Thanks so much for the encouraging reviews!

Madusa and the Wizard: Yay! I'm so glad you find Seth to be in character.. I know Ryan hasn't made much of an appearance yet, but don't worry he will soon.

Chiclete & Kursk: Yay! I'm glad you guys like the story.. the funniness won't last for long, I don't think, but I'm glad it's like that for now.

Yarrie: Well I have an idea but if you guys wanted to put your input, like who you think should be, then I'll take them into consideration. Of course, in the end I may end up just sticking with my original desicion and besides by next chapter it will be fairly obvious who is sick. But input is appreciated!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Hopefully, by Christmas, I'll own the complete box series of The OC. crosses fingers

Anyway. This is mostly just cute fluffiness around the Atwood family. Kinda Ryissa fluff. Next chapter everything gets fairly dark and serious, so I think you guys deserve a few chapters like this. This is also uber short, I apologize for that. Like I said it's just fluff. Enjoy it while it lasts people.

P.S. I'm sorry for the boring chapter names (i.e. Chapter 1.) Normally I name my chapters after songs but I can't think of any song names just yet.. so don't be surprised if a few chapters along chapter 4 or whatever suddenly has a song name and the other three chapters are still Chapters 1-3.

Wow. I so over used the word chapter there.

"Ryan! Ryan stop it. Summer and Seth are here! Our daughters are asleep next door." Marissa sleepily pushses Ryan away.

"I'm pretty sure Seth and Summer are familar with it all. They're the ones with three kids."

"But I don't want them thinking we're all.. dirty."

"C'mon. Can't you tell how dirty I am? Watch." Ryan kisses Marisa. "Oo. Wow. How much dirtier can I get." Marissa playfully slaps Ryan on the shoulder. He kisses her again and they are both completely oblivious to their door opening and loud screams following it.

"DADDY! STOP CHEWIN' MOMMY'S FACE OFF!"

"Mrs. Atwood?"

"Yeah. Hi. You're Blythe's teacher right?"

"That's right."

"Is there a problem with Blythe?"

"Well I'm slightly concerned about how things are at home."

Crap, Marissa thinks to herself. But she puts on an innocent voice. "Really? Why's that?"

"It's just.. today at school Blythe told everybody that her father was biting your face off the other night and that if she hadn't stopped him, he would have most likely... swallowed you whole."

Shit. "That's.. a funny story actually. Blythe.. she walked in on me and my husband. We were only kissing.. nothing more. She's only five so she... she doesn't know better."

"I think you and your husband might consider locking the door next time, Mrs. Atwood." The dial tone rings in Marissa's ear.

"Bitch." Marissa mutters.

"MOMMY! Mommy that's a bad word!" Blythe points an angry finger at Marissa.

This is, Marissa thinks, possibly one of the worst days of the month. Ever.

That Friday, Blythe comes home from school with a note in her hand. Her hand quavers as she hands it to Marissa and she quickly runs outside, to join Summer and Jackson in the hot tub.

Dear Mrs. Cooper

I also think, you might consider checking the room for small children before you permit a curse word to leave your lips.

Thanks
