After dinner at the Rainforest Café, Kirsten, Julie and Caitlin headed to the grocery store to stock up on some food for the condo, while Sandy and Jimmy took the rest of the kids over to DisneyQuest, a huge interactive arcade.
"Ry… man, look how sweet this is," Luke yelled to Ryan to come over and check out the simulating roller coaster that you can design and then ride.
"Let's do it"
"Hey I wanna help," Seth pleaded like a five year old.
"Seth, go get dad to do it with you," Ryan said never even looking up from the screen he was currently concentrating on.
Seth knew this was going to happen. It always did, when Ryan got with his friends, he completely forgot Seth was even alive let alone in the same room. Ryan had Luke, Summer had Marissa and who did Seth have? As usual, nobody.
It was after midnight when the gang finally headed back to the condo ready for bed.
By two a.m. everyone was sleeping except for Ryan and Luke.
"Dude?" Luke whispered to Ryan to make sure he was awake.
"Ya, I'm awake," Ryan whispered back as to not wake up Seth, "what time is it?"
Luke glanced at the alarm clock on the night stand beside him, "2:07," Luke replied in a hushed tone.
"Do you think he is really sleeping by now?" Ryan questioned.
"Yea, he has to be."
Ryan and Luke quietly got up from their queen sized bed and headed downstairs to the kitchen.
"What kind of stuff should I grab?" Ryan asked.
"Well, first get a bowl of hot water and see if your mom bought like any syrup or chocolate sauce." Luke told Ryan as he rummaged through some cupboards.
"Hey, how about shaving cream?" Ryan questioned.
"YA! That would be good," Luke said excitedly.
After Ryan and Luke got all of their materials out of the kitchen and Sandy's bathroom, they tiptoed their ways back upstairs to their own bedroom, where Seth laid sound asleep.
"Good, he is snoring," Ryan stated as they approached the door.
Just as they were stepping into their bedroom, a small body walked out of the room next door and bumped into Luke who was holding the bowl of water.
Summer screeched, and Luke covered her mouth.
"Shhhh," Ryan and Luke said unison.
"What the heck are you two doing?" Summer asked while she studied the water spots that were now on her pajama shirt.
"Nothing, go back to bed."
"You two are up to something," Summer stated obviously, "now tell me what it is or I will go wake up your parents."
"Okay, Okay," Ryan gave in, "we are playing some harmless tricks on Seth.
"You two are soo immature; we haven't done these kinds of things since like last year." Summer stated in disgust.
"Okay Summer," Luke agreed just trying to get rid of her now, "now go back to bed, or we will tell the parent's tomorrow morning that you were apart of the whole thing and you will get in trouble too."
"Yea, fine, I will go back to bed, because this is so not worth getting in trouble over," Summer grumbled, "night losers"
"Uh, finally," Ryan sighed as he began to walk in to their room again.
Ryan and Luke were sound asleep later that morning, when they heard, Seth get up and start screaming and yelling.
"What the..? I AM GOING TO KILL THEM," Seth screamed at the top of his lungs as he jumped onto their bed with shaving cream all over his hair, syrup all over his pajamas and a big wet spot on his boxer shorts.
Ryan and Luke finally realized what was going on and started cracking up at the scene that was in front of him. It was bad enough that Seth Cohen was trying to throw punches at them, but Seth Cohen trying throw punches at them in his condition was hysterical.
Kirsten finally reached the room that was filled with yelling, screaming and laughter.
"Oh my Gosh," she said in awe, "what the hell happened in here?" She yelled now angry, and not amused in the slightest bit.
"Ask them," Seth grumbled furiously as Kirsten pulled him off of Luke and Ryan who were still lying in bed, cracking up.
"RYAN! UP NOW!" Kirsten screamed, "you too Luke," she said in a less harsh tone.
Ryan listened to his mother's instructions, and Luke followed in his suit.
"Both of you downstairs, NOW!" Kirsten said giving Ryan a little nudge out the door.
"Seth, get cleaned up, I will handle them," She said shaking her head and shutting the door.
"I can not believe the two of you," she started as Sandy walked in the door with a morning paper and coffee.
"Well good morning sweetheart," Sandy said cheerfully as he dropped a kiss on her forehead, completely oblivious to the fury on her face, "boys, you're up early."
"Go ahead and tell your father why Ryan," Kirsten said sternly not skipping a beat.
Sandy shot a glance at Ryan and then back at Kirsten until Ryan finally spoke up.
"we played a few harmless tricks on Seth last night, and both Seth and Mom are over-reacting, a lot."
"Don't even give me over-reacting, Ryan Michael," Kirsten said beyond annoyed with her adoptive son.
"Ryan," Sandy finally said stepping in and taking the disciplinary role, "we are not on this trip for you and Luke to misbehave the whole time, ya hear me?"
Ryan nodded his head just to agree with his father.
"You're lucky were not home," Sandy said, "but you and Luke are going to apologize to Seth, clean up your room, and the two of you are sticking with us for the rest of the day."
"fine, whatever." Ryan said as he began to get up off the couch.
"Hey, watch your mouth, you don't tell me "whatever" young man, we can easily ground you when we get home."
"Sorry," Ryan mumbled as he ran up the stairs with Luke in toe.
As soon as they were safe in their bedroom with the door shut, they started laughing hysterically again and harassing Seth as he got out of the shower.
