Ryan wasn't all that interested in the movie and spent most of the time looking out the window. Almost at the end of the movie Ryan saw carlights come up the drive way, he immediately jumped up.
"Hey what's wrong?" Marissa asked Ryan.
"I think Seth's home." Ryan said and walked out of the room.
Marissa looked over at Summer who had paid no attention to what just happened.
"Hey Sum, I think Seth just got home." Marissa informed.
"What?" Summer replied, "Really, do we have enough time to leave?"
Just as Summer said that she could hear Seth's voice.
"Hey man, whose car is out in the driveway?" Seth asked.
"Uh Seth, I know you may not like this and I apologise before but Summer is in the room with Zach." Ryan informed quietly.
"What? Why is she here with him?" Seth asked.
"She called marissa and wanted us to hang out with them, that's why she is here, we had a movie rented." Ryan replied.
"Oh well this should be fun cause Alex is on her way over." Seth replied half smiling and headed into the room.
"Hey Marissa, Summer and guy I believe is Zach." Seth said and sat down next the Summer and Zach.
"Cohen?" Summer replied.
"What, you're in my house on a date. Just want to get to know him. Hey man I'm Seth." Seth said reaching his hand out for Zach.
Zach looked at him with a confused look but shook his hand anyway.
"This Summer is a jewel isn't she?" Seth said, "Just to let you know man, she's not into foreplay, she likes getting to the deed right away. Just to clear up any questions."
Ryan and Marissa looked up at him shocked at what he just said.
"Cohen! Why are you being such an ss?" Summer asked angerly.
"What just trying to help the guy out." SEth replied.
"Well don't!" Summer replied, "Zach maybe we should leave."
"Don't leave on my account." Seth said standing up and moving seats, "Stay this should be an interesting evening."
Just as Seth finished talking the door bell rang, Seth jumped up quickly, "That's for me, I'll be right back."
Seth returned shortly with Alex, who looked over at Summer, "What's she doing here?" She asked quietly but loud enough for people to know what she said.
"She was here when I got home, but this will be a good evening I can just tell." Seth said.
Ryan pointed the remote towards the tv and stopped the movie; Marissa looked up at him confused.
"It's not like anyone here is about to let us finish the movie." Ryan stated.
"Yeah I guess you're right, maybe we can finish it in the morning." Marissa replied adjusting herself to get more comfortable.
Alex and Seth sat down, Alex looked around at everybody, "Hi Ryan, Marissa." Alex said looking at them, "Summer and Zack right?"
"Yeah." Summer replied and immediately looked away, "So Coop!"
Alex looked over at Seth, "Well I guess someone doesn't like me."
"Don't worry, Summer just needs to get to know you first." Seth said quietly, "She's not as bad as she likes to project."
Alex nodded.
"So Seth, why are you finished so early?" Marissa asked.
"They had too many people scheduled tonight, I guess things weren't as busy as they thought it would be." Seth replied.
"Yeah I think everyone who would have been out tonight were out last night." Alex added.
"I see, last night was a pretty good night. I think we all had a good time." Marissa replied, "Right Sum?"
"Yeah it was a good night." Summer replied and smiled looking at Zack.
Zack smiled back and wrapped his arm around the back of her neck. When Seth noticed, he did the same with Alex.
Ryan and Marissa were sitting back watching everything.
Zack started whispering in Summers ear making Summer laugh. Seth wanted to up do Zack so he started kissing Alex's neck while quietly making her laugh.
Marissa watched a little longer at the two couples and go up, "YOu know what, I can't take any more of this. Ryan I'm going to bed."
Marissa left the room, her exit caused the two couples to stop what they were doing. Ryan sat awkwardly among them not knowing what to say.
"Actually I think we should go, come on Zack." Summer said and stood up, "Thanks Chino for letting us come over."
Summer and Zack quickly disappeared through the door leaving Ryan, Alex and Seth alone.
"So I'm going up to bed." Ryan said standing up, "Sorry Seth, I didn't know they'd be here when you got home."
"Yeah." Seth said.
It was obvious Seth didn't like seeing Summer with someone else and Ryan felt bad but there wasn't anything he could do right then to fix the situation.
"So..uh...good night." Ryan said and headed up to his room.
"So maybe I should go home?" Alex suggested.
"You don't have to, we could..um..watch that movie RYan had." Seth replied.
Alex debated it but agreed.
Ryan headed upstairs, he went into the bathroom to brush his teeth before he went into the bedroom. When he finally made it into the room, Marissa was back on to him witht he tv on. Ryan assumed she was asleep so he removed his clothes leaving his boxers on and crawled into bed beside her. Ryan leaned over and kissed the side of her head before laying his head down on the pillow.
