'I'm too lazy to click on Microsoft Word-itis'. I'm recovering nicely, thanks for your concern. This one shot was inspired by my schools annual ski trip to Mount St. Louis and Moonstone! Enjoy!
Courtney sighed, as she adjusted her wool knit purple and pink toque. She nervously glanced out the tinted window of the cheap bus their supervisor Mr. McLean called transportation, and bit her lip once she saw the white puffy flakes whipping the large amount of snow on the already on the ground.
She could barely make out her surroundings, due to the small amount of light. The sun hadn't risen yet, because it was only five a.m. The odd streetlight added an orangey tint to the atmosphere.
Courtney sighed and tugged on the collar of her cashmere sweater, and closed her eyes.
She wouldn't think about it… She couldn't! Courtney forced a smile, and sighed again.
When she first heard about the annual sophomore ski trip, she had no interest whatsoever. But that all changed once she overheard Duncan, HER boyfriend, boasting to a bunch of equally dimwitted, perverted, moronic- she could go for ages. But when she overheard Duncan boasting about how many "snow bunnies" he could score by the end of the trip, she did some research on what the term "snow bunny" meant.
Snow bunnies; Hot chicks found on the snow slopes of the world.
Courtney felt her eye twitch when she found out that "snow bunnies" have nothing to do with rabbits! Ugh!
So, that's what got her in this mess. Trying to keep Duncan on a short leash, by keeping his dog collared neck with in yanking distance if she caught him moving his gaze even for a SPLIT second veering towards one of those bimbos.
If he even thought for ONE second he could get away with ogling one of those big butted, big breasted, big-
"Babe, you okay?" Duncan asked, placing one of his gloved hands over top of hers. She snapped out her mental psychotic rant, and stopped her face from turning any redder than it already was.
Courtney looked to him, and forced herself not to glare and scream at Duncan like she oh, SO wanted to. "I'm fine…" She sighed.
Duncan pursed his lips, and rubbed her hand with his thumb. "You okay Princess? You seem… Off."
"I'm fine! Totally fine! I mean, what makes you think I'm NOT fine, because that's what I am, fine!" Courtney snapped.
Duncan stared at her for a few seconds, before sighing and shaking his head. He looked back to the front of the bus, but grinned when he saw his best bud Gwen.
She was smirking, and crumpling up a piece of paper. She stopped when she felt his gaze on her, and looked to him. Her smirk grew, as she turned back to her target.
Gwen narrowed her eyes, and drew back her arm, before releasing the paper ball. It flew four rows, before beaming Trent in the back of the head. Her and Duncan burst out laughing, making Courtney sigh and roll her eyes while Trent turned around glaring, and growling.
"Just because we're not going out anymore, DOESN'T MAKE IT OKAY, OKAY?" He shouted, before turning back around and huffing.
Gwen and Duncan snickered, and high fived making Courtney scoff.
"You two are SO immature." Courtney said. She crossed her arms, while Duncan and Gwen simultaneously raised an eyebrow at her, while she continued. "Act your age, not your shoe size."
Gwen frowned at her, before rolling her own eyes. "And why don't you act your brain size?"
Courtney gasped, and leaned out past Duncan so she could glare at the goth personally. "I'll have you know, that I," she stated, pointing to herself proudly, "have a perfect 4.0 GPA, have an IQ of 188, and-"
"Are a CIT?" Gwen said, dryly.
"And YOU'RE a goth FREAK!"
"Thank you." Gwen grinned, crossing her arms proudly.
"Ugh! Are you mocking me!" Courtney shrieked.
Gwen scowled, and crossed her arms. "That's what I intended," she mumbled.
"Duncan! You aren't going to let her get away with that, are you?" Courtney yelled, turning to her boyfriend. "Duncan?"
Courtney continued to yell at scream at him much the rest of the patrons on the bus' chagrin, while he stared straight a head of him with his arms crossed…and his iPod in his sleeve, and the earbuds cleverly hidden in his toque.
"Hey Courtney…" Bridgette murmured, resting her arms on the seats Courtney and Duncan were sitting at, and letting her chin rest on top of her hands.
