The following review has been submitted to: One Summer Chapter: 14
From: Abby( )
Is it just me, or is every SS story where Seth leaves on his boat end
up in Summer getting pregnant! Come on people, moving on! At least get
a new storyline, like bulimic Rissa, or mest up Seth, or Summer cheats
on Seth. Come on, let's not go down the already done that road! Pleae!
Sorry!
To one of the reviews that I received. I'm totally open to mean and ugly reviews but this one just had me laughing. For one Seth didn't leave on his boat. This is AU slightly. Seth didn't leave because of Ryan. It isn't after Caleb's and Julie's wedding. When I look for SS fics, all I can find is stories that happen 8 to 15 years after she finds out she's pregnant with the exception of one that I found and was posted a month and a half after I started mine. I definitely don't like when people judge before they read the story. I have written a story about Marissa being messed up and Ryan having to take care of her. So please before you write, READ.
Thanks everyone for all the awesome reviews.
On with the story!
Summer slammed the taxi door and mumbled a 'thanks' to the driver after she paid him. Her face was tear-stained and she still hadn't stopped crying. Things were out-of-control crazy.
Kirsten didn't know what she was talking about. She was pregnant but she didn't have to tell Kirsten anything if she didn't want to. It was her life.
Summer was going to tell them eventually but it wasn't the time then and she thought she shouldn't be pressured into anything and made to be felt guilty.
Why didn't she just take the darn bikini. Wait… Summer thought. Did Kirsten know that if she wore the bathing suit she would have to tell them about her situation. That sneaky little beep.
Summer clamored into the front door and sat down on the floor and started crying again. A noise in the kitchen made her tense and be still. There were footsteps and then a big bang. She got up and tried to grab a tool from the fireplace.
"Sum? Is that you?" Summer relaxed and dropped it back into it's holder.
Marissa walked out of the kitchen wearing a red apron and lots of flour.
"I missed you so much." Summer sobbed hugging Marissa. Right now she didn't care that she now had flour on her.
Marissa let go and held her at arm's length to take a good look at her.
"Why are you crying, Sum? Did something bad happen?"
"God, Coop you have no idea."
"I've got all day. My afternoon pancakes didn't come out so good, but if we talk in the kitchen, I can listen and clean up while you talk. Sound good?."
"Better then ever. I'm glad you're back." Summer said, walking together to the kitchen. "Why are you back early?"
"I thought you might need a friend these days."
Summer looked up and gave a questioning pose.
"You know?"
"Know what? I mean you're pregnant. You might need someone there. Seth's gone and you haven't told anybody." Marissa would have kept going if Summer wouldn't have kind of snorted.
"What?" Marissa asked.
"It has been a while hasn't it."
"Ok. I am really out of the loop. Did something happen. Did someone find out."
"An understatement."
"Then tell me. I've been in Europe. Totally hot guys but none of the latest news from here."
"So you're ready for the long story?" Summer asked, finally getting her eyes dried from crying.
"Ready as ever."
"Fasten your seatbelt, we're off for a bumpy ride." Summer laughed and Marissa hit her shoulder. "Ok. Ok…. It all started right after I talked to you…"
"So it's all my fault?" Marissa pouted.
"Just shut up and listen, Coop." They both laughed.

Kirsten sat on the sofa with her hand on her head. Things hadn't turned out the way she had hoped they would be at the mall- girl bonding. I guess that's why she had 2 boys living in her house instead of girls. Sandy was always so good with everyone even if a bad situation was in the air. Kirsten always tried to get right to the point of it.
In the middle of the living room was the 20 bags of clothes Kirsten and Summer had bought together. After she had unloaded all the bags from the car, she had kicked all of them at least 10 times. All the boys were gone and they hadn't left her a note. That irritated her even more.
Kirsten finally got up and decided to sort all the clothes. One pile for her and one pile for Summer. They had easily spent 10,000 dollars on their little event.
The last thing Kirsten had wanted was a rift between her and her grandbaby's mother. And now Summer said she didn't even want to have it. That definitely sent Kirsten into a commotion. Was Summer going to have an abortion? Is that why Seth still doesn't know?
Halfway though the clothes, Kirsten stopped and looked at a pink shirt. It looked bigger then Summer would wear and she knew she didn't pick it out either. Summer and Kirsten had separate carts so she hadn't a clue to want Summer had bought. She looked at the tag and it was a maternity top. Summer wasn't that pregnant, was she? 4-5 months was on the tag. Of course she wasn't that much along. Impossible.
She looked at more shirts and almost ½ of them were maternity. Not that big but just for the next 2 months or so. She continued sorting them and was amazed she didn't noticed Summer when she had been in those baby sections.
The doorbell rang and Kirsten jumped. She felt kind of guilty that she was rummaging through the tags of Summer's clothes. No doubt she was still going to give them to her.
"I'm coming. Hold on." She called. Kirsten looked back unto the living room where it was piled high in clothes.
She had a little hope it might be Summer.
Kirsten opened the door and there was Julie Cooper.
"OMG. She's pregnant!" Julie burst in, not waiting for Kirsten to let her in.
"Julie. How do you know?" Kirsten gave Julie, her regular look- like Julie was crazy.
"I was at the mall of course. Half of Newport knows now. That was one mighty show you guys put on."
"Now Julie you can't tell anyone that Summer' pregnant."
"Why not. Everyone will know tomorrow that little Summer Robert's has a baby growing in her tummy." Julie laughed loudly.
The door to the garage shut and Seth and Ryan both looked at them like they were crazy. They had heard that last sentence loud and clear.
TBC
HA HA!
