Gwen's POV
"Oh, I wanted to talk about...." he paused. I can tell that he hesitated. He continued, "Um, about Courtney. Duncan took a sede, sedile successivo to me. "I'm afraid of what Princess might do to me. Legend says, the last time a dude broke up with her...actually, no one knows what happened to the last dude who broke off with Courtney." he explained. I laughed a little. "Yeah, good thing she has lawyers to take care of that." I joked. Duncan smiled at me, then out of now where, Duncan said,"You look beautiful under the moon light." I blushed a bright shade of red. I wasn't sure what to say next. I could hear footsteps behind me. "What are te doing?" a preppy C.I.T voice detto behind me. It was Courtney. She dragged Duncan up and said, "C'mon Dunky, let's go back to camp." she commanded. Duncan dragged his hand away. "No, Courtney, you're always trying to change me, te act like you're my mom, and you're way too clingy. Court, if te don't let me have my freedom then, WE ARE THROUGH!" he screamed. I looked shocked. Courtney looked even più shocked. "Fine, I don't care! I shouldn't have thrown myself under a neanderthal's Amore and care anyway." she bragged. I stood up just about to blow my top. I can't exactly justify why I was so angry, I just was. "Hey, stuck up snobby princess, Duncan is not a neanderthal! He is the sweetest guy in the world, and if te are too dumb to notice that, then that's your lost!" I yelled. My face was red. There was a moment of silence. I needed to calm down so I ran off into the woods since we weren't allowed to go indoors, and tried to get myself lost. I found a spot, far away from camp grounds. I wish I would just die so I wouldn't have to face anyone else in my life. I sat there da a river for hours and hours. I heard rustling in the bushes. Crap, I thought I was far away from camp. Trent came out of the bushes. Ugh, I didn't want to talk to him. "Hey Gwen, you've been missing for a while." he said. I sighed. "Um, yah, I was just y'know, getting away from everyone." I tried to say with a pleasant tone. Trent got close to me. "Trent, I'm not in the mood." I shooed him away. "And te are in the mood to talk to Duncan? Courtney told me what happened the other day." he confessed. "Really? That snitch!" I screamed. "Hey, don't blame Courtney, she was just trying to tell the truth." he defended her. "Since when did te and Courtney become so close?" I asked. Trent rolled his eyes at me. "Since you've been interested in that mo-hawk wearing punk, Dun-" he was cut off. "Is there a problem here?" a familiar voice asked. It was Duncan. Trent stood up. "Nothing, just watch your back." he detto as he exited the area. Duncan sat down on the albero stump successivo to me. I was already blushing. "Thanks for standing up for me out there. It always feels satisfying to know that someone's got your back." he thanked me. "Um, no problem. Just being a good friend." I hesitated. He snorted, "I knew te liked me." We both laughed at the same time. I gave Duncan a baciare on the cheek. "Thanks, for everything." I detto as I left the woods.I feel much better now. I walked to the Killer canguro tent to find that it was on fire. WAIT, IT WAS ON FIRE! I heard footsteps run away as I tried to retrieve water to take out the fire. It was finally out. Duncan came up from behind me and put his hand on my shoulder. "Wow, that sucks. What happened to the tent?" he asked. "It was put on freakin' fire! Can te not see the ashes!?" I was enraged. He held me close to him. "Calm down pasty.Just take a deep breath." he comforted me. I hugged him as my body was still close to his. We then stared into each others eyes for a long time. Noah then came out have the woods. "Hey, have any of te guys seen Cody?" he asked. Noah paused and looked at us gazing into each others eyes." Oh, sorry bro, didn't mean to interrupt." he continued. Noah then walked away. Just to make the moment less awkward, I said, "Well, I'm tired I should probably get to bed." "Sorry to burst your bubble pasty, but we have no tent." he informed me. "That's right, so get to work and te can call me when it's done." I joked. Duncan laughed. I lied down on the erba with the rest of my teammates. "Hey G-Gwen." Cody stuttered. "Hey Cody. I think Noah was asking for you." I tried to conversation. "Yeah, we caught up. Well, goodnight."
"Night."
We all woke up to Chris' annoying toro horn. "Good morning campers! We are coming to the end of our third and final giorno of the wilderness. Only 2 Kangaroos remain sane, Duncan and Gwen. 5 of the Salamanders remain sane, Courtney(i changed her team), Sierra, Izzy, Geoff, and Beth. Looks like this is a tough one for the kangaroos. Oh yeah, and we might add a few surprises throughout the giorno so stay on your feet. That is all." he announced. I looked around. Wow, I guess everyone went insane while I was sleeping. "Morning sunshine," Duncan greeted me, "I guess it's just te and me." I yawned.

"Yeah, but there's no way we are going to beat the salamanders. I'm about to go insane!"
"Hey, don't worry yourself. I got'cha."

I rolled my eyes at him. Suddenly, I felt my stomach growl. "I'm starved. Let's go get something to eat." We both got up and I realized a cespuglio, bush of blueberries. "Yes, my favorite!" I cheered. I chowed down on blueberries until I was full. "Finally, a decent meal." Duncan joked. "We should get started back on the tent." I tried to persuade him. Duncan grabbed my hand.

"What's the rush pasty? Let's just enjoy the giorno together." he flattered me. Of course, I blushed. Duncan dragged me over to a nice big oak albero with a picnic set under it.
"Duncan, what is this?"
"A picnic. I just thought that I should get to know te a little better."

He took a sede, sedile on the blanket and patted a spazio successivo to him. I sat down. "Where did te get all of this stuff from?" I curiously asked. " I ha rubato, stola it from Chef. Did te know that that dude has a load of this stuff back in his cabin?" he joked. "If Chris sees us, we are so eliminated!" I joked. "C'mon pasty, take chances." he encouraged me. Duncan placed a fiore in my hair. "I saw it in one of those chick flicks Courtney made me watch." Duncan commented. We ate sandwiches, chicken legs, and grapes for lunch. Duncan then pulled out a radio.
"Don't te kinda need a cord and outlet?"
"This one is battery powered."
"Duncan you're awesome!"

He started playing Paramore.

"I sneaked back to the cabins to get the CD."

We just sat there and listened to the music. I saw Duncan scooch closer to me. He was leaning in for a kiss. I didn't know what do do, so I leaned in too. We were inches away from baciare until Potenza made an announcement. "Congratulations to the Killer Kangaroos! The Salamanders have totally Lost it and they're sending someone home tonight.As for the Kangaroos, te have invincibility and a five stella, star spaghetti and polpetta dinner! Meet me back at the campfire ceremony for elimination!" "Yes, we won!" Duncan cheered as he picked me up and spun me around. We both walked back to the cabins. "See te around pasty!" he called after me as he went into the boys cabin. I walked into the cabina and everyone clapped except for Courtney. Yeah, must've been a bad choice to pick a bunk under her. It was cena time and there was one più sede, sedile available at my table. Just as Duncan was about to take it, Trent did. I didn't talk to him.He grabbed my cheek and kissed me on the lips. I pushed away. "What the caramella fondente, fudge (no curses) Trent?!" Duncan came over there and pushed him off of his seat. "Yeah dude, not cool!" he screamed at Trent. It was suddenly silent. "What do te care? You're two aren't dating!" Trent screamed back. Duncan had a frustrated look on his face. "Whatever dude." Trent detto as he left the mess hall. Duncan stormed off in the opposite direction and everyone was looking at me. I just continued to eat my spaghetti, trying to ignore everyone. I finished first and ran off to my cabina and saw Courtney standing there.

"Oh,h-hi Courtney. What's up." I stuttered.