"Ugh, can you believe him and Gwen? She is totally luring him away from me with her goth girl…ness!" Courtney seethed, waving her arms in the air to prove her point further.
"Maybe he's just a bit out of it… It is barely six a.m." Bridgette pointed out.
"Still! You should SEE the way he treats her!"
"You mean nicely?"
"YES! I'M his girlfriend!"
"It could be way worse, it's not like he's cheating on you." Bridgette yawned. Her olive green eyes fluttered closed, as she started catch some Zs before she would shred down some black diamond hills.
Courtney pouted, before spinning towards the window. Her eyes widened once she caught site of their destination.
Her jaw dropped once she caught site of some of the hills. All of the students on the bus, save for Courtney, erupted into cheers and hollers, ready for their adrenaline packed trip
"Alrighty students!" Chris McLean yelled, partially silencing the teens. He stood up and walked into the aisle, and adjusted the hood of his white designer snowsuit.
"I will hand you your lift tickets. Make sure they are visible, and that you do NOT loose it, because you can not ski or snowboard without it."
"Be safe, stay with another Pearson student at all times, and the most important rule?"
"HAVE FUN!" Everyone else called back.
Chris furrowed his brow, and looked at them confused. "That wasn't even close to what I was gonna say! But, I guess fun is important too."
He chuckled, and wiped an imaginary tear away from his eye, before sighing contently. Chris walked down the aisle distributing the tickets.
Once he had finished, everyone excitedly exited the bus, except for Courtney who was feeling extremely uneasy and nervous.
And maybe even scared…
But, she wouldn't let anyone, not even herself know that! So, Courtney put on her normal façade of confidence, and exited the bus. When she caught sight of Duncan, she grinned despite her nausea and walked up to him, the crunch of the soft, fresh snow under her boots sounding as she walked.
"Aww thanks Duncan…" Courtney cooed, while he took her gear out of the bus for her.
"No problem, babe." He grunted, as he carried the heavy gear.
Courtney's eyes traveled to Gwen, who was scowling to herself as she took out her black skull and cross bone skis. Courtney smirked, and stuck one of her hands in her pocket and used to other as a megaphone.
"Thank you Duncan for doing this EXTREMELY SWEET thing for me, like the CARING and LOVING boyfriend I know you are, that is MINE!" She shouted while Gwen huffed and lugged her gear towards the locker room.
Duncan rolled his eyes and sighed. That chick would be the death of him… He grabbed the last of his and Courtney's equipment, and started to carry it to the locker room with Courtney hot on his tail.
After they entered the busy locker room, Courtney stared at her surroundings with wide eyes; teenagers were everywhere, and there were so many snaps heard. Courtney eyes traveled to Bridgette and Geoff, who had just changed into their snowsuits and were heading out the door to the mountains.
Ezekiel, Beth, Noah, and Cody had all finished strapping into their ski boots- wait…those things didn't look like normal boots, what the heck!
Courtney's left eye twitched as she continued to apprehensively stare around the room at different people and their gear.
Her body started to shake, and her breathing became shallow.
"Courtney…"
"WHAT!" She screamed, jumping, and looking at Duncan with wide eyes.
His brow furrowed, as he finished doing up his boots. "I asked you if you needed help putting on your ski boots…those suckers are hard to put on."
"Y-yeah… Sure… Thanks." She muttered. Courtney slipped into her snow pants, and sat down on the bench.
"Hey… Princess… Are you sure you're okay?" Duncan asked worriedly.
Courtney flashed him a fake smile. "Never better…" She lied, through clenched teeth.
Duncan sighed, as he unsnapped her left boot. "Alright, if you say so…"
He placed the boot on her foot, and started to snap the buttons. Courtney's eyes widened at the unfamiliar shape and feel of the heavy, tight boot, but held her tongue.
"Is that too tight, or anything?" Duncan asked, as he prepared the next boot.
"No, it's fine!" Courtney replied, while Duncan slid her foot into the next boot.
