Second Chances
Seth Cohen sat stood near his closet, listening to his records while he was trying to figure out what to wear. He heard a knock at his door and yelled, "Come in" Ryan walked over to Seth and slapped his shoulder with what appeared to be a couple of tickets. "What are you doing?" Ryan asked Seth who was looking himself up and down in the mirror. "Trying to decide whether to go with a shirt or sweater, you see if I'm too hot, than my fro is gonna go Screech on me, but if I'm very unpleasant when I'm cold." Ryan stared at Seth blankly, "Yeah, well...hurry up, I just got us two tickets to go to a hockey game, it starts at 7:30 so you gotta hurry." Seth looked up at Ryan, "what like a date?" "Yeah, exactly." Ryan replied sarcastically. "Sorry man, I thought you knew that I'm into girls. Why don't you go ahead and give Luke's dad a call. Actually, I personally think you may even have a decent shot with Luke. Seriously though, I have plans with Summer tonight." "You? Plans on a Friday night?! Since when?" "Oh since I got me a lady friend." Seth replied slyly. "Great," Ryan replied, "I actually would have taken Luke, except that he's gone now." "Well man, its not like you don't have any ladies that you could bring" "Yeah, who? Theresa?? The girl that is pregnant, maybe with my child? Or Marissa, who I don't even know if I'm dating anymore since she found out about Theresa?" "Wait," Seth stopped Ryan from his ranting, "You don't even know if you guys are still together?" "Nah, I haven't talked to her since we got back from Vegas. And Theresa and I have been avoiding each other, at least until she knows for sure that shes....well..." "Yeah, I got it. Well look man, you really do have a lot on your mind, so I guess if you want, I can cancel with Summer and we can have some Seth- Ryan time." "No, thanks, but you have fun with Summer, but I guess I really should go talk to Marissa...or Theresa...either one." "You sure?" Seth asked, not wanting to leave Ryan depressed. "Yeah, but thanks man." "Alright, I'll catch you later." Seth ran out of his room, not wanting to be late for Summer. Ryan plopped down on Seth's bed, and rubbed his face with his hands. Just then he heard a car outside and lifted his head to see out the window. Marissa was getting out of her dad's car and going into her mom's house. Ryan watched Marissa fumble for her key, how could he have let this situation get so screwed up? He knew that he wanted to be with Marissa, but this whole thing with Theresa wasn't the sort of thing you could ignore. He let out a deep sigh and headed next door to talk to Marissa.
