It was 5 years after Total Drama all-stars.5 whole years.5 years of hiding from paparazzi.5 years of hate on the internet.And,most importantly,5 years of missing him.Every time she saw a mohawk,or someone with stubby legs and a giant torso,she was forced to remember him.He was her everything,and it take more than 5 years to get over what he did.He left her broken,yet every time she remembered him,she felt herself longing to embrace him once again.Every time she went to defend someone at court,she remembered the way he would listen to her drone on about wanting to be a lawyer,and then remark,'Well good thing your going for that kind of career,you'll get me out of several unpleasant visits to jail.'She remembered how he would he would layer his shirts,and how he had an aroma of spices and bark.It wasn't the best combination for a cologne,but it could never had made her love him less.Or maybe it did,but she was too blinded by her adoration for him to say so.

Courtney hoped that she would never have to hear from Duncan again,but karma comes around and after how she acted in all the seasons after Total Drama Island,she definitely had some coming,and a lot of it.And her karma started today,the 27 June 2018 (2018 is 5 years after All-Stars came out.I think...).Courtney was lying on her sofa,armed with a pot of cucumber and hummus,as well as her Maine Coon cat,Brittany,flicking through TV channels,which had become a sort of Saturday night habit.She finally chose a random news station to watch,and chucked the remote across the sofa.She eyed the screen lazily,until a report immediately caught her eye.It was panickedly describing an escaped convict from a local prison.The screen changed to some security camera footage of the criminal sprinting down the path that led into the city.Her city.The video made her drop her half-eaten cucumber stick,which was immediately pounced upon by Brittany.He was back,and he was coming back to her.

Around 2 am,there was a loud bang by her front door,and then the slam of it closing.Courtney was never a heavy sleeper,and now she lay awake,sweating at the thought of the intruder.She crawled down the hallway,telling herself,'Come on Courtney!You fought sharks back on Total Drama,and now you're really gonna let some person freak you out?'As she crept downstairs,she heard noises.Not sounds of stuff breaking,but sounds of...a fridge opening?Courtney peeked through the doorway to the kitchen,and her curious eyes were met with her worst fear.Her ex was standing in the middle of her kitchen,munching on a slice of HER leftover pizza.She slowly inched into the kitchen,ready to confront him.But then she caught sight of her face in the reflection of the oven.She looked timid,scared.Her daredevil days of boxing her (now) best-friend were over,and now she looked aged.

'About time you woke up.I'm starving and all I could find in your fridge that looked appetising was this vegetarian pizza,and a grown-man can't survive of vegetables and bread.'Courtney's breath halted.After all these years,the only thing he had to say to her was based around her choice of foods.It wasn't the best re-introduction,but it wasn't the worst thing he had ever said to her.The top 7 spots for that were all in World Tour,a season she refused to believe existed.But it did,and she was aware that there was a split between the fans of Total Drama who took the rage-filled stunts she pulled in World Tour,and made them things to hate,and the fans who saw how much her relationship meant to her,and how she shattered in one thousand shards of her fiery,formidable past-self,that could never be put to back together,and idolised her for carrying on throughout the rest of the season,and All-Stars.You hated her or you loved her,there was no in between.And now the person who she was meant to absolutely despise,but could never bring herself to even think that,was standing in front of her,his eyebrow raised,(He shaved his unibrow) waiting for her to respond.She didn't though.She stayed silent,but slowly handed him a bag of Maltesers from her snack cupboard.

He snatched them from her,then opened them and walked into the living room.He plopped down onto the sofa,causing Brittany to hiss and run through the cat-flap into Courtney's flower garden.'So,how have you been recently Princess?' Princess.The nickname gave her goosebumps,but also sparked joy deep down inside her.'I-I've been okay,I guess.I finally became a lawyer,and I adopted a cat and...' Courtney mumbled.It was the only thing she could think to say. Duncan sensed her tenseness and patted beside him on the sofa,gesturing for her to sit down.She did so,shaking with anxiousness the whole time.'So-so why are you here?In my house,eating my food?'She said nervously.Duncan chuckled quietly,and then stated flatly,'Ha,Princess have you gained amnesia while I've been gone?Because,last time I checked,YOU gave me the Maltesers.'Courtney rolled her eyes.How could she forget how sarcastic he was?'But,the answer to the first question is I need a place to stay.You probably know that I've escaped from prison,because you like to watch those dodgy news channels.I got your address from Geoff.'He remarked to her eye-roll.'No.Absolutely n-'She was cut off by the feeling of another pair of lips meeting hers.Her eyes widened in suprise.She pulled back,and a hand gently lifted her head to face a person.The person that had just shocked her,but made her feel everything at the same time.'I've missed you' were the only words uttered from his mouth before he pulled her face towards him again,and this time she didn't pull away.
