Note: I made it so Gwen and Courtney were on the same team (Screaming Gophers so Courtney didn't have to deal with Duncan)

Third Person P.O.V.

"Morning," she said softly, smiling at her friend.

Courtney returned the smile, her eyes still half-closed with sleep. "Morning," she replied, her voice husky.

They lay there in comfortable silence for a few minutes, enjoying the warmth of each other's bodies and the quiet of the morning. The sound of leaves rustling outside the cabin window and birds chirping in the trees was a peaceful background to their lazy morning.

Gwen broke the silence. "It's so nice to sleep in for once, isn't it?" she said, closing her eyes again and snuggling closer to Courtney.

Courtney chuckled. "Yeah, it is. I could get used to this."

Gwen opened her eyes and looked up at Courtney. She couldn't help but admire how beautiful Courtney looked in the morning light, with her hair falling in soft waves around her face and her eyes still heavy with sleep.

Courtney noticed Gwen's gaze and blushed. "What?" she asked, smiling shyly.

"Nothing," Gwen said, still gazing at her friend. "I just think you're really pretty."

She gently placed her hand on Courtney's cheek and slowly rubbed circles with her thumb.

Courtney's blush deepened, and she looked away. "Thanks," she mumbled, feeling flustered.

Gwen slightly smirked at her reactions and changed their positions, so she was on top of Courtney.

"Gwen, what are yo-" she began before being interrupted by a pair of soft lips.

Gwen had liked Courtney ever since day 1, with the hot tub challenge. Gwen had mishandled some of the lumber and cut herself on accident. Courtney, being her teammate and CIT, tried her best to bandage up her wound with what little there was. However, what really got her hooked was their half-second of eye-contact. Their brown and black orbs meeting just long enough for Gwen to fall in love.

Of course, there were other instances where one helped, comforted, and held one another, but none of those moments could top this one.

After about 30 or so seconds, their lips parted, leaving the tiniest saliva strand from their kiss.

"Woah" was all Gwen could mutter, still in shock she did that.

Courtney was left speechless. She had never really thought about her sexuality before. Yeah, she dated guys, but that doesn't mean she was attracted to any of them. Come to think of it, she hadn't even known if she was ever attracted to anyone ever. She never worried about her dating life, because she had been too busy with school and being a CIT.

But Gwen? Gwen was the first person to make her question herself. The guys she dated in school were never bad at kissing, but they weren't great either. She had never kissed a girl before Gwen, so she had no idea if it was just a guy thing to be meh at kissing.

Courtney finally opened up her eyes to meet Gwen's.

Gwen was anxiously waiting for a response. ANY response from her crush.

"Gwen?" Courtney whispered to the goth girl.

"U-uh, ye-yeah?" Gwen stuttered, unsure of how Courtney felt. Her heartbeat had to have skyrocketed to at least 500 bpm.

"Kiss me again?" Courtney softly spoke with a slight smile and questioning tone.

Gwen felt a wave of relief wash over her, as she smiled back and lent in for another loving kiss.



Thanks so much for reading, hope you enjoyed. As a kid who watched both TDWT and TDAS, I shipped this so hard and to this day, I'm a little sad that they didn't end up together. Yeah, they had some... interesting encounters, but TDAS in particular felt like queer-baiting imo.

Anyways, if you have any requests, I'll be happy to look into them and see if I could make a chapter on them (it is not guaranteed)

Hope you have a great day! :)
