Thanks for all the reviews! I know that a lot of you have been complaining about how its hard to read, I'll try to fix it, but it keeps changing to paragraph form. Sorry! P.S. I don't own any of the characters.....(yet).

Marissa looked back at Ryan blankly. "Did you just ask me to go to a hockey game with you?"
Ryan looked slightly embarrassed, "Well, yeah, you see...I had an extra ticket and I just figured that it would be cool if you could go." Marissa looked away, tears starting to fill her eyes, "I'm guessing this is your not-so-subtle way of telling me that you just want to be friends? I mean, a hockey game?! That's not exactly the kind of place where we used to go. Fine Ryan, we can be friends, and you can go back to Theresa and have a family. But, to answer your question, no, I do not want to go to a hockey game with you. I can't believe-"
Ryan quickly grabbed Marissa towards him and kissed her. Their faces stood close together even after their lips had separated. Ryan breathed heavily and said, "No Marissa, I don't just want to be your friend. I want to be your boyfriend again."
Marissa smiled and kissed Ryan again, "well...way to stop me before I made a fool of myself. Oh, and there is still no chance that I'm going to a hockey game with you. Hockey sucks." Ryan smiled and kissed Marissa once more, "Fine then, if that's what you want, I guess we can just go over to my place...where we'll be lonely, since nobody's home." Marissa grinned and led the way to the Cohen house.

"I don't care how you played at camp when you were eleven Summer, there is no such thing as 'dynamite' in 'Rock, Paper, Scissors'. It tells you the possible options right in the title! I won fair and square, so we get to play my favorite PS2 game."
"But Cohen," Summer complained, but she stopped in her tracks and gawked when she looked ahead and saw Ryan and Marissa making out on the couch.
"Wow," Seth started, "I know that I'm the brains of all our operations, but I never thought that our plan was going to work this fast Summer!"
Marissa and Ryan broke apart a bit embarrassed of being caught. Ryan pulled his knees up to his chest and said, "I thought you said you were gonna be out Seth."
Seth was grinning and said, "Yeah, well we decided to come home and try to get you guys back together, but I don't think you need much help. But since were here, Summer here is going to attempt to beat me in my favorite PS2 game. You should stay and watch, it could be comical, she may start to cry."
Summer hit Seth in the stomach and sqealed, "so Coop, are you guys officially back together?!"
Marissa blushed and glanced at Ryan who shrugged, "Yeah, I guess we are" she confirmed.
"All right!" Seth exclaimed, "Finally operation Maryether is back on!" The other three stared at Seth blankly. "Oh come on!" Seth exclaimed, "Marissa-Ryan-Seth-Summer. Geez guys, I thought you would have picked up on that!" Simultaneously, the three turned their heads away from Seth.

"Anyways," started Ryan, "so Summer, you're going to try to beat Seth at the Ninja game?!" Summer shook her head, "No, Seth said his favorite game, which is Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4."

Now it was Ryan's turn to shake his head, "No, Seth thinks that Pro Skater has the best graphics, but he likes the Ninja game better."

"Are you saying that you know Seth better than me?!" Summer asked Ryan.

"Hey, I never said that! All I'm saying is that the Ninja game is Seth's favorite game."

Seth and Marissa turned their heads back and forth from Ryan and Summer both extremely amused by the confrontation. Suddenly, Marissa said, "Hey I have a better idea than playing either one of those dumb games."

"Hey!" exclaimed Seth, "those are great games!"

Marissa rolled her eyes, "Yeah, well how about we see who knows each other better, the boyfriend/girlfriend, or the best friend. So, like, I'll make up 10 questions to ask about Seth and we'll see who gets more right Summer or Ryan, Seth can be the judge. We can do it for all of us!"

Seth and Summer's eyes lit up instantly. "Yeah, ok." They agreed. Ryan rolled his eyes, "are you sure that its not gonna piss people off when they lose?"

Marissa sighed, "Ryan, relax, I don't really care if you don't know every little thing about me, ok? So lets play!"
The four all separated and wrote 10 questions each. Marissa wrote questions for Seth, Ryan wrote questions for Summer, Summer wrote questions for Ryan, and Seth wrote questions for Marissa. "

Ok," Summer declared, since she was the last to finish. "Who should we ask about first?" When nobody answered right away, "Lets finish what we started, Marissa will you ask us about Seth?"