Marissa rolled over and looked at him, "Hey."
"Hey I thought you were asleep." Ryan whispered.
"No, I was waiting for you to come to bed. I thought you'd be longer though." Marissa replied.
"No, I couldn't take much more either." Ryan laughed.
"So the four of them are still downstairs?" Marissa asked.
"No, Summer and Zack left just after you came up here. I think Seth's made a me though." Ryan replied cuddling up to her.
"Really? I'll tell him it was my idea, I don't want him to be made at you because of Summer." Marissa said sincerely.
"Don't worry about it, you know what Seth's like." Ryan replied.
"So..." Marissa said and leaned in to kiss him.
"So..." Ryan replied smiling at her.
"The Cohen's aren't home." Marissa stated.
Ryan laughed, "Nope they are not."
"We don't have to worry about getting in trouble." Marissa said and kissed him again.
Ryan pulled Marissa ontop of him and kissed her but they were interrupted by Seth barging in on them.
"Oh sorry, I uh...should go." Seth said but stood where he was and didn't move.
Marissa got off of Ryan and Ryan looked over at Seth, "What is it?"
"Alex and I are ordering some food. We thought you two might be hungry." Seth said, "Again....sorry."
"Actually Ryan, I'm actually a little hungry." Marissa said.
Ryan nodded, "We'll be right down."
Seth finally left the room and Ryan looked over at Marissa and sighed.
"Don't worry Ryan." Marissa said, "We have all night!"
Marissa smiled and got out of bed, throwing the sweater she had on earlier back on.
Marissa went downstairs and Ryan followed not long after.
"So what do you guys want to order, we were thinking Chineese." Alex said.
"What ever, I pretty much like everything and so does Ryan." Marissa replied.
Alex got up and Marissa noticed the tattoos she had. One on her arm, on on the back of her shoulder and she could slightly see the one on her hip by the way she passed Marissa.
"Wow Seth, she's like covered in tatoo's." Marissa said.
"Yeah she's into that stuff. She has a tongue ring and she's mentioned she has them in other places as well." Seth replied.
"Wow, she's like the complete opposite of Summer." Marissa stated not looking for a response.
Alex returned, "Well the ordering is done. It'll be here in about 30 minutes."
"So Alex, do you like Newport?" Ryan asked.
"I uh actually don't live in Newport. I'm renting an apartment just outside of Newport." Alex said.
"Oh, you're renting an apartment?" Marissa asked.
"Yeah I moved out of my parents house, couldn't handle them any longer. You guess should come over some time, we'll all hang out and party, I always have beer in the fridge." Alex suggested.
Ryan and Marissa looked at eachother, "Ahh, yeah maybe."
"So I'm trying to talk Seth into coming to this club with me next weekend, it's in Corona and it's awesome." Alex stated.
"Really, I don't think that's his thing." Ryan said.
"What do you mean, I've partied with the other crowd before." Seth defended/
Marissa and Ryan looked at him, "Sure you have."
"Ok maybe not but I'd like to try." Seth said.
"You two should come, maybe Summer and Zach too." Alex suggested.
"Actually I don't think it's Summer or Zach's scene." Marissa replied.
"Well that's ok, probably better. You guys should come though." Alex said.
"We'll see." Ryan replied.
The food came and everyone enjoyed it. Ryan and Marissa were being amused by how Seth was acting. He was trying to be somebody else, somebody he thought Alex would like him to be.
"So Seth did you tell Alex about your comic books, maybe you should give her one of your starter kits?" Ryan said.
Alex looked over at Seth confused, "You like comic books?"
Seth could tell by the tone in her voice that is was obviously something that she didn't like, "Uh, I was into them. You know the things you do when you're young, like playing magic gatherings."
Alex nodded, "Yeah."
Ryan looked over at Seth and chuckled, "Right."
"Well its getting late and I have to open tomorrow so I should be going, hopefully I see you two at the club next weekend." Alex said and looked over at Seth hoping he would walk her out.
"I'll walk you out." Seth said and followed Alex outside.
"Can you believe him, what's he trying to pull. If she doesn't like him for who he is why go for her." Marissa said looking up at Ryan.
"Yeah, he's claiming he doesn't read comic books or play magic gatherings. He's claiming he's not Seth Cohen." Ryan laughed.
Seth returned back inside and sat down with Marissa and Ryan.
"So is this Seth Cohen returning or the same person who just left?" Marissa asked.
Seth looked at her confused, "What?"
"Come on man, pretending you're not into comic books?" Ryan said.
"Look this is a hard core chick Ryan, if she knows I like comics books she won't be interested in me." Seth replied.
"How do you know unless you tell her." Ryan stated.
