Hey here's the new chapter…finally. I hope you guys like it, that is if anyone is still reading this. If you don't like something or are confused just tell me. I don't really know what goes on in a recovery center…but this is fan fiction, so if something seems wrong…sorry, I tried.
"I can't believe it's ten already." Summer said as Seth was driving them back to the recovery center.
"I know Summ, I didn't want this day to end." Marissa replied from the back seat.
"You really wore Ryan out…look at him sleeping. He's gonna be pissed when he wakes up and realizes that we let him sleep."
"It's not like I didn't try to wake him." Marissa said pushing Ryan a little. "He's a heavy sleeper."
"When he first got here he would wake up to anything. I mean you could open the Pool House door and he would jolt outta bed. He's changed a lot huh?" Seth asked smiling. "Seems like he's not even a 'bad boy' anymore."
"Chino? A bad boy? C'mon Cohen, he wasn't really a bad boy to begin with. He's got that look though."
"He did like punching people…" Marissa added.
"Yeah he did do that." Summer laughed.
Ryan stirred a little, waking up to all the talking that was going on. "You finally gonna get up Chino? God, you slept all through Marissa leaving…"
Ryan jumped and opened his eyes only to see Marissa, Seth, and Summer laughing. "Don't do that to me Summer. Why didn't you wake me up?" Ryan asked looking at Marissa.
"We tried." Marissa replied leaning over and giving him a kiss on the cheek. "You're a heavy sleeper."
Seth pulled into the recovery center a little while later.
"Here we are Marissa, see you next weekend?" Seth asked.
"Yeah. I'll see you all next weekend…right?" She asked looking at Ryan with pleading eyes.
"Of course baby." Ryan said leaning and giving her a kiss.
"Well, what do you guys wanna do now?" Seth asked trying to break the silence.
"Go get Marissa." Was all Ryan said.
Summer stayed quiet.
Seth chose not to talk anymore.
They arrived back at his house and went inside. Seth and Summer made their way up to his room without getting noticed.
Ryan went to his Pool House…alone…without Marissa.
"Where's Chino? He hasn't came in the house all day?" Summer asked while sitting on the Cohen's couch watching a movie with Seth.
"I don't know. I'll go check." Seth replied getting off the couch after giving Summer a light kiss on the lips.
Marissa laid on her bed and thought of how good yesterday was for her. She realized that Sundays was the worst day of the week.
She wanted to go home. She missed Ryan. She missed Summer. She missed Seth. She missed her dad. She missed being numb and not being able to feel anything, she wanted alcohol so bad. Her life wasn't anything like she had ever wanted it to be. She was alone.
Just like Ryan.
She couldn't help but cry. She was hurting so bad on the inside.
"Marissa Cooper? It's time for group therapy."
"Okay, I'm coming." Marissa got off of her hard white bed and wiped her eyes. This was going to be a very long day.
"Ryan, you in here man? Me and Summer were wondering what you were up to…"
No answer.
"Ryan?"
Seth looked around the room to find nothing. No note, no backpack, but most importantly…no Ryan.
"I swear I didn't see him leave today." Seth said to himself walking out of the Pool House. Ryan's bike was gone too. "No way…he wouldn't…nah."
"Cohen? Where's Ryan at? Isn't he in there?" Summer asked confused.
"I think he may have went to go get Marissa. All his stuff is gone. Do you think he'd do that?" Seth asked dumbfounded.
"Yeah, but it's a long way…would he really ride his bike that far?"
"I think he'd do anything to be with Marissa. We'll just wait…he may have just went out for a little while."
"Yeah."
He walked into the Recovery center. A nurse-looking lady came straight to him. "Hello Sir. Can you please tell me who you are here for? Visiting was held yesterday."
"I'm here for Marissa Cooper."
"Okay, and what is your relationship with her?"
"I'm her Father."
Cliffhanger. What did you think?
