Courtney's POV

After the total drama seasons, ALL of them,  I headed home wanting nothing more,  than to sob into my pillow as I have wanted to do so, for a long time now. 

Why am I so down? Heartbreak,  pure hurtful heartbreak.  What happened to make me like this?  Or who, I should say.
...
Duncan.
...
On total drama world tour he had cheated on me with Gwen, one of my trusted  friends on the show. When I was voted off with Blainley, I had said I'd send my lawyers to sue the show... and Duncan. Did I? Of course not. I didn't want nothing to do with him.

Now I live in a small apartment, on the outskirts of the city I now live in. New York is a huge city with many people, so there'd be no way I could possibly bump into other from the show. when I walk down the sidewalk people see me as the girl with a pole stuck up my ass. I didn't even care anymore, even if it does remind me of what Duncan had told me.

I'm trying to live my life smoothly, though I am not all to rich. I have a job as a story writer, the people at the law school apparently didn't want a girl from a drama show. so that career was gone for me. But at least I get a stay at home job, plus many people like my stories short and long. I don't go outside much due to the fact people don't really like me. I do have friends still, though not many, I keep in touch with Bridgette, and Geoff (I guess not many people liked me from the show).

~At the grocery store~

I ran out of food again, maybe I should get a mountain of food to last me a while, since I really hate going out.

I looked at my list and walked towards the aisle with the sign above that has the words dairy. As I was picking up some milk and put it in my cart I looked up and caught a glimpse of green. looking fully out the figure, my heart beat dropped. I felt my skin go pale, and it felt like had stopped of a moment.

Duncan.

It was Duncan.

Standing there with his green Mohawk (as usual), he wore the same clothing as well. beside was none other than the goth queen herself, Gwen.

Looking down at the floor I picked up my things in the cart, and rushed to the cashier, trying not to be noticed. I really didn't wanna start an argument, which would probably happen if I were to be noticed.

I dropped all my things on the counter, eagerly tapping my fingers on it waiting for the cashier to hurry up scanning my items

But the world hates me now doesn't it?

I heard giggling from behind me, I recognized that voice. It was Gwen's. they were behind me. I took a quick glance behind me, hiding my face in my hair. they were going to checkout as well.

"Ok ma'am, that'll be $23.74"

I turned my head back to the guy behind the cashier, and noticing him waiting patiently for me to pay him.

"ah, sorry sir, here." I said quietly as I gave him my credit card.

"hey... I think I recognize that high pitch voice" I heard a deep voice say from behind me. I started to panic watching the guy slowly bagging my items.

I heard footsteps coming closer to me. I accidently looked up to see the person, only to have those gorgeous teal eyes stare right back into my onyx ones.

"Courtney..." Duncan said examining my face, no nickname no nothing. it hurt.

I snapped my head towards my items, and snatched them from the cashier, then I sprinted away going the fastest I could. I heard loud taps against the floor from behind me.

"Courtney!" I heard Duncan yell, I swallowed hard and ran faster, if that's possible. my sides hurt, but yet I continued to run my heart out. I ran out the front door of the store, nearing the road with tons of cars passing by. I stuck my feet out, and slide to a stop preventing myself from getting onto the road. Shit what am I gonna do now?

I felt a hand grab my arm, into a tight hold. I knew who it was obviously. I looked back at the him, face to face.

"W-what do you want, sir" I play it cool, trying to not let my voice crack into a cry.

"Why are you running from me Courtney?" Duncan said towering over me, as If I weren't scared to shit already.

"sir I don't think I know you, so could you please let go of my arm" I croaked pointing my arm in his grasp.

"Gosh Princess stop acting!" that nickname, he used it. he doesn't even deserve to call me princess anymore.

I heard the store's door open again, and out came Gwen with her items looking confused.

"Duncan! what're you doing to the girl!" she yelled. she didn't recognize me, probably for the best too. I didn't want to be in an even bigger argument.

"Oh, um sorry babe" he said looking at Gwen.

"let her go and come with me to the car!" Gwen said rolling her eyes.

Before he left, he looked back at me and whispered into my ear

"I know that's you Princess" He whispered, sending a shiver down my back, my heart racing rapidly.

He wrote something down on a piece of paper and slipped into my grocery bag, and walked off towards Gwen.

I stood there in shock. I can't be going through this again. after I regained my focus I stumbled to my car so I could drive off and go back home.

Once I reached my apartment I went in and started putting my groceries away. as I came down to the last bag I dumped the items inside and put them away. I turned back towards my counter and noticed the piece of paper from earlier.

I picked it up and looked at the neat hand writing. He had wrote his number with a small note saying :

Call me, when you decide to remember me

Well I'm in for a ride, now aren't I?
