Death Means Nothing Chapter 2

{[A/N Same A/N as last time. I'll put the POV above the paragraph. TDI/A never happened. Blah Blah Blah. I feel like it got off topic at the picture part near the end..]}

Duncan's POV
I looked over at Courtney. She had been silent ever since we got into her room.
"Your quiet." I said, stating obvious, seeing if she would yell at me because of it. I loved it when she yelled at me.
"Hm.." Courtney replied, her voice sounding higher than normal, "I guess I am."
I looked at her with confusion, "Um.. Courtney? Are you okay?"
Courtney's head twitched a bit and she looked at me. Unlike her usual dark eyes, they were a familiar shade of green. A certain shade of green that I remembered seeing the worst day of my life.
"Of course I'm okay! Why would you say that?" She asked in a lower voice than before, one that I also remembered.
"Courtney.. there's something wrong." I insisted, walking closer to her with every word.
Courtney's body suddenly shook for a second. A frown was plastered on her face. She moved even closer to me.
"Why did you choose me?" She asked, anger flaring in her eyes, "Why didn't you choose your step-sister? She could be alive now. You could be happy. But instead you fucked everything up and picked me. And you don't even like me do you? You sure as hell don't fucking act like it!"
I stared at her, confused. "C-Courtney. I-I like you. You have to understand that! My step-sister was crazy! She would've killed herself if I choose her or not!"

Natalie's POV
Maybe if I made Duncan hate this useless girl, he would fall in love with me.
That was the plan until he called me crazy.
"What did you say I was?" I blurted out without thinking.
"What are you talking about?" Duncan asked, looking at me suspiciously. Courtney was trying her best to regain control of her body. I had to do this fast.
"Never mind that. I don't EVER want to see you again. Your the reason that Natalie is dead. Get OUT of my house before I call the cops. I don't want to end up dead. You won't be missing anything anyway. You don't love me." Courtney was getting stronger now. I smiled and let myself out of her.

Courtney's POV
I had no idea what just happened. I looked up at Duncan. He looked heartbroken.
"Fine!" He yelled, turning around so his back was to me, "I don't want to see you again either. Oh and if you have nothing else to blame on me, then I'm going to leave before I get arrested because of you." Duncan then walked out of the door to my bedroom.
I fell on the floor and started shaking, tears rolling down my face. What the hell just happened? What was he talking about?
A hand touched my shoulder and I jumped, expecting to see Natalie again. It sure wasn't Natalie, because through my tears I could see a tanned figure with dark hair.
"What's wrong Court?" The figure asked, and I immediately knew it was my older sister, Halley.
I shrugged her arm off. "I-I have no idea," I muttered through sobs.  
It was clear Halley didn't believe me. She said, "You don't have to lie to me you know."
I wiped the tears away from my eyes and frowned at her. "I'm not lying!" I screamed at her, suddenly not being able to contain my anger, "I have no idea what happened! I blacked out and the next thing I knew Duncan was yelling at me!"
She looked me in the eyes, searching everywhere in them to catch a hint of a lie in them. After a good two minutes of that, she seemed to get nowhere. Halley walked to the doorway, glancing at me over her shoulder.
"I'm going to get pizza. I'm hungry." She told me and left.
Not only did Duncan hate me, but my sister did also?

{[3 Hours Later]}

I looked at the ceiling and sighed.
As much as my life sucked, I wasn't about to kill myself because of it like Natalie. My eyes traveled over the pictures taped to my ceiling. Pictures a few months ago, at Dorney Park. I had no intention of going, but Bridgette and Gwen dragged me there, Geoff, Duncan, and Trent going also. I remembered how weird it felt to be in my swimsuit around Duncan.
I had about ten pictures up there, all taped into a collage. Gwen stepping out of the log flume, her make-up running down her face, laughing at Trent's scared look and Bridgette's hair plastered on her face. Bridgette hiding Geoff's hat behind her back. A picture of Trent and Geoff playing chicken with Gwen and Bridgette (I smiled when I remembered how they got in trouble for it). A picture of me, Bridgette and Gwen in rocker positions, in the shallow end of the wave pool.
One of the pictures made me mad. I looked up at it and resisted the urge to rip it down and burn it.  

Flashback
"Why am I even here?!" I asked, wrapping a towel around me and looking out at the wave pool.
"C'mon!" Gwen said, "You know you like it! You even get to see Duncan in a swimsuit." She added the last sentence in a whisper. I elbowed her side.
"Did someone say Duncan?" Someone said from behind me and my towel was ripped off of me.
"HEY!" I screamed, turning around and glaring at Duncan. He smiled, holding the towel up high.
"Your going to have to jump to get it." He held it up even higher. I sighed. He was tall, taller than he used to be. I pouted when I remembered how I used to tower over him.
I got closer to him, trying to reach for my towel. Our bodies were pressed against each-other, and I was on the tips of my toes. I almost had it when I felt Duncan's breath on my neck. I froze.
Our lips were about an inch from touching. I blushed.
*Click* followed by a bright light. Duncan looked to find the source of the flash, and I used this as an opportunity to grab my towel. I jumped away from him, feeling extremely embarrassed, and pulled the towel around me. I followed where Duncan was looking.
Bridgette and Gwen were looking at my camera, smiling.
I glared at them. "You.. I.. how could.. UUGH!" I turned around, blushing more than before.
End Of Flashback

I sighed and rolled over, tears starting to fall down my face.
Something cold was slipped over my mouth. A few seconds later, something blunt hit me across the face and once again, everything went black.