"There." He smiled, clasping the next set of buttons in their place. He held out an arm for Courtney, and she took it and tried to pull herself up. But she almost pulled him down with her as she fell back down on the bench.
Duncan let out a breath, and finally got her to her feet. Courtney blushed and chuckled nervously while she put on her mittens. She put her helmet on over her toque, and her goggles while Duncan did the same.
Duncan started to walk towards the exit. Courtney grunted as she wobbled trying to carry her skis and poles.
"Princess, you coming?" Duncan called standing just outside the door.
Courtney grunted again, and tried to walk, but was having a lot of difficulty. "In a minute… Let me just… I…"
"Here." Trent offered, helping her stand. He smiled, and took her skis and held them in the same arm as his own, and looped her ski poles on his left arm. Trent walked out of the room, and unlocked her skis for her, placed them parallel, stuck her poles in the snow, before unlocking his own, getting them on and skiing towards the lift with Cody that would take them to the intermediate hills.
Courtney watched as he skied off, and tried to slip on her skis, failing miserably. She huffed, and tried once again, but she lost her balance and fell face first into the snow.
Duncan laughed, and finished strapping in his mount foot onto his snowboard, and made his way over to her while she lifted her head and spit out a mouthful of snow.
He helped her to her feet, and draped one of her arms around his neck to help stabilize her, and smiled.
"Okay Court, you need to kick your toe into the mount, then fall back onto your heel. When you hear a click, it's on." Duncan instructed.
Courtney wiped her nose, then nodded and did as she was told. Once she heard a click, she did the same for her other foot.
"Yes! I'm ready!" Courtney cheered.
Duncan chuckled. "Well alright, then! So, I decided, we're gonna go on that hill first, kay babe?"
Duncan pointed to a large, steep, black diamond hill by the name of "Dawn"
Courtney's stared blankly at the hill, and silently gulped. "…What?"
"Oh come on Princess, what's the matter? You CHICKEN?" He teased.
"I am NOT chicken!"
"Then let's go!"
"But… It's s-so high…"
"Bawk bawk bawk bawk BAWK…" Duncan mocked, taunting her.
Courtney growled, and crossed her arms. "FINE!"
Duncan grabbed her arm, and started to pull her towards the ski lift. Courtney whimpered quietly, as her body shook out of fear.
Courtney shivered and snuggled closer to Duncan once their lift had reached the halfway point.
Courtney buried her face into his jacket to try and protect it more from the wind, and snow whipping at it.
"Hey... There's Harold." Courtney remarked, looking down at the hill below them.
Duncan smirked. "HEY HAROLD!" He shouted. Harold looked up, then lost his balance and tumbled to the ground with a loud thud, causing snow to fly everywhere. LeShawna, who had been skiing behind him, couldn't turn to avoid him, and ended up tripping over him. Duncan busted out laughing, making Courtney roll her eyes.
Duncan lifted their safety bar and Courtney gasped. "D-D-Duncan! Wh-what are y-you doing!"
"Chill Court! We're at the top, it's our turn to get off!" Duncan responded.
"Oh… I knew that."
"Sure you did, Princess…"
"I did!"
"Whatever, Court."
Courtney and Duncan stood up, and let the chair lift push them down the small slope and over to the hill.
Courtney nervously bit her lip, and her heart beat loud in her chest. "D-Duncan… I can't do this."
"What are you talking about? 'Course you can." Duncan said, strapping in his other foot.
"No Duncan, I CAN'T do this! I…I…" Courtney stammered. She closed her eyes and whimpered.
"IDON'TKNOWHOWTOSKI!" She blurted out.
Duncan stared at her, before sighing. "Aw, damn… Court…"
Courtney sniffled, and looked down. "I'm sorry! I just… I didn't want to admit it! Winter sports are NOT my forte… I hope I don't ruin your trip…"
"Oh, no, Courtney! You could never do that! C'mere." Duncan murmured, wrapping his arms around her and hugging her close. "Now, I'm gonna teach you how to ski, kay? By the end of the day, you'll be shredding the slopes like moi." He grinned.
Courtney smiled, while Duncan hopped on his board so he was now facing her perpendicular to the precipitous hill. He slid down a few feet, and cupped his mouth.
