Authors note: I am soooo sry that I haven't updated. I started ninth grade and that added a whole crap load of work that I didn't expect. I'm UPDATING! For the first time in forever! I know this doesn't go along with any of the current plot lines. But the show changes to fast to keep up! loll!

BTW to answer some questions: Seth and Summer are together, Anna is dating some guy at her work.

Ryan sat on the couch with Marissa watching TV, the two of the were snuggled up (at Ryan's apartment) with Evie. They were watching some weird sci fi movie.
Evie's choice, of course.

Ryan and Marissa kept exchanging glances, and were holding hands. It was just like in High School.

When the movie ended Ryan got up from the couch

"Time for bed" Evie crossed her arms and leaned into her mother.

"I don't wanna" she pouted.

"I don't care if you want to or not, its time for bed. We let you stay up later then usual. And now its time for bed" Ryan said patiently.

"MOMMY! Don't make me!"

"Sweets I'm gonna have to agree with your dad. You need to go to bed."

Evie got up and looked at her mom like she was a traitor.

"FINE!" and stormed off to her room, they were at Marissa's.

"That went well, don't you think?" Marissa said dryly.

"Very"

"She really does like having you around," Marissa said as Ryan sat back down on the couch and put an arm around her.

"I know," He murmured into her hair.

"Mmmm"

"You know… I've been thinking." Ryan trailed off

"What?"

"Maybe we should get married."

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah why not…. I mean we have a kid together. And we love each other…" he blurted out.

Marissa stared at him,

"Ok." she ended.

"I mean… I don't know how you feel. But I'm still in love with you. I never stopped being in love with you in fact." Ryan looked shy.

"Ryan I still love you. But I don't know if we should get married. The arrangement right now works just fine."

"OK so your telling me that your daughter having FOUR bedrooms is ok?"

"Well it's not the BEST thing. But it could be worse."

"Of course it could be worse. But give me ONE reason why we shouldn't get married and I'll drop it and NEVER ask you again" Ryan's eye's burned with fear.

"I…" Marissa stuttered. "I cant"

Ryan brightened,

"So we're gonna get married?"

"Yes."

"WOOO!" Came from the hallway, a few seconds later something flipped over the couch and hit both of the adults and hugged them "THIS IS SO COOL!" Evie hugged her parents tightly. They laughed.

"Does this still mean I have to go to bed?" Evie asked sweetly.

Ryan looked at Marissa.

"No. You can stay up. We're gonna go call Seth and the girls."

"YES!"

They all went out that night (it was Friday) and had a celebration dessert run.

The next day, Ryan and Marissa went shopping for a ring, but decided that they didn't want to be engaged for very long. So they went to a wedding planners office instead.

They planned their wedding for two weeks away. The wedding planner said it would be tight, but it was possible.

The two got home and phoned their familys to invite them to the wedding.

The wedding was beautiful, and sweet, Marissa wore an off white strapless dress. And Ryan a Tux, Evelyn wore a beautiful rose colored JR bridesmaid dress and Summer and Anna wore matching bridesmaid dresses, Summer was her maid of honor.

Marissa's step father Caleb flew everyone who went to the wedding back to the OC and had the reception there. Then the couple flew off to Paris for their honey moon. Leaving Evelyn with her different sets of grandparents.

A year after the wedding their second daughter was born, Allison Atwood.

And as corny as this sounds they really did live happily ever after.
