A/N: Thanks for the reviews guys! Sorry to confuse you on the whole Holly thing (in Chapter 1). That was just filler; I didn't want to make the chapter too short. That will probably be the only time Holly makes an appearance. Oh yea, this story isn't at the actual time the show is right now. It is kinda hard to write a S/S story without some interaction between the two (I'm more of a dialogue person). Well, here's my second chapter. Hope you like it! R&R!

CHAPTER 2:

Ring-Ring-Ring....the telephone rang. Summer sleepily reached for her phone.

"Hello?" she mumbled sleepily.

"Sum!! Are you still sleeping?" yelled Marissa.

"Yes. I need some sleep," grumbled Summer.

"Summer, did you forget about our plans today? The Beach, remember? And oh yeah...Seth is coming in 10 minutes to pick you up," said Marissa.

"What?!?!? Cohen is coming? In 10 mins?" shrieked Summer as she scrambled out of bed.

"Yea, Summer," laughed Marissa.

"Marissa! I don't have time to prepare my outfit and put on my make up," whined Summer.

"Yes you will. Besides, Seth thinks you're cute no matter what. See ya," said Marissa as she hang up the phone.

Summer quickly brushed her teeth and put her hair into a high ponytail. She grabbed her red bikini and put it on. She then slipped her white tank top and short-shorts on. Summer just finished putting on cheery chapstick when the doorbell rung.

"Shit!" said Summer as she frantically dig around her drawer for her sunglasses and sunscreen. The doorbell rang again.

"I'm coming!" yelled Summer as she put the items in her beach bag.

She slipped on some flip flops and opens the door.

"Hey," she breathed.

"Hi Summer," said Seth.

"Let's go," said Summer as she walked down the steps.

The car ride was silence. Funny, Seth and Summer usually bickered full force by now. Finally, Seth spoke.

"So, I see you decided to go natural today," said Seth trying to make a conversation.

Summer rolled her eyes. "Don't remind me. I look horrible. I knew I should have brought some make up with me."

"No, you don't. You look beautiful," said Seth softly.

Summer looked at him and smiled. "Thanks..."

She felt her barriers coming down. 'No, be strong. You don't need a guy,' she told herself. Summer turned away and looked outside the window.

They finally reached Seth's house. Summer ran to the porch while Seth unlocks the doors.

"Ryan?" called Seth. He went into the kitchen and saw Ryan and Marissa making out with her back against the refrigerator. "Oh god..." mumbled Seth.

Summer stormed in the kitchen. "Chino. Riss. Get both of your asses to the car!"

Ryan sheepishly got off of Marissa. They both headed to the car. By the time Seth and Summer went to the Range Rover, Ryan and Marissa was making out again. This time, however, was in the backseat.

"Ug...it's no use," mumbled Summer.

The gang finally reached the beach. Ryan carried the umbrellas and chairs while Seth carried the coolers. Summer slipped on her sunglasses and took out her sunscreen from her bag.

"Marissa, put it on for me?" said Summer.

"I need to go get some food with Ryan. Why don't Seth do it for you?" said Marissa.

Summer glared at Marissa. "Fine..." said Summer.

"Cohen. Do me," said Summer.

"Huh?" asked a bewildered Seth.

"I meant...um. Sunscreen on my back," Summer said quickly. Her face flushed pink.

"Sure," said Seth.

He splashed some on her back and began spreading it. Summer relaxed her tense shoulders.

"Oh, I can get use to this," smiled Seth.

"Dream on. Don't get use to it," replied Summer as she rolled her eyes. Yet, her heart started beating faster.

"I know you can't resist my charms," teased Seth.

"You wish," retorted Summer as she grabbed the bottle out of his hand. "Thanks..."

"No problem. Anytime," teased Seth.

"I'm thirsty," said Summer.

"So? Go get a soda from the cooler..." replied Seth.

"Cohen," whined Summer.

"Yes princess," smiled Seth as he got up and walked to the cooler. "Here you go," he said as he handed a Diet Pepsi to Summer. She took a sip out of the can while Seth watched her.

"What?" Summer asked.

"I...um..." stammered Seth.

"What, Cohen?" asked Summer, this time more irritated.

"Nothing," Seth mumbled.

"Whateva."

Meanwhile, Ryan and Marissa had a conversation of their own.

"Marissa, don't you think we should get back to Seth and Summer now? Before they kill each other?" asked Ryan.

"No. Just a few more minutes."

"What's going on?"

"What? Nothing..." said Marissa innocently.

"Marissa, I know something is up."

Marissa sighed. "Fine, but you better not tell anyone."

"Who will I tell?"

"Summer told me she like Seth," whispered Marissa.

"She said that?!" asked Ryan, his eyes widening.

"No," Marissa admits. "But I know she does."

"I don't think so. They bicker every time they're together."

"Just watch, Ryan. I'm going to be right."

"Marissa, do I sense some matchmaking plans?"

"No," said Marissa quickly.

"I think you should stay out of their business," said Ryan.

"Oh really?" asked Marissa. Ryan nodded. Marissa kissed Ryan's lips, and that turned into a big make-out session.

"I think we should get back..." said Ryan. They both started walking back to where Seth and Summer sat.

Meanwhile, Seth and Summer started to argue.

"Summer, what's going on between us?" asked Seth.

"What? You're imagining things, Cohen," replied Summer.

"Why aren't we arguing? How come there are awkward silences every time we're together now?"

"We're arguing now, aren't we?" said Summer coolly.

"But..."

"Whatever, Cohen. Tell Riss and Chino I'm going to the restroom," said Summer.

"Ok..." said a confused Seth. He watched her leave when Marissa and Ryan came back. "Geez, what took you guys so long?" Seth asked.

"Nothing," Marissa and Ryan both chirped at the same time.

"Where's Summer?" Marissa asked.

"Oh she went to the restroom," said Seth.

"Ok," said Marissa as she and Ryan sat down. All of them started talking. After awhile, Summer was still not back.

"Where's Summer?" wondered Marissa.

"I don't know," Seth said.

"I'm going to check the restroom," said Marissa as she got up. A few minutes, she came running towards Seth and Ryan. "Guys! Summer's gone!"

"Calm down, Riss," said Ryan soothingly. "She probably went to get some food or something."

"Let's go find her. She have to be here somewhere," said Seth worrily.

"Ok. You and Ryan go find her. I'll wait here just incase she come back. Hurry!" said Marissa as she bit her bottom lip.

Ryan and Seth went off to find Summer. When they still couldn't find her in 15 minutes, they decided to go back to Marissa.

"Seth, wait. Who's that? Isn't that Summer?" asked Ryan.

Seth turned around and they both started to head towards the figure. Sure enough, the figure belonged to Summer. She was sitting on the floor hugging herself. Her face and eyes were red, blotchy, and puffy. Tears were running down her face. There was a bruise forming on her arm.

"Summer! What happened?!" Seth yelled.

Please review! Chapter 3 should be up soon.
