Wow. That's like twice the length of the others. Still own noting, still looking for beta.
Still can't write Sierra to my life.
There is a singing verse later, so what heather sings is in this, and Cody is in this.
Chapter 3- where Heather and Cody are kind of mad on eachother.
The most stupid argument we ever had.
And it's us, so that's means a lot.
Yap.
Cody Emmet Jameson Angel Anderson, known mostly as Cody, was terrified. Not that he'll ever say it out loud. He had small, little pieces of self respect to save.
And Heather knew! After their parents married, they were forced to live next door from each other, and learned pretty fast about each other's little issues.
He knew about how hurt she was when little kids recognized her in the street (That never ended well) and more then once, he got the duty of getting her to calm.
And she knew that he hated being alone, and that in the dark, he could clearly see the forest around him, he could almost feel the bear's breath on him. He woke up screaming more then once. And Heather… He never could have tell if it was a dream or not, but he could swear that most of those times, she came to his room and sat on his bed until he fell back to sleep.
In the only time he asked, she denied it completely. They never talked about it again.
He tried to stay close to Gwen, but she left him. Not because she didn't want to be around him. (Right?) Because she just kept going, not noticing his tries to stick to her.
Courtney was somewhere behind him, that's for sure. She probably was flirting with Alejandro. What? Her acting was awful. He was pretty sure that even Katie and Sadie would understand that.
He tried to talk to Heather, but she was right, of course. He couldn't accept her just to babysit on him every time he needed someone around him. The secret was very important to her, after all. But still, it hurt. Doesn't matter how much annoyed of her he was, he always tried to make her relax. Why couldn't she do the same for him when he needed her?
And Sierra… That was weird. He knew he tried to lose her after she helped him to catch an emu, that he named Jerry, but he didn't except her to disappear. He hasn't seen her in hours, which was surprising. Not that he wanted her around, but she usually wasn't leaving him for more then few minutes the most.
And then night fell, and he decided to stop for the night and sleep. Australia was known for having some of the most dangerous and deadly animals, and he preferred to sleep well if he had to ride in the desert another day. And he really preferred to go through the dark in his sleep, then having to spend hours riding through it. He found a spot, tied Jerry to a tree, and crumbled into himself. Maybe if he didn't look, he won't see the shadows. MAYBE. But it didn't work, and Cody cried himself to sleep.
Being in abandoned desert, sounds transferred really well. Heather could hear Cody crying About a Kilometer away from him. She kicked her Emu, riding to him. That was her fault, and she was going to fix it. It took her about two minutes to reach him, and by the time she did, he was already sleeping, cuddled into himself.
"Cody?" She asked quietly, sending her hand to touch him.
"Go away!" He yelled, changing his position. "I don't want you here!"
Heather froze for a moment, and then reached her emu. Being busy climbing on him, she missed Cody's whisper. "Please Sierra, just leave me alone."
Heather rode away on her emu, not looking back.
Long story short? They lost the challenge. The boys won, Duncan basically threw Cody of a cliff, and it wasn't a good day at all. Not even a bit. Team Amazon, now waiting for an elimination ceremony, set in economy class, waiting.
Heather looked on Cody. Last night was still… bitter, in her mind.
"8 o'clock, Monday night and I'm waitin'
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me.
Her name is Nona, she's a rocker with a nose ring,
She wears a two way, but I'm not quite sure what that means. "
She started singing, choosing that song to piss Cody.
But he didn't stand still, and in the moment she stopped, he started singing another song.
"Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh
Look out for Cruella De Vil
Cruella De Vil
Cruella De Vil
If she doesn't scare you
No evil thing will
To see her is to take a sudden chill
Cruella, Cruella De Vil"
And so they continued, each one singing a verse.
"And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She doesn't notice me!"
"The curl of her lips
The ice in her stare
All innocent children had better beware
She's like a spider waiting for the kill
Look out for Cruella De Vil...
Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes"
"It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want! "
"Cruella, Cruella De Vil
If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
To see her is to take a sudden chill
Cruella De Vil..."
"She likes the Godsmack and I like Agent Orange
Her cd changer's full of singers that are mad at their dad
She says she'd like to score some reefer and a forty
She'll never know that I'm the best that she'll never have
And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She'll never notice me! "
"Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh
This vampire bat
This inhumane beast
She 'outta be locked up and never released
This world was such a wholesome place until
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
Yeah!"
"Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes "
"Cruella, Cruella De Vil
If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
To see her is to take a sudden chill
Cruella De Vil..."
