Authors Note: Here is the Seth/Summer action you have been waiting for…Hope you enjoy.


They sat across from each other, both too afraid to speak, but instead attempting to read each others expressions. Seth grabbed Summer's hand and placed it in his. He had told himself to go in there, be a hard ass, pissed off because Summer had kept this huge secret from him, but as soon as he had seen her the ice melted away from his heart. She had been through a lot and picking a fight with her would not be good idea. Seth then realized that Summer didn't know that he knew she had been pregnant. She didn't even know that he had been with their daughter. Unable to take the awkwardness, Summer finally spoke up.

"Seth….I don't know how to say this…."

"Say what?" Seth acted dumb because he wanted to hear Summer tell him.

"I am here…in the hospital…well….because I went into labor prematurely. I was pregnant."

Though he already knew, hearing it made a reality for Seth and it hit him hard. He wasn't speaking and this freaked out Summer.

"I know that I should have told you, but I was scared….I am so sorry….We have a little girl…she's got your curls."

"I know…" Summer became confused quickly.

"What do you mean you know. You can't, unless someone told you. Who was it, who told you…?"

"No one told me….I found out on my own. She is beautiful…her hands are so tiny."

Summer was getting a little choked up, "You saw her…but how?"

"When I woke up earlier my mom was gone. I went searching for her and stumbled upon the NICU. I looked through the glass window scanning each of the babies and admiring how cute they were. Then my eyes caught a tag that said Cohen…."

Summer was starting to understand, "Oh about that…."

Seth reassuringly grabbed her hand and continued his story, "I wasn't sure if she had anything to do with me, so I fed the nurse a story and she got the birth certificate. She confirmed that she was my daughter and I went in to visit her. As soon as I saw the curls I knew she was mine. And those eyes, she has your eyes you know."

Summer was wiping away the tears falling from her eyes. She hadn't expected Seth to react this well to the baby, "I know she does, but it's gonna be that curly hair that everyone recognizes…"

Seth felt like the weight had been lifted off his shoulders, "What can I say…it seems my little girl has good genes."

Summer laughed at this remark, but she still felt guilty, "Seth I should have told you….I feel like you missed out something so important in our lives…"

"I did and I completely agree that you should have told me…so the next time…."

Summer nearly choked, "The next time….uh…. Cohen I think one is enough for now."

Seth grabbed Summer by the shoulders and laid back with her in the bed. He used one hand imagining a screen in front of them.

He pointed, "Just imagine now, that's me and there is you. And look our two girls running around in the backyard…"

"Two girls…eh I like this vision…"

"But notice that bump in your stomach, that's Seth Jr. kicking around in there."

"Cohen, we are not naming our son, Seth Jr…"

Seth pointed to Summer, "Ha…so we are having a son…"

"Cohen I didn't…."

Before she could finish, Seth had his mouth upon hers and they kissed passionately with all the love that had been pent up inside for the last seven months. His hands were roaming around her body, when they heard a cough at the door. Marissa was standing in the entrance way with a huge smile plastered on her face.

"Seth, glad you could make it home. I hope I wasn't disturbing." She knew she had, but oh well.

Seth got up the bed, straightening his shirt, "Uh… not at all. What are those in your hand?" He pointed to something Marissa was carrying.

"This is your bracelet daddy…the nurse asked me to give it to you. She didn't want to disturb."

Summer sat up in bed, "So, did Kirsten go home?"

At that moment Kirsten meandered into the room, with a wheelchair in front of her.

"Summer, why would I go home? I don't want to miss seeing my granddaughter."

She patted her hand on the wheelchair seat, "Come on Mommy…let's go see that baby of yours."

Summer obliged and got into the wheelchair. Marissa volunteered to push and they were about to leave when Kirsten turned around.

"Seth, aren't you coming?"

"Uh…uh…I"

Impatient because she wanted to see her daughter Summer snipped, "Seth has already seen her…."

Both Marissa and Kirsten moaned, "Seth…" as they walked out the door.

He followed behind, shrugging his shoulders. "What…..It's not my fault the hospital layout is so bad…" They just ignored him as they practically ran to the NICU.

Once they had been cleaned and prepared the four made their way towards the incubator. Summer, Marissa and Seth had seen the little girl previously, but this was Kirsten's first time. She covered her mouth and started to cry as she looked at the fragile child.

"Oh…she's beautiful…and look at that hair. Those curls are going to be her trademark. "

Seth looked at his mom, "That's what I was trying to tell Summer, but she wouldn't have any of it." Summer nudged him in the stomach as he finished his sentence.

Marissa was still staring at the incubator, when she realized something.

"Guys…" Summer and Seth's eyes were brought up from the incubator, "Is this child's name going to be Cohen?"

"Of course she's a Cohen…"

"No, I mean as her first name. You guys haven't given her a name."

All four of them stood there attempting to come up with some suggestions. It was Summer who spoke first.

"Gabriella Marie Cohen."

Both Kirsten and Marissa smiled in approval, "We like it…"

Seth just put his arms around Summer's waist, "If that is what you want."

"Do you not like it?"

"No, I like it a lot. We can call her Gabi or whatever she wants to be called. Maybe Marie if she doesn't like her first name. Though I don't think I would ever want to be called Ezekiel, but that's just me."

"Enough rambling Cohen. So I guess we need to fill out the rest of the birth certificate."

Marissa and Kirsten saw an opportunity to leave them with their new child; they took advantage and stepped out of the room.

"Seth, she looks so fragile…I am afraid to touch her."

"Just reach your hand in the hole and rub her hand. She'll probably wake up for you."

Summer reached in and rubbed Gabi's hand. The baby's eyes slowly opened and she started to move her arms. Summer pulled out her hand, afraid to hurt the baby and pulled Seth closer to the incubator.

"Look at our baby girl…her eyes are gonna drive guys wild one day."

"Sum…let's not discuss guys attraction to our daughter until she is of age."

"It's gonna happen some day, so why not talk about it."

"Because I want to freeze this moment, and I don't want this discussion to be part of the memory."

She wrapped her arms around Seth's waist and leaned her head into his shoulder, "Okay…I have another secret."

"There's another baby floating around here that belongs to us, isn't there? I knew Seth Jr. is crying around here somewhere."

She gave him a little nudge, "No you dumbass…I love you."

"Oh…that secret. That kinda is my secret too."

Summer didn't catch on, "You have a secret."

Seth just chuckled at his girlfriend, "I love you too, Sum."

It looked as if a light had gone off in Summer's brain, "Oh…I get it now."

"I figured it wouldn't take you that long. You are a semi-bright girl."

"Hey…I think the events that have taken place recently definitely defeat the idea that I am a girl. You are looking at an official woman."

"I would have to agree." He looked at her daughter, "It's pretty amazing what we created isn't it."

Summer looked at him, then at her daughter, "Yeah…I would have to say it is."


Author's Note: So what did you think? Reviews are awesome. I am pretty sure that I will continue the story because they need to get married, well they don't need to, but I think that the evolution of their relationship has come to that point. That being said it might be a few days before the next update, because I need to sort through different ideas in my brain, in terms of the direction of the story.