"Okay Princess, so you're gonna wanna bend your knees, turn your toes inwards, so it looks like a triangle!"
"Scalene, isosceles, equilateral or right angle triangle!" Courtney called back.
Duncan dropped his hands and sighed. "Just… A triangle!"
"O…kay…"
Courtney pursed her lips in concentration, and did as Duncan instructed. She slowly made her way down the small incline, and past Duncan. Her face blanked, and she started to panic.
"Wait, Duncan…how do I stop! Duncan! AAAHHH!" She screamed, flailing her arms.
"Don't panic! Slowly start to spread your legs…" Duncan shouted.
"THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!" Geoff hollered snowboarding past him and Courtney, with Bridgette giggling and descending close behind him.
Duncan face palmed, while Courtney continued to scream as she descended down the hill, with more speed.
"Slowly start to spread your legs like I told you, and you'll start to slow down!" Duncan yelled.
"HEEEEELLLP!"
Duncan groaned and took off to go help her.
Once Duncan caught up to Courtney and slowed her down, they were standing horizontal to the hill to avoid sliding down.
"Okay…" Duncan panted. "Let's try this again. Slowly start to come to me…"
Duncan boarded down a small part of the mountain, and stopped at a flat clearing where the mountain split into separate slopes, where it would be easier to stop for Courtney.
Courtney let out a breath, and slowly started to ski down the smaller incline of the larger hill. She felt her legs tremble but refused to wipeout! For now…
"Y-you promise that you'll be there to catch me if I f-fall?" Courtney questioned, looking down to her skis.
Duncan smiled at her, then raised an eyebrow and smirked when he heard a few shrill giggles. His smirk grew when he saw a few attractive girls flirt with him. He winked, and their giggles became louder.
The three girls then put their goggles back on, skied/snowboarded down the hill to the opposite trail on the right. The leader motioned for Duncan to follow, and he purred. Duncan smirked, and then followed them down the trail.
Courtney continued to stare down at her skis in concentration, but looked up when she noticed she was picking up quite a lot of speed.
Courtney looked to her left, then her right, and frowned when she didn't see Duncan.
"Duncan! DUNCAN!" Courtney screamed, before her left foot accidentally glided over her right. Courtney gasped, and tried to fix her skis and make them parallel, which she succeeded at. Although, it did make her start to go faster.
Courtney's face blanked, as her velocity increased and she zoomed down the hill. She screamed at the top of her lungs, narrowly evading the signpost directing which hill was where on each half of the mountain, by veering to the left.
"Whoa… WHOA! AHHHH!" She yelped, as her skis left the ground for a moment after she skied over a small hill.
Courtney flailed her arms wildly, trying to regain her balance. However, her left foot crossed over top of her right, causing her to trip and fall forwards.
Courtney flipped head over heels, and slid a few feet in the snow. Her legs were sprawled out and her skis laid inwards and jammed in the snow. Courtney slowly opened her eyes, and lifted her chin out of the snow. She spit out the flakes that had gotten in her mouth, and wiped her lips. She shook her head to rid it of any more snow, and pulled the collar of her coat to rid it of snow as well.
Courtney shakily sat up, and shivered. She lifted her goggles, and squinted when the brightness of the snowy hill that was in front of her entered her pupils.
"D-Duncan?" Courtney called. She wiped the corners of her mouth for any lingering flakes of snow, before trying to get back up.
Courtney grumbled as she tried to stand back up. After many failed attempts, she sighed and sat alone in the snow.
She refused to call for help; it would make her look like a total wimp! She sniffled, and looked down at her lap. Courtney jumped when she felt someone tap her shoulder. She looked up, and met turtle green eyes.
Trent stared down at her… She looked so… helpless. Trent let out a small smile, and held out a hand for her. "Need help?"
Courtney stared up at him a few moments, and blinked away the few tears that had clouded her vision. She glared at him, before huffing. "I don't need your help. I can get up on my OWN, thank you very much!"
