Summary: Duncan is infuriated by the revelation that Gwen and Courtney kissed back in London. When he goes to the cargo hold to vent, he finds Cody weeping in the corner as well. This can only end so well.

Duncan was infuriated, that is all he was. He was not crying, he was not heartbroken, he was furious. That's all he was. The tears coming out of his eyes were just out of the amount of fury he was in.

For some background information, after a long grueling challenge in Greece, he had to learn from Tyler that Gwen and Courtney had kissed. When Duncan found out, he was livid and immediately screamed at Courtney with all his might, not even giving her a chance to defend herself. After all the crap she put him through, she goes on to cheat on him and with his best friend no less, just like that.

But Duncan was strong, he was no weakling. He would not let himself succumb to crying over losing Courtney. Because then she'd win, and Duncan was not going to allow that.

Gwen had tried to talk to Duncan but he brushed her off, he didn't hate the goth, she clearly felt bad for what she did but he couldn't talk to her right now. If they were going to be friends again, Gwen would have to really earn it.

But Duncan did not miss her, he didn't miss being able to share his interests with her without fear of judgment, the way they made each other laugh, or how comfortable he was around her. No sir, he was strong and would not let himself crack over such stupid emotions.

He was in the cargo hold because he needed to vent his frustrations out, because he knew if Owen and Tyler saw him like this, they'd vote him off and he could not afford that right now. Here, he would be in solitude and would be able to quench his fury in peace. He was all alone here and that's how he liked it.

"Duncan…" He heard a soft voice call out.

Perhaps he spoke too soon about being alone here.

Duncan turned to see that Cody was in the corner of the luggage compartment with tears in his eyes.

"What are you doing here? What's with the tears?" Duncan scoffed at the geek.

"Well similar reason to you I assume. You're here to wallow in your heartbreak in peace." Cody explained as he wiped his eyes, "I would think so since… I've also been coming here a lot to do that."

"Pfft, why would I be heartbroken? So I got dumped by a chick, big whoop. Happens all the time." Duncan rolled his eyes, not wanting to know the implications of why Cody would be coming here so often.

"Duncan…" Cody gave a bored look, "She cheated on you, you've been together so long and I doubt you are cool about this."

"Princess… I mean, Courtney was a pain in my rear anyway. I'm practically relieved." Duncan smirked, trying to convince Cody he was fine but he could see right through it.

"No you're not. Even if you were having problems, the betrayal still stings and while I'm upset that I'll likely never have a chance with Gwen since she's probably a lesbian, I can't imagine what you're going through. Please Duncan, just admit you're upset." Cody pleaded with the punk, he may not have liked Duncan but he didn't like seeing him deny his own emotions like this.

Duncan had to admit, it was kind of endearing to see how Cody was trying to be there for him and he couldn't exactly say that the geek was annoying by any means, but he refused to show weakness in front of HIM.

Duncan immediately grabbed Cody's shirt and glared hatefully into the geek's eyes, "Listen up. I'm not gonna be some weakling and cry over the fact that I lost a girl, but I'm not gonna let Courtney disrespect me like this. So here's what's gonna happen. I WILL be winning this game and I WILL get revenge on that stuck up windbag for cheating on me with someone that I considered a friend!" Duncan vowed angrily to Cody.

But Cody did not fall back but instead kept speaking, "You lashing out confirms you're at least somewhat hurt about this. Feeling that way is not a weakness Duncan." Cody explained to him.

Duncan felt his fury for Cody disappear and so he just dropped Cody to the ground.

"Just go." Duncan sharply commanded.

"But-" Cody began before Duncan's gaze hardened.

"I'm not gonna tell you again." Duncan clenched his fists in anger.

"Okay Duncan, I'll go, but please don't do something you'll regret in the future." Cody sighed before walking out of the cargo hold.

Duncan felt calmer than he did earlier and he was able to think more rationally. Cody was not wrong, he was hurt by what Courtney and Gwen did to him but he was not going to falter when it came to them. They would pay no matter what. He may not hate Gwen as much as his ex, but they both deserved to suffer for this.

Duncan's eyes gazed at Cody exiting the cargo hold and suddenly he gained an idea. He didn't know exactly what the full details would be yet but he smirked as he began plotting. Duncan's revenge would be coming very soon and Gwen would be horrified to realize Cody would be a part of it.

Author's Note: johnymike98 requested to see what would happen if Gwen and Courtney kissed instead of Gwen and Duncan. Careful what you wish for. Mwahahahahahahaha.
