Chapter 7

Once Summer had moved her belongings to the poolhouse and said goodbye to her father it was time for lunch. Kirsten had ordered Chinese for everyone and they sat down to eat. Summer was seated on the opposite side of Seth. She was worried because Seth hadn't said very much since she had arrived. Was he angry she moved in? It's not like she asked for it. Just than Sandy interrupted her thoughts.

"So Summer if there is anything you need please just tell us. Kirsten, I or one of the boys will get it for you."

"Thank you but I'm fine. I just wanted to say thank you for having me and I'll try not to get in anyone's way." Summer said.

"Nonsense. You're part of the family now. So feel free to do whatever." he replied.

Seth and Summer looked at each other frowning. Family. Eww! Summer thought. Ryan and Marissa started laughing.

"Dad, please do not ever say that again. I might puke." Seth said.

"Let's just finish eating." Kirsten said.

After they finished lunch Summer cleaned up the kitchen with Seth's help. Seth was still being quiet and Summer had enough. She turned around and pushed Seth against the counter.

"What the hell is your problem Cohen?"

Seth looked down at her confused.

"What?" he asked.

"You haven't said a fucking word to me since I got here. You think I like this, huh? I feel like some damn reject who couldn't keep her family. I've been thrown on your family and I don't like it. The least you could is try to make me feel comfortable. Sorry for ruining on your perfect family." she said trying to catch her breath.

She turned to walk away when Seth grabbed her hand.

"I'm sorry. I know this is hard on you. I've been a jerk. I just can't believe you live here now. What does this mean for us? he asked pointing between them.

"How the hell am I suppose to know? Summer said crossing her arms and looking down at the ground. "I don't see why it has to change. We will just have to be careful."

"You are so awesome." Seth said smiling from ear to ear.

He reached for her but she pulled away.

"Careful." she said laughing when Seth started tickling her.

Sandy and Kirsten walked in the kitchen and they broke apart.

"Seth come and help me bring the thing in the house." Sandy said.

"What thing?"

"Seth come on. Now." his father said.

He followed his dad leaving Summer alone in the kitchen with Kirsten. Summer was a little scared of what Kirsten thought of her.

"So Summer we are thrilled to have you staying with us." Kirsten said.

"Thank you. I'm happy to be staying here." Summer replied.

"I know how Seth has felt about you over the years and I want you to know that if you two choose to date Sandy and I think it is ok but that's where we draw the line."

Summer was mortified.

"Oh Mrs. Cohen, I don't think you have to worry. Seth and I used to have feelings for each other but we are just friends now."

"Ok but I see the way you two look at each other. Reminds me of Sandy and I when we were younger." Kirsten said smiling to herself.

"Eww! No offense Mrs. Cohen." Summer said. "I think I might take a nap. It's been a long day."

"Sure sweetie. I'll wake you for dinner."

Summer went to the poolhouse and laid on the bed. She was going to have to buy new sheets. Lord knows how much sex Ryan and Marissa had on them. Maybe she should stop the relationship with Seth but she figured they would end up messing around anyways. They always did. Oh well, he would probably just end up driving her crazy after living with him and seeing him constantly. Summer fall asleep reassuring herself that.

Seth followed his dad upstairs to his room where his father shut the door behind them.

"Seth sit down. We need to talk."

"Oh god! Please not that talk." Seth said sitting on the bed.

"I think you might be too old for that talk but we do need to lay some ground rules down now that Summer lives here." Sandy said pacing the floor.

"Dad, Summer and I are just friends." Seth replied.

"Please son I know the way you feel about Summer. You've liked her forever and you two were almost a couple. We just want you and Summer to know that you can date why she is with us but we don't want any funny business."

"Dad please stop. I'm begging you."

"I just wanted to tell you that. If nothing is going on that's great. Are you ok with Summer staying here?" Sandy asked

"Yeah but what is up with her dad just leaving her? Especially after what her mom did." Seth asked.

"He came to me about a month ago and asked us. We went to college together and he helped me out back then and he asked for a favor. Besides Summer's a great girl and we knew she would want to spend her senior year here with friends." Sandy replied.

"That's awesome."

"Well kid I'm going surfing. Wanna come?"

"No thanks." Seth answered.

