Marissa noticed Seth on the beach by himself. She walked over to him, and just sat down next to him. They didn't say a word right away just sat there in silence as they enjoyed the moment. They hadn't spent a lot of time together at the party. They both wouldn't say it, but they needed to figure out what they felt towards each other. Something had changed between them, and knew they had to figure it out.
"Thought you would have been skating all night," Marissa finally said as she looked at Seth. In her eyes he was no longer the boy next door, but somewhere over the past three years he had become her best friend. Now as she sat here with him, she knew that it had moved to the next level. Somewhere over the past few months she had fallen for him, and it scared her more than anything.
"I did for a little while," he said as he looked from the water to her. Once again their eyes met and they couldn't fit the urge that had taken over them. Their eyes locked on each other, and an energy of passion filled into both of them. There was no words spoken, but the intense look in both of their eyes spoke to both of them.
"Seth," Marissa said in a soft whisper. It could barely be heard between the two of them.
"Marissa," Seth said back to her in the same tone. Their eyes never moved from each other. He moved in closer to her just so that their face barely touched each other. "I'm not sure what is happening, but I think I like it," he said with a small smile.
She just smiled back at him, before she allowed herself to give into this passion between the two of them. Neither one could handle the intense emotions felt, so for the first time they both gave in. They felt their bodies melt into each other as they kiss grew from a small little peck to and kiss filled of intense passion.
After what seem to be forever they pulled away from each other, "Wow," Seth said with one of this grins like 'I can believe I just got to kiss this girl.'
"I know," Marissa said. She tried to get more words out of her mouth, but she couldn't, no matter how hard she tried.
They sat again in silence as they tried to figure out what had just happen between the two of them. They had crossed over the friendship line, but knew they didn't know where they were supposed to go. "What just happen between us?" Seth asked.
"I'm not really sure," Marissa said before she paused for a minute to collect her thoughts. "All I know is that for the past few months I have felt something towards you, but I was never able to figure it out. Then tonight when we were looking at the painting together I realized what it was that was happening. Somehow our feelings of friendship turned into more without either one of us realizing it."
Seth moved his head a bit more to look at her eyes to make sure that he saw some kind of spark. "I have to agree with you. I've been feeling these feeling for you for some time now, but it's just I didn't know what they were, or how you would feel about it."
Marissa felt herself relax as she talked. "What do you think my feeling for you are now?" She asked before she leaned in and gave him another kiss as she allowed herself to give into all the pent up passion they had built up together.
"I think this is the start of something great," Seth said before as he pulled away for a second before he went back to the kiss.

Seth walked Marissa to her front door. He didn't want to let go of her, but knew that he had to. They stopped just on the front steps. "I had a great night," Marissa said.
"Cooper, did you really think you would have anything, but a great time tonight," Seth said with a small little laugh.
Marissa just laughed a bit at Seth and said, "I knew I would, because I always have a great time with you, Cohen."
They moved closer to each other without a word spoken between the two of them. Seth was the first one to give in to being so close to her. He pulled her in a little closer and allowed his lips to explore her. There was no doubt in either mind that what there felt was something great, and what Seth had said early about this being the start of something great they both knew it was true.
"I don't want you to leave," Marissa said.
"Okay," Seth said with a smile. "I've spent many nights over here why would tonight be any different?" he asked with a little grin.
"Because we wouldn't be sleeping," she said as she wrapped her arms around her neck.
"True," he said with a small grin. "But you know Cooper we're going to have to let go of each other at some point tonight."
She didn't say anything just kind of stood there as she held on to him for as long as she could. Neither one was ready to face the fact that they had to go tonight. It wasn't until Marissa yawn a little, that they knew they should leave for the night.
"How about I pick you up for a date tomorrow afternoon?" Seth said.
"I would like that," Marissa said
"Okay, but we have to go to our separate house for the night, and I promise I will be over at 11 tomorrow," Seth said before he gave her a quick little kiss.
"Night Cohen," she said as she let her arms let go of him
"Night Cooper," he said as he walked away from the house. He got halfway down the driveway when he turned back and looked at her. He wanted to run back, but they just keep their distance. He knew he would see her in a few hours.
