Thank you guys so much for all of your amazing reviews they meant a lot to me, now here is a little bit of drama concerning the Ryan and Marissa 'love', I'm hoping you'll like it! Sorry for those of you who looked forward to the Newport scene, and there's also a cute S/S scene if I may say so myself I hope you enjoy!
Love Noor!
Marissa sat in front of her mirror dressing up ready to go shopping with Summer it was mid-January and it was snowing in New York, but the temperature was rising not too much, yet it was rising. She sighed softly and thought back of the last month which had been chaotic, she had been to Newport with Ryan and Seth and Summer of course and it was nice, quite formal but still very nice.
Then after Christmas came New Year she and Ryan had spent it together like they always did and had promised each other ever since they were little. They had promised, swore to always celebrate the New Year, a fresh start, together. This time though they went to a party later in the evening and that is where Ryan met a girl, Amy, she was blond stacked, super-model like, well off but not cocky, smart but not too much into herself, and for the last 2 weeks she had been her best friend's girlfriend. And Marissa Cooper hated it!
Yet another sigh escaped Marissa's lips she applied her new bought lip gloss on her plump rosy lips and smacked them together. One more time she looked in the mirror and nodded satisfied, she took her azure blue trench coat from of her bed she then linked her big light brown purse around her right arm opened the door of the bedroom and left her small save haven into the room she had come to despise seeing as Amy was lying on the couch with Ryan on top of her and they were kissing like they were some wild teenagers.
'Ugh you do know your room is merely 2 feet away…' Marissa whined as she walked towards the fridge and took out a bottled water, she opened it and drank a whole gulp.
'Uhuh…' Ryan said through the kiss with Amy, which in turn made Amy smile into the kiss.
Marissa made a weird face and let out a soft noise. 'Ugh just…swallowing back some…vomit!' she said and started to walk towards the door. She looked back at Ryan and his new girl toy and shook her head, she didn't even know him anymore, he wasn't supposed to be like this.
'Well I'm off…bye…' she said and awaited his response not hers, yet all she got was her giggly response as Ryan's lips attacked Amy's neck. Amy opened her eyes and looked right into Marissa's beautiful ones. 'Bye Ma…rissa…' she said through her laughs and closed them again.
Marissa yet again loathed the living room, she shook her head angrily and opened the door just in time to see Summer drive into Marissa and Ryan's street with her black mini cooper a gift she had received from her father. Marissa smashed the door shut as she walked towards the car, she didn't know why she felt this way or why she was so angry with Ryan. He finally had a girlfriend he wasn't fooling around anymore she should be proud of him yet all she could feel was abhorrence and sadness. He was starting to care for another girl, and most likely if she was the one for him she being Amy, would be his number one. And Marissa would be knocked off the first place and pushed down to the second. That's what she hated about this situation right?
Marissa got into the front seat and closed the door with a loud thud; Summer averted her eyes from the road and looked at Marissa. 'Wow someone's in a mood…' she said while gassing and driving out of the street which was covered with white snow.
'No I'm not!' Marissa snapped making Summer's eyes roll and nod her head. 'Sorry' she said immediately after she snapped, she didn't mean to be mad at Summer she was just hating this feeling she had.
'It's okay…want to talk about what got you in this mood…' Summer asked and then put up her hand to stop Marissa from saying anything. 'Or wait let me guess…Amy?' she said and when she saw Marissa's hatred expression she had gotten her answer, she laughed a little and shook her head at her friend.
'It's just that I know Ryan, and now he's not the person I knew anymore. I'm Marissa, I'm his best friend, I'm the one he always talks to we do everything together we always have and now suddenly I haven't talked to him in two weeks, two weeks, because he's been going out on stupid dates with that stupid Amy, or he's been at her house, or she's at ours and they're all over each other!' Marissa stopped for a second to breath and she continued. 'The only thing we've said to each other, is hey, goodnight, where are you going, where were you, at Amy's. Those are the only words that have been used by us.' Marissa half yelled while shaking her head furiously.
'Marissa why don't you just tell him that, talk to him Ryan will understand, just tell him you've been feeling so crappy lately.' Summer said somehow she started to wonder if there was more to it, to this rant of Marissa's but she knew she could say anything not now, it was too fresh.
