Disclaimer : It would be awesome to own The O.C. I can only imagine. So, ask Josh Schwartz – he's the creator of The O.C.

Chapter 12 – Good Old Times

That was really cool dream! Oh, wait, is that Summer next to me? So, it wasn't a dream. It's real! And look at her. She's perfect. My Summer. At least I hope she's mine again. I hope we're ok. I mean, she said we are, but you never know with Summer and her rage blackouts. All I know is that I won't let myself loose her again. It was too much, too painful. I shouldn't think about it now. I wonder if there are other people who talk with themselves like I do... I sometimes feel like a lunatic... Maybe I should stop. Who am I kidding? It's me, Seth Cohen, king of rambling, talking to Captain Oats and sarcasm. And probably self-absorbed freak as well, but loved self-absorbed freak, so it's all that matters now. I just hope she'll not ran away and stop talking to this self-absorbed rambling weirdo when she wakes up. Did I mention how perfect she is?

I haven't slept so well since... since I've last time slept with Cohen. Wait a sec, I did sleep with Cohen last night. And it felt so good. And now, I'm in his arms and I'm so happy. Cohen, I love you. I do. But I'm so not saying that out loud. Well, not yet. God, I missed this smell of his. It really feels like home. I belong here, in his arms. I've never felt so protected, so loved.

She opened her eyes and looked up at him. He grinned and she grinned back. Then she put her arms around his waist and came closer to him, resting her head on his chest again.

My perfect Summer wants this rambling weirdo back. Yeah, she does. I don't know how we came to this, but I don't care. We're together and I love her more then anything and I can finally say I'm home. For good.

He's perfect. He is Seth Cohen and he is rambling and he is emo geek and he is much more. But he's my Seth Cohen. With his jew-fro and his dimples and his amazing brown eyes and his comic-books – correction – graphic novels and everything. And I won't let him go away from me again.

She looked up again and smiled.

"Are you gonna wish me good morning or what?" she said.

"Good morning sleepy head."

"Sleepy head? I thought that you'd have some better pet name for me."

"Well, I wanted to say beauty, but sleepy head seemed better."

"Why didn't you wake me earlier?"

"I didn't want to, you looked... amazing..." she blushed and it was strange considering that they had such a history and he said that so many times. Somehow it never gets old. He continued "I know, I keep using that word, but I can't think of any better. You are amazing."

"You are too." She looked at him and for the first time he looked better at her eyes and saw it there. She loves me. He smiled and kissed her. Now that, that also never gets old, Cohen. I think I could spend my life kissing you.

She broke a kiss and he watched her getting up and taking her stuff.

"Let's see what Coop and Chino are doing." She said cheerfully.

"Aww... and I thought that we could spend day in bed. Now, that would be awesome!" he answered but she already was on her way to bathroom.

"Yeah, that would be awesome, but not now, Cohen. I'm hungry and I want to talk to Coop." she yelled.

He got up putting his pants on quickly and followed her.

"What? About this? About us?"

"Oh, like you don't talk to Ryan."

"Yeah, but it's different. They don't need to know everything."

She smiled.

"I don't tell her every single thing either, you know."

"I guess." He sighed. "Ok, I give up. Let's go downstairs then."

She came to him.

"Oh, but we can take a shower together." She said seductively pulling him into the bathroom with her.

"Good morning guys!" Summer and Seth said almost in unison entering the kitchen, holding hands.

"Morning?" Marissa asked, but Ryan finished.

"It's more like good afternoon, but I guess that good morning will do too."

The two of them were staring at them.

"What?" Summer asked finally when Seth went to the fridge to take some food.

"You two have slept till 3 pm." Marissa asked. "Was there some party last night that we missed?"

"Oh, you missed one hell of the party." Seth laughed.

"But you always do. See what love does to a perfectly normal people?" Summer said turning to Seth.

"They were never normal Sum." Seth shook his head.

"You're right." She laughed nodding.

"Have you been drinking?" Ryan asked. "You're too... cheerful." He looked at them suspiciously.

"We haven't been drinking." Summer said.

"Nope." Seth shook his head.

"You slept in the same bed and you're so happy. I'm missing something." Marissa smiled.

"Oh, we weren't just sleeping." Seth said.

"No, we did so much more." Summer winked at him.

"Oh my god." Ryan said in a small voice and looked away.

"Guys, we don't want details. It's ok." Marissa said quickly.

"Great. Now you know how I... how we feel around you." Summer smiled and kissed Seth.

"Ok, ok, enough." Ryan looked at Marissa laughing.

"Yeah. So, you're back together. That's great!" she smiled and looked back at Ryan. "Ryan, let's go."

"Oh, well, we can all hang out together. What do you say?" Summer quickly said.

"Sure. What do you want to do?" Ryan answered.

"Shopping?"

"You're kidding right?" Ryan asked.

"Don't go there." Seth said quickly.

"Besides it's Sunday." Marissa added.

"Sunday! That's right! Mum and dad are coming home." Seth remembered.

"Today? So quickly." Summer frowned.

"Yeah. But we can always go to your place..." Seth smiled "Your dad's on trip and your step-mom..."

"Step-monster." She interrupted him.

"Right. Step-monster is not home either, right?"

"Right. I like the way you think Cohen." She smiled.

"I know. Hey guys, I'm Cohen again."

"Yey." Ryan said sarcastically.

"Oooh, Ryan's playing the being-funny game. I'm still winning dude."

"Like I could ever forget."

"How about a movie?" Marissa asked.

"Yeah, sure." Seth and Ryan agreed.

"Ok." Summer said following them to the living room.

They sat down, Ryan hugging Marissa and Seth Summer.

I'm really happy they're together again. Summer couldn't deny her feelings forever. She loves Seth. I just hope this will last. And Ryan must be happy, Seth means to him as much as Summer means to me.

I knew it. Summer gave in finally. Seth was devastated without her. He wasn't himself. He scares me sometimes. Well, at least he scared me when Summer wasn't around. I just hope the old Seth is back now.

Look at us. We're all together again. That's cool. It was strange when Coop started dating Chino and even more when I started liking Cohen, but we were always as one. Well, at least until Cohen and Chino left. We'll stay together this time, though.

This is awesome! The fabulous four back in track! Wait. Have I just used the fabulous four and back in track in one sentence? I'm becoming too weird for my own taste. And God knows I like my weirdness. Yeah, weirdo, talking to yourself again. Still... we rock! Yeah, we do. Here I am with my brother, who is also my best friend ever and his girlfriend who happened to be my girlfriend's best friend and my aunt (ok, we really have messed up family, no wonder I'm such a weirdo, I'm the normal one in the family and I've just used word 'weird' like 5 times, including this one) and my girlfriend. I have a girlfriend again and she's Summer Roberts - again. Life can't be better.

Yeah. It felt like good old times again.

A/N – Hey! Thanx for the reviews. Sorry for not uploading for such a long time. I thought it would be nice to write about their thoughts and feelings and Ryan's and Marissa's reaction about that 'new' relationship. I didn't do it that well, though, but we all know that the two of them wish all the luck to Summeth, so… This chapter doesn't have any particular meaning, but it explains their feelings again. More action in next chapter – hopefully. Oh, and someone asked me about Anna. She is in Pitsburg, but is in touch with Seth. That's all I wanted to say. Keep reading and keep reviewing!
