A/N: So this is and idea I got when I read 'The Way We Get By' by waitingtuesday. There Ryan and Seth had switched roles. In this story there is a little bit more role switching and I'm going to paint it up for you now:
Summer: Is the one from Chino who the Cohen's take in

Ryan: Came from Chino a few weeks ago and lives in an apartment. He didn't really know Summer. The rest is almost the same. Summer is a little darker. Seth and Ryan are a little more popular. I'm not sure how this is going to work out so I'm going to write one chapter first and then we will see if I am going to continue it.

The Chino Summer

Chapter 1 – The Arrival

There she was and she had never felt so alone. The public defender in front of her was rambling about school and stuff but she didn't really listen. She caught his name though, Sandy Cohen. He seemed nice but he had no idea how she felt.

"Are you listening at all?"

"What? Oh sorry, I guess my mind drifted away"
"Your grades are pretty good and if you just tried then maybe you could make it in to a college"

"Yeah well I'm not a spoiled rich kid who could eat money for breakfast. I'm from Chino and there you have to do the best of the little you have"

He didn't say anything.

They walked out of the lock up and a car braked in front of them and a woman who looked like a wreck came out.

"Summer what the hell were you thinking? I didn't think you would be so stupid that you started hanging out withy your brother when he stole cars"
"I'm sorry mom I didn't mean too"
"Yeah well I don't care! Get your fat ass in to the car now"
Oh my god, the fact that the girl was freaked and scared now didn't come as a shock anymore. She really needed someone to help her.

"Summer! Here take my card, if you need anything, just call"
She nodded and smiled.

"Summer now, let's go!"

"I don't want you here anymore, you are just trouble Summer"

"What? You are going to kick me out?"
"You have yourself to blame, just get out"
"But where am I supposed to go?"
Her boyfriend jumped in to the conversation.

"She said get out so why don't you pack your stuff little girl"
"I'm not your little girl so just shut up"
"What did you say?" He got up and walked against her. "Maybe I got to teach you how to talk to people before I throw you out?"
"A.J. don't!"
He hit her hard in the face and she fell immediately on the floor.

"Now get the hell out of here"

She grabbed a bag with clothes and rushed out crying, where was she supposed to go now? Wait a minute, that man, Sandy, he told her she could call whenever she wanted. She needed someone to help her. She took the nearest payphone and dialled his number.

He got a call from her about half an hour ago, she sounded pretty devastated. He pulled the car over and saw her. Her face was abused and she had some blood pouring out her nose.
"What happened?"
"I don't really want to talk about it, I just need some help"
"Okay, well you better get in then"
"Thank you Mr. Cohen"
"Please call me Sandy. Mr. Cohen sounds so important"
They drove in almost complete silence towards Newport and only a few words were spoken. When he pulled in to their driveway she was shocked by the house.

"I need to talk with my wife first so why don't you wait here" He began to move out of the car and then thought of the car keys and looked at them.

"I don't know how to drive"
He was relieved and got out. This girl was sweet, she obviously had some trust issues and didn't know how to get through this world but she just needed someone to help her. Hopefully Kirsten would understand.

She walked down to the end of the driveway and grabbed a smoke. It was a really nice house and she liked Mr. Cohen, Sandy. Suddenly she saw a beautiful girl standing at the neighbour's house and she seemed to have noticed Summer too.

"Hey who are you?"
"I was just about to ask you"

"Okay easy, I'm Marissa, I live next door"
"Sorry, um I'm Summer"
"You came here with Sandy?" She nodded. "Okay, why?"
"I was in trouble and he helped me get out of it and then I needed somewhere to go"
"Okay, what kind of trouble if you don't mind me asking"
"My brother stole a car and I were in the car with him when we got caught"
Sandy walked down.

"Hey put that out, no smoking if you are going in with me. Hey Marissa!"
"Hey, so I just met Summer here, she seems nice"
"Yeah I thought so too"
"Hey I'm standing right here, you know hearing you talking about me"
"Sorry, so why don't you come up with me now"
They walked up and a black car came and picked up Marissa. The house was even bigger when you got close.

"Hey you must me Summer" A beautiful woman came forward and greeted her. "I'm Kirsten, the queen of the house"
"Hello very nice to meet you, and very nice to let me stay here"
"Its okay, I'm sure you are a nice girl. You can stay in the pool house right outside on the porch"

"Thanks, I'm going to sleep then, I am pretty tired if that is okay?"
"Yeah of course, hope the pool house is fine"

She walked in to the pool house and looked around. It was fantastic, she had no idea how it felt to live this.

"But I guess I will never have the chance to find out either"

She lay down on the bed and drifted to sleep.

So how do you like it? I am pretty satisfied with it but I would like to know your opinion as well. Read and Review!