Marissa asked the first question, "What is Seth's favorite food?" Ryan looked around the house, "umm....oh! Pudding!"

Summer looked over at Ryan and laughed, "Pudding?! Try Lucky Charms!"

Seth swallowed and guarded himself from being hit, "actually Summer, it is pudding." Ryan looked triumphantly over at Summer who threw a pillow at his face, "fine, next question she demanded."

Over the course of that game, Summer made a slight comeback, but still lost to Ryan 4-6. She moped for a moment, until Seth kissed her saying, "I lied about all the answers just so that Ryan wouldn't cry".

Summer knew that Seth didn't lie about any of the answers, but she smiled and kissed him anyways. Then they asked who knew Summer better, Marissa or Seth. Marissa kicked Seth's ass, winning 8-2.

Seth approached Summer, "you probably lied about your answers too, right?" Summer shook her head laughing and gave Seth a kiss.

Then they moved on to who knew Marissa better, Summer or Ryan. Summer won that game 7-3 and flaunted it as much as possible.

Finally it came time to see who knew Ryan better, Marissa or Seth. Summer asked the first question, "What is Ryan's favorite color?"

Marissa and Seth thought about it, and then Seth said, "wait a minute, I thought Ryan was color blind! That would explain the wife beaters and gray clothes!"

Marissa laughed and then answered, "I don't know, black? You do wear a lot of black."

"Actually, its orange." Said a voice from the kitchen. Theresa came in wearing her bakery uniform and continued, "Orange reminds Ryan of Halloween, his favorite holiday."
The group became silent and looked at Ryan who shrugged, but nodded.

Seth burst out laughing, but Marissa tilted her head slightly and said, "Theresa, why don't you come and join us!" "Oh, that's ok, I'm pretty wiped."

"Yeah," Ryan agreed eagerly, "I'm sure that you've had a long day." "

Oh come on," Marissa insisted, "You should play this game, it's a lot of fun."

Theresa stared at Ryan for a moment, and then said, "ok, I will play. Who am I challenging?"

"Me and Seth" Marissa said a little more coldly than she had meant.

"Pshh, consider me disqualified." Said Seth, realizing that things were about to get heated. "Well, then I guess its just you and me." Marissa stated Theresa nodded.

"I don't really think that this game is very fun". Ryan said Marissa and Theresa both stared at Ryan and Theresa took a seat on a chair.

Summer cleared her throat and looked around, "ok, I guess that makes 'one' for Theresa. Second question, "Who is Ryan's favorite band?"

Marissa pondered for a moment, but then smiled, "He doesn't have one. Ryan's not really into music."

Theresa laughed, "Did he say that he wasn't in to music? Well, lets remind Ryan of all of 8th grade when he wouldn't come out of his room until he learned every single guitar riff to every Journey song out there. Journey is his favorite band."

Ryan looked down and covered his face with his hands, but he also nodded.

Marissa looked away, embarrassed. Summer cleared her throat again,

"ok...um, I guess that makes two for Theresa. Number three, what's Ryan's favorite class in school?"

Marissa tried not to get over confident, but she knew this one, "English," she answered boldly, "Ryan likes to read,"

Theresa sighed, "yeah, he does like to read." Marissa smiled triumphantly. Theresa continued, "but not as much as he likes building cars. Ryan loved shop class."

Ryan looked up, "Yeah, well, Marissa couldn't have known that, they don't offer Shop at Harbor." "

But, Shop is your favorite class?" Summer questioned. When Ryan nodded she mentally noted another point for Theresa. "Ok, question four, what is Ryan's favorite movie."

Marissa was trying to stop tears from forming in her eyes, but she answered anyway, "Master and Commander".

Theresa smiled and said, "I'm pretty sure it's "The Great Pumpkin". You know, the Charlie Brown special. Ever since Ryan was Snoopie, he's loved Charlie Brown."

The whole group looked at Ryan, silently begging him to disagree with Theresa. When he didn't answer Theresa said, "Hey, I've known Ryan since I was four, and it just comes naturally."

Marissa stared at Theresa refusing to cry in front of her, "Yeah, you guys know everything about each other. Well, I hate to break up the party, but I've gotta go." Marissa stood up quickly and walked out of the living room, but then she broke into a run.

The other four looked after her for a second before Ryan stood up and shouted, "Marissa, wait!" and then he ran after her.
Seth, Summer, and Theresa sat around in silence until Theresa broke the silence, "Was it something I said?"
