He stopped and looked into her eyes. "I missed you too...everyday." He gazed down at her, taking in all the feelings that flowed between them. Marissa was truly unlike anyone he'd ever met before. She was familiar and dangerous, sweet and passionate, unpredictable and certain, and in that he found a sense of security. As she looked up at him, he saw the trust he'd always wanted from her and innocence that surprised him. She didn't say it, but she didn't have to. I love you.

He continued to kiss her softly. They met up at eachother's lips. The kiss became more passionate. But had to end, because of the phone. But of course they did not want it to end.

"Hello", Ryan said.

"Hi this is an automated message from"

Ryan quickly hung up and just fell on his bed. Marissa stared at him confused. Is this wrong? I mean, what am I doing? She thought to herself. Not knowing, Ryan was thinking the same thing.Even though it wasn't their first tme being together, it felt that way. Marissa got up, and said, "Maybe I should go...um...into the Cohen's house". Ryan stood up, and walked to Marissa, and kissed her goodbye.Ryan put his hands on his head.

What am I doing? I mean, I want this real bad, and I... just want it to be perfect. Am I not ready? I love Marissa, isn't that enough?He walked to his bed, and just layed there, like nothing existed.

Flashback:

"hey man, watcha doing?"

"Hey Seth, nothing, just thinking"

"about..."

"Me and Marissa. Like, we've gotten closer, and I just want to ...I don't know. Maybe just...y'know."

"Get back together?"

"I don't know, is it wrong? Like we get along, and we've been together before, and maybe, like, that was great. Do you think she wants to? I mean...Get beack together?"

"I don't know man, Summer says, she doesn't talk about it, but she knows she feels the same way."

"Do you miss her?"

"I think about her all the time, since Lindsay left. Like, she's hard to forget, and than the Bonfire, and y'a know?"

"Sounds like someone's in love all over again."

Flashback ended"

Ryan go up once again, and just walked over to the Cohen's house, and found Marissa just sitting on the couch, just sitting alone, and it looked like she was remembering. He knocked on the door. And she looked back.

"Oh, hey, Seth and Summer are upstairs, talking. They said they'd get down here after they finish talking."

"Cool, um... can we talk?"

"Sure, what's it about?"

"The poolhouse, like, what happened there? I know we said that we'd take it slow, and that we waited a long time for it, but after that phone call, what happened?"

"I don't know, I just sort of paniced. It has been a long time since we got that far, and believe me, I've wanted it for so long, but I guess we should just kinda slow it down more."

"Maybe, but Marissa, we've waited a long time for this, and I know you love me, just as much as I love you. I just don't know what's happening. I want to be with you so much, but"

"Listen, Ryan I know you love, and I love you, I just don't know what's happening. I just felt like"

Ryan cut her off with a passionate kiss. Marissa put her hand his cheek, and Ryan layed his hands on her slender back. They started moving closer together, and it was like they never even has their conversation. Marissa missed his lips touching hers, and missed his hands touching her. She loved this, she wanted nothing else than his hand wrapped around her body, she wanted him to never let go.

Ryan also missed her tender kisses. He loved Marissa more than anything in the world. They both never wanted to stop kissing. Seth and Summer started walking down the stairs, finding Ryan and Marissa kissing. They were so happy for them. They both knew they were going to be together again, but didn't want to force them. Seth cleared his throat, and Marissa pulled back.

"It's not what you think," Marissa quickly said.

"It's alright, don't worry, we're not going to criticize"

"Just stop talking, and let's watch some t.v."

Ryan put his around Marissa, and she rested her head on Ryan's shoulder. It was the Fabolous Four reunited once again as couples. But will it last?