'Yeah I think I will…today Amy goes to her parents and Ryan's staying here.' Marissa said. Marissa looked out of the small window and could feel a lump in her throat things weren't supposed to be this way they were supposed to be better, she and Ryan weren't supposed to grow apart like this. But she could feel it, they were drifting apart, Marissa felt as if she was starting to lose her best friend, and the feeling made her sick to her stomach.
'Okay we're here.' Came Summer's sweet cheerful voice as she parked the car and took the keys out of the ignition. Marissa nodded her head merely and opened her side of the car, she was wearing her black boots, and her light blue skinny jeans, which were in her boots.
Summer and Marissa sat in a small café/restaurant they talked among each other, and smiled some time. 'Ugh I'm so tired of all that shopping…and we didn't even buy that much.' Marissa said while taking a sip from her coffee. Summer nodded her head in agreement and sat back in her comfortable chair she took a sip from her drink as well and decided that now was the time to bring the whole Ryan situation up.
'Coop…have you told him yet?' Summer asked while she also tried to read Marissa's facial expression when she didn't see any she waited for her to speak.
'Told who what?' Marissa asked, in the back of her mind she thought she knew where this was going, but she wanted to stretch it out as long as she could.
'Ryan, that you like him.' Summer said softly and once more she awaited Marissa's response anxiously, she could hear Marissa laugh slightly and look into Summer's eyes as if she was saying the world's stupidest thing, unfortunately for her, her eyes were giving everything away.
'What are you crazy I so do not like Ryan…he's my best friend…' Marissa said and looked away from Summer. 'But the thing is that I do like him, and I want to be with him and want to be the one who he kisses, I want to make love to him and marry him, and oh God what is wrong with me…I can't be in love with him, he's my best friend, my best friend.' Marissa said as she put her head in her hands, Summer looked at her sympathetically she got out of her chair and went to sit next to Marissa.
'Maybe you just need to tell him that…' she said softly, she held Marissa's hands in hers forcing her to look up and lock their eyes.
'I can't he'll never be able to understand or forgive me for screwing with something he never seemed to have.' Marissa said sorrowfully. She looked at Summer and couldn't help but let the tear that she had been holding gush down her cheek, before it ran down to her chin where it would fall of and drop onto her jean, leaving behind a wet stain which would stay there for a few minutes until it would naturally dry and disappear as if it had never fallen, she erased the evidence before anyone beside her or Summer would notice.
'Coop…' Summer said unsure as she saw her best friend build back up the walls which hadn't been there previously she saw her put on a fake smile and shake her head, while shaking the thoughts out of her mind.
'You know I'm going to that party I was invited to, you can come if you want.' Marissa said as she watched Summer make her way back to her own chair, she let a sigh escape her mouth one which didn't go unnoticed by Marissa, but Marissa acted as if she never heard nor saw it.
'I can't I promised Seth we'd have a night to ourselves his work has been catching up to him and mine hasn't been rather quiet lately…sorry, but uhm I thought you were going to spend the night with Ryan you know like old times.' Summer said a little hesitant.
'Ryan probably made last minute plans with Amy going with her to her parents…whatever, I'm going to party something I haven't done in a very long time.' Marissa said as she finished the last of her coffee, she put the cup back down and looked at Summer waiting for her to say something she knew she was going to say something that was just how Summer was, she'd never give up without a fight.
'But you said in the car that you'd…' Summer started but was caught of by Marissa who got out of her chair and started to walk towards her.
'Look Sum you don't have to worry okay, go have fun I plan to.' She said and with one last kiss on her cheek, Marissa walked out of the door, leaving some dollar bills behind. Summer shook her head sadly Marissa was starting to fade away, something she really didn't want she just didn't know how to stop it, so with one last sigh Summer got out of her chair as well, leaving a rather small tip behind for the waitress, she wasn't the girl that didn't have to think about money anymore, she took her black coat which had been hanging around her chair and slipped her arms through it, she left with Marissa on her mind.
Their two bedroom apartment looked good, especially since she and he had taken the liberty to clean it in the weekend, Summer smiled as she looked at a picture of Seth, Ryan, Marissa and herself. She shook her head yet again, it seemed that was the only thing she seemed to be doing lately shake her head but never really take the time to make a difference, to figure out a way to help.
The door of the apartment closed with a thud signifying someone else was home someone she didn't expect to be there until later that night. 'Hey you're home early.' She said as she walked around the corner and came face to face with the love of her life, who had been her boyfriend since high school.
'Hey…' Seth said while putting down his black suitcase and taking of his jacket and with that his indigo suit jacket. He walked up to his beautiful girlfriend and captured her lips in his own.
