*back at camp*
(Gwen's P.O.V.)
God damn stubborn Duncan. I thought we were friends. "Why does he keep pushing people away like a stupid emo child?!" I asked Courtney. "I had a small crush on him," Courtney replied. I scoffed. She scowled. She continued: "but now I hate him. He's, he's a..."
"A beast?" I finished for her. "Yeah! He's a monster! I wouldn't trust him with my life!" I gaped at her. "Why wouldn't you?!"
"Because! He looks all scary, he's always moody, he practically killed me with his chainsaw, and-"
"HE DIDN'T TRY AND KILL ANYONE, COURTNEY." I snapped at her. "HE WAS ONLY PISSED OFF. HE WOULD NEVER, EVER TRY AND KILL ANYONE!! JUST BECAUSE HE LOOKS SCARY, DOESN'T MEAN HE ACTS SCARY." I finished with a "Harrumph." and sat down on my bed. Courtney stood open mouthed at me. "Why are you defending him?! He was just as bad to you as he was to me!"
"You know why?"
"No, that's why I asked."
"I defended him because... because..." I couldn't think of an answer. "Because why?!" Courtney blurted. "BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHY!" I shouted. Leshawna stuck her head in the door. "Wow, girls, what's the hell is goin' on in here?!" Courtney and I looked at each other. Then we looked at Leshawna, and shrugged. Leshawna looked at us, out the window, then said, "Good enough for me." and left.
Courtney suddenly gasped, covered her mouth, pointed at me, and whispered, "I know why you defended him even though he was a jerk to you."
"OK, then, tell me, because I'm still confused." Courtney grinned behind her hand, and whispered, "You're in love. With. Duncan." I sat there for a moment. Then I practically fell over from laughter. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!! Oh, oh Courtney! Oh you crack me up!! That's a good one!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAA...!!" I wiped a tear from my eye and looked up from Courtney, but she was still grinning and she was still pointing at me. I got up and said, "I'm NOT in love with him."
"Oh pa-lease!" Courtney exclaimed. "I know you've been seeing him in the woods ever since he left after trying to kill me." She said the last part smiling like she had just recited a pleasant memory.
"OK, number one, for the millionth time, Duncan did NOT try to kill you, and number two, I am NOT IN LOVE WITH DUNCAN!!" I shouted. "GWEN!" Courtney grabbed my shoulders. "You. Are. In. Love!" I looked at her hard. "No I'm not."
"Like you told me earlier today, it's like Beauty and the Beast! You're Beauty, and Duncan (of course) is the beast!! It's a love story, Gwen!! Admit it!! You're in love with him!!!!!"
I considered this for a long time. I pondered all of the things I knew about him. I learned about Duncan in the hours we spent alone. He learned a lot about me too. "You know what Courtney..." I started. Right about as I was gonna finish, Heather shouted from outside, "LET'S GETTEM!!" then I heard cheers from about 10 other campers. I jumped from my bed and stuck my head outside of the door. Heather, Leshawna, Bridgette, Beth, Lindsay, Trent, Geoff, Tyler, and Harold stood outside with pitch forks and torches. "Going about this a little mid-evil time-ish, eh, guys?" I shouted to them. Heather glared in my direction. "Yes! We are! We're going to drown Duncan, isn't that right, people?!" All the others cheered with approval.
"Leshawna?! Trent?! Bridgette?!" I yelled. "You want to drown him?!? I thought you guys-"
"Gwen, I don't want you to get hurt!" Trent shouted to me. "I don't either, girl!" Leshawna agreed. "Gwen, he's a thug! He could kill us all!" Bridgette stated. People agreed with pleased cheers and applause. "NO!!" Me and Courtney screamed. "TOO LATE, WEIRD GOTH GIRL!!" Heather shouted at us. "Dylan is so mean!" Lindsay said. "It's Duncan, Lindsay!" Beth said. "And I agree!"
I started to run off into the woods, but then I remembered something. I ran back to Courtney. "You know what I asked you?!"
"Yes, it happened five minutes ago!!"
I turned my back, still looking at her, and said, "You were right!!" and sprinted off in the direction of Duncan's camp.
