Chapter 2

Seth skateboarded down the street toward Summer's house, when he finally got there he walked up to her door, he hesitated before knocking he knocked lightly on the door…He then just realized…Summer's father hadn't admired the way he knocked on someone's door…Her father had told him that he knocked like a chick. So, he knocked again, louder this time. He waited patiently for someone to answer the door…He was hoping that Zach wasn't there. Because if he was…Everything would be ruined.

Summer sat up in her room watching TV…The Valley was on…There was a marathon on today…Zach had agreed to come over and watch it with her. As long as tonight the two of them could watch "Spiderman" He had rented the DVD…She didn't exactly mind because Toby McGuire was pretty hot. She heard knocking coming from downstairs. She sat up and hopped off her bed starting downstairs…She figured it was Zach sense he was coming over…She walked downstairs opening the door and was shocked to come face to face with… "Cohen? What are you doing here…At my house?" She asked slightly confused.

Seth smiled when she opened the door. "Hey Summer…Yeah nice to see you too." he said with a slight eye roll. He then walked passed her and into her house. "Look, we need to talk." He told her as he looked around her house. "Did you guys redecorate or something the place looks good…" He stated as he looked around the house…

Summer sighed. "Cohen…You could have at least waited till I invited you in…God rude much." She said as she shut the door turning to him. "Talk? Talk about what?" She asked confusingly, she stood there with her hands on her hips. "Yeah, actually we did…My step-monster decided to change the house around…Again."

Seth then cringed slightly. "Your step-mom? Okay…I take all of the nice complements back…It looks terrible…" He said…

Summer rolled her eyes. "Yeah…Yeah…Enough about the house, Cohen. What did you come here to talk to me about?" She asked curiously as she removed her hands from her hips and let them drop to her sides.

Seth looked at her confused. "Huh?" He asked…Then it came to him… "Oh, yeah. Right. Well, I came here to talk about us. Look, Summer…Before you say anything…I know I hurt you…A' lot and you have Zach now, and I mean don't get me wrong. Zach is great. But…I'm really…REALLY…jealous of him…Jealous of what he has…And that something is you Summer. I love you…I always will. You're all I thought about all summer when I was away. And you're still all I think about now. You just have to tell me one thing…Do you feel for me what I feel for you…At all?" He asked hoping for a 'yes' or some kind of statement that we make him happy…

Summer stood there staring at Seth hanging on to every word he had to say to her. What he said really touched her…Seth loved her. But she had disappointing news for him… "I'm sorry Cohen…But I don't feel anything…But friendship." She couldn't believe it. She just completely lied right to Seth's face. She did love Seth…But she also loved Zach…So…What was she to do now? She loved them both…She had to choose one of them. But not today, right? She figured she could maybe sleep on it and decide in the morning. Oh, who was she kidding? She didn't love Seth…She couldn't love Seth…Could she?

Seth looked down, feeling hurt by her words…He got shut down…Like usual. He was upset…He didn't understand why though. He was used to getting turned down my woman…he was known for it. He nodded slightly to Summer's response. "Thanks." He said quietly. "Uh…Good luck with Zach…I'm gonna…Go." he said smiling slightly. He walked by her and opened the door walking out…He put his skateboard down on the ground and skateboarded out of Summer's yard…Away from her house…

Summer bit her lip…She could tell by the look on Seth's face that she had hurt his feelings. She felt bad…But it was the right thing to do for now…Right? Of course it was…She knew what she was doing…She was doing the right thing…Okay, maybe she felt terrible about it. But doing the right thing doesn't always feel good. She sighed, she then heard another knock on the door…Maybe Seth came back. Now was her chance to apologize! She rushed toward the door and opened it quickly.

Zach stood in front of Summer, a smile on his face. "Hey." He said as he pecked her a kiss on the lips. "So, you ready to watch that The Valley marathon? I figure the sooner we watch it…The sooner we get it over with and we can watch Spiderman." He explained with a grin.

Summer smiled. "Oh, hey." She said…She was really hoping to see Seth standing at her door. But it was only Zach…Wait a minute only Zach…What was wrong with her? She couldn't possibly be getting stronger feelings for Cohen then she did for Zach…That could never happen, right? Right now all she needed to do was get Cohen off her mind. "Yeah, right. The Valley. Let's go up to my room." She said with a smile as she took Zach's hand, leading him upstairs. Now she would be alone with Zach. This was her chance to get over Seth…….
