Chapters (The sequel to What College may bring)

Goodbye to everything I knew

The summer had definitely been all time. Ryan and Marissa along with Seth and Summer didn't waste a moment hanging out whether they were going to the beach, or going to see what was new at the bait shop.

She taped a box. But now as Marissa packed up her room this was it her last official morning in New Port with all of them. And she was a little worried about what it would be like without Seth and Summer around everyday. I mean true they weren't going to school so far away but it was definitely going to be weird.

Thank god she had Ryan because she didn't know if she was ready to face this alone. Even leaving Julie was frightening to Marissa even though she never would never admit it she still felt that way. Her thoughts we're broken when she heard a knock and in came Ryan. "Hey" he said smiling. She met him half way. "Hey" she said kissing him. They broke and a smile could be seen forming on Ryan's face. He scanned the room.

"Wow you look pretty much all packed up" he said scanning the room again. "Yeah I practically didn't sleep but I managed to get it done" she said. He smiled. "What are you doing here? I thought I was meeting you at the Cohen's?" she said confused. "Yeah you are I just he paused. "Had to get out of the house" she assumed. "Truth be told its getting a little sappy over at the Cohen mansion" he said with a laugh.

She smiled. "So I figured I take a break and come see how you're doing" he said laughing a little. "Of course well packing's pretty much down but I'm afraid the sap fest with Julie hasn't even begun yet. In fact I've barely left this room all morning" she said. He laughed. "Well you are gonna have to face her eventually you only got so much time until we get out of here" he said.

"I know you're house at 12" she said checking. "And it's ten now so I should get back. Start loading some of the stuff in the car" he said. "Right but I thought we were taking my car?" she said confused. "Oh we are. I meant help Seth get his stuff in the range rover because let's face it he's not the moving type" he said. "Lucky for him you are" she said teasing. He smiled.

"How's Summer doing?" he said hearing noise coming from her room. "Summer's packing is coming along but she's a little distracted as you can obviously tell" she said hearing a crash come from her room and Summer swearing loudly. "Yeah she sounds like she needs help" he assumed.

"Yeah I should go see if she's still alive under the mess" she said joking. "Alright well while you do that. I'm gonna head home see how things are going there and then I'll see you later" he said. She kissed him. "I will definitely see you later" she said with their foreheads pressed against each other.

"Okay. I love you" he said leaving. She smiled at the fact that after that night of laying it all out on the line they we're able to clearly state how they feel about each other. That was exactly what the summer was for them.

They had just over the break had instantly created a stable foundation for their relationship. "Ow damn it" she heard Summer say and she laughed going off to see just what her best friend was up too.

She slowly went into Summer's room. She looked around spotting Summer in the middle of the floor sorting throw clothes and she had to laugh. Summer looked up. "Oh hey Coop" she said.

"From the looks of things it looks like you could use some help" She said. "Yeah so how's everything going on you're end?" Summer said wondering. "All done actually" Marissa said. "You're all done that's so not fair" Summer said dramatically.

"Okay so I'm done with my packing so I thought you could use my help still think it's not fair" she said teasing. Summer smiled. "You're the best Coop. You could start over there. That's what I definitely need to take" she said pointing to a heap of clothes off to the side.

"And this here well I dunno really but I will definitely figure it out now that you're here" Summer said reassuring herself. "Okay Sum" Marissa said with a laugh. "Great" Summer said.

"Sum where are the boxes?" Marissa said. "Right out in the hall wasn't much room for those in here sorry" she said with a shrug. "Don't worry about it. I'll be back. You just figure out what you can do with that" Marissa said referring to the mess on the floor. "Okay" she said going back to the mess that was her room.

Meanwhile Ryan had just got back home. He went up to find's Seth room somewhat stable. "So how's it going buddy?" Ryan said walking in. "It's going alright. I managed to organize everything over there and I pretty much just have to pack this suit case and I'm good. Well that and load the car" Seth said.

"Yeah, so you want some help?. I'm done and I can't load the car until Marissa get's here" He said. "The keys are on the desk thanks bro" Seth said wasting no time and taking Ryan up on his offer. "Okay" Ryan said grabbing a box labeled Seth's and heading back down stairs.

He clicked open the car and shoved it in the back. "So I see Seth has got you doing his dirty work" Sandy said meeting him outside. "Yeah I figured I'd help until Marissa got here with the car. Since there's nothing else to do" Ryan said.