"She likes 'em with a mustache
Racetrack season pass
Drivin' in a Trans-Am
Does a mullet make a man? "
"Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh
(oooh oh, oooh oh. oooh oh. oooh oh)"
"At first you think Cruella is the devil
But after time has worn away the shock
You've come to realize
You've seen her kind of eyes
Watching you from underneath a ROOOOOOOCK!"
"It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want! "
"Cruella, Cruella De Vil
If she doesn't scare you no evil thing will
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
To see her is to take a sudden chill
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
If she doesn't scare you no evil thing will
Cruella, Cruella De Vil
To see her is to take a sudden chill
Cruella De Vil"
"There she goes again
With fishnets on, and dreadlocks in her hair
She broke my heart, I wanna be sedated
All I wanted was to see her naked! "
Gwen knew that verse, and started doing the correct background voices.
"Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh (Cruella De Vil!)
Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh (Cruella De Vil!)
Oooh, ooh oh oh, oooh oh
Look out for Cruella De Vil"
Cody finished his song, so Heather just kept singing hers until the end.
"Now I am watchin' wrestling
Tryin' to be a tough guy
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in my eyes
I can't grow a mustache
And I ain't got no season pass
All I got's a moped...moped...moped...
It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
(There she goes again)
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
(There she goes again)
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!"
They stared on each other, not saying a word.
"That was amazing, Cody-kins!" Sierra fangirled, hugging him. Only Heather, that looked, could see the moment of discuss on his face.
"That was nice, I guess." Gwen said.
"Thank you very much, Nona!" Heather said, making sure that all of them understood who the boy from the song was.
"That wasn't needed." Cody said, finding his shoes very interesting.
"Yes that was!" She yelled.
What was she talking about? Cody hadn't got an idea.
Chris sent them to vote.
Heather looked to the confessional camera and set free a long whisper.
"I'm voting for Courtney." She said after a moment, signing the passport featuring the Hispanic girl. "I don't want to, but you forced me."
Cody, who came in after her, just stared and singed some passport.
And then they all set in front of Chris, waiting for his read of the votes.
"Did you…?" Courtney started, getting Heather to node her head quickly. That wasn't a lie, she excused herself. Courtney could ask if she voted Courtney, and in this case the answer will be yes.
"Liar." Cody coughed into his hands.
She didn't respond, just waited for Chris to call the votes.
And he did. "A vote for Courtney, a vote for Gwen, Courtney, Gwen. And the last vote to… Courtney."
Gwen released a long breath. Cody sent her a smile. "I told you." He said.
"You did." She agreed.
That probably what made Courtney blew. "You did what? How could you…" She stopped, probably understanding the answer. "You lied to me!" She yelled on Heather.
"That was you were asking?" Heather played innocent. "I thought you were asking if I voted to you. My mistake. Sorry!"
"I hate you!" Courtney yelled, only to be pushed out of the plain by Chris.
Cody looked on her getting smaller shape. "And there was much rejoicing."
"Yaaay." Both Gwen and Heather said flatly, rising their hands in the air. Then the girls high-fived, before they understood what they did and froze.
You did what?
Hey, Court…
Don't you "Hey, Court." Me. Why did you do that?
Because you deserved it.
I defiantly didn't.
Oh, really? You lost challenges on purpose. That a good excuse for joyful elimination, in my idea.
Not to talk about the fact that you were a bit… bossy, in sixteen.
And nineteen. She was bossy even then.
She grew up from it. I grew up from it.
Good to you.
Aunt Courtney, you are my favorite aunt, but were kind of in the middle of a story, so if you don't mind…
I'm leaving. Don't worry about it, Ania.
If Aunt Courtney was so annoying, how did you two have married?
That's a story for another day.
Fine.
Team Amazon returned to economy class silently and set there. Heather got a bench to herself, so she lay on him, trying to full asleep. On the other bench, the other three tried to find a way to do similar thing.
And one by one, they all fell down. Into sleep, of course.
That's a horrible joke. You know no one likes to talk about him!
I do, indeed. But it was too good to give up.
I bet that Mike and Zoey won't agree with you. I can even bet that your husband won't agree with you.
What dad won't agree with?
I did a joke about someone we met once. It almost didn't end well.
What do you mean? What happened?
Some people almost died, including me and your father. And that's everything I'm going to say about it for the day. Are we clear?
Yes, mom.
I'll tell you about it when I'll tell you how Courtney and I started dating, alright?
Ya, whatever.
