A/N: Hello and welcome to the first chapter of my story Hurt. It focuses on Courtney after Total Drama, when she is sent to the boarding school of her dreams but with a twist almost everyone from the show will also be attending. This takes places right after TDWT. This is mostly a DXC story, but also focuses more on Courtney herself. Anyway this is my first story so please be nice but also give me tips! Please review!

I was scared.

I can't explain why, it was just my parents. They never did anything wrong to me. They were thoughtful, loving great parents.

I was scared because they saw everything.

They knew everything.

They saw what I did, every move I made while I was on Total Drama.

Going on that stupid show was the worst decision I had ever made. And coming back with nothing was the worst feeling.

I felt humiliated. Defeated. Betrayed.

I didn't want to be questioned about the show. I didn't want my parents to ask pointless questions that would just make me upset. I wouldn't even be surprised if they said, "Courtney, darling what were you thinking?" When I walked through the door. I broke the rules, I stole, I made enemies, I slapped someone for crying out loud! But worst of all I dated Duncan.

They wouldn't approve of that one. I didn't want them to be disappointed in me. I try so hard to be the best I can be but then I ruin it by dating Duncan and he wasn't worth it. Not by a long shot. If they DID accept the fact I was with Duncan, my dad would say he's a good for nothing punk who will end out in prison anyway. My mother would try to comfort me telling me there are so many more guys out there for me. And my sister she would laugh at my face for being so stupid.

Amy. Her name sent chills down my spine. I hate her. I hate my sister. If she wasn't around, I wouldn't be so pushy and bossy. I might have actually HAD friends on Total Drama if she wasn't around. She taught me to be how I am. She made me uptight, bossy, and a control freak. She is the reason I push people away.

Everyone on Total Drama think I'M bossy? They haven't met Amy. She is like me, times ten. Amy had chocolate brown eyes and long brown hair to match it. Her teeth were pure white and perfectly straight without the help of braces. She attended Millweed Prep, one of the smartest high schools in Canada, and she was the tiniest, shortest flyer on the cheerleading squad.

Millweed Prep was a school for gifted people, from musical geniuses to plain smart geniuses, every student had a gift. Amy's gift was math. Amy is the smartest person I know when it comes to math. She can solve any problem and if she can't right away she obsesses over it until she finds the answer.

Millweed Prep has a sister school, Gettingburg Prep boarding school. I have been trying to get into that school since sixth grade and they have still not accepted me. They would accept Amy in a heartbeat. I, on the other hand, have to wait until they finally accept me, like ungifted people. Gettingburg is like Millweed but for normal people. Millweed has a rule if the child is not gifted then they will not be accepted. Movie stars in Canada send their kids to Gettingburg because Millweed won't accept them. If you aren't: a movie star, a movie star's child, very very smart, or have a ton of money, you won't get into Gettingburg. Millweed isn't a boarding school though, just a prep school. I think I'm smart enough, I get mostly A's on my report cards and I never skip out on homework. I guess I'm not good enough.

After a three hour car ride, I arrive at my house. It looked the same, same bricks, same five windows, and the same bright red door with a green welcome mat under it, although I don't feel very welcomed by it.
