Chapter Six - Uh . COHEN . I had 'secretly' crept over to the pool house as I saw Marissa enter. I was amazed to see her there, I would have thought after what happened today she wouldn't have come out of her room for days. Well of course there was Ryan also. Everything has changed in Newport since he has arrived. Before, I was just Seth Cohen, the guy no one knew about, but now. I'm Seth Cohen, the dork that follows Ryan Atwood around everywhere. But, that's a different story. Anyway, back to what I saw. I walked around to the other side of the pool house where I knew the blind was a bit bent and I would be able to see through as much as I needed. When I got there, I saw Ryan with his arm around Marissa and immediately my mind began to think.. You know.. Yeah! I backed away then, well because I didn't want to think about something like that right then. I headed inside and up to my room, wondering still why she was there. "I'll just ask Ryan later" I said aloud. "Yeah, that's what I'll do" I walked over to the window to see if I could catch a glimpse of Marissa leaving, to see if they kiss or not. I knew I could just ask Ryan later, but I needed to know now. It was killing me! I didn't see anything, so I thought she had already left, but just to make sure I grabbed a chair and a comic book and sat by the window, glancing up every minute or so to check if she was coming out. ".. Come on already!! I'm getting bored!" I yelled out the window. Right then I saw the pool house door open, and Ryan stick his head out. He almost immediately looked up to my room, which didn't give me much time to duck out of the way, so instead I waved and held my comic book up a little higher for a second then acted as if I was reading it again. I heard Ryan as he called up a sarcastic "Yeah Right" and shut the door once again. "Okay, so they aren't doing. yeah. cause he wouldn't of been able to open the door that quickly. unless." I would have finished, but as I began to I heard a voice, a voice I longed to hear. "Uh. COHEN." It was Summer. In my room. Why? "Um, yeah, Summer, Hi?" I blurted out. "Do you know where Coop is? I went to her house to see if she was alright, and her dad couldn't find her, and calling her cell didn't help me much cause she turned it off, and you're her uh. friend. so I thought maybe you'd know where she was" She talked annoyingly fast, and as I tried to catch everything she said, which left me completely lost, I noticed her disgusted look toward the book in my hand. She shook it off and waited for my answer. "Okay. Marissa. not home. you think I kn- -." "Yeah. do you?" She sounded desperate to know where she was, so I pointed down to the pool house, and offered to take her down there. "Eww. I mean. whatever..." 'She sounds so pleased' I thought as I led the way down.
