Marissa woke up that morning to find herself in Ryan's arms once again. She loved the feeling of being held so tightly in his arms and being so close to him and everything about him...Ryan made her feel like she could do anything and be anything as long as Ryan was there with her. She never really knew someone could change her whole outlook on life until she met Ryan and he did just that. Marissa softly stroked Ryan's sandy blonde hair as she looked at him deeply, taking in each aspect of him.

A small smile spread across Ryan's face as he slowly opened his dark blue eyes. "Good morning," he said rather groggily.

"Hey....." Marissa said. "Did you sleep good?"

"Yeah, actually I did. The best I've slept in a long time!"

"That's good!" she said as a smile spread across her face.

"So, you want to go get breakfast?"

"Love to!!" she replied, kissing him on the cheek as she got out of bed. Ryan and Marissa headed out of the pool house and off to the Cohen's kitchen, to eat some breakfast.

Once in the kitchen Ryan and Marissa headed over to the fridge to get some orange juice. Then, they quietly sat down at the kitchen table. Ryan found it rather odd that the house was so quiet considering the fact it was pretty late in the morning. Just then, Kirsten and Sandy walked in the kitchen carrying bags of groceries. They were followed by Seth and Summer who also had grocery bags in hand.

"Well, good to know you two love birds are up!" Seth said sarcastically.

Ryan and Marissa looked at each other, rather annoyed with Seth's comment.

"Good morning!" Kirsten said as she set her groceries down.

"Hey," Ryan and Marissa replied.

"Hi guys, ummmm....Ryan and Seth could I talk to you two alone for a minute." Sandy commented.

"Yeah, sure." they said as they followed Sandy out into the family room.

"Well, you see I'm a little worried about this "Free Love Commune" we've got going on in my household." Sandy said, seriously.

"Dad, come on I'm 17. Now I know you don't like the idea of Summer and I sleeping together you know I mean just sleeping, back in my room, but remember Tahiti?!?" Seth argued.

"Yes, I do and well that was a bad situation... but mainly I'm just saying the girls can't stay here every night. I mean your teenagers and I was your age once, but I have to be the parent and just talk to you about these things. So, just you know be careful and respectful of my wishes...Okay??" Sandy finished.

"Yeah... okay!" Ryan said.

"Of course dad... I'll be 'careful' and stuff," Seth said as he left the family room, followed by Ryan.

"Dude, that was weird." Seth said to Ryan as they left the room.

"I know... That conversation made me rather uncomfortable." Ryan said with a small smile on his face.

"I'm wid you bro!" Seth said as he patted Ryan on the back.

"Seth... you are not black," Ryan replied.

"I know man, and sometimes it really sucks that I'm not ," Seth said.

Ryan and Seth entered the kitchen to find Marissa and Summer talking with Kirsten as they ate bagels. They grabbed a bagel themselves and sat down next to the girls.

"So.... Ryan....Seth... The girls and I were just talking and decided it might be good for the four of you to get out and go somewhere for a little while this summer...not Tijuana either, someplace where you could learn about some things but have fun too." Kirsten said.

"Wow, mom you rock."

"Yeah, well I talked to Sandy about it and he said it would be okay if ya'll were careful, and mature. You know not relive last summer's experience...I was thinking New York might be nice. You know there's a lot to do...oh and my cousin, Sarah lives there in an apartment that she owns and is offering you guys jobs and a place to stay!"

"Wow, mom you left out a few details there.. didn't ya?!?" Seth said.

"Yeah, well..."

"Actually it might be kind of cool I mean we wouldn't be working all the time and..." Ryan started.

"Yeah." Marissa agreed.

"Sure." Summer replied.

"Okay, I guess." Seth finally caved in. But, he thought there was something fishy about the situation... Well, only time would tell!

A Week Later

Summer and Marissa had gotten everything worked out with their parents who had agreed to the idea under the circumstances. Their plane tickets had been bought and their flight was scheduled for today. The four teens had their bags packed and were ready for the trip that awaited them.

Sandy and Kirsten dropped them off at the airport and said their goodbyes...however the kids would be back in a few weeks and had supervision so they were happy with the idea.

Once their plane was called they waved goodbye as they walked down the terminal to board the plan that would take them from California to New York City.

Ryan and Marissa sat down next to each other and behind them sat Seth and Summer. The two couples talked and slept and well kissed a little throughout the plane ride... so they were surprised when the flight attendant announced their arrival in New York!

They all got up and walked off the plane; Ryan and Marissa hand in hand, Seth and Summer hand in hand. They were just four ordinary teens in love and ready to begin their unpredictable trip to the Big Apple. They didn't know exactly what would happen during their summer trip, but one thing was for sure it would be a summer to remember!

As the four teens headed out the doors of the airport, exposing the busy streets of New York City, they all thought to themselves.... 'Well, New York City here we come!!!'

A/N: Sorry guys, I know I wrote something at the beginning of the chapter, but I have a few other comments to make! I know this might be unrealistic that they are going to NYC by themselves, but it is New Port and I needed something interesting to happen... So, anyway I thought of this! By the way I'm going to NY for a week too, so I couldn't resist. Okay well, please review now and I understand if this chapter sucks, but I had to get it written. Thanks!! :)
