CHAPTER 4:
Summer and Seth had been going out for a couple of weeks now. They are still going strong. Marissa and Ryan are still dating and making out everywhere.
Seth and Summer walked down the hall together, holding hands.
"Seth!" someone shouted.
Seth turned around, and quickly released Summer's hand. "Anna?"
"Seth, how are you doing?" exclaimed a breathless Anna. She hugged Seth tightly. Summer frowned.
"Anna, what are you doing here?" asked Seth as he hugged her back.
"I go to school here now. I transfered."
"In the middle of the year?" asked Summer incredibly. Anna nodded.
"I think we should catch up with some stuff. Come on Seth," said Anna as she laced her fingers through Seth's. She pulled Seth away from Summer. Seth gave Summer an apologetic look, and followed Anna.
Summer sighed as she watched them. She went into the lunchroom and walked over to where Ryan and Marissa were sitting. For once, they were not kissing.
Summer sat into the chair and threw her backpack on the ground. She propped her head up with her palms on the table.
"Summer, is there anything wrong?" asked Marissa with a concern look in her eyes.
Summer sighed. "No."
"Where's Seth?" Ryan asked.
"With Tinkerbitch."
"Anna? What?!" exclaimed Marissa.
"She transferred schools. She talking with Cohen right now," said Summer.
"Well, where are they?" asked Marissa.
Summer shrugged. "I don't know," she mumbled.
Marissa and Ryan looked at her with worry. Marissa hugged Summer.
"Coop, he left me. She just went to him, and pulled him away from me. He let it happen. I can't believe he just ditched me. Let her step all over him," choked out Summer.
"Summer, Seth loves you. He probably just want to talk to Anna," said Marissa.
"We...were holding hands until she came. When he saw her, he dropped my hand as fast as possible. Then, he just let her pulled him away. He didn't even say a word to me," said Summer, unaware Ryan is intently listening to the whole thing.
Marissa's eyes darkened but she said soothingly, "Don't worry Summer."
Summer got up from her chair. "Whatev. I don't need him," she muttered to herself. She threw on her backpack and walked away. Marissa and Ryan exchanged worry glances as they watched her.
Summer got through the day. She didn't see Seth since Anna came and took him away. The last bell rang, and Summer got in Marissa's car. Ryan sat in the back seat.
"Hey, hon. So is everything ok now? Did you see Seth?" asked Marissa.
Summer gave her a hurt look. "No," she mumbled.
"Oh," said Marissa disappointed. The car ride was silent until they reached Summer's house.
"Thanks. See ya," mumbled Summer as she grabbed her backpack. She ran to the house, and slammed the door shut.
Ryan sat on the couch as he played videogames. Marissa had just left. They headed straight to the Cohens' after they dropped Summer off.
Seth walked into the living room. "Hey Ryan."
Ryan set down the controller. "Where were you today?"
"Huh? I was at school," said a confused Seth.
"Where were you during lunch?"
"Oh. I was with Anna. Did you know she transfer here? Isn't that great?" "Yes, I did know," said Ryan as he picked up his controller again.
"How?" asked Seth as he sat down on the couch next to Ryan.
"Summer."
"Oh. Talkative one, isn't she? My girlfriend," grinned Seth.
"Is she, Seth? Is she your girlfriend? Because you sure don't treat her like one," said Ryan.
"Huh? Ryan, I have no idea what you're talking about."
Ryan sighed. "You ditched Summer as soon as you saw Anna. You act like she wasn't even there."
"Hey, that's not fair. Can't a guy catch up with his friend?"
"But you excluded Summer out of the conversation. I bet you didn't even tell Anna about Summer being your girlfriend."
"Well...no...but we didn't get to it," stammered Seth.
"Riiight," said Ryan.
"Wait. How do you know all this? You don't even talk to Summer that much."
"She was talking to Marissa. I overheard. She's really upset, man," said Ryan.
"I need to talk to her soon," said Seth.
"Hey, I know you didn't mean to do that on purpose. Don't worry about it. She'll forgive you," said Ryan.
"Yeah...sure," Seth said uncertainly.
The next day, Summer walked with Marissa to their lockers.
"Sum, you really need to talk to Seth," said Marissa as she twirled the numbers on her lock.
"I have nothing to talk to him about," Summer said as she leaned against the neighboring locker.
"Yes. You do. Here he comes now," said Marissa as she looked over Summer's shoulders. "Hey ladies," said Seth casually.
"Hi Seth," said Marissa politely, but not as warmly as before. "Sum, I need to go to the bathroom. See you in English."
Marissa started to leave, and Summer followed.
"Sum, you need to talk to him," Marissa whispered.
"Don't leave me with him, Coop," Summer whispered back. She had a pleading look in her eyes.
Marissa shook her head. "You'll be fine, Summer." She walked away.
Summer started to walk to the opposite direction when Seth caught her arm.
"Summer, please listen to me," pleaded Seth.
Summer crossed her arms and waited.
"Summer, I'm sorry. Please, please forgive me. I can't lose you. Please Summer."
Summer closed her eyes. After a long while, she said, "I forgive you, Cohen. One more chance."
Seth grabbed her waist, and kissed Summer. She kissed back until the bell rang.
"I got to go. See you at lunch," Summer said with a wink. Later on the day...
Summer walked happily to where Marissa and Ryan sat. "Hey guys!"
"Hey, someone is much happier," said Marissa.
"Yeah, Seth apologized. I feel much better," said Summer cheerfully.
"See? I knew talking would help," said Marissa. She's glad to see her best friend so happy.
"Yeah. You're the best, Coop. Where's Cohen anyways? I told him to meet me here at lunch."
"I don't know. I haven't seen him all day. Have you seen him, Ryan?" asked Marissa.
Ryan looked around the room awkwardly.
"Chino! You tell me where Cohen is right now!" yelled Summer.
"He's with Anna," said Ryan quietly as he looked down at his food.
"Where?" said Summer calmly.
"In the library. He said they need to research for some project."
"I see," said Summer as she got up from her chair.
"Sum, where are you going?" called Marissa as Summer walked away.
Summer ignored her, and continues walking to the library. Meanwhile...
"I'm worried about Summer," said Marissa to Ryan.
Ryan continues to stare at his food. "I'm sure Seth has a good reason."
"Why you always defend him? He ditched her 2 times! Especially, when she told him to meet her here!" yelled Marissa.
"Well, he's my best friend! What you expect? You always defend Summer!" Ryan said angrily.
"That's because she's right!" yelled back Marissa.
"Sorry, Marissa. I understand how you feel, being Summer's best friend and all. Don't worry. They'll figure this out," said Ryan quietly.
Marissa hugged Ryan. "I hope so."
"I know they will figure this out. Let's not let them separate our relationship though," said Ryan.
"Ok..." said Marissa as she kissed him on the lips. Summer climbed up the stairs as fast as she can. The tears were threatening to spill over her eyes any minute.
Finally, she walked in the library. 'God, everything is so quiet in here,' she thought. Summer needed to find Seth. She needed to talk to him.
Her eyes scanned the room. No one. Summer started to walk to the back of the room, but stopped abruptly.
What she saw broke her heart.
There in the corner were Seth and Anna kissing.
That's the end of Chapter 4. Please review (I need a total of 10 to start Chapter 5). Thanks!
