Chapter 6
A/N: Hey again! I missed not having O.C. on yesterday.. L Oh well, that's what fics are for, so enjoy!
"And then, Summer splashed me! It wasn't a 'go away and leave me alone splash', it was an 'lets have a splash war splash!" I giddily said.
"I find it odd that you differentiate between splashes," Ryan said.
"Dude, you're totally ruining the moment," I said while giving him a shove.
Ryan put his hands up in mock surrender, "I'm sorry Seth, please continue."
"And after we got off the beach, she dried her hair with her towel. Then, she asked me if she could have my towel to cover up in. And, get this, she gave it back to me!" I said.
"Seth, you need help," Ryan said dryly.
"Hey, Seth!" Ryan yelled.
"You called," I asked, walking out of my room.
"Marissa called and asked if I would go to Holly's party with her tonight. Are you up for it?" he asked.
"Well, let's see. This is Holly's party. And of course, there will be a lot of Marissa's friends, so most likely Summer will be there… Of course I'm in!" I told him.
"Great."
"Let's just try not to get into any fights tonight, okay," I said, smirking.
"No problem," Ryan said.
As we walked in, the party seemed like any other Holly party. There was loud music, girls dancing in bikinis, and beer everywhere.
"Let's dance, Ryan," Marissa said, pulling him away.
Ryan hesitated, "What about Seth?"
Marissa's eyes pleaded with me.
"That's okay," I said, waving it off, "I'm sure I'll find something to entertain me."
Marissa pulled Ryan away, as he gave me a helpless look.
At least someone wants him…
I sighed and took a sip of my beer. I've never really liked beer, but I guess it gave me something to do while I searched for Summer.
I plopped down on a couch, in between a couple making out and a guy by himself.
"Hey man," He said, "Do you know that girl dancing over there?"
I looked in the direction he pointed. Medium height, long brown hair, tan. Summer.
"I sure do, why do u ask?" I asked, curious.
"She's really hot, is she taken?" the guy asked.
"Well, actually…" I began.
"Never mind. I don't care," he said, getting up.
"Hey, wait just a second, she is taken," I spoke up.
"Whatever," he mumbled.
What nerve! He had absolutely no respect whatsoever. The idiot was right behind Summer. He started moving with her, a little too close might I add. Summer turned around and gave him a smile. He wrapped his arms around her and they started to grind.
Gross.
I debated going over and trying to stop the madness, but decided against it. Summer would be mad. And I guess if she was having fun with that guy, who was I to spoil it?
The next few hours, I talked to a few people, but mostly hung out solo.
Ryan and Marissa danced for most of the night, but about fifteen minutes ago, they went outside.
The party seemed to be dying down a bit, and people were leaving. I was a bit tipsy from the two beers I had, but I'm sure I was a lot better off than most of the people.
"Sethy."
Wait, who do I know that calls me Sethy. No one.
"Summer, hi," I said nonchalant.
"I want you to meet someone," she stated, apparently very drunk, "Seth, this is Aaron, Aaron, this is Seth."
What do you know, it was Mr. 'I don't care if she has a boyfriend'.
"Hey man, have we met," He asked, drunk also.
"I don't think so," I said, snidely. I turned to Summer and my expression softened, "Summer, how are you going to get home?"
"Well," she giggled a little too hard and started to fall and I caught her in my arms, "Thanks Sethy. I think Aaron is going to drive me home, is that right, baby?"
Aaron nodded. No way was Summer driving home with Drunko.
"I don't think that's a good idea. I'll drive you," I offered.
She pondered this for a moment, "Well, what about Aaron? Can he come?"
I gritted my teeth, "Sure, he can come. Let's go."
Luckily Ryan and Marissa drove separately. (A/N, how convenient, I know)
"Wait, let me get another drink before we leave," Summer said.
I grabbed her hand and said, "I think you've had enough," and we walked out.
I sat in the front, driving of course, and Summer and Aaron were in the back.
I was disgusted. Summer and Aaron were practically making out in the back seat of my car until we got to Aaron's house.
"Thanks for the ride, Sean," he said while climbing out, "See you later, babe."
"Its Seth, I said before slamming the door in his face.
Summer climbed out of the car into the front seat.
"So, I guess we should be getting you home, huh?" I asked.
"Yeah, sure."
The ride to her house was spent in silence. I pulled into her driveway and looked over.
She was leaning against the door, breathing heavily. I lightly tapped her, no response. A little harder this time, nothing.
"Summer."
She lazily opened her eyes, "Hi there," she said.
"We're at your house. Come on, I'll walk you in."
She stirred a little and groaned.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"I don't have my key. Damn, I forgot my parents were gone."
There was a moment of silence, so I spoke up, "Well, I guess you could crash at my place tonight, if you want."
She smiled at me and yawned, "That would be great."
As soon as we pulled out of her driveway, she was asleep.
I opened the door quietly, trying not to disturb anyone. Where would Summer sleep?
I decided to let her stay in my room, and I would bunk with Ryan for the night.
I placed her softly in my bed. Looking down at her I whispered, "Good night, Summer."
I bent down and gave her a chase kiss on the lips.
As I was walking out, I heard her mumble, almost inaudible, "Goodnight, Seth."
