One Summer Chapter 48
HEY guys! Thanks for all the pool results. Keep 'em coming! One thing I noticed was that some people thought the poll was for the hardest life, it's not. It's the EASIEST life. Thanks to everyone. I'm finding very varied opinions!
But don't forget to write your opinion of the story also! LOL
A/N in case anyone hasn't noticed yet but I have a real fascination with ladybugs on ceilings. LOL. I think it's hilarious.
On with the story.
Summer relaxed on the comforter of her bed and closed her eyes. A knock on the door made her look up.
"Hey Coop." Summer greeted, watching Marissa open up the door and come in. "What's up?"
"The sky. How's it going over here?" Marissa asked, sitting on her bed.
"Nothing much. Have you noticed that your mom is acting kind of strange lately?"
"Why? What happened?" Marissa asked, wondering if Summer was going to talk about this afternoon when they all had to rush to hide the party decorations.
"Okay, so a couple of hours ago I went to find Cohen and Julie went crazy and she blocked me from coming into the living room. Thankfully Cohen saved me but I mean your mom is going whack!"
"I wouldn't worry about it. She's always whack. No difference there."
"But seriously Coop, you should keep an eye on her."
"I'll give that some thought." Marissa agreed. "So how's everything going with Seth?"
"Pretty good. I definitely feel like a whale now. I mean LOOK AT ME. I'm not even a whale anymore. I'm like an entire country. When this baby comes I definitely have to get a membership at a gym."
"Sum you look great. Stop saying you're fat. You are not. Your due date is in 2 weeks and you are supposed to look that way. In my opinion you look radiant. I mean you're glowing."
"I am?" Summer asked surprised.
"You haven't noticed?"
"You're joking."
"No Sum. You look so beautiful. Stop thinking you are fat. Once that baby comes you are not even going to think about your body. You'll have baby Cohen."
"God, that reminds me. I have to think of a baby name. I mean I have top picks and everything but I can't believe I put this off for the last minute! I'm so behind in everything. I mean all we have is a crib. We don't have any baby clothes or a changing table or …" Marissa cut her off..
"Sum, Don't worry about all the clothes and furniture. If you don't have everything ready by the time baby Cohen comes, we can still go shopping after she or he comes."
"Why are you so calm?" Summer asked suspiciously.
"Everything falls into place."
"OK. You are starting you scare me. You are turning into your mom."
Marissa laughed. "Just like you are turning into Cohen."
"Hey, sarcasm is catchy." Summer defended.
"My point exactly." Marissa returning watching Summer get into a "mood".
Seth walked into the room.
"Hey ladies," Seth said, wondering why Summer's face was so red. "How's it going?"
"Apparently, I'm turning into you." Summer said sadly.
"Aww." Seth nodded. "The sarcasm?" Marissa nodded.
"Hey!" Summer threw a pillow at both of them. "This isn't funny, it's tragic."
"Summer, we're getting married. Your last name is going to be Cohen. It's only right if you start acting like one."
"Will not." Summer pouted folding her arms over her chest.
"See! Already a perfect example." Seth joked watching his girlfriend laugh after she tried so hard not too.
"Shut it Cohen. What did you want anyway?" Summer asked, trying to get the grin off her face.
"Well, my lady, I needed to steal you away for the afternoon." Seth said, giving Marissa a wink.
"Why?" Summer asked, curiously.
"You'll see. Put on your shoes and get a jacket. I'll meet you by the car."
"You are so mysterious Cohen." Summer called as Seth walked out of the door. Summer looked at Marissa who was pleasantly smiling.
"What do you think it is?" Summer asked happily almost jumping on the bed.
"You'll have to find out. It's a surprise."
"You know don't you?" Summer asked offended.
Marissa got up from the bed and started heading to the door. "Shoes and jacket!" She called.
"COOP! YOU SUCK!" Summer hollered, running into her closet for her jacket.
562 656 25 52 65
"Cohen, are we almost there yet?" Summer begged, sounding like a 5 year-old.
"Once again Summer, No we are not. Now stop asking or I'm leaving you on the side of the road." They had been driving for over an hour or even 2 maybe and Summer was getting restless. A big bandana acted as a blindfold in front of her eyes and she kept trying to take a peak but Seth always whacked her away.
"You wouldn't do that."
"Remember last time?"
"Oh."
"Yeah."
Seth looked at the road sign and took out his map.
"Are we lost Cohen?"
Summer asked when she heard the wrinkling of the map. "Because if
we are, and you made me wear this itchy blindfold for nothing, I'm
so going to kill you."
"Then our baby wouldn't have a
daddy."
"Too bad---" Seth cut her off.
"We're here. Don't take the blindfold off yet." Summer groaned.
"Where are we?"
"Here."
"Duh!"
"Well, don't ask stupid questions next time." Seth joked, parking and turning off the engine. "Stay there and don't touch the blindfold." Seth walked around to the other side of the car and opened up Summer's door.
"Thank you." Summer said, grabbing onto his arm.
"You're welcome. Now hold on."
"Funny, Cohen, funny."
"That's me."

Well, what's his surprise? What will happen after his surprise? I guess you'll have to wait and find out!
REVIEW please! Me like-y reviews! LOL Please do. It makes me update faster!
All of you guys are so great with reviewing! I'm so happy!
For the poll, I was so surprised that a lot of you said Julie. I don't think I would ever have picked her! She got pregnant when she was 17/18 and a lot of other bad stuff happened. But I'm not saying that's a bad choice. I kind of like it.
Seth fans- not with you (lol). He's been bullied his entire life. Remember life was hell for him.
Summer- I'm still with you girl.
Sandy- His mother was hardly there for him growing up and the neighborhood had to take care of him. Plus his father disappeared.
Jimmy- he had to live with JULIE! He was stuck since he knocked her up
I'm surprised no one said Kirsten. I think she's a good candidate. Her life has been pretty easy.
No Marissa's
No Ryan's
No Caleb
I like how your minds work! Thanks!
