Summer had taken a nap after she had got home. Everything she had gone through that day had exhausted her. An hour later she was awakened by excessive tapping.

"Summer? You up? Wake up."

"Cohen, go the hell away. I'm tired." Summer swatted his hand away, her head in a pillow.

"Wake up. You have to go to Julie's house to try clothes on."

"Don't wanna." Summer pouted, sounding like a 5 year old again.

"Do you want me to get Anna to help?" Seth pushed knowing Anna's name was the last name she wanted to hear.

"Fine. Don't expect to get any sex for the rest of your life." Seth frowned and he collapsed on his bed after she finally got off of it.

"Ohhh now Summer. Don't you want some of this?"

"No, not especially." Summer yawned.

"Ok, enough on that subject. It's depressing. Mom said she's going to order a queen-size bed tonight. It will probably come tomorrow."

"Where are you going to sleep tonight?" Summer asked walking into his bathroom.

"On the bed. With you." Seth begged, hopeful.

"You better not take the covers. It's already hard enough as it is."

"Fine. I guess we have to kick Princess Sparkles out. Speaking of which, Princess Sparkles finally gets her date with Captain Oats."

"Since when did my Princess Sparkles want a date with him?" Summer asked, brushing her teeth.

Seth looked at her and his eyes opened wide not evening hearing what she just said. "Summer… whose toothbrush are you using?"

"Yours."

"EWWW." He said.

"You took my word and plus that is not 'EWWW' " Summer said. "We live together now. We share things, plus I don't have mine and I have bad breath."

"What time were you supposed to be there at Julie's?"

"7ish"

"Ok you are now officially late." Seth said looking at his watch, smiling.

"She lives right next door. I t won't take that long to walk there. Plus we are going to be fashionable late."

"We?" Seth's face turned to shock. "I don't want to watch all the ladies shop. It's boring I tell you, BORING!"

"Fine you can get out of this one. But you better not be taking up all the space on the bed when I get back." Summer said adjusting her blouse.

"I'll try. Bye."

"Bye." Summer returned, walking out of his room and going down the stairs.

Summer walked the short way to Julie's house. She was glad she lived there now. She was close to all her friends now. Coop lives right next door, and Ryan and Seth both lived where she lived.

Ever since Jimmy died a couple years ago, the exterior of the house had not been kept up. Julie had sent people to fix it, but it didn't look any better then before. Marissa had got Ryan to help once but he had ended up with extreme sunburn and a broken wrist. It was useless. Summer had to walk very carefully over one part or the stone tiles would break.

Finally she made it to Julie's house safe and everyone was waiting for her.

"Here she is everyone. Summer made it. Thank god." Julie fanned herself with her hand. "Everyone lets go."

Summer went and found Coop in the small crowd all moving towards their different cars. "Coop!" Summer yelled.

"Hey, what took you so long?" Marissa asked, adjusting the top of her dress so it didn't scoot over too much.

"I fell asleep. But that's not interesting. I've got good news and I've got bad news. Which one first?" Summer asked, getting into Julie's car with Marissa.

"Bad."

"My dad kicked me out and now he won't ever speak to me again. Ok, now the good news." Marissa nodded "I live next door now!"

Marissa shrieked and hugged Summer.

"That's awesome! We're neighbors!"

"I know!" Summer said happily.

"How'd the doctor's appointment go?"

"It was scary at first but it didn't turn out to be that bad. Cohen was there with me the whole time." Julie got into the car and started the engine.

"Hello girls. Summer glad you could make it. We were all worried you weren't going to make it." Julie said nicely.

"Oh yeah. Sorry, I feel asleep. I had a big day today."

"Marvelous. How's Seth?"

"He's good. You know what I was thinking about?"

Julie shook her head. "What?"

"We are going to be related." Summer said that just to see the look on her face. That was the last thing Julie wanted. Marissa laughed at this.

Julie's face dropped and she didn't say anything for a moment. "How is that?"

"Well you are marrying Caleb which is Seth's Grandpa. Seth's baby is mine which makes us semi-related."

"Oh." And that was all she had said.

Finally they arrived at the place and they all piled out. Julie called everyone's attention.

"Ok. I set you guys into group since there is so many of us. Group 1 is Cindy, Katie, Natalie, and Samantha and will be with Dorothy here. Group 2 is Ashley, Vicky and Nicole who will be with Linda. And finally group 3 will be Marissa, Summer and myself with the owner Karley. Ok get into your groups!" the group scattered and Julie and Karley walked us over to a row of dresses.

"I've already picked out my dress but now it's your turns. Now Karley. Summer here is pregnant and so the fitting will have to be adjusted to fit her. You are how much along Summer?" Julie asked.

"3 months."

"Ok so she will be 4 months along for the wedding. She will be hardly showing but lets make sure she won't. Maybe something to cover up her stomach. Maybe a bow?"

The rest of the night went long and boring. She didn't have a say in what her dress was; Julie had picked it out and Summer thought it was hideous. But that's life she thought.

At 10:30 PM she trudged home to the Cohen's house. She was about the ring the bell when she decided to maybe try the door to see if it was unlocked. It was. She walked into the foyer and put her purse on the table.

"You're back. That sure was one long wedding fitting. I'm glad I'm not in it." Kirsten said into the darkness.

"You waited up for me?" Summer asked surprised. Her dad had never done that. He really never cared what time she got back.

"Well you're family now and this is what we Cohen's do." Kirsten sat patting the sofa. "Sit. I want to talk."

Summer stepped over there and sat next to her.

'I'm sorry." Kirsten started. "I shouldn't have acted that way at the mall. It was your decision about what do to with the baby. I'm sorry I pressured you."

"I'm sorry too. I mean you are going to be a grandma. I was just scared and I didn't want to tell anyone the mistake I made. I was selfish. I do have one question though."

"Try me."

"How'd you find out about me being pregnant?"

"That day I came over to your house after Seth had disappeared. I was in the bathroom and it fell out of the trash."

"Oh" Summer said sadly. "I'm sorry that I got pregnant. I mean now Seth's life is going to change and everything is going to be really complicated."

"It's not something to be sorry for. You were really brave telling your dad no about not having an abortion. I couldn't do it." Kirsten said, quietly.

"What do you mean?"

"I too was pregnant when I was 17. I told my dad and he told be to have one. If I didn't he said I wouldn't be his daughter anymore. I had it. I killed my own baby." Kirsten hesitated and sobbed. "I regret it to this day. But if I didn't have it. I wouldn't have Sandy and Seth and I wouldn't be talking to you right now."

Summer hugged her. "Thanks for telling me."