After his father left Seth went to take a shower. While in the shower Seth started thinking about what had happened. Summer was going to be here everyday in his house. And to top it off they were having sex! Great sex! What had he done to get so lucky? So they weren't a couple but maybe Summer would come around one day but he wasn't going to push his luck.

Ryan and Marissa were in the family room when Seth came downstairs later in the day.

"Where have you been all day?" Ryan asked.

"Upstairs." Seth said sitting down in the chair opposite Ryan.

"So what do you think of Summer moving in?" Marissa asked.

"Whatever. I just feel bad for here. Where is she anyway?" Seth asked.

"She's in the kitchen making dinner." Ryan replied.

"No way! Summer cooking?"

"Actually, I"m a very good cook." Summer replied from the doorway.

"She is." Marissa said in her friends defense.

"Just yell when it's ready sugar." Seth said reclining in the chair.

"Uh huh Cohen. You get to help. Your mom said so. Come on." Summer said smiling at him and walking back into the kitchen.

Seth followed close behind watching the way her hips swayed back and forth in the apron.

"I sorta like you being all domestic. Kinda turns me on." Seth said grabbing her from behind and kissing her neck. Summer put her neck to the side and let Seth continue.

Who would have ever thought that he could kiss like this or make her feel this good. The boy was definitely gifted. Summer turned around and kissed Seth. She wrapped her arms around his neck and backed them up against the refrigerator. They continued to kiss and grope each other and it was getting out of control. Summer put a hand to Seth's chest and pushed away.

"We have got to be more careful Cohen. Your mom already had a talk with me today about us. I told her we are just friends."

"My dad had the same talk with me. I told him the exact same thing." Seth replied.

"From now on we only do this type of thing in private. Not even in front of Coop and Ryan. Ok?"

"Yeah. My parents are already acting weird."

"Ok. Help me peel the potatoes." Summer said.

That night after dinner Sandy and Kirsten went over to her father's house and the four teenagers stayed in to watch a movie. The boys had picked "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."

"I hate this movie!" Marissa said putting her head in Ryan's chest. Ryan starting rubbing her hair.

"It'll be over soon." he promised to her.

They were sitting on the floor in front of the coffee table. Seth and Summer were on the couch with a blanket over them.

This movie bored the hell out of Summer. She had seen it a million times and it didn't scare her at all. Well maybe a little when she was by herself. Marissa was such a wimp. To be honest, she couldn't pay attention when Cohen kept getting closer to her and he smelled so damn good.

Seth was getting pretty bored himself. He wished Ryan and Marissa would just go screw already so he could be alone with Summer. She was driving him crazy and he couldn't help but keep getting closer and closer to her. When their legs were finally touching Seth put his hand on her thigh. He hoped she didn't knock the shit out of him but she didn't. She put her hand over his and guided it to the tops of her shorts. Seth's breathe was warm on her ear and she laid back on his chest.

"Can I?" Seth whispered in her ear.

Summer nodded her head yes and put her legs up on the couch. Seth placed his hand inside her panties and felt his way around. She was already wet for him. She moaned softly and pushed his hand deeper. She started moving her hips back and forth aggressively. Seth stopped.

"If you think you can do a better job go ahead." he whispered.

"Put your hand back there now before I brake it!" Summer said.

"Say the magic word." he said licking the tip of her ear and sucking a bit.

"Go to hell!" she spate out.

"Come on baby. I know you can." Seth said moving his fingers in and out of her.

Summer started breathing harder and tightened her thighs muscles around his hand.

"Say it!" he said.

"Please." she said finally and Seth starting moving his fingers faster.

Seth was very good at this Summer thought to herself. He must have done this with Anna. Oh God! Stop thinking about them together! EWW! Just then Seth did something to her that ceased all thoughts. She wanted to scream out. He was whispering something to her but she couldn't hear. There was so much pressure and when Seth took two of his fingers and squeezed the right spot it was too much. She grabbed his hand and went over the edge. A few minutes later after coming back down from her high Summer looked at Seth who was smirking at her.

"You're welcome sugar." he said kissing her lips.

"Shut up." Summer replied.

"Face it. I am the master and you are my little toy."

"Gross! You are so immature." Summer said moving back to the other end of the couch.

"You love me." he said smiling.

Summer looked at him with his messed up curly hair and dimpled grin and her heart melt. She wished she could love him but she would never let him hurt her again.

"Yeah. You wish." she replied sarcastically.