Courtney tried her hardest to stand back up, but her butt ended up lodged back into the snow. She pouted and crossed her arms and turned away from Trent.
"Courtney, I'm trying to help you… At least let me help you stand up." Trent sighed.
Courtney slowly turned back to him, and looked up into his eyes. She reluctantly took his hand, and he helped her to her feet. Courtney jerked forwards after loosing her balance, and wrapped her arms instinctively around Trent's neck to help keep her standing.
Trent placed his hands on her hips to steady her as his eyes widened out of alarm and concern. "Whoa! You alright?"
Courtney tore her face away from his toned chest- she never really noticed how muscular it was, she could even feel some under his jacket and layers of clothing…
"Uh… I'm fine. Thanks. Whoa!" She said, wobbling a bit again.
"It's okay! I gotcha…" Trent murmured, stabling her. He pulled her body closer to him; Courtney's pelvis made contact with his and their lips were a mere three centimetres apart… Courtney's eyes widened when she noticed their current position.
Her arms wrapped around his neck, his hands on her waist…
"U-uh…" Courtney stuttered, quickly looked down.
"Oh! Uh, put your skis flat on the hill, and stand up." Trent said.
Courtney did as instructed, and lost her balance and thrashed her arms around.
"Easy… Easy… Just relax."
Courtney calmed herself, and let out a breath. "Thanks."
"No problem." Trent replied, before grabbing Courtney's ski poles and handing them to her. He grabbed his own, and prepared to take off.
"Wait! Trent!" She shouted.
Trent stopped, and turned back to her. "Yeah, Court?"
"I…I… Have you seen Duncan? He was supposed to be…skiing with m-me, but he disappeared…"
"Really? When I was at the top of the hill, I saw him waiting for someone, then follow a few girls down the right trail. I assumed you were one of them." Trent responded, with a shrug.
He soon regretted saying that, when he saw the look on Courtney's face. It was really hurt…
"He…ditched me…for a bunch…of… TRAMPS? UGH!" Courtney fumed, her previous look of anguish melting away.
Trent stared at her wide eyed while she continued to rant waving her arms rowdily.
"UGH THAT…THAT… JERK! Oooh that is SO like him, I KNEW I couldn't trust that…jerk! When I see him, I am going to grab hold of him, and hit him! Repeatedly! Oh he is going to get it! He's going to wish he was NEVER born; I am going to HURT HIM! We are going to be soooo through; I am NOT taking this anymore! He was supposed to teach ME how to ski!" Courtney screamed.
Trent furrowed his brow, and analyzed Courtney's psychotic rant. "Wait, you don't know how to ski?"
Courtney stared blankly at Trent with wide onyx eyes. "Uh… Of course I know how to ski!" She lied. Courtney smiled nervously at him. "W-what makes you think otherwise!"
"You just said-"
"What?"
"Courtney, you-"
"Huh?"
"COURTNEY!" Trent shouted, shaking her by her shoulders.
Courtney stared at him wide eyed before flashing him a meek smile. "Yes, Trent?"
"I asked you before, and I'll ask again; you don't know how to ski?"
Courtney winced as she stared at him, and then sighed. "Okay! Fine! I can't ski, okay? Are you happy now!" Courtney snapped. "Go ahead and laugh…"
Trent's expression softened when he saw how…embarrassed she was. Courtney thought she knew how to do everything, when in reality, she couldn't. But she refused to let herself think that! She was so self-assured, and if she wasn't, to her, it could be a really scary thing.
"I'm not going to laugh at you, Courtney… Hey, not everyone can do everything. No one's perfect." Trent remarked.
Courtney opened her mouth to protest, but Trent sighed, cutting her off. He looked her in the eyes. "No matter how much they try to be, no one is. Now, come on. I'm gonna teach you how to ski, alright?"
Courtney sustained her look of understanding, and nodded mutely.
"Great." Trent smiled. "Okay, first, I'll show you how to take off your skis."
"Wait… You can take OFF your skis?" Courtney gaped.
Trent sighed, and slid a hand down his face. "…We've got lots of work to do."
"Like this?"
"No… You gotta bend your knees more. Like this."