Summer could smell his cologne and as Seth's tongue found his way inside her mouth, she could feel the effect he seemed to have every time he did this to her, her knees began to feel like jelly, and she knew she would fall if she did not wrap her arms around his neck. After a few minutes of what could only be described as a passionate breath taking kiss, they broke apart and smiled at each other.
'I thought I'd surprise you.' Seth said showing his teeth while smiling, Summer couldn't help but smile back and kiss him on his cheek this time before walking towards the kitchen.
'I am not that surprised…I mean I'm your drug Cohen how could you not want to come home early?' she asked rather rhetorically, she looked back at her boyfriend her eyebrow raised and her hands on her hips daring him to say something sarcastic or comical.
'How could I not…' Seth said sarcastically and smiled at Summer, as he watched her hands drop and additionally her jaw. Good job buddy Seth thought, but he would be swallowing his thought the minute Summer opened her mouth to speak and he knew it, he just wanted to enjoy his glory while it lasted.
'That's it there's not going to be any love making for a month…in fact there's not going to be any affection for as long as a month, and you've got all of that to thank your pretty big mouth for.' Summer said as she walked entirely away swaying her hips seductively as she did.
'This is going to be hard.' Seth said to himself as he followed Summer into the kitchen, he knew that she would actually hold on to this for a maximum of two weeks and than she would explode telling him he was about to get lucky and that she had done some thinking and because he had been handling his punishment so well she would reward him, which meant they would basically make love until they were too worn out to move, it's what kept his relationship interesting and he loved Summer for that.
'I love you so much…' Seth said before he pulsated inside of his beautiful girlfriend and collapsed on her chest; both were out of breath after the amazing love making they had been doing just mere seconds ago. Seth smiled as he lay back down next to Summer and took her in his arms while kissing her temple and eventually letting out a quick laugh.
'Okay I know…my threat didn't even last three hours, but at least we got a good night out of it.' Summer said while smiling at Seth, he kissed her on the tip of her nose and told her that they sure did.
'So what's wrong?' he said while watching her as she stared off into space, she shook her head while laughing slightly.
'Is it that obvious?' she asked him and he didn't say anything which was a sign for her to go on. 'I'm just worried…about Marissa…I feel like she has the feeling that she doesn't belong anymore you know…like she has no one, and I don't want her to feel that.' Summer said and took another deep breath, she looked at Seth and he looked back at her with his sympathetic look in his eyes, he said nothing they just simply watched each other.
'Marissa?' Ryan said as he came out of his room and looked at his best friend, a smile made its way to his face and he was about to hug her when he heard the tone of her voice and what she said.
'Ryan? Hey…I didn't recognize you without Amy sucking up your face.' Marissa said somewhat cantankerous. She looked at him with what to Ryan only could be portrayed as abhorrence a look he had never received from her, she locked her eyes with his for only a mere second and than started to walk towards her room.
Ryan stood shocked in his spot, why was she so unbelievably mad at him, and why didn't his legs move when he told them to. After what seemed like forever Ryan followed Marissa and looked at her as she took of her dark jeans and let them slid to the floor leaving her in her black panties.
'Uhm care to explain the outburst?' Ryan asked as he looked at his best friend seeing her move to her closet and take out a black dress, one that had an open back but wasn't all to fancy yet it looked amazing on her, Ryan remembered.
'Sorry…I'm just stressed out…it was nothing personal.' Marissa said moderately distant. She looked back at her best friend of twenty-two years.
'Look Riss I know I've been hanging out with Amy a lot and I kind of neglected you in the process, but I want to make that up to you starting tonight, I thought I'd cook some dinner and you could sit your lazy ass down while watching some movie with me, just like old times…what you'd say?' Ryan asked her with a hopeful smile on his face.
'I'm going to this party I got invited to, so another time…okay.' Marissa said as she applied some lip balm on her lips and patted them together, she looked at herself in the mirror and was satisfied with how she looked. She took her purse in hand and her coat.
'I'll just warm the food up when I get back…don't wait up.' She said and walked away without even a goodbye or a see you later, not even a kiss on the cheek. Ryan leaned back against his best friend's doorframe with a confused look on his face.
'Bye…' he called after her but it was already too late she was already gone, Ryan shook his head and walked towards the telephone, he had no intention of cooking for himself, so instead he thought he'd just order a pizza.
Reviews make my day!
