Times Have Changed

Disclaimer- I don't own the OC or anything associated with it.

This story is about Newport Beach in ten years. This is what has happened in the last ten years......

Ryan Atwood- He went and lived with Theresa and the baby turned out to be his. He kept in touch with everyone for awhile but he soon lost contact. Trouble hit when Theresa died suddenly of cancer which she knew about but no one else. Ryan moved to New York after that.(about 5 years ago) That is where he met Beconna and he soon married her but that also ended in trouble, divorce(2 years ago). They also had a child, a daughter who Ryan also has custody. Now he is bringing his daughters home to Newport after another relationship failed.

Alexis Shane Atwood- Alexis is Ryan's 9 and half year old daughter she is everything Ryan doesn't need in daughter. She is a rebel and is constantly in trouble. Living in New York for Alexis means already partying at nine and staying out late and the age of nine. When she is grounded she sneaks out and she isn't even a teenager yet.

Halle Aleia Atwood- Halle is Ryan's two year old daughter. She is typical toddler, she laughs, she cries, and she is a daddies' girl. She is Ryan's pride and joy. Alexis hates Halle's guts.

Marissa Cooper- After her mother's marriage Marissa went down hill, when Ryan turned out to be a father she ran away. When her mother tracked her down she sent to a school for the troubled teenagers and even then she wasn't helped. Once she turned eighteen she left the school and turned to a friend and ran off to LA where she turned to a life of drugs and partying, and most of all sex. Her family doesn't even know where she is.

Summer Roberts- Summer is the only one who knows wher Marissa is. She knows because she is the one who introduced Marissa to streets of LA. After Seth left she went into a depression, her father not knowing what to do moved his family to LA. Summer met some friends there that numbed her feeling of lost with drugs, big time drugs. That is her knew life and she has no plans of leaving it behind.

Seth Cohen- When he left for Tahiti he didn't really have a plan except for the fact that he was getting away from Newport and the life of being rich. Within two weeks of being in Tahiti Sandy tracked him down and brought him home. But by then Summer was gone. He went to school and became a lawyer just as his dad did. About two years ago he met Joanina. They are now engaged and are to be married in the fall.

Joanina Mackenzie- Joanina grew up in San Deigo with her parents. Her life changed when one summer her family went to Newport Beach for vacation. That is when she met Seth Cohen her love of her life. She knew that it might be trouble getting involved with a family with so many problems, but she didn't know how much trouble. She pulled into the life of being rich. She was the next Julie Nichol, she cheated on Seth her love but she felt like she didn't have any control. She chased after younger men. Her relationship with the pool boy was all about sex. Seth didn't know about her secret romances and she wasn't telling him either.

Kirsten Cohen- After seeing Theresa and her choices she made abotu her pregnancy, she decided to confess to Sandy about her abortion she had when she was seventeen. The baby was Jimmy's and already knew about. Sandy was furious that Kirsten had hidden that big an issue and he moved out and filed for divorce. Kirsten eventually convinced Sandy to come home and burn the divorce papers.

Sandy Cohen- When he left Kirsten he turned to Julie Nichol for some twisted reason. The hooked up for months while Sandy was separated, Kirsten doesn't know about them hooking up and neither does Caleb. Sandy regreted this for along time especially since a month after Kirsten and Sandy reconciled, Julie showed up pregnant. Caleb thinks it is his but Julie had her son tested after he was born and he is Sandy's.

Julie Nichol- Julie was never faithful to Caleb. Of course there was Sandy, and other men, but she also cheated with Jimmy. She told Caleb that she was okay with the fact that they didn't have any money, but she needed money which Jimmy had. She also had a son with Caleb as everyone thought, but she knew that her son belonged to Sandy Cohen. Other than that her marriage with Caleb is perfectly fine.

Caleb Nichol- He lost all of his money, but managed not to get any jail time. He thought his new life was perfect, he was married, and he had a new son, but only if he knew what really was going on.

Carter Shawn Nichol- He is the eight year old son of Julie and Caleb Nichol or that's what he thinks. He is the perfect son, loves both of his parents and enjoys spending tme with them, but he doesn't realize what is going on around him and what his life is going to become.

Jimmy Cooper- Jimmy had many problems his daughter disappeared, his girlfriend disappeared, and he slept with Julie Nichol while she was married and he was dating Hailey. He fell into a deep depression. He couldn't escape from it, until one day he attempted to kill himself, with pain killers, but it didn't work. After that he decided the only way to escape was to leave and which he did he moved the LA.

Hailey Nichol- Hailey felt as though her relationship with Jimmy was way to serious nd she ran off as she always did. Without her father's money she turned back to the life as stripper but this time she went big time in Las Vegas everyone wanted her and everyone got her. She wanted to leave her life as a stripper but she had nowhere to turn, so she continued her life that she hated so much.

Kaitlyn Cooper- Now eighteen she ruled Newport. Constantly rebelled against Julie. Her father left her, Marissa left her and Julie didn't give a damn about her. She needed attention so she turned to the partying life of Newport. She was a hard-core party girl. When the guys wanted sex they came to her. She is trouble waiting to happen.

If you think this is good idea please review and I will continue.
