A/N: Thanks to all for the great reviews! I wonder if there are any less anti-Theresa fans after what she did in for Ryan in The Distance but nevertheless, I'm still continuing with the story. Is the story leaning more towards SS now? Let me know 'cause I had initially planned it to be a mix of RM and SS. Okay, enough of this and on with the story!


 Marissa walked into Seth's room and Summer quickly minimized the window of the site which she had been looking at.

"Hey Sum, Seth's complaining that we should order dinner soon."

"Uh yeah. Sure. Hang on, I'll be down in a minute." Summer hoped that Marissa would leave the room soon.

"What are you doing anyway? Staring at the desktop?"

"Uh-" Summer did not have her excuse ready when Marissa leaned over, trying to reach the keyboard or mouse to open the window. "Coop!" Summer screamed and grabbed her hand, attempting to get Marissa away but it was no use.

Marissa's eyes widened upon seeing the site and Summer groaned, squeezing her eyes shut, her cover was going to be blown soon.

"Sum... you're not pregnant are you?" Marissa asked anxiously, staring at her best friend.

Summer's eyes flew open. "No! Of course not!" Summer laughed. Coop thought she was pregnant! What a joke! Yet, it was still better then finding about the plan.

"Then why are you on a pregnancy site?" Marissa pressed on, she knew Summer was one who did not open up easily.

"I'm..." Summer trailed. "Uh, trying to help Theresa. You know, so that she has more support from us, throughout her pregnancy." Summer finished, proud that this time, she had at least thought of a reason.

Marissa stared at her for a few seconds and Summer hoped that Marissa had not seen through the lie.

"Okay, whatever you say Sum. First, the tea, now this. But I'm just glad you're not pregnant."

"I'm definitely not. Don't worry Coop. You won't have another pregnant lady in the house to worry about." Summer joked.

Marissa smiled, "So can we go down and order dinner? Seth's been... impatient to say the least."

Summer nodded and suddenly asked, "Hey Coop, Chino and you will be okay with anything we order right?"

"I don't have any cravings for anything and Ryan's not fussy about food..."

"Great! Cohen and I will order the food!" With that, Summer ran out the door and down the stairs to look for Seth.

----

Summer looked proudly at the table. It was filled with so many different types of take-outs that it would probably qualify as a feast.

"Wow. Nice spread." Summer turned to see Ryan and Marissa in the doorway. Marissa paused and added, "It's not anyone's birthday or anything right?"

"I just thought it would be sort of a welcome home dinner for Chino." Summer smiled. That was half the truth, it was also the celebration of the start of their revenge on the bitch who was living in the pool house.

"Uh, thanks..." Ryan was not really used to this type of stuff where people actually cared and spared a thought for him. Well, the Cohens were an exception.

Seth entered the kitchen, Sandy and Kirsten followed closely behind. When they spotted Ryan, they immediately went over to him.

Kirsten stepped towards him with tears in her eyes and hugged him tightly. Ryan smiled warmly, returning the hug. Theresa walked in just as the two pulled apart.

"So how's it to be back?" Sandy asked when Kirsten had traded places with him so that he was nearer to Ryan.

"It's great... to be home." Ryan replied and at this, Theresa scowled. Home?! Ryan thought this was home? Yeah right. She would show him...

Everyone's smile broadened when they heard what Ryan said. Sandy patted him on the back, "It's good to have you back too."

"Okay, can we eat now?" Seth interrupted the moment and everyone laughed. As they moved towards the table, the others realized that there were placemats decorated with their names on it.

"Wow, Seth, what's the occasion?" Kirsten asked as she walked over to her allocated seat.

"Ryan's back where he belongs!" Seth yelled like a childish kid and everyone laughed once more. With the exception of Theresa of course.

Marissa glanced around the table, looking for her placemat. She eventually found it and was pleased to note that it was beside Ryan's. Ryan seemed to have noticed too and gave her a smile.

Theresa, on the other hand, was fuming when she spotted her designated seat. She was supposed to seat opposite Kirsten who was sitting next to Marissa, who naturally, was sitting beside Ryan. She shot a glare at Summer whom she was pretty sure was responsible for this whole sitting arrangement thing. Well, she could not do anything now. Not in front of Sandy and Kirsten, she needed a roof over her head while she was winning Ryan back.

Sighing, she flopped into the seat and stared at the delicious food in front of her. At least the food was good. However, with a jolt, she realized that she could not eat most of the food on the table 'cause she was... pregnant.

Damn. The spread of food was good! She groaned and scanned the table for something that she would be able to eat. Her eyes landed on the bowl of salad and...

"Here, for you." Summer who had settled in her seat opposite Ryan leaned across Seth to pass Theresa a burger.

"Thanks. That's thoughtful of you." Theresa smiled. There it was, the fake smile again.

"No problem." Summer played it up with another of her fake smile.

Great. All she could eat was salad and burger when there was so much other food on the table right in front of her eyes. The sushi was out as were the sausages. The wine that Sandy had taken out to celebrate was out too. Theresa gave up thinking about the food she could not eat, what good would it do? It would just make everything a whole lot more tempting.

Summer nudged Seth and discreetly pointed at Theresa. Their plan had worked, Theresa was not able to enjoy the feast as much as the rest of them.


A/N: At least it was slightly longer than the last chapter! I've already thought of the next chapter so it should be up soon. Let me know whether you like this one though! :)
