"Marissa" Ryan yelled out.
He looked everywhere in the pool house, but she was gone. Maybe this was for the best. He didn't know what to say to her anyhow and if she broke down crying again he wouldn't be able to hold back making her feel safe again.
"Hi Cohen. Just let me grab my bag okay." Summer spoke.
"Uh. Summer. Where are we going? I thought you wanted me to hang out at your place." Seth said confused.
"Well change of plans. I need you to drive me to Coop's place because she called me and my car is getting fixed."
"Wait. Hold on. She is at my house right now. Ryan told me."
"What are you talking about Cohen? She is not there."
"Whatever you say Summer."
At Jimmy Cooper's apartment...
"Hey kiddo. I didn't hear you come in last night. Where did you go?" Jimmy asked.
"Um. It's a long story. I will tell you later. Summer is coming by any minute." Marissa replied.
"Well you will have your privacy since I have a meeting with Sandy and some inspector. See you later."
"Yeah, bye."
The phone rings...
"Hi Summer." Marissa answered.
"Hey Coop. Cohen and I will be late. He tried to take a short cut and now we are lost." Summer said.
In the background Seth mentions we are not lost.
"Well as long as you get here that's fine. I really need to talk to you."
"Well that just might be awhile."
Seth gives her a look as Summer hangs up the phone.
Well at least this gives me a chance to change since I am still wearing the clothes from the day before she thought.
The doorbell rings. Finally Marissa thought as she opened the door.
"Uh." Marissa trying to grasp the words she needs to say.
"Hey." Ryan says. "Can I come in?"
She stood there motionless. It was as though the cat caught her tongue literally. Her face became hot as she forced the words out.
"Yeah."
The tension between them felt like all the cliques that you hear like the tension is so thick you could cut it with a knife. The tiny space of the apartment did not help the situation. Maybe she shouldn't have left the pool house when she did. What would have happened then? Well she can't turn back time and he was here now so isn't that what she really wanted?
"Listen I came here to tell you that you shouldn't have come by last night." Ryan said.
He knew that it sounded harsh, but harsh was what he was looking for.
"I know. I just didn't know what else to do. You didn't call me and no one was answering the phone so I freaked out and wanted to see if you were okay."
"Well I am."
"I can see that, and I am glad."
"Since that is settled I should go."
"No, stay. Just for a while. Have some breakfast. I know you probably didn't have any."
"And you would know that because?"
"I saw you before Seth stopped you."
"Oh."
Now there was an awkward silence that was broken by the doorbell ringing.
"I'll just get that"
Marissa opened the door to find Summer and Seth finally making their arrival.
"Hey Coop. Cohen still drives like an old lady. Sorry about the delay." Summer said.
"Well Summer, you will just have to deal with it." Seth replied.
Noticing Ryan is there....
"Oh hey Ryan. I see you and Marissa are back together. So Coop is this what you wanted to tell me?" Summer said gleefully.
"I should really get going." Ryan said trying to leave the situation he found himself in.
"Hold up. Am I not getting something here?" Summer said confused.
"Obviously not and this wouldn't be the first time." Seth replied sarcastically.
Ryan bolted from the place before Marissa could object.
"No. No. No. This was not what I wanted to happen." Marissa said as she fell on the couch and began to cry.
"I'm so sorry Coop. I thought that was the big news. I should go. You probably hate me now." Summer replied upset.
"No, Sum. Stay. I need you more than ever."
"I'll just leave you two alone." Seth said.
After this incident all Seth wanted to do was find Ryan. He needed to have one of their all-famous Seth-Ryan talks.
He looked everywhere in the pool house, but she was gone. Maybe this was for the best. He didn't know what to say to her anyhow and if she broke down crying again he wouldn't be able to hold back making her feel safe again.
