" Ryan, please. You have to believe me! I don't want him! Ryan, please!!" Marissa was cried out. She was on the verge on breaking down completely into sobs. She was running after Ryan, who had just entered the Cohen's house. Seth and Summer were right on her heels.
Sandy and Kirsten rushed out to see what all the commotion was about.
" What's going on? " Sandy demanded.
Ryan stopped and turned to Marissa who had tears streaking down her face. Her looked at her for what seemed like forever. All he wanted to do was hold her and make her tears go away. NO, he thought. SHE HURT YOU, YOU DIDN'T HURT HER. He finally tore his eyes away from her and ran towards the pool house. Marissa stood there for a moment, fighting an inward battle. She finally decided to go after him.
" Ok, what was that all about?" Kirsten asked, looking directly at Seth.
" ummm.." Seth said uncomfortably wondering weather or not he should tell his mom of the nights events.
" Nothing," Summer said, cutting him off. " Gee it's getting late. I should probably be getting home. Cohen?"
" Hmm?"
" Are you going to drive me or what?"
" O, you want.., well, yea, let's go."
Seth drove Summer home. The car ride was silent.
" Do you think that Ryan will forgive her?" Summer asked as Seth pulled up to her house.
" Yea, I mean, sure. Ryan knows that it wasn't Mariss'a fault. Besides, he loves her."
" Really? He said that?" Summer looked at him questionally.
" Well, no." Summer's face dropped. " But you can totally tell."
" Really?"
" Yeah."
Summer turned to Seth and looked at him directly in the eye. " Thanks." Than she did something that even surprised her. She kissed him. " I got to go." She got out of the car. " Hey, Cohen."
Seth turned to face her. " Yeah?"
" You tell anybody about this..."
" I know I know, you'll kill me."
When Summer got inside, she realized that she had been smiling the entire time she was walking up he driveway. Seth took one last look at the girl of his dreams, and drove off.
**Meanwhile, at the pool house**
" Ryan will you please stop and listen to me?" Marissa said once they were inside the poolhouse. The tears never stopped comming down her face.
" Why should I Marissa? So you can break my heart again? Huh? Am I just a game to you? Is that what I am? A game?" Ryan was growing increasingly angry by the moment.
"No! Of course not! You mean everything to me! " Marissa was desperately trying to calm him down. Nothing seemed to work.
Ryan gave her a cold, hard stare. Marissa suddenly became scared.
" I love you." She told him.
Ryan shook his head. " You're just saying that so this will all be over. So we can pretend this fight never happened. Is that it?"
" No! I really do love you." Marissa looked into his eyes. She saw sheer anger and pain, but could swear that for a breif moment, she saw happiness, but it quickly faded.
" No! Your just saying that! Stop it!" He screamed.
Marissa just kept on saying " No, Ryan, I love you with all my heart."
Ryan just covered his ears and shook his head. "NO NO NO!! Stop your just saying that. You always say that, but you never mean it.
Marissa stopped. She realized that he was in his own world now. She couldn't reach him.
Ryan suddenly stopped. He looked straight into Marissa's eyes.
**Inside the Cohen's House**
Seth walked throught the door to his house on cloud nine. All he could think about was Summer. As he turned the corner to go into the kitchen, he ran into someone.
" Seth, what happened?" Kirsten asked sternly.
" What?" Seth ask confused.
" With Ryan and Marissa, what happened?" she asked again.
Before Seth could answer, they heard a loud crash. It sounded like glass being smashed against a wall.
Sandy, Kirsten, and Seth all ran outside towards the pool house. When they got there, they saw something they never expected to see. Ryan was sitting on the floor, his knees against his chest, and his head down, crying. Riley was kneeling next to him, trying to get him to calm down. On the other side of the room was Marissa, her eyes wide and full of terror, with Jake carefully trying to get her to be less afraid and go home. Next to Marissa lied a broken glass cup.
" Seth, go to your room now." Kirsten oredered him.
" But mom.."
" Now!!"
Seth looked at his father for help, but Sandy just gave him a do-what-your-mother-says-if-you-know-whats-good-for-you look. Seth reluctantly went to his room.
" Might as well go to your room as well. There's nothing you can do." Riley said.
" Who are you?" Sandy asked.
" Doesn't matter. There's nothing you can do. Just go."
" Now wait a minute.." Sandy started. He was interrupted by a glare that sent chills down his spine. Not the good kind of chills either. Kirsten got the same feeling. Kirsten looked at Ryan one last time, and they left to go back to the house.
Marissa was slowly walking outside, her eyes never leaving Ryan. She had never seen this side of him before. The anger, the saddness. HE BROKE, she thought. RYAN ATWOOD, NEWPORT BAD BOY FINALLY BROKE. Marissa stopped. " Jake?"
Jake slowly turned around. " What?"
" Is he going to be OK?"
" I hope so. Jesus, I hope so."
" Ryan, please. You have to believe me! I don't want him! Ryan, please!!" Marissa was cried out. She was on the verge on breaking down completely into sobs. She was running after Ryan, who had just entered the Cohen's house. Seth and Summer were right on her heels.