"I am doing that!"
"No, your knees are still too stiff."
"Ugh… Like this?"
"No… Uh… Here, I'll show you. …Now, sit in my lap."
"Okay, no. I may want to learn how to ski, but I have to draw the line somewhere…"
Trent rolled his eyes, and sighed. He pulled up his sleeve slightly, and glanced at his wristwatch.
"Courtney… It's almost time for us to go to the chalet. We need hurry up!"
Courtney sniffled, and wiped the tears out of the corner of her eyes. Her nose was red and puffy, her cheeks were rosy, and her lips were dry. She was soaked, cold, tired, and just wanted to go home.
"Trent, I'm tired, wet, I can't do this!" She wailed.
"Yes Courtney, you can!" Trent encouraged. He grabbed her hand, and kissed the top of it. "What happened to the Courtney that said, 'I'm Courtney Bailey, I can do anything! I was a CIT!'"
Courtney's lower lip quivered, before she erupted into a fit of tears. Her small frame shook from the force of her crying.
Trent wrapped his arms around Courtney, and rested his chin on her shoulder while she cried into his chest.
"Alright Courtney. This is it; time to put what you've learned to the test. You ready?" Trent asked, as he prepared to venture down the end of the hill.
"No." Courtney pouted. She put her goggles on over her eyes, and grabbed her ski poles. "But, I don't have a choice, do I?" She added bitterly, as she got into the stance Trent showed her.
"Nope! Ready…"
"No!"
"Set…"
"NO!"
"Goooo!"
"OH DEAR…!"
Trent glided down the hill, turning when he was supposed to with ease. He looked back behind him, and saw Courtney fairing pretty well herself. She was hunched over and stable, her knees were bent, and her toes were pointed inwards; the basic stance for beginners.
"WOO HOO!" Courtney cheered, after coming to a stop at the bottom. She smiled as she took off her goggles. She grinned at Trent, and he smiled back.
"Y-you did it!" Trent chuckled.
"No, WE did it!" Courtney beamed, grabbing Trent's collar and crashing her lips onto his.
Trent's eyes widened but soon closed. He kissed back, and tilted Courtney's chin upwards slightly to deepen the kiss. Courtney slowly and tenderly started to nibble on Trent's bottom lip, and he moaned.
Courtney's eyes widened, and she pulled away abruptly and stared up at him. "Oh my gosh… I'm sorry! That was… a…an accident!" Courtney stammered.
Trent chuckled and smiled at her, and slowly drew his hand away from her face and placed it behind his head awkwardly. "Y-yeah… Accident. Uh… Why don't we go get out of our wet snowsuits and go warm ourselves up with some hot chocolate?"
"S-sure… lets go." Courtney replied. She pushed off, and started to cross country ski towards the locker room.
Trent blinked, and then bit his lip uneasily. "Damn…" He sighed, before skiing off towards the locker room as well.
Courtney took off her skis, following the procedure Trent showed her, and was able to get them off with ease. She picked up her skis, locked them together, swung them over her shoulder, and waddled into the locker room. She sat down, and tried to pull off her ski boots, but those suckers just wouldn't come off! Courtney grunted, and tried again. But it was to no avail.
"Here…allow me." Trent smiled, getting on his knees and starting to unbuckle her boots.
Courtney blushed, and wordlessly nodded. She closed her eyes and sighed. "Look Trent, you're a nice guy and I really appreciate what you did for me today…but that kiss-"
"Was a total accident, a spur of the moment…" Trent finished. He sighed after pulling off Courtney's boots, and handing her her normal ones.
Courtney smiled at him. "Good, so you understand…"
"Yeah, I get it." Trent said, getting up and sitting beside her. He started to undo his boots while Courtney slid out of her snow pants, jacket, scarf, hat, and mittens. She pulled on her normal boots, and carried her stuff to her locker.
Trent yanked off all his equipment, and got up and started to walk to the locker room… But he stopped dead in his tracks when he caught sight of Courtney. Her back was turned, giving Trent a clear view of her ass, covered by her tight grey leggings.
