Sorry for my English. It isn't perfect, I know. But this is my first fanfic (in English) and I'm actually from the Netherlands, so I'm trying! Well, you'd probably ask why I wrote this story not in Dutch then. Just improving my English and you have to admit it sounds way cooler when Summer says:"You're such an ass, Cohen" instead of "Je bent zo'n ezel, Cohen". I hope you like the story and maybe laugh of it (and not only because of my bad English) Tell me what you think of the story (even if it's the worst you ever read) and correct my spelling mistakes! Oh, how could I forget... I don't own the OC. Ok, now I'll finally stop boring you with this and begin with the story.
The story begins after the Ties that bind.
He was walking at the big villa, he knew this was going to be one of the hardest things he had to do in his entire life. He pushed the door bell.
"Please don't let Summers dad open the door. Please don't let it be Summers dad. Please don't let it be Summers...DAD", Seth said when he noticed Summer opend the door.
There he was, Seth Cohen, just right in front of her. She had heard from Marissa Seth came back home, well actually, Seth was brought home by two policemen. That only could happen to Seth Cohen; going al the way to Tahiti and then getting arrested. She didn't know why he left her and she thought a lot about what he was going to say to her now he returned. And now he was here and he called her dad?
"You just called me dad?"
"Ehm yes...no, I mean I..."
"Why did you leave? How could you leave me with no even telling me?", Summer interrupted him.
"I left you a letter", Seth tried.
"A letter?" Summer hadn't got a letter. "What did you write me?"
Seth was confused. Summer never even got the letter? He knew exactly what he had written her, but he couldn't say that to her. She would probably freak out or have another rage black out. He had to made something up.
"Er... well ...that I...I". He didn't know what to say.
"Whatever", Summer stopped him. She thought it was a very lame lie of him to tell her he had written a letter. He didn't even had the guts to tell her what really was going on.
"If you came al the way over here, just to stammer, I think you'd better leave, especially because you're so good at it, Cohen"
"But Summer, I really am sorry. I..."
Summer was giving him a very angry look and Seth knew there was no possibility that Summer was going to forgive him now.
"You have to go".
And before Seth could say something, Summer already slammed the door. He looked disappointed at the door. He wished he never went to Tahiti.
Four weeks later"What do you think? Pink or red?"
"Definitely red"
Summer and Marissa were shopping. They did that a lot the last weeks, because Summer really didn't want to think of Seth anymore and Marissa was very upset that Ryan was still in Chino without hearing anything from him. Summer had tried to make Marissa feel better by telling her that Ryan never said much and he probably was scared of using a phone. But it didn't really help, well at least Marissa hadn't been drinking.
The cell phone of Marissa went of.
"Hello? Hey, how are you? Yeah I'm fine. It isn't? that's great...I mean...What? Really? Of course I'll be there. Love you too"
Summer was really surprised. She didn't know Marissa had a new boyfriend.
"Coop? Who was that?"
Marissa had a really big smile on her face. "Ryan, he's back"
"Chino? But he...?"
"The baby wasn't his and now he's moving back in with the Cohens. He just arrived at their house. I have to go and see him. Do you wanna come?"
"No thanks". She didn't want to see Seth. The last four weeks they had developped a weird kinda friendship and had a lot of akward moments together. This would be another of those akward moments, especially because Summer and Seth then had to watch Ryan and Marissa hugging and kissing each other.
"You don't want to see Seth?"
"It's not because of Cohen. I couldn't care less about someone like him. He's such a geek, reading comic books, watching Spongebob, talking to toys, sailing...and that sarcasm of him"
"Oh, that's why you're with Zach?", Marissa asked. Summer dated Zach for a week now and Zach was a geek just like Seth.
"Hey, that's not fair. Zach isn't sarcastic at all".
That was true, Zach took everything very serious and it was irritating Summer. Another difference between Zach and Seth was that Summers dad liked Zach, because Zachs mother was one of his richest clients. Summer thought back at the moment she told her father she broke up with Seth. Her father said he felt sorry for her, but she knew he didn't mean it, because he had a slight smile on his face when he said it. If Kirsten was one of his clients, he likely would have cried at hearing such news.
"Fine. I think I'll buy this red dress"
"What if I want him?"
"You want the red dress? Are you sure, because I like it a..."
"I meant Cohen, what if I want him back?" Summer couldn't believe she had said that aloud.
"He's been apologizing to you for the last four weeks, so he probably wants you back. Maybe you should just tell him how feel?"
"Coop, be realistic"
"Summer, you're impossible", Marissa laughed. Summer wasn't into telling how she really felt, especially for guys. "But I really have to go to Ryan now. I'll see you soon"
Marissa paid for the red dress and left to the Cohens, leaving Summer alone at the shop. Summer bought a hundred things, trying to ignore goofy shirts that Seth always wore. Damn, why did she had to like Seth Cohen so much?
More action to come in chapter 2