"I bet you're gonna be pretty happy about being away from Seth this year. Which means you won't end up cleaning up his messes or finishing his dirty work lucky you" he said with a laugh.

"Yeah don't tell him but I actually don't mind it so much. I mean let's face it Seth as close to a brother as I'm ever gonna have" Ryan said. "Trey doesn't fit into that?" Sandy said speaking as a concerned parent.

"No. Seth and Trey are two different people and I'm just glad I don't have to deal with Trey anymore" Ryan said. Sandy nodded. "Well you know just because you're leaving doesn't mean he interrupted "That this isn't still my home" Ryan said with a smile.

"Exactly" Sandy said. "I know and thanks Sandy. For finding me, for my mom, for this life, for saving me, for everything" Ryan said seriously. Sandy patted him on the back.

"Well you're apart of the family now which means once a Cohen always a Cohen" Sandy said in a joking manner. Ryan laughed. "It also means that just because it's time to go to College we don't forget to call and tell your parents what's going on" he reminded him.

"Are you kidding? Me forget to call you guys never happen" Ryan said with a crooked smile. Sandy smiled. "Don't forget to call Dawn every once in awhile too" He reminded him.

"Yeah I won't" Ryan said. "I'm gonna miss not having you guys around" Sandy said. "Yeah well don't be missing us too much we'll be for the weekend" Ryan said. "Right well the doors always open even if you come unannounced" Sandy said. "I'll remember that" Ryan said nodding. "Now come on maybe if I helped you out you'd get done faster" Sandy said. Ryan laughed and followed him inside.

Summer had went in to find her dad in his study. "Hey Dad" she said. He pulled off his glasses and stood. "Look at you College girl" he said. She immediately smiled hugging him. "I feel like I'm bailing on you like mom did" Summer said.

"Sweet heart you are not bailing and this isn't like your mother because you're not your mother. Besides I'm pretty sure I'll my hands full dealing with Julie and Kaitlyn now that she's back" Neil said. "I know Julie's sending her to Harbor. Poor doctor kim" She said joking.

He smiled. "Well you better go you don't want to be late" He said. "I love you daddy and I'll call you everyday" She said hugging him tightly. "I love you too sweetie and you'll be fine I just know it" he said.

Summer smiled sadly this was it the end of the chapter she called her childhood after she walked out that front door she would be in a way saying goodbye to her youth and hello to the adult world which from afar was scary for her. She was just glad she would have Cohen right there with her.

"And don't forget I'm always here if you need me" he said. "I won't daddy but I'll be okay. See you next weekend" she said. "I will see you next weekend" he said. "Bye" she said. "Good bye Summer" he said. And just like that she walked away from her father ready to leave it all behind and venture out into the unknown.

Marissa came into the living room after dragging her stuff out to the car. There stood Julie. She smiled. "Hey so I'm all done" Marissa said nervously. Julie nodded. "Good" Julie said hugging her. "You promise you'll call" Julie said. Marissa smiled sadly.

"Of course mom" She said. "And you'll drive safely?" Julie said. "Yes" Marissa said. "And you know you could always come home when you want" she said. She laughed. "I'll be back mom. I love you and you know that" Marissa said being sincere.

"I love you too Marissa" She said tearfully. Marissa hugged her again. "I'm gonna be fine mom" she reassured her mother. "I feel like I'm intruding" Kaitlyn cracked coming in. "No you're just in time" Marissa said with a laugh.

"For what?" she said. "For a Cooper family group hug. Get over her" Julie said to both girls. Kaitlyn rolled her eyes but came over as did Marissa. But the hug couldn't last forever and it was time to go. Marissa being the first to pull away.

"Take care of mom. And don't drive her crazy but don't forget to have fun" Marissa said to Kaitlyn. "I will" She said. "Good So I guess I'll see you next weekend" Marissa said. "Next weekend. Bye sweetie. Remember I love you" Julie said giving her one more hug. She smiled. "I love you too" Marissa said. "Bye Marissa" Kaitlyn said.

"Bye Kaity. See you soon mom" she said. "See you soon Marissa and don't forget to call" she said. "I won't I promise" Marissa said leaving her life as she knew it behind her and closing the chapter she called High School.
