Chapter 11 Dinner

Summer got back to the Cohen's around 8:30 and immediately she crashed on the couch.

"Summer? Is that you?"

Summer nodded not noticing the fact they whoever 'they' were couldn't see her.

"Summer?" they called again and slowly Summer got off the couch and looked around a little dizzy.

"What?" she rasped out holding a hand to her head.

"Where are you?" they asked again.

"Living room." she yelled laying back down.

"Hey." she looked over to the person and smiled. She was really tired not to be able to tell who had been talking to her.

"Ryan." she stated turning back around and closing her eyes. "What's up?" she asked yawning.

"Your tired." he stated looming over her.

"Yeah, I've been working." she said snuggling into the couch.

"Uh...did you forget something?" Summer opened one eye and looked at him thinking about all the things she had to do today.

"Uh...no?"

"Uh...yes! We are telling the Cohen's tonight, remember?"

Summer moaned slightly and turned over. "Where are they?"

"Coming home soon. Please, go get cleaned up."

Summer moaned curling into a ball on the couch and mourning over her swollen feet. "What time?"

"We are going out to dinner with them."

"Isn't it a little late?"

"Late dinner. They work late now."

"Just now? Haven't they always worked late?"

"Well they've bee working more. They seem to be, like, avoiding their issues or something. I don't know." Ryan said shrugging and nudging her. "They'll be home soon though."

"Ryan! I'm tired! Please, can we do it another time?"

"You wanna do it another time? Weren't you just complaining that we needed to tell them?"

"Uh...well. I had a long day." Summer said feeling exhausted.

"I know, baby, but...they're expecting something. Besides aren't you a few months along? Won't you start getting, like...big?" Ryan said tip toeing over the use of the F-word.

Summer turned to glare at Ryan then got up, "let me shower, what time do we have to be at the restaurant?"

"9:30." Ryan said after her.

Summer walked outside to the pool house and into the bathroom for a nice long shower. This was going to be one helluva long dinner, as if her day hadn't been stressful enough.


"Breathe. Just Breathe." Ryan told her as they stepped out of the car.

"Breathe? Is that all you have to say? We are about to tell your parents that you got me impregnated! If they react like my father reacted we are poor Ryan, poor!" Summer yelled waving her hands around.

Ryan sighed, "we'll deal."

"Do you really wanna give up your whole life just because I got pregnant?" Summer asked crossing her arms across her chest in a defensive pose.

"They won't freak out."

"Ryan, they're parents, when their underage son tells them they got a girl pregnant they are bound to freak out." Summer said looking anywhere but him.

"Summer, we are telling them regardless of anything. They deserve to know."

Summer rolled her eyes and followed him into the restaurant. After waiting a few minutes the host took them to their seats were Sandy, Kirsten, and Seth were already sitting.

Seth smiled smugly at the couple as they sat down and Summer felt her stomach flip-flop.

"Hello Summer, Ryan." Kirsten said taking a stip of her wine.

"Hey." Ryan said sitting next to Sandy and Summer.

"So, why are we all here?" Seth asked smiling sweetly at the two as they glared back at him.

"No tell us later we want to order now." Kirsten said waving them off and signaling the water over to them.

"I would like a steak, medium rare." Sandy said handing his menu over.

"A cup of your clam chowder and a caesar salad." Kirsten said.

Summer scanned the menu as everyone ordered then finally gave the waiter her dinner. Silence followed as the waiter left the table.

"So, Ryan why are we all here?"

"I'm pregnant." Summer blurted sending the table into more silence.

"I'm sorry, what?" Kirsten said leaning in. "It sounded like you said you were...pregnant."

"I am, I'm almost 5 months." Sandy and Kirsten looked at her.

"But you haven't even gained any weight." Sandy said looking at her.

"Actually I gained 10 pound and went up 2 sizes in jeans." Summer said taking a sip of her water.

"5 months really?" Seth asked looking at her.

"You look exactly the same...wait, you've stopped wearing tight clothes. Hm...I guess that's a give away." Seth mused.

"Seth, be quiet." Summer said wrapping her arms around her stomach.

"Did you go to the doctors? And what does your father think of this?"

"He kicked me out and yes I went to the doctors." Summer said looking around the restaurant.

"Well...what...what are we going to do?" Kirsten said looking at the two of them then at Sandy.

"We?" Summer asked surprised.

"Yes we, you two are going through this wither you like it or not." Kirsten said looking at them.

"And we will help you." Sandy added smiling at them.

Summer was so surprised that they were willing to help she felt tears at the corners of her eyes. "Really? You're going to help us?" Summer asked taking a napkin to clean the tears.

"And we will talk to your dad, too." Sandy added looking at Kirsten.

"We'll figure something out." Kirsten said smiling at them.

"This must be a very hard time for you."

"It is, Summer even got a job." Seth said as everyone turned to him.

"You got a job?" Sandy asked laughing.

"I thought it could help." Summer said shrugging. "I thought—"

"doesn't matter we are going to talk to your dad."

"Ok." Summer said taking a drink of water. She felt fine about telling someone for the first time in a very long time. She was even a little happy they were going to have the baby.

"Ok." she said again smiling.


"It's weird that they are willing to help, you know?" Summer said laying her head on Ryan's chest.

"Not really, it's what they do, they help." Ryan muttered playing with her hair.

"Do you think they'll kick me out of the pool house?"

"probably." Ryan said smirking when Summer hit him.

"But I like it here." Summer said quietly.

"They'll probably try and talk to your dad, if that doesn't work you'll get get a room in the big house."

"the big house?"

"yep." Ryan said closing his eyes.

"thank you."

"for what?"

"helping me through this."

"I can't believe you are almost 5 months." He said looking down at her stomach. You could see a small bump but it seemed abnormal for the bump to me so small when she was suppose to be so pregnant, at 5 months.

"I know, I feel like I'm not suppose to be this small."

"you aren't. You're suppose to be huge."

"I don't wanna be huge."

"Maybe we should go to the doctor to check it out."

"Ryan, no."

"why not? It's abnormal for you to be this little."

"No."

"Tomorrow we'll go."

"No!"

"Tomorrow after school."

"No!"

"yes, and it's final."

Summer glared at him and rolled over away from him. Closing her eyes to his protests she fell asleep.
