AN: I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry you guys! maybe you dont care but in case someone does here is my apology! Long story short, I had major writers block and then school and trips came up and I sorta forgot about it. I was going through my stuff in my bedroom the other day and I saw it and I was like OMG that is totally brutal! But now i have written up to ch. 17 in my book.. so I will get some chapters up quickly! Please forgive me and Please continue to read!

Ryan walked down the hall with Seth at his side.

"What's your schedule?" Seth asked.

"Don't really have one. I mean I just talked to Dr. Kim and she said that she wouldn't put me in any classes till I know what I want to be. So she gave me an assignment to do. Find out what I like in each class and she will analyze it to see what I'm best suited for."

"Dude that sucks."

"Why? You know what you wanna do?"

"Since I was seven." Seth stated, matter of factly.

"What's that?" Ryan looked at him surprised.

"Don't look so surprised. It's completely obvious. A video game designer."

"Ah, shoulda guessed."

They made it to their first class.

"Ry I think this is only your class."

"Don't call me that."

"What? Ry? Too bad, I'm too used to it to change."

"Seth, that's the first time you've called me that."

"Dude it's stuck. Deal with it. So yah anyways as I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted," He shot a glare at Ryan, who just shook his head, "you have advanced math. I have chem."

"O yah looks like it. Well I guess I'll catch up with you later." He walked into class and sat at a table at the back. The bell rang and a bunch of students walked in. As he got out his books someone entering late caught his eye.

Marissa.

Marissa headed into advanced math scared. Sure, she had sounded calm in the bathroom but that was just for Summer so she didn't have a stroke. She had been on the verge of freaking out before she heard Summer do the same thing. Truth was she didn't know if he could do the plan. Summer had a reason to pretend to be nice to Seth, when she should be really pissed, but she knew why Ryan had left. All she wanted to do was grab him, kiss him, and hold him forever. When she saw him today she'd been shocked to say the least. He wasn't supposed to be back but know that he was she just wanted to pick up where they had left off. But no. She had a boyfriend now, and they couldn't expect to back to the way it was after two months of being separated.

As she walked into class she saw Ryan sitting at a table. 'Might as well go for it' she thought. She walked over to his table and sat down next to him. "Hey Ryan, whatcha doing here? Theresa kick you out? Or you couldn't get enough of lovely Newport and just had to come back?" she said all this calmly and with a bright smile even though her heart was pounding so hard she was sure he could hear it.

Summer headed for chem feeling fairly confident. She could do this. She could act happy to see Cohen even when she felt like killing him, yet jumping his sexy bones. She walked in the door feeling collected and holding the bitchy Summer in place. But all that malted when she saw him sitting inside. God he was just as gorgeous as ever. No! She had to be strong and show him how over him she was. She had moved on and they could go to friends but that was all. She had a boyfriend. She conjured a picture of Zack up in her head, and walked over to Seth with her head held high.

"Hey Cohen long time no see. What brings you back here?" she smiled at him keeping the picture of Zack still in her mind.

Ryan looked up and saw Marissa walk into the classroom. He sucked in a breath. She was gorgeous, just like before. He sighed knowing it could never be the same. Looking back down at his books he felt someone sit next to him. He looked up and brown eyes connected with blue ones.

"Hey Ryan, whatcha doing here? Theresa kick you out? Or you couldn't get enough of lovely Newport and just had to come back?" Marissa had a smile on her face and looked very unsurprised.

"Uh…well…I er-…" he got stuck on his words. Why was she so calm? Shouldn't she be all flustered seeing as how they haven't seen each other in months? He shook his head and was about to answer when the teacher started talking.

"Ok class turn to page twenty four in your books and lets begin."

'Thank god,' Ryan thought. His head was spinning and he didn't know what to say.

For the rest of class he tried to focus on the work, but he couldn't get over how beautiful Marissa looked. God he'd missed her.

The bell rang then and Marissa got up to leave. "Hey it looks like we have the same lunch period. I'll meet you at our usual table?"

He nodded dumbly and she smiled and walked away. He got up and headed through the halls.

Seth stared at the beauty sitting next to him. She was being nice to him. He was seriously confused. Shouldn't she be pissed? AND she had sat beside HIM.

"Well uh… it was time to… come back" he searched for an answer. She smiled and took his schedule.

"Oh, I see you have the same lunch as me. See you at the usual table?"

He nodded, wide-eyed at her. She looked back down at her books and went over her notes.

Seth just stared and couldn't comprehend what she was doing.

"What? Do I like, have something on my face?" she asked a little worried when she noticed his stare.

"What? Uh no! no.. your gorgeous" he said dreamily, and then snapped his eyes back down to his notes, mentally cursing himself.

Summer blushed and looked back down at her notes to.