Trent continued to stare at her wide eyed, fighting back a nosebleed. He swallowed the lump in his throat, and quickly made his way to his locker to avoid getting more turned on than necessary.
He shoved his things into the locker, and sighed as he closed it. He walked back over to Courtney, and tapped her shoulder. Courtney turned and smiled at him. Trent smiled back.
"Ready?" He asked.
Courtney nodded. "Ready." She confirmed. They walked up the stairs, and headed into the cafeteria to go warm up.
"I'm here, Mr. McLean." Courtney said as he checked her name off his clipboard.
"Nice, cool. And Courtney… Call me Chris." He insisted, before shooing her off.
"I'm here too." Trent chirped, walking over to him. Chris nodded, and checked off his name. He continued to draw some things on the sheet, and Trent looked at him confused. "Dude… What are you doing?"
"I'm doodling a picture of a rocket ship." Chris replied as if it was the most OBVIOUS thing in the world. Which it wasn't.
"Aren't you supposed to be making sure we're all here…?"
"Yeah yeah, whatever. Trent my man, I'm focusing on what's important here!"
"More important than our safety and well being?"
"Yes! Now shoo!"
"Whatever…" Trent mumbled, before turning around and looking for where Courtney had sat down. He smiled when he spotted her waving him over, and walked to her table and sat down across from her.
"Hey." He greeted.
"Hey. I got us some hot chocolate." Courtney replied, placing a Styrofoam cup full of the hot liquid in front of him. Courtney blew on hers to cool it down before she took a sip.
"Thanks. So… Whaddya wanna talk about?" Trent asked, sheepishly grinning.
Courtney pulled her cup away from her mouth, and smiled. "I dunno… What about you?"
Trent chuckled, and smiled at her. "Court… You gotta a little something…" He remarked, gesturing towards his upper lip.
Courtney furrowed her brow, before she licked her lips. "Did I get it?"
Trent looked down, then back at her. "Uh… Here… I'll get it." He murmured.
Trent leaned across the table and kissed her gently. Courtney closed her eyes and kissed back without hesitation, and deepened the kiss by cupping Trent's face and pulling him closer to her. Trent bit down slightly on her bottom lip, earning a soft, barely audible moan from her. Courtney opened her mouth slightly, and Trent tenderly slid his tongue into her mouth and started to explore her mouth. Every inch of it was new to him.
Courtney looped her fingers through Trent's messy, damp, raven black hair, and pulled on it slightly whenever Trent would nibble or bite down on her lip. He wasn't rough with her. He was caring… And gentle… And made sure she wasn't uncomfortable at all. He respected her.
Courtney broke the kiss and blinked her eyes a few times smiling, before getting up and sitting in Trent's lap. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his again, feeling the sparks jolt trough her previously numb body.
Trent continued to kiss her, while his hands caressed her slightly tense, and firm body. Her curves astounded him. He massaged her shoulders before resting his hands on her ass.
Trent pulled away at the same time as her, and smiled blissfully at her. "W-wow…" He moaned.
Courtney blushed, and bit her lip. "Okay… So, maybe that wasn't an accident…"
They laughed, until Courtney gasped. Her eyes widened when she caught site of Duncan, with three conspicuous girls draped all over him, like…some… Cheap ratty drapes!
Courtney growled as she got up off of Trent's lap. She plastered on a fake smile before approaching him.
"Hello, Duncan." She said icily, through gritted teeth.
Duncan winced, and smiled at her nervously. "Oh! Uh, hey Princess…" He stuttered. "I was looking for you all over!"
"Uh huh. Well, I just wanna let you know that you abandoning me halfway down the hill for some hookers," She spat smiling at each one of the girls. They glared back at her, before continuing to cuddle Duncan, a bit more feverishly.
"Was the best thing that happened to me! Oh, but don't come crying to me when you contract some kind of anal disease from these skanks." Courtney continued. She narrowed her eyes at him, while the trio of girls gasped at her harsh words.
"Princess, please, I-"
"No! I'm sick of you thinking you can parade around and act like it's OKAY to go flirt with other girls when we're dating! So, I'll stop being such a burden and leave you be. Sayonara asshole." Courtney hissed, stomping back over to Trent and hugging him.
