A/N: Sorry I messed up so much on the last chapter, a revised copy coming soon to a fan fiction near you. Also, I'm pretty sad because my new kitten creases my old cat. Spice, the old one, is hissing and growling. She's ever done that… aw well. Enough about me and my problems. This chapter is all Duncan's POV and him planning "Operation Courtney 2.0" I love that name so much! Lol! Enjoy!

Duncan's POV

When we walked out of the closet, Bridgette looked worried. Geoff was the first to speak, "Uh, dudes? That wasn't even seven minutes? Are you okay?"

Courtney responded before I could make the smart ass comment I had in mind, "Yeah. It's only a game. It was close to seven, right?" She sounded worried.

I knew this was because of her competitiveness, but I couldn't help to say something. I'm going to get slapped… or worse… aw well. This is just too good. "Princess didn't want to go over seven so you guys didn't have any idea about what we were actually doing in there. Unless, princess'll tell you herself. Well, babe?"

Of course I got smacked… but damn! I didn't think she could smack that hard! Trent laughed. "Good to see the old Courtney's back and with a vengeance, no less." We all laughed. Well… "we all" that is not Courtney.

"Pay up Trent. And I mean now," Gwen had said.

He groaned, "Fine! Here you go, fifty bucks."

"Umm… what's that for?" Courtney asked reluctantly. She obviously didn't really want to know.

"When Trent and I saw you two were here together, we made a bet to see if by the end of the party you two would still be a couple. I said no," Gee. Thanks Gwen! You're so supportive.

"Well, Trent, man. Thanks for staying by my side," I said. "Then again… the party's not over yet," I said smirking at Courtney.

She didn't bite, "Not for us it isn't. We're going home! Now!"Damn she could be forceful… that's just hot.

"Yes, mom," I said sarcastically. She groaned. "See you guys later!" I called after us.

As I walked to the car, I decided I would drive. "What do you think you're doing?" Courtney asked.

"Being a former CIT, I was positive you knew what driving looked like. I'm disappointed, princess."

She rolled her eyes, "Duncan, you've had beer. I don't trust you behind the wheel."

"Sheesh, don't worry, babe. I'm below the legal limit, promise."

"Whatever." after a while she was silent. I was getting worried.

"So, uh, where to?" I asked. I knew what she would say though…

"Home. My home! I'm tired."

"Touchy, touchy." I smirked. "So, what are we doing for our next date?"

"Date?"

"Yeah, remember? This was our first. Where to for our second?"

"You do realize that you can't completely disregard what happened during that… game, right?"

"I intend to, thanks."

She sighed. "Duncan, what I meant is that I think we missed each other because we were the closest one to the other on the island."

"Whatever," I snorted.

When we arrived to her house. I walked her up to the door. She didn't look like she wanted me to, but I walked in with her anyway. "Um… Duncan? You can leave now," she said.

"Oh, I know I can. But seeing how I can also stay, I think I will." She groaned as I followed her into the living room. She glared as I flopped on the couch.

"You going to sit down?" I asked. She reluctantly sat down.

"Duncan I think we should talk about what happened, even if you don't want to."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's there to talk about, princess?"

Courtney looked at me as if she didn't know either. This quickly stopped as she replied, "What are you doing tomorrow?"

Think Duncan, think! What am I doing… "Whatever you want me to," I said suggestively. It took all the power I owned not to say babe at the end of that sentence.

She decided to just change the subject, "Do you need to call your parents?"

I actually didn't think about notifying them at all. I mean, they knew where I was. Heck! My mom was excited Courtney might be able to straighten me out! "Yeah, thanks."

She showed me where the phone is before she started to walk up stairs. "And where do you think you're going, young lady?" I said jokingly.

"First of all, you don't tell me what to do-"

"Unless I want to."

She just disregarded that. "And second of all, if you must know, I am getting a shower and changing."

"You need help?" She disregarded that too as I followed her up to her bedroom and she slammed the door in my face. "Love you too babe," I called after her laughing.

---------------------------------------

"Hey, uh, mom?"

"Duncan! It's about time you called! Do you know how worried-" I could almost hear her glare through the phone- almost.

"'We could have been,' yeah, yeah, I know mom."

"Where are you?" Typical mom, 'where are you?' like she cares.

"I'm at Courtney's," I said.

"That nice girl? Do you need us to send you money?"

"No mom. I'm fine for now, thanks." I was surprised she actually cared for once. I heard Courtney come downstairs. "Yeah, mom, I got to go. Tell everyone I say hi. I'll talk to you later okay?"

"Of course. I love you Duncan."

"I love you too mom, bye," I hung up. I turned around to see Courtney smirking. How embarrassing? I actually said 'I love you too, mom' in front of Courtney… crap.

"So you really do love your parents?" She joked.

"Whatever. It's not like you don't love yours," I said.

"Ya'know, sometimes I wonder about that…" she trailed off.

"Umm… Court?"

"Yeah Duncan?""Do you think I could crash here?" I was a little worried to ask.

"Of course."

I smiled. "Perfect, my suit case is already upstairs," I smirked.

"Duncan!"
