Chapter 6

Hey, I know I haven't updated in a really LONG TIME, but it has been a bit hectic. I appreciate the reviews! Thanx!

"Hi Ryan."

Marissa stood in front of him. Seth, Summer, and the kids quickly left their vicinity and walked down the hall.

"It's been a long time."

"Yea, it has."

Ryan still thought Marissa looked absolutely stunning. The light that was shining from the window behind her made it seem like she had a halo on. Halo or no halo, Ryan thought that Marissa looked like an angel. His guardian angel, coming to save him from the years of anguish and horrible first dates.

He tried to speak, but when he opened his mouth no words came out.

Marissa was equally happy and excited to see him, but she hid it under her movie star façade. After all, Ryan was the one to break it off. She had tried to forget about him, but when she saw him step out of the elevator, she felt her legs turn to jelly and was 17 all over again.

A silence filled the air.

Marissa couldn't take it anymore. She grabbed Ryan and gave him a kiss. Of course, which turned out to be a major make out session.

They had been at it for a quite a while, when they noticed the two girls snickering and pointing. Just then, Ethan walked in the room and saw them with a sudden look of disgust.

"Ewwww."

Madison piped up, "Boys have cooties."

Emma nodded her head, in whole hearted agreement.

Marissa and Ryan just laughed.

"So, you want to do something?"

"Uh, I can't. I'm a celebrity. The paparrazzi will be all over me."

"Oh, that's right."

"Let's just go watch a movie."

They sauntered to the plasma tv. Plopping on the couch, Ryan took the remote. All three kids climbed over Ryan and Marissa and made themselves comfortable.

"I guess we have company." Marissa said, tickling Ethan.

It was very hard for all five of them to choose a movie. They had to consider the kids and Marissa wanted to watch a chick flick while Ryan wanted to watch some mystery movie. In the end, Marissa won the battle, and they started watchin the good old classic, "Gone With the Wind."

(Meanwhile)

Seth peeked his head out of the master bedroom suite's door. He saw the everyone else getting very confortable. He closed the door, and with a smile on his face he snuggled up to Summer on the bed.

"I guess we have some free time."

Summer was about to grab Seth and take him under the covers when she became reluctant.

"What's wrong?" A very confused Seth asked.

"What about the kids?" Summer mournfully sad. "What if they walk in?"

"Don't worry, they are watching a movie?"

"Really what movie?"

"Gone With the Wind."

"Oh my god, that's my favorite movie!"

Summer leapt out of bed and hurridly threw on some clothes. She took Seth's hand and dragged him out to the tv room. Seth and Summer sat down on the love seat.

After a hour, and several boxes of tissues, Seth and Ryan were dying of boredom. Ethan looked pretty bored to. Madison and Emma were totally engrossed with the movie. Every time they saw Scarlett in one of her dresses they oohed and asked Summer to get something like that for them.

Finally, the movie was over. Seth and Ryan sighed with relief when the credits came on. Summer hit him on the arm.

"Ow, what was that for?"

"That was for mocking my favorite movie." Summer replied. "So, Coop, tommorow is the big day."

"The big day?" Ryan had a questioning look on his face.

Marissa beamed, "I'm nominated for an Oscar!"

Ryan was stunned, "Wow that is great."

Marissa said, in a soft tone, "And you're gonna be my date."
