The Date Part II

Seth POV

You sat in the car for a minute, collecting your thoughts. You were so nervous. Taking a deep breath, you left the car, each step twards the door more terrifying than the last. After what seemed like a lifetime, you reached the stoop. The door opened before you could even give yourself a pep talk. There was Summer, she looked gorgeous, her long wavy hair was pulled back in a low messy pony tail, she was wearing long faded jeans, and a tiny white tank top with a navy blue little shrug.

You were in awe, but managed to squeek out "you look ho- nice" she smiled, "likewise Cohen" you took a deep breath, confidant that this night wouldnt be soo bad. . .

You were wrong, greeted at the Crab Shack by no other than Liz and Luke. This is gonna be awkward you thought, so very awkward.

"Oh hey Seth. . . Summer" Liz said, her voice growing icy. "looks like you got over me pretty quick, but i thought you had good taste, i guess- "O hey man, we were just uhh leaving" Luke says as he grabs Liz's elbow and guides her out the door.

"Well that was um. . . horrible" You say trying to fill the awkward silence. "Jesus, i hate her" Summer said completely suprising you. "She thinks she's so damn special" you chuckled, "I love angry Summer, its just so very entertaining." she laughs "Well your not having all the fun, i love uncomfortable Cohen, when you blush, and start rambling, its high class entertainment" she says with a big smile. You feel the color rise to your cheecks "well, i dont think you get to see that side of me very often, cuz well , hmm you know that i'm very smooth, like peanut butter, the smooth kind obviously not the chunky, never was a fan of the chunky pb, ya know it just kinda sticks to the roof of your mouth and-" you stopped when Summer began to laugh loudly. "God, I missed that" she said softly.

The rest of your dinner, went smoothly, and soon you were back at your house to watch the movie. You had popped some popcorn and brought over some soda and chips, to the living room to see Summer, all wrapped up in a blanket looking comfortable. Sitting down at the other end of the couch, she gives you a wierd look. "Don't be silly cohen, I'll make room. . ."

This was heaven you thought to yourself. Summer was leaning up against your chest and you had your arms around her. The movie ended, and you both sat, not moving until all the credits were shown and the screen went black. For about 5 minutes, you sat there completely content. "I missed this" Summer says softly, and looking up at you with her big brown eyes. "I missed you" you responded, she sighed, i know, everything is well. . . different now, and not a good different"

You smile, almost at ease, that she felt the same. He mustered up his courage, and said "Summer, that day, you know the wedding, I pretended. . . pretended like it didnt bother me. But in all reality, I was devastated, and I tried to hide it ya know. I went to Portland to sort out all my feelings, there were girls there, i'm not gonna lie, but none of them, held a candle to you. I felt . . . . I felt empty, but when you're with me, I feel alive invincable, ya know. You complete me" you take a deep breath, hoping that she wasnt angry, incredibly nervous about what she was going to say. She looked at you, her deep choclately eyes, full of emotion.

"You were right though Seth, I wasn't making my own opinions, I realized that, when i got your email, I would have done anything to have the plane turn around, just so I could apologize. Then I was at a concert of one of my dad's clients Jack Johnson (made up! fictional actions right now) and I just poured my heart out, thats when he wrote that song. The last night though I told you i was with some guys, that was a lie, i was trying to make myself feel better, by hurting you. I'm so sorry Cohen, If I could change it I would"

You were touched by what she had said, and you feel into a silence, "I never stopped loving you Summer" she looks up and smiles, "I never stopped loving you either Cohen" Slowly you lean forward, time slows, the air crackles with the electricity between the both of you. The moment your lips met, fire works exploded. All the emotions you had felt over the past couple months, were poured into the kiss, most definately the most passionate thing you have ever experianced. As you pulled away summer had a dazed look in her eyes, "wow" she said softly and out of breath.

After a minute you looked at her "So where does this leave us, Summer?" you were nevous for her answer but you needed to know. "Honestly Cohen, I don't know, I mean I love you more than words, but I just need to time to think, I don't want to hurt you again" you saw the desperation in her eyes "I will wait for you Summer, take your time" "God Seth, why do you have to be so sweet, here I have a plan are you ready for it?" she continued once you nodded your head. "Unless your going with the uber bitch Liz, take me to the homecoming dance, and I'll have your answer by the time King and Queen are announced." you smile, pleased at her plan. "Sounds great" you say, kissing her on the cheek. You sat there staring at her, thinking about how lucky you were.
