Chapter 5
What about the others?
Courtney's P.O.V.
Bex had gone for an adventure around the studio I didn't mind, she was a, some sort of, sensible girl. Bex wouldn't go far enough to get actually lost. I hoped.
"Courtney, what happened to you?" DJ asked. We hadn't seen each other since that faithful day I left. No one from the cast had spoken to me since I had gone into hiding.
"I-I had some things to take care of." I replied. It wasn't a total lie, was it?
"We had more seasons after the first. Everyone was expected to be back for them, but you never showed." I looked up into DJ's kind eyes. He really cared about me, about everyone from Total Drama. I caved in. I had to tell DJ the truth.
"DJ," I started. "The reason I left Total Drama was because...because I was pregnant." I heard a faint gasp escape his lips. I didn't have the guts to even face him.
"P-pregnant?" He was also having a hard time coming to terms with it. "B-But you and...and...You were pregnant!" I nodded, almost in tears. In my mind I was a slut. DJ must have seen because he pulled me into a hug. "It's okay." He soothed. "I'm just shocked, that's all." The two of us were interrupted by an all too familiar voice.
"HAROLD!" Chris yelled from the other side of the studio. "I need you to hurry up with moving this set!" The sadistic host still had his evil ways. And he still wasn't a morning person.
"I'M GOING. GOSH!" I heard another familiar voice yell. I peered behind DJ to see Harold dragging a long, white, marble balcony along the floor. Or at least attempting to. Chris was standing near by, looking as impatient as I remembered him. Neither of the two seemed to have changed over the course of the ten years since I'd last seen them. Chris still needed to shave. Badly. Harold was still a scrawny git, with no muscle.
I laughed at the sight. It had been too long since I'd seen either of them. Then it hit me, why were they here?
"After the final Total Drama season, most of us got our big break in show biz." DJ explained. "I became a director, Harold is a stage hand and Chris is still a host." I nodded my head.
"What about the others?" I asked, still smiling at Harold and Chris.
"Well, Trent went into music with LeShawna as his manager. Cody does sound and lighting. Beth is in the make-up department. Izzy is a fitness coach for some of our more...unfit actors. Bridgette works around here, too. She's an assistant director slash surf instructor and swim coach. You'll probably see her around." I smiled. Bridgette had been my best friend from the island. I would definitely shock her with an appearance. "She's still with Geoff, he's an actor now. Along with Lindsay, who appears in Romances, Gwen, who appears in Horrors, Heather, who makes a great villain and-" I cut across DJ.
"Duncan, who is so famous he's everywhere I look." I chuckled on the inside, but I couldn't bring myself to do it on the outside.
"Does he know about...Bex?" DJ asked, which took him all his courage.
"No, and I don't want him finding out, either." Courtney answered, wiping a stray tear from her eye.
"I'm sorry, Court, I didn't mean to-"
"It's okay." Courtney interrupted. "You didn't know."
Bex's P.O.V.
Duncan and I were still sitting in his dressing room. He'd let me stay with him whilst mom and DJ continued their talk. Given the choice, I'd stay with Duncan my whole life.
The two of us were talking about anything and everything. It started about the movie we were in, then moved onto our personal lives.
"How come you never married?" I asked. I was a big Duncan Evers fan. I knew everything about him. Or a least I knew the basics.
"I'm waiting for the right person." He answered, not looking me in the eye's anymore.
"That's cool. I mean, you're only twenty-six. You have plenty of time to get married and start a family and stuff." I told him, trying to make him feel better about himself. He laughed. "What?"
"You are how old? And you're giving relationship advice." He managed to say through the chuckles.
"I'm ten, and I know a lot for a ten-year-old."
"Didn't you just say you hated school?"
"You don't learn everything in school."
"Trust me, kid. Listen in school, now, otherwise you'll pay later." Duncan explained to me about how he never listened in school and found it more difficult as he got older. He felt 'dumb' amoungst his friends who had listened in school. I fell asleep after that.
Duncan's P.O.V.
Bex looked so innocent as she slept on my sofa. We'd been talking for about two hours, her mother must have been wondering where she was by then. I scooped the little girl up into my arms. I think if she'd woken up then she would have had a heart attack from me being so close to her. I've never been one for kids. They weren't my thing. But, there was something different about Bex. She was so bouncy and energetic, she wasn't like any of my cold hearted nieces or nephews. Bex wasn't afraid to speak out for what she wanted. I loved people like that. I guess I don't mind her as much as I thought I would have.
I carried Bex out to the corridor where I saw DJ sitting in his director chair. He seemed to be deep in thought, so I didn't say a word to him until I reached where he was sitting. He looked up to me and saw Bex in my arms. For a second his eye grew wider.
"I'll take her." He said, getting to his feet. But, DJ looked worn out, I was worried he'd drop her or something.
"No, it's okay. Just tell me where I'm putting her and I'll take her." I told him, smiling down at Bex in my arms. Then it caught my eye. Over the bridge of her nose was seven little freckles, just like Courtney had had. It was weird how this little girl reminded me so much of the girl I loved.
A/N: Awww! Duncan still loves Courtney. But, will he still love her when he finds out the TRUTH?
I'll try to get an update again later or tomorrow. I'm gonna go write a chapter for The going's On 2 now. If I have time I'll start writing this one again :)
