Chapter Three

Now Summer, Seth, Ryan, and Marissa were sitting in the pool house. Ryan was sitting on the bed with Marissa in his arms. Seth went over to Summer and put his arms around her the same way Ryan had his arms around Marissa.

"Summer… I'm really sorry and I swear I will never do it again." She turned around and he gave her one of the saddest looks he had.

Summer couldn't resist and said, "Okay Cohen. I forgive you." She hugged him.

Seth looked so grateful for his puppy eyed looks. Then he felt something vibrate in his pocket.

"Hold on, Summer, someone's calling me on my cell phone."

Summer watched him pull his cell phone out of his pocket and answer it.

"Hello… Oh hey… Yeah… This is Seth… So wh-"

Summer grabbed his cell phone. "Girl, you better stay away from Cohen, and don't call hi- Oh, hi Luke." She gave the phone back to Seth, feeling dumb.

Seth talked to Luke for a while and then hung up. He looked at Summer and started laughing. "I'm never going to let you live that down!"

Summer just rolled her eyes, but then Seth stopped laughing and answered his cell phone again. She didn't bother to grab it again in case it was someone else besides Corsilla and went back to talking to Marissa.

Seth turned around. "Hi… No, it's okay really. Summer? She's my girlfriend. She's not all that mad…"

Summer couldn't help but overhear. She grabbed the cell phone and screamed, "Hey Cursilla or Corsilla whatever your name is, don't call Seth anymore. No one wants you around anyways."

"Actually I think-" He was silenced by the glare she sent him.

"So don't call here anymore!" She hung up.

She gave the phone back to Seth. He looked at it and saw Corsilla's number from where she called from on there. He added it to his phonebook and put the cell phone back in his pocket. Summer started walking out of the pool house, stopping in the door way and turned to Seth and said, "Don't bother to chase after me Cohen." with tears in her eyes. Seth tried to talk but couldn't. He flopped onto the bed and just laid there. Marissa looked at Ryan and whispered, "Ryan, I think you should talk to him."

"Yeah."

"Bye, I'll see you Saturday."

"Okay, I'll call you to tell you what time I'll pick you up." He kissed her and she left the pool house towards home.

\

"So, Seth, you and Summer."

Seth sat up, "I don't know what I did to make her that mad. I mean Zack calls her cell phone sometimes during our date but I don't say anything, Ryan, man, you've gotta teach me about girls. You're the chick magnet."

"You said to teach you about the looks."

"I know, but I'd rather feel left out of my parent's and your conversation of looks then lose Summer… Again."

"Okay, number one Seth, never give another girl your cell phone number."

"Okay, I got that. What else?"

"Two, don't help a girl out anywhere. Three, never ever offer to show a new girl around the mall."

"Okay, I got that too. What's number four?"

"Uhhh, there is no number four."

"Well, Ryan, the chick magnet, you, my man, are a lot of help."

"Really…"

"Okay, can I add a hint of sarcasm in there?"

Ryan gave him one of his looks again.

Marissa went to her house feeling sorry for Summer and Seth. They are so great together but sometimes Seth just doesn't get what he's doing wrong. Like giving another girl his cell phone number. 'Poor Summer, she must be going through a lot of stress. Maybe I should call her and see if she wants to help me pick out an outfit for my date since I didn't get to buy one at the mall.' She picked up the phone and dialed Summer's number. Summer answered, "Hey Coop."

'She sounds like she's crying.' Marissa thought.

"Hey Summer."

"Coop…?"

"Yeah?"

"I think…I'm gonna…break up with Seth and this time I'm not gonna get back with him."
