Chapter 1: The Super Holiday
"This year, Ryan. I am telling you, this year Chrismukkah is going to sweep the nation. It will be huge!" Seth was so excited for his favorite time of year.
"Whatever Seth. You just keep telling yourself that."
"Ryan! You are such a pessimist. Come on, lighten up. Chrismukkah is going to sweep the nation this year."
"Seth. That is exactly what you said last year and guess what? It never happened!"
"You know what? I don't have to listen to all this dark, angsty, broody stuff you do." Seth feigned offense. "I have to go meet the girl of my dreams for a little preChrismukkah make out session." And with that he left with a dramatic slam of the door.
Ryan just laughed. His brother was so perky and happy all the time now. Sometimes it got annoying, but Ryan was happy for him. For once in their lives everyone was happy.
Summer was pacing around her room. Seth was sitting on her bed. She didn't know how to tell him. This would kill him and she knew it. Besides it was Chrsimukkah! His favorite holiday. Maybe she shouldn't. 'No!' she thought. 'It had to be done. She couldn't live with the guilt of not telling him for one more minute.
"Summer! Would you stop pacing! Your making me dizzy. Whatever it is, it can't be that bad."
"Seth, after I tell you this you are totally gonna hate me forever and I completely understand, but ICheatedOnYou" She closed her eyes afraid of his reaction.
"What? Summer I so did not get a word of that." She sighed in frustration. "Summer, come on, quit this and just talk to me."
"Seth," She said as she started to cry, this was it and she knew it. "I am so sorry, but I cheated on you."
"What?" He said in disbelief. "Summer, how could you? Who was it?" He was screaming now "You know what? Never mind I'm outta here!"
"Seth! Wait! Please! Let me explain! Please Seth! Please! I'm sorry!" She called after him all the way out of the house. He jumped into the range rover and drove away. He looked back only once just in time to see the love of his life collapse on to the concrete crying after him. He pushed down harder on the accelerator.
Seth slammed the car door shut as he stomped into the house. Making his presence known, he preceded to stomp all the way up to his bedroom and slam that door before collapsing onto his bed.
How could she do this to him? They were in love! Nothing was ever supposed to tear them apart ever again! They had been through so much drama together. Now they were finally happy. But then she had to go and cheat on him. He didn't even care who it was with. He didn't want to know. It would just add to the pain.
He heard a knocking on his door. Wondering what had taken them so long after hearing his grand entrance he got up to open it and tell the person to go away.
But it was too late Ryan was already in the room.
"Hey Dude! Whats up? Nice entrance by the way."
"Go away!"
"Not until you tell me what happened."
"Nothing happened."
"Wanna talk about it?"
"No."
"Whoa. Seth Cohen is passing up the opportunity to talk about himself? I never thought I'd see the day."
"Ha Ha. Your a regular Jay Leno, now aren't you."
"Seth, come on, talk to me."
"Why?"
"It's about Summer isn't it?"
"God. How do you know these things?"
"Just tell me."
"Summer. She- she-"
"She what? Dude, just say it."
"She cheated on me. Okay? You happy now?"
"Wow. Seth, man, I'm so sorry."
"Yeah well whatever. Now will you leave?"
Ryan left Seth alone to sort through his thoughts
Ryan was floored. Sure him and Summer had never been all that close but I mean come on. She should have known not to do this to him at Chrismukkah! She should have known not to do this at all! God, was he actually naive enough to think that everything would be good in Newport for more than a week?
Him and Marissa had actually been doing pretty good. There was no drama or fights to speak of. Everyone knew that they were both working hard to keep it that way. They didn't want to fight before they all went off to separate colleges. They didn't know who was going where yet but it was rare they would all go to the same college. He and Seth hadn't even applied to more than two of the same places.
He sighed as he went to start setting up for the annual Chrismukkah dinner. Everyone would be there. Except Summer.
Seth was staring at the ceiling thinking about Summer, of course, when his dad walked in. His father had no idea of what was going on and Seth had no intention of telling him.
"Hey Seth, ya ready for Chrismukkah dinner? Your favorite meal of the year."
"Yeah," he said unenthusiastically "I'll be right down." Sandy, who was too preoccupied with getting his tie on right, didn't notice and left without another word. Seth was not sure to feel relieved or offended by this but got up to get ready anyway.
When he got downstairs everyone was already there. Ryan, however, was not the only one to notice Summer missing.
He had to deflect questions all evening from people asking about her. He would just subtly change the topic. He had already planned how to avoid answering all questions when he was sitting in his room. Just as he was out of ideas and his mother was asking him yet another question, the doorbell rang.
'Saved by the bell' he thought to himself as he went to answer it. Ryan, as always, had beat him to it. As the door swung open he saw a petite figure standing behind Ryan
"God no!" he said in a voice barely below a shout.
"Summer, I think you should go" Ryan said, trying to push her out the door. "You shouldn't be here"
Seth could see her tear stained face as she slipped under Ryan's arm and into the house.
"Cohen. I am so sorry I never meant for it to happen. It was an accident." Nobody in the room had any idea what she was talking about except for Seth and Ryan, but they could see the pain written clearly on both faces.
"An accident! You cheated on me by accident! What? Did you just forget that you and me were together and hook up with the first random guy you saw?"
"It wasn't like that and you know it!" She yelled back in his face. "I love you and I always will. I understand if you are angry but you have to at least try to forgive me Seth! Please! Just hear me out! Just give me a chance!"
"You want a chance? A chance like the one you gave me when I went to Tahiti? In case you forgot you didn't give me a frickin' chance Summer! You know what? I was just fine before you came into my life and I think I will be just fine without you in it now."
With that he walked out of the house knowing what he said was true. He didn't need Summer to complete him. He would be just fine on his own. He got into the Range Rover and drove away and this time, he didn't look back. Not even once.
