Hey guys, I realised I've keened up abit with lot's of Summer/Ryan in the last couple of chapters. I'll try and add some more Anna/Seth and some Alex/Marissa (been missing for like 5 chapters) for any fans out there. Sorry again, I just love Summer and Ryan together so much !
P.S Just a question, there's two different styles I could write the story in. There's the 'movie script' sort of writing which I've used so far -
Ryan: Blah blah
Summer: Blah blah blah
Or I could do it like this -
"I LOVE YOU ELIZA" Ronald screamed at the top of his lungs. Hoping that his voice would carry across the field. "I LOVE YOU TOO RONALD" Eliza screamed back as the two ran for one another's arm's.
I think the 'movie script' way makes following the story and what the characters are saying easier, but it's easier to describe character's emotions/movement with the second system. Any comments would be much appreciated and alot of help aswell.

It was 11pm. Summer had gone home after Ryan and her had finished 'playing' and Ryan was slowly assailing the stairs to Seth's room. With a quick knock Ryan pushed open Seth's door.
Ryan: Hey man, I'm going to throw some Tony Hawk on. You up for a game ?
Seth's head popped out from behind the wall infront of Ryan.
Seth: Yeah man, let's do this.
An uneasy silence followed the pair as they walked to the poolhouse, 'Seth's awfully quiet' Ryan thought.
Ryan: Look man, about before. I hope I didn't...
Seth: Nah man, don't worry. It's just Anna... Well she's not as easy going as you or I.
Ryan: So she was pretty upset.
Seth: Well it's really a two part problem really.
Seth: You see, firstly there's the part where I yelled at her.
Ryan: During sex ?
Seth: No, the after part. I don't know, it was an emotional time for everyone and I got a little frustrated.
Ryan: So you called her and sorted everything out yeah ?
Seth: Not exactly.
Ryan: Oh.
Seth: And then there was the part when I called her Summer.
Ryan: Oh you didn't. You called her Summer when you were having sex.
Seth: Yeah, but firstly man it's not because I still have feelings for Summer. Because I like totally don't at all, you have 100 nothing to worry about. It's just I'm used to Summer being the one... you know.
Ryan felt like running away screaming but he somehow managed to keep still.
Ryan: I'm cool with talking to you about your... feelings. But even we've got boundaries.
Seth: I know man. But, I'm fucked arn't I.
Ryan: Yeah, you kind of are.
Seth: Is there anything I can do... maybe.
Ryan: Well, if it was Anna's first time and she heard you, then you're definatly fucked. But if it wasn't her first time or she didn't hear you then you might be okay.
Seth made a mental note of the information and formulated a 'gp' for the next day.
Seth: Alright GP.
Ryan: Good Point ?
Seth: Game plan. Go over to Anna's tomorrow, get the lowdown, make the apologies, beg for forgiveness, take her to Bright Eyes.
Ryan: Sounds good man. Now, playstation.
Seth: Roger.

