Disclaimer: Nothing's changed...I'm still poor and own nothing. Don't even
bother to sue because you won't get much.
Rating: PG-13 because I still don't know how far I'm going to take this and it covers my...butt.
Summary: Wow...this chapter is crappy filler and these next few chapters are going to be so cliché O.C. it's not even funny, so bear with me...basically it's a Seth/Summer pairing with Anna loafing about in the works. Enjoy, my pretties, and REVIEW...please?
A Brand New Day (Chapter 5)
"Are you sure you want to do this, Coop?" Summer asked, sitting down on the edge of Marissa's bed to strap on her new black stiletto sandals. "You-know-who is going to be there, probably wasted, and he'll be all over you-know-who, who will most definitely be wasted," she added, with a grimace, "Ew! Just the thought makes me want to puke!"
With a small smile, she shook her head and continued applying her pale pink lipstick. "Wow...somehow I understood that."
She let out a soft chuckle. "I didn't, but I think you have spent more time with me than I have." Pausing, she contorted her face in confusion once more. "I don't think that made sense either. I'm having a very blonde day."
"It happens to the best of us," Marissa said with a smile and a glance back to her friend. Smacking her lips together to get the final effect in the mirror, she nodded in approval and turned around. "So how do I look?"
"Great, Coop," she replied quickly, concerned for her friend and unwilling to have her point fall victim to her own inability to focus on one topic at a time. Raising her eyes to Marissa's she was very solemn. "You don't have to do this, you know that right?"
With a sigh, she plopped down on the bed beside her friend. "Summer, I have to do it sometime. I can't give up every thing I know just because of Luke's mistake. It's time to move on."
Nodding, Summer replied, "I know. Just stick by me okay? And keep away from his PDA's and the margaritas. You scared the hell out of me in T.J. and I don't ever want to come that close to losing you again."
Overwhelmed by the sincerity that laced her friend's words, she wrapped her arms around the petite girl and smiled into her hair, blinking back tears. "I won't, Summer. Thanks for everything, okay? I don't think I tell you enough how much I appreciate your friendship."
With a sniffle and a brilliant grin, Summer pulled out of the hug and swiped away some stray eyeliner pools from beneath Marissa's eyes. "Ah, shut up, Coop. You're gonna make my make-up run...wait...did that make sense?"
Marissa's clear, radiant laughter rang out in the small bedroom as she rose to her feet and replied, "Let's get you out into the fresh air before you go completely nuts, okay, Sum? Having a shrink isn't all it's cracked up to be." Helping her friend to her feet, they left the apartment and made their way to Holly's party.
