A/N- Thanks to everyone who read! Sorry to say, but this is the last chapter =[ Um, I'm pretty sure this one will be longer. So yup. Remember to read and review! Now say that 5 times fast, haha.
Disclaimer: I do not own TDI or the song 'When you're gone' by Avril Lavigne or 'All Around Me' by Flyleaf.
I ran out after that disaster. Mark better be glad he got revenge. I could just STRANGLE him! I guess he got revenge. I am NEVER babysitting Mark again.
I passed the music shop. They always played music in the store. A lot of the time, I would go in there and listen to the music while I was working on homework or studying.
Since I didn't want to go home yet, I went in. The ending of the song 'All Around Me' by Flyleaf was playing. I liked that song. Then, after that, the song 'When You're Gone' by Avril Lavigne played. I loved that song. Once it came on, I realized how much it related to me. I did miss Duncan, because of Mark. I didn't know how much trouble he was in. I've never felt this way about someone. Maybe we were made for each other.
When the song ended, I left. My tears were gone, but my thoughts weren't. Next to the music store was the video game store. I remember when Duncan taught me to play video games. But ever since that night, I haven't touched one. So, I went inside to play one.
Twenty minutes later, someone plopped down next to me and grabbed the other controller. I looked at the person, and gasped. It was Mark.
"What do YOU want? Haven't you done enough?" I snapped.
"I'm want to apologize," He replied. I glared at him.
"Why?" I ask in a mean tone.
"I regret what I did. That, and Duncan threatened to beat me up," Mark said with a laugh. I rolled my eyes, and concentrated on the game.
"Look, I got mad when you embarrassed me in front of Sophie. I didn't mean for it to go this far. I'm-I'm so-sor-sorry," He finally said. I looked at him.
"Good for you," I mumbled, and went back to the game.
"Princess, forgive him," A vice said. I looked to the other side of me, and Duncan stood there. His hands were in his pockets, and he was looking down. It was kind of cute.
"Hey Duncan," I said.
"Oh, talk to the criminal with the green mohawk, but not me?! That's bull man!" Mark complained.
"Dude, she's a girl!" Duncan said.
"Oh, that's coming from the 16-year-old who called the elderly women a few houses down an alien," Mark retorted and smirked.
"Stop! Both of you!" I said. They both looked at me.
"Okay princess," Duncan said. He grabbed the controller from Mark.
"Hey!" Mark yelled. Duncan laughed, and looked at me.
"You've been practicing. Challenge me," he commanded.
"Well, technically, I haven't been practicing. I just started playing," I stutter.
"So? Let's talk a round," He oljected. I gulped. Yup, I'm pretty sure my butt would be whooped. Oh god.
"Um, no thanks," I said. Mark laughed.
"What? You chicken?" He asked.
"No!" I snapped.
"Then play," He said.
"No!" I object.
"Bock, bock, bock, bock!" He teased.
"Fine!" I yelled, and picked up my control.
"Ready princess?" Duncan asked. I nodded once. "GO!"
We played and we played. Level by level, it was very close. But the last level was for all the marbles. And guess who won that?
"YES!" I screamed. I ended up winning.I didn't know how, I just knew I did.
"Huh, wha-?" Duncan said in confusion.
"Told you I wasn't chicken!" I yelled. By now, everyone in the store was looking at me. But I didn't care. Not at all.
"Okay princess, you win. Um, Mark, go get the winner and loser a coke," Duncan said.
"Are you going to be all mushy-gushy?" Asked Mark. Duncan pushed him.
"What are you staring at? Mind your own business!" Duncan yelled. Everyone stopped staring.
"Um, thanks," I said. He nodded.
"So, about tonight-" I cut Duncan off my planting a kiss square on his lips. I broke it apart a minute later.
"I enjoyed it," I replied and hugged Duncan. He was frozen.
Well then," he finally said.
"What? You have to admit that tonight was good," I said.
"Except for the part where we got caught," He replied. I nodded. In the background, I saw Mark with 2 cokes. One bottle was empty though.
"So, you better call me soon," I said with a smirk, and left.
"Will do princess!" He yelled. I paused, and turned around.
"My name, is COURTNEY!" I shrieked, waved, and left the video game store to go home.
"Coke?" I heard Mark say. I smirked again.