- - - - - - - - - -
I arrived at Duncan's camp with hardly any time to spare. I could hear Heather and her crowd coming up. They were about five minutes behind me. "DUNCAN!!" I screamed. I heard a distressed grunt of pain come from the tiny hut, and an angry, crazy looking Duncan came out of it. I ran up to him and hugged him so tight my arms started to hurt. "AGGHH!!" Duncan shouted. He pushed me off of him. "I thought you hated me." Duncan grumbled, dusting his shirt off. "I don't any more. Listen. Heather and like eight other campers are coming to drown you in the lake!!"
"What?!?!?!" He screamed. "COME ON YOU PSYCHOPATH!!" I screamed back, and I grabbed his hand, and we ran like hell. Then suddenly, I felt someone grab my other hand. I looked to my side, scared as shit, but I saw it was Courtney. "You ain't the only one who cares about Duncan's safety!!" She shouted. "Try and keep up!" Courtney sprinted, and I had to bring up all my strength to keep up, basically dragging Duncan along with us.
Suddenly, I felt a huge force tug on Duncan's hand. "NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I heard Duncan screech, then his hand was pulled from my grasp. "DUNCAN!!!!!!!" I screamed. "COURTNEY STOP!! HEATHER GOT DUNCAN!!" Courtney stopped dead cold. She spun on the spot and tackled Heather before she could get away. "DON'T. TOUCH. DUNCAN!!!!!" Courtney shouted in Heather's face. I grabbed Duncan's hand again and we sprinted for the other side of the island. "Courtney!!" I shouted over my shoulder. "I'll be fine! SAVE DUNCAN!!" Courtney screamed as her mouth was covered by Bridgette's hand.
- - - - - - - - - -
We FINALLY reached the other side of the island within an hour. I collapsed at the edge of the lake. Duncan collapsed to the left of me. We laid there, panting, for about ten minutes.
"Do, do you think, *pant* that anyone, *pant pant* followed, *pant* us?" Duncan managed.
"*pant pant pant* No. *pant* I think we're, *pant* we're good."
When I had collapsed, I had my hands at my sides, so suddenly, I felt Duncan take my hand and squeeze it. I felt butterflies rise up in my stomach. "So," Duncan whispered after we had both caught our breath. "I heard shouting all the way from my camp to that cruddy hell-hole McClean calls a camp. Sounded like you and Courtney..." Oh screw it all, I thought. He heard our conversation about me loving him or not!!
"Do... do you really..." Duncan's voice trailed off.
"Love you?" I finished. Duncan looked at me with his big teal eyes, pleading I give him an answer. "I'm not sure." I simply stated. I stared up at the moon. "Have you ever noticed that the moon looks so close, but it's like billions and billions of miles away?" Duncan asked me, pointing at the moon. "Yeah, isn't that weird?"
"Uh huh. I think we learned about it in 6th grade, but I didn't listen enough to remember why it looks so close." He squeezed my hand tighter. "I'm glad I'm not alone out here." He whispered to me. "Me too." I replied.
"Let me rephrase that;" Duncan continued. "I'm glad I'm out here with you. After spending so much time alone with you, it feels like you're the sister I never had. But I can do one thing with you that I can't do with a sister." I blushed, and joked, "Hug me without barfing?"
"Well, that, and this." Duncan closed his eyes. I saw him leaning in towards me. He's gonna kiss me!! I thought. I leaned toward him, slowly closing my eyes, nervous as hell. When our lips met, I swear, I felt something like sparks. Nothing like I had when I kissed Trent for the first time. The kiss lasted about ten seconds. When we pulled away, Duncan just stared into my eyes. I stared into his. "Beast." I smirked. "Beauty." Duncan chuckled.
Then, just as suddenly as our kiss, just as I was about to snuggle close to him, nine pairs of hands grabbed Duncan, and chucked him into the lake.
(Gwen's P.O.V.)
God damn stubborn Duncan. I thought we were friends. "Why does he keep pushing people away like a stupid emo child?!" I asked Courtney. "I had a small crush on him," Courtney replied. I scoffed. She scowled. She continued: "but now I hate him. He's, he's a..."
