2 months later

Marissa was just going to court with Sandy. Sandy didn't want Ryan to go because he was helping the P.I. find his parents. he didn't care much about his dad but he really cared about his sister. He had Seth but there wasn't a bond with Seth same with Sandy and Kirsten he loved them he wouldn't give them up for the world but he lost his actual brother his childhood heroe. Now he wanted to find his sister because he needed to find someone who was his family. His family. his twin. He wondered about her. Was she like him? did she know about him? did she care?

"Marissa Cooper,17 is being tried today in the murder of her boyfriend's brother today. Her lawyer claims he attempted to rape her and the jury is taking that into account and when she shot him he was strangling her boyfriend Ryan Atwood who spoke at the trial yesterday are legal experts think Ms. Cooper will get off all of the charges. And here they are the jury has come to there descision the jury is going to drop all charges because of killing trey for her boyfriends defence. Yet she will have to go to an institution for 1 month.

Ryan was getting alot of progress they were just having problems getting his parents changed names realesed. When they moved Dawn and Ryan's dad never knew the baby girls name once they gave away Ryan they moved to another town. Marissa then walked into to Sandy's office. She saw Ryan and they kissed. She looked like she was crying.

"Marissa what's wrong"

"Ryan, Im scared i don't want to go to the institution"

"Marissa, It's ok"

"Ryan, Im sorry"

"Marissa, i don't care i am focused completly one thing you"

"ok i gotta go my mom wants me to eat with her tonight come and see me later i don't see enough of you"
