A few days later Kirsten was nervously pacing the kitchen, looking out the
window every five seconds. "This isn't leading up to another talk is it?
'Cuz I'm really not in the mood!" Seth grumpily grabbed a bagel and started
to butter it. Kirsten just rolled her eyes at him. Weird, normally she
would have yelled at me for that. "Whatever, I'm gone!" and he headed to
the door as Kirsten caught sight of the red convertible. "Sure honey,
whatever you want." Seth froze, something was up and he didn't like it all.
With a shrug he grabbed his skateboard and opened the door.
A smiling Schyler was their to greet him, "Hey Seth, long time no see cousin!" she dropped her bags expecting a hug. But instead silence was the only thing between them. It all made sense to Seth now, they were trying to fix him with her. Well he wouldn't make it easier for them and walked away with a painful look on his face. The one person that I can't fight away, damn it! They know my weaknesses; well it's time to play dirty then! And he skated down the driveway and into the city.
"That bad eh? I had no idea." Schyler shrugged it off and looked at her aunt. "That would be considered a good day." Kirsten lingered at the spot where Seth had been only seconds before, then turned to help Schyler with her bags."
"Schyler! My God how you've grown. Missed you around here, good to see you though!" Sandy picked up his only niece and hugged her tight; they shared a special connection from when Schyler spent a year at the Cohen's while her parents settled their divorce. That was right before her father made them move. "Oh I've missed all of you too, but I hear there is a new one around?" before she had finished speaking Ryan walked in from the pool house. "Can I borrow the-" but he stopped in mid sentence once he saw Schyler. "Ryan this is Schyler, Schyler...Ryan." Sandy introduced them and poured himself a glass of water. "This is our favourite niece, so treat her good" Schyler rolled her eyes, "I'm your only niece, but good try! Any ways, nice to meet you Ryan, but I've got to unpack. I take it my room is still their?" Sandy nodded and Schyler gave him a hug and the Ryan, who was a little surprised by it at first.
"Is she always that happy?" Ryan looked a bit confused. "No, her parent's divorced a while back and she was never happy, she just shrugged it off and smiled for everyone else's case. If she's ever that happy we know something is wrong, in this case her cousin didn't even say hi. She cares a lot about family, and now that your part of hers she'll do anything for you." Sandy hit him on the back before leaving to help Schyler unpack.
