The O.C.
Fan Fiction by elavndrc
Summary: Within a week of taking in Ryan, Sandy Cohen is once again dumped with another teenager. Evangelia Silver's adoptive mother has just died, and due to a legal mistake she wasn't supposed to be put up for adoption, she should've been with Sandy the entire time. 20 years earlier he signed a legal guardian contract for his former best friend, Mika Nakashima when she found out she was impregnated by a suave French businessman, Pierre Silver. Evan becomes best friends with Ryan and Seth and become a fantastic trio. Will trouble come their way in the form of Luke, Marissa, and Summer?
--------------------
Sandy Cohen parked his car easily in his regular space, perturbed by the unfamiliar car parked in the guest parking space. But he whistled as he made his way to the front door. He had sucessfully reviewed all his clients and finished all his paperwork for the first time in five years. It was a good day for him.
As he entered through the door and was spotted by his wife who was waiting for him, he realized his luck had clumped together throughout the day at work and ran out now.
"What's wrong?"
"You tell me." She gestured to the living room which was right around the corner. Sandy felt the walls suddenly close in, similar to the suspense scenes in drama movies as he walked into the living room. Where a woman and a teenager were seated, he knew the woman as a lawyer but as the girl lifted her face...
"Mika?!" He suddenly understood. The woman stood up.
"Mr. Cohen, I know you're a lawyer I assume you know what's going on and what the procedues are." She said indicating the paperwork spread out on the coffee table. "On Mika Nakashima's will it clearly states..."
"Don't you think we should talk about this somewhere else?" Sandy said obviously indicating the presence of Evan.
"I can handle it." Evan said protesting. Sandy nodded. He gestured for the lawyer to continue.
"it clearly states that you are the sole legal guardian to Evangelia Silver if anything shall happen to her. But because of a legal paperwork misunderstanding after Miss. Nakashima died in a car accident when Evangelia was three, she was put up for adoption and was adopted by Miss. Ayumi Hamasaki, who is her godmother. Last week her godmother died due to breast cancer. And now if you sign this right here, you will become Evangelia's legal guardian until she is 18 years of age." The lawyer recited as if she said this everday of her life.
Sandy nodded. He reached for the pen in his shirt pocket and skimmed over the details in the contract as he signed it.
Evan's hands shook as she watched her mother's former best friend signed the contract without holding back. She didn't know what to say, so she remained silent. She didn't know how she would stay here. She should've ran, she knew the moment she saw the house. She didn't belong, the cars in the driveway, the luxurious couch she was sitting on. She wasn't worthy of any of these material posessions, she was never worthy and she never would be.
-----------------
A/N: I don't know if this story is a little too vague, I just had this idea when I watched the first episode of the show. I hope the shows last for a long time... :-) I would really appreciate any suggestions anyone has to the plotline. I have the entire story planned out except for the ending so I could take ANY suggestions :-). Comments and Criticisms are most welcome! Thanks!