"YES!" Gwen cheered, standing up from her table. She grinned and threw her hands in the air. Her face blanked once she realized what she just did, and all the eyes on her, and sat back down blushing madly.
"Court, that was so awesome!" Trent chuckled, hugging her tighter.
Courtney smiled and sniffled. "Yeah… So… Where does that leave us?"
"…I dunno. Where do you want it to leave us?"
"I dunno…"
Trent smiled and pulled away. He grabbed both of her hands and his smile grew. "I know… You…wanna be my girlfriend?"
Courtney giggled, and nodded. "Sure..."
"Really?"
"Yeah…"
Trent smiled and kissed her forehead. He intertwined their fingers and grinned at her. "Cool…"
"Alrighty students! Everyone have a nice trip?" Chris questioned, standing in front of the exit.
A few people called back yes, while most called back no, or groaned.
"My tongue got schtuck to a powle!" Bridgette drawled, holding an ice pack to her tongue while Geoff rubbed her back comfortingly.
"Me and Zeke banged heads…" Beth moaned.
"I got run over by LeShawna…" Harold whimpered, gripping his newly broken arm.
"I said I was sorry, baby!" LeShawna groaned. She smiled and wrapped an arm around him. "Want me to kiss where it hurts?"
Harold chuckled, and smiled slyly at her. "Now that you mention it, my-"
"Don't say it!"
Chris rolled his eyes while other students yelled out complaints. He whistled, instantly silencing them.
"Enough! Make sure you grab all of your belongings," Chris declared, before narrowing his eyes. "Because we're not turning the bus around and coming back this time because someone forgot their straightening iron."
"Lindsaaaay." Chris drawled, glaring at the blonde bombshell.
Lindsay scowled and crossed her arms. "Okay, that happened, like, ONE time." She protested.
"It happened SIX TIMES!" Everyone else exclaimed.
"Okay everyone. Bus time!" Chris grinned.
"You didn't have to carry my stuff, you know…" Courtney said. She stood in front of the bus with her arms crossed, while Trent shoved the last of their belongings into the storage compartment on the side of their bus.
He flashed her a smile, and wiped his hands on his pants. "It's okay. I wanted to."
"Thanks Trent..."
"For what?"
Courtney pecked his cheek, and smiled. She pulled him in for a hug. "Everything." She whispered.
"Aww you're leaving?"
"What?"
"Don't go!"
Duncan rolled his eyes and sighed. "For the last time, we'll stay in touch over Facebook and stuff… Stay frosty, babes. Later Anya." He said, hugging her.
"Bye Julie." Duncan sighed, hugging her as well.
Duncan approached the girls 'leader' and smirked. She smirked back. "See ya, Casey…I'm gonna mmph!" He exclaimed as she pounced on him and kissed him furiously.
Courtney scowled at the sight, then scoffed. "What a tool. He thinks he can get ANY girl he want just because he's incredibly sexy." She sneered. She crossed her arms. "As. If."
Trent stared at her awkwardly for a few seconds before scratching the back of his neck. "So, uhm… Are you gonna… uh…miss him?" He asked.
Courtney paused to think for a few seconds, before sighing. "Maybe..." She admitted.
Trent looked down, and scratched his forearm.
Courtney looked at him, and smiled. "But, I've got you now."
She grabbed his chin and tilted it upwards, forcing him to look her in the eyes. "And to me, that's a million times better."
Trent smiled back warmly, and captured her lips on his for a short, sweet kiss. He followed her onto the bus, and sat down beside her. He grasped her hand and held it tenderly.
For the entire three hour bus ride home…
AWW! This, I think, is my LONGEST and best one shot EVAH! Eh, the ending could've been better, but I am really proud of myself for putting this much detail into this! It's the least I can do to make up for the delay and laziness.
PLEASE REVIEW! Oh, and tell me your fave parts, I LOVE when you do that! Makes my day!
Hopefully I won't be as lazy, and the next update will be sooner.
Love, Alexex!