Marissa glanced up at the window's to make sure someone was home, and awake. She was standing outside Summer's house, it was time to confront her about Ryan and... maybe tell her about Alex. Not alot had occured between them in the last couple of hour's, after finding out that Summer was okay they had spent the afternoon hanging out at Marissa's opting not to attend the charity gala afterparty. Marissa wanted to talk to Summer alone and she wasn't sure about going out with Alex in public yet, she wasn't really sure of anything yet. Alex had been totally cool with it, telling Marissa that if what had occured never occured again she was cool, but if Marissa wanted something more... to call Alex. Marissa didn't know what to do and she hoping that maybe, just maybe, Summer might be able to help.
Marissa knocked twice on the door and then rung the doorbell (just incase Summer was upstairs), it was several moments before she heard the patter of feet on the floor, as the door opened Marissa could hear Summer's voice on the other side.
Summer: Ry...isa... Marissa.
Marissa: Hey Sum, can I come in ?
Summer: You're not still angry at me are you coop, like you're not going to come in and kill me.
Laughing Marissa entered Summer's entrance hall.
Marissa: Suprisingly, the last thing I want to talk about is you and Ryan...
Summer: Oh.
Marissa: So, how are you feeling ? Everything better now ? Don't tell anyone but after my 'accident' I couldn't stop going to the toilet.
Summer: The doctor gave me some drugs to take and I've got an apointment with a psychologist within the next couple of days. But I'm alright for the time being.
Marissa: So your Dad pulled some strings to get you out of the hospital so quick ?
Summer began to glance down at her feet. She suddenly understood why it was she had been released so early.
Summer: Well I guess, you know, it could of been bad for his reputation or something.
Marissa reached over and put a reassuringly hand on her best friend's shoulder.
Marissa: Parent's can get a little crazy when they're worried about their kid's.
Summer smiled awkwardly back at Marissa. Marissa seemed so happy, 'what the hell was going on', she thought.
Summer: Anyway, let's get the hell out of the hallway. Are you staying the night ?
Marissa: Would that be okay ?
Summer: Well it's not like there's anyone around to dissagree.
Marissa: Your step-mum ?
Summer: She took off to find Daddy after the accident, I think I'm in big trouble when he get's back.
Marissa: Well I'll be your company until then.
Suddenly Summer couldn't take it anymore, she ran forward and wrapped her arm's around Marissa hugging her.
Summer: Coop, I know it's been like a day. But I've missed you SOO MUCH! I thought we were never going to be friends again.
Marissa: Hey, it's alright. Best friends for life remember.
Summer: Totally.
Marissa: Anyway, weren't we going upstairs ? Tell me all about this party!

After walking up to Summer's room, Summer began to fill Marissa in with all the details of her night (except Ryan details) and the two were soon laughin at Seth and Anna's misfortune.
Marissa: Seth's quite the mover and shaker these days. Anna only got back yesterday, that's pretty quick.
Summer instantly felt awkward and took her gaze away from Marissa's eyes.
Summer: Well I guess if you know it's right, it's right.
Marissa: Speaking of which I've got something pretty important to tell you. But before I do, you have to promise that you won't think of me any differently.
Summer: I'm always here for you Coop, no matter what.
Marissa: Okay, well I kind of kissed a chick last night.
Summer: Holly had a party ? I didn't know you forgave her for what happened with Luke.
Marissa: No... You remember Alex ?
Summer: The chick who dated Cohen, basically kicked me out of your house. Yeah I remember.
Marissa: I sort of kissed her.
Summer: I guess you must of got pretty wasted after hearing about me and Ryan.
Marissa: I was sober.
Summer: Ohhh...
Marissa: Yeah... I kissed her quite a few times actually, like the entire night...
Summer: Oooooohhh...
Summer couldn't help but be embarassed, she too had kissed girl's before but knew she Marissa was saying this time was different.
Summer: So you're um... attracted... to this Alex chick ?
Marissa: I think so. She's been in... relationships... with girl's before.
Summer: So she's a lesbian.
Marissa: Well yeah, I guess.
Summer: And you're ?
Marissa: Really confused.
Summer: I don't really know if I'm able to give you advice on this sort of situation Coop.
Marissa: I know it's weird, but could you please try.
Summer looked up into Marissa's pleading eye's. Trying not to shudder she continued on.
Summer: So, what exactly is the problem.
Marissa: Well I think she wants to, you know, date.
Summer: What be girlfriend and girlfriend.
Marissa: Well yeah.
Summer: And do you want that ?
Marissa: I don't know.
Summer: Well maybe you need to spend more time together. Doing what ever it is... you do.
A sharp chill flew down Summer's spine, the image of two girls 'doing it' made her want to vomit.
Marissa: I'm sorry Sum, maybe I shouldn't have told you.
Summer: No, it's okay. What are best friends for.
She managed a weak smile for Marissa before making it known she was tired and ready for bed.
Marissa: So maybe I should sleep in one of the guest rooms.
Summer: Hey, don't be stupid. You can stay here, we've been friends for ages and you've never tried anything... except that one time at Holly's. Look it's fine, we both stay on our own side's on the bed, nothing goes wrong.
Marissa: Thanks Sum. For being so understanding,
Summer: And you too Coop, with Ryan and everything.
Marissa: I guess you understand now why I wasn't too upset.
Summer: Yeah, I guess I do.
