Ok, guys....don't freak out or anything....but this is the last chapter. I
know, I know...bittersweet. But.....the good news is, this was only my first
story! I'll have many more. Most of them will be the same couples,
because I LOVE SS and RM is just a given. I promise that if people keep
reading and reviewing...I'll keep the magic flowing! Oh oh... look for the
sequel to this! It'll come out soon, as soon as I figure what it should be
about. Remember, my name is liz88zil. I own nothing. Please review!
Chapter 12 – The final frontier, or is it...
Seth watched the helicopter with fascination, but then lost interest as it began to turn around. He could tell that it was still close to the island, but as the helicopter disappeared from sight, he let his mind return to Ryan and Summer. "What do you think they're doing now?" he asked Captain Oats. "Summer's probably at a party, and I'm probably the last thing on her mind." Seth looked down at Captain Oats and nodded, "Yeah, you're right. I guess it could be worse than being here with that bag of noise." He said as he pointed to Marissa. "I mean, I could be in Ryan's shoes right now...buying Huggies." Seth sat back down and laid his head slowly on the sand, with his legs still in the water. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of complete relaxation.
Summer and Ryan saw Seth from a distance, and began to slowly creep towards him. "Hey," Summer whispered, "Why don't you go wake Marissa up however you want to, I'm going to have some fun here." Ryan smiled and nodded, sounds good. "Hey Summer?" "Yeah?" "I'm glad that Marissa and Seth were gone when I got back." "Why?" "This was a lot of fun." Summer smiled and then rolled her eyes. "Oh Chino!" Summer continued to walk slowly towards Seth.
Sleep was just beginning to take a hold of Seth when all of a sudden a heavy mass of Sand fell straight on his face. He inhaled some instinctively and then sat up and began to cough it out.
"That is for trying to desert me for the whole summer!" Summer said angrily, but trying not to laugh.
Seth whipped around, shaking the sand out of his hair. "Summer?! How...when..how did you get here?"
"Oh you know..." Summer started casually, "I just dropped in a little while ago. Cohen.." Summer started as she pointed to where Ryan stood watching them reunite.
"Ryan? Why aren't you in Chino?!"
"It's a long story man, but the short version Is that Theresa's not pregnant, and so I came back to find you guys...but..., well you know the rest."
"Can't say that I do..." Seth said slowly, trying to process all of this excitement.
"Cohen, I'll answer all questions later, but I haven't seen you for like...four days, so..." Summer down next to Seth and kissed him slowly.
Seth broke away, "Ryan, that's your cue to leave. Have fun dealing with that." Seth said as he pointed to Marissa.
"I will" Ryan said as he walked away from the couple.
Ryan approached Marissa slowly, preparing to use a different technique than Summer used. After all, he didn't blame Marissa for leaving, there was no reason to be mad at her. He just hoped that Marissa wasn't too mad at him. Ryan slowly lowered himself down next to Marissa and began to gently brush her hair out of her face.
"It feels like were still sailing...." Marissa mumbled quietly. Ryan smiled and then began to kiss Marissa on the cheek. Marissa responded slowly turning towards Ryan until their lips met. Just before however, Marissa seemed to realize where she was and she shot up. She hit heads with Ryan hard and he sank back into the sand holding his forehead. Marissa shook her head violently and then opened her eyes again. "Ryan?"
"Yep, it's me." Ryan confirmed, still rubbing his forehead.
"Oh my God! What are you doing here?!"
"Well, I was trying to be sweet, but you have really bad reaction times."
"No, what are you doing HERE, why aren't you in Chino."
"That doesn't matter right now. I'm here, and I'm never going back to Chino. I'm sorry I left you Marissa."
Marissa grinned and leaned in to kiss Ryan. But just before, she noticed Summer making out with Seth. "Oh my God! Summer!" Marissa exclaimed, running towards Summer.
Summer pulled away urgently from Seth, "Coop!" The two girls hugged each other tightly, "I'm so sorry Sum." Marissa said, "I just needed to be away."
"I know, I know." Summer pulled Marissa even tighter, "just don't ever do it again."
"Ok." Marissa promised as she pulled away from Summer.
Ryan and Seth both walked up next to the girls.
"So," Seth started, "What should we do now?"
"Well, I want to know how you two got here!"
"Well, It's a long trip back to Newport, we'll tell you on the way."
"Ok." Marissa nodded. Well, I'm not tired anymore...should we leave now?"
Seth and Summer shrugged, "Yeah, I guess."
"There is no reason to put Maryether of any longer."
"Actually," Ryan began, grabbing the attention of the other three, "Were already on our way to Tahiti right? And that's where Seth's parents think we are anyways...."
Summer, Seth and Marissa all slowly began to grin.
"Maryethmer doesn't happen in a specific location anyways right?" asked Summer.
"Plus, who wants to go back to Newport?" added Marissa. Everybody looked at Seth hopefully, wanting his permission to intrude on his private vacation. Seth hesitated, just to dramatize the whole situation, but then rolled his eyes and nodded, "Of course guys. This is going to rock! Oh wait, I forgot about somebody! I mean were all going to have each other, but..." he slowly pointed to Captain Oats on the ground. "Wait a minute" Summer exclaimed, breaking from the group and coming back shortly. She also paused, before whipping out Princess Sparkle from behind her. Seth pulled Summer close to her, and Ryan followed his lead with Marissa. The four stood together for a minute, before starting to gather up all of their things.
"Summer, you're going to sink Summer Breeze with this thing!" Seth exclaimed trying to lift her suitcase.
"Cohen, you just tried to ditch me for the entire summer!"
"Got it." Seth said as Ryan helped him load the suitcase into the boat. The four climbed onto the now extremely crowded boat, but they couldn't have been happier. These three couples weren't exactly worried about not having much room. "So," Marisa began, "Why don't you start from the beginning." Ryan began to tell the story of what happened to him in Chino. Laughter filled the open sea air as Summer Breeze sailed into the rising sun.
That's all folks. Stay tuned for the sequel. Everything goes wrong in Tahiti. This is the O.C., of course there will be drama.
