Hey, sorry for another late update. But school is out in like a day for me, which means I'ma gonna be homework and FINAL free for like THREE WHOLE MONTHS!! Which also means that I will have time to update more, and start my two other stories that I've been wanting to start. Yeah, but then it's back to the old Jr high for two years! Oh well, whattia gonna do? Ok, on with the story. . .
Disclaimer: If I owned the OC, I'd be the one kissing Ben Mckenzie, and unless I'm Mischa Barton, I don't own the OC.
Chapter 6: Dancing On Ocean Avenue
Ryan looked at the clock. Damn, only twelve thirty. He had been playing those silly little mind games with Seth for almost two hours now, and he still had an hour and a half to go. He was all ready, and he had the perfect thing planned. A little walk on the beach, a little lunch at the pier, and maybe they would come back here afterwards so they could 'talk'.
Twelve forty-five. Ok, getting closer. Now there was only an hour and fifteen minutes away. He decided that even though it was early, he could go to Marissa's and wait for her there, even if she wasn't ready. He could still be with her, right?
"Dude, answer me." Seth demanded.
"Oh, sorry. What did you say again?" Ryan asked, instantly snapping out of his daze.
"I said, which do you like better, the Jew Fro or the Afro?" He said, running his hands through his curly brown hair.
"Psh, I dunno Seth. How do you even know what an Afro is?" Ryan answered dumbfounded.
"Look, just because there aren't any african-americans around here dosen't mean I don't know what they are."
"You mean who."
"Right. So what'll it be my man, the Jew or the Af?
"Hey, listen, I'm gonna go man. Say hi to Summer for me. . .or good luck." Ryan said as he headed out the door.
"You never answered me!" Seth yelled back.
"Ask your dad. . ."
"That's like talking to a tree. . .a tree with very bushy eyebrows."
Ryan ignored Seth's last comment and opened the door to his Range Rover. Ryan was very glad that Marissa had gotten to stay with her dad, because it was a lot closer then the house on haunted hill. As he drove the very familliar road to Marissa's, he went over what today's plans were once more in his head. It seemed he had planned everything out perfect. He couldn't wait to see her again.
After what seemed like forever, he once again pulled up to the tall apartment complex. He walked up many flights of stairs, as there was no elevator, and once he reached the last one, he was very glad that Marissa lived on the 14th floor instead of the 20th. His legs were aching, and really the only thing that kept him going was knowing that he would see Marissa in a short matter of seconds.
He knocked on the door to find a smiling Jimmy on the other side.
"She's in her room, but she has the music blasting, so you might just have to go in." Jimmy said loudly, over the music.
Ryan headed up to Marissa's room to find the door closed. He was quite amazed, becuause the music was so loud that he could hear it very clearly. He smiled as he realized what song she was listening to. It was Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard. One of his favorite songs, it reminded him so much of him and Marissa.
There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
He quietly opened the door to Marissa's Paris themed room. He stayed quiet so she didn't hear him come in, but he really didn't have to seing the music was so loud you couldn't hear yourself think. Ryan silentley laughed to himself. She was dancing wildly to the music, throwing her hands up in the air and swinging her hair back and forth. She ran around the room with a hairbrush in her hand, using it as a microphone, and loudly sang the words into it.
There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
She walked up to the mirror, hairbrush still in hand, and wagged her eyebrows at her reflection. She noticed Ryan in the background smiling at her and quickly turned around. She was embarassed that she saw him, but still very happy he was here. She quickly regained her self confidence and slowly strided towards him, still singing.
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
"Hey!" Marissa screamed over the music, beaming.
"Hey." He laughed back.
"I was wondering when you were gonna be here!"
"Hey! I'm early!"
"Well, whatever. You're here, I'm ready, so lets go!!"
"Ok! But you should probably turn that down. . .?" Ryan said as he walked over to the stereo.
"Yeah, well it looks like you got that covered." She said as he walked over to her and kissed her softly.
Marissa smiled as Ryan wrapped his arm around her waist, and they walked out together. The last part of her favorite song drownded in her ears. The part of it that reminded her of them the most. She smiled once more, and they walked to the beach.
I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehow
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
There's chapter 6! I hope you enjoyed it! I'll try to update soon, don't worry, there will be some drama in the next chapter. Now, review, or consequences will arise! LOL! Luv ya,
Margo
