Chapter 20

He really did care

Duncan's P.O.V.

The cab driver dropped me off outside the airport. I gave him the money and sped off inside the building, not even waiting for change. As I ran inside I was attacked by the flash of the cameras, but luckily for me the security men were backing them outside.

I managed to have a quick sweep of the floor, but no Courtney or Bex in sight. I then hit me, I had no idea where she was going. My only hope was to wonder around aimlessly till I found them. That plan was a sure fail. The building was massive. At least ten times the size of my house. And that was classed as a mini-mansion.

I began to run over the first floor. Everywhere I looked there was no sign of either of them. I just wanted my girls back so badly. Now I've had them,I can't let them go. It would only hurt all of us so much. I had to find them.

As I made my way up to the second floor I was caught up in a mad rush for check-in. Everyone was pushing and shoving and I was piggy in the middle. I tried to push my way out of the crowd, but that didn't work. It was as if they didn't even notice I was there. In the end they shoved me out of the crowd and onto my ass. I groaned in pain as I came in contact with the cold, tile floor. That hurt. Badly.

I stood up and dusted myself off. But, that was the best thing ever. As I looked up a little girl caught my eye. She had long black hair and was wearing the same clothes I had last seen Bex in. There was no doubt it was here. But, she was on the floor below. And Courtney was no where to be seen.

Nothing could stop me now. I started running back down the stairs and over to where I'd seen Bex to. But, I got stopped by security.

"Excuse me, sir." The man said. "There's no running in the airport."

"Sorry, but I'm in a mad rush to catch my girlfriend before she boards a plane." I explained.

"That's no excuse." He told me, I gave him a swift nod of my head, still eying up Bex over his shoulder. "Go on then." He half-screamed, moving out the way for me to go past. I couldn't risk running again, so I speed walked my way over.

The closer I got, the wider my smile became. As soon as I reached Bex, I scoped her up in my arms and spun her around. She obviously didn't know it was me because she screamed her head off. My first reaction was cover her mouth my sweaty palm. She opened her eyes and they met mine. I stared deep into her icy-blue eyes. They were the exact same color as mine.

"Duncan!" She cried, wrapping her arms around my neck. I hugged her close before placing her back on the floor.

"Where's your mother?" I asked, placing my hand inside my pocket and squeezing the box for good luck.

"In the bathroom." She told me. "What are you doing here?" I could see the happiness and excitement bubbling up inside of her.

"You don't think I was going to let you go without at least a goodbye, do you?" I meant it as a joke, but I think she thought I was serious. How can I tell? Her face scrunched up and her hand came out. She slapped me hard across the cheek and jaw. "OWW!" I yelled out in pain. She may have been ten, but she had a dangerous side. "What was that for?" I asked, rubbing my sore face. But, before Bex could answer me, someone else joined in our conversation.

"Duncan? What are you doing here?" I looked into Courtney's face and smiled.

"Courtney!" I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her body tight to mine. She reacted by pushing me off her.

"Answer my question, Duncan." She said quietly. I could see she had been crying. That made want to do what I was about to even more.

Bex's P.O.V.

"Mom!" I whined. I was back in my right mind and wasn't happy about it. Mom had decided to drag me to the airport so she could take us to her cousins who live in Canada. Canada! I hadn't even finished filming the movie. That was the best movie ever and she was all for it in the beginning too. It was all my fault. Why did I ruin everything?

"Bex, hush up!" She barked at me. She was staring up at the flights board, again. She must have checked that thing every five minutes. Even I knew our flight hadn't be canceled or delayed or anything like that. It was going to go on time. However, I don't think mom knew that.

I slumped down in the chair I was sitting on. It was really uncomfortable. I was bored out of my mind and mom wasn't giving me any attention. That's what I hate the most. No one payed me any attention anymore. They had when I was filming, but that was it. No one wanted to talk to me, the stupid ten-year-old who wouldn't understand. But I would understand if they just gave me a chance to listen.

"Beck, I'm gonna go used the ladies room. Can I trust you to watch the suitcases for to minutes?" Mom asked. I looked up and she was pointing to a door not that far away that had a picture that lady with the funny shaped dress on.

"When I get back we'll go through check in." I nodded my head and she scurried off to use the toilet. Alone and bored. What a combination. I decided to start playing a game by myself. I watched all the passers by and guessed what their names were.

"He's a Steve. You can see it in his eyes." I told myself.

"She's a...Monica? No. A Selena." People sitting on the seats by me started giving me funny looks. What did they know?

"Oooh he's definitely a Leo, and a cute one at that." I said, eying up blond guy not to far away from where I was sitting. But, then he went through the gateway and was gone from my life. Dang it!

My game went on for ages. I really don't know what mom was doing in the bathroom. Maybe she fell in? I was lost in my train of thought and didn't even realize who was approaching me. Before I knew it I had been lifted off my feet and was being squished super hard. I screamed my head off before they guy out his hand over my mouth to shut me up.

"Becky, it' me!" He said. I opened my eyes and found myself staring into the icy-blue ones I wanted to be looking at. "Duncan!" I yelped, tightening my arms around his neck. He'd come after us. He really did care for me and, maybe, mom.

"Where's your mother?" Duncan asked, placing me back on the floor.

"In the bathroom." I told him. "What are you doing here?" I was over the moon excited. If anyone could talk mom out of leaving, it was Duncan. He just had that way about him that made mom look like she was made of jelly and needed Duncan to help hold her up.

"You don't think I was going to let you go without at least a goodbye, do you?" My heart sank. He only wanted to say goodbye. At that moment a rage inside me build up and I lashed out because of it. I slapped Duncan right across the face. "OWW!" He exclaimed. "What was that for?" I never got to answer his question because mom showed up.

"Duncan? What are you doing here?" I could see the edges of her eyes were slightly red. She'd been crying and tried to cover it up with make-up. So I guess she hadn't fallen in after all.

"Courtney." Duncan wrapped his arms around mm and hugged her tightly. She only pushed him away.

"Answer my question, Duncan?" She whispered, her voice was hoarse from all the crying. Duncan didn't answer her question. Instead, he got down on one knee and pulled a little black box out from his pocket. I heard a faint gasp escape mom's lips as she realized was was going on.

"Courtney Isabella Garcia. I love you. I have loved you since the first day we met. I don't want you to leave my life anymore. I want to always be there for you, for Bex and for our new little baby. So, will you do me the honor of being my wife?" Moms eyes had teared over. She couldn't speak properly, so she gave an enthusiastic nod instead. Duncan jumped to his feet, picked mom up and spun her around. Everyone who had see was clapping for he two of them. And me? I was jumping up and down, dancing the music in my head. We were finally going to be a family.
