Seth lied on Summer's bed with her. He was on top of her stroking her hair, and kissing her lucius, pink lips. The two of them had not really made out in a very long time. Summer had her arms wrapped around Seth and kissed him back rather passionately. However, she began to think about Marissa, and how she was doing. She stopped kissing Seth, and motioned to sit up. He sat up next to her.

"What's wrong?" Seth asked Summer. He was afraid that he really was not up to parr for her taste, after all, she had been with Zack, who was a water polo player.

"Nothing, I guess," Summer said. "It's just Marissa. I can't stop thinking about her. I mean is she really okay? She hardly talks to me."

Seth began to say something sarcastic, and then held it back. He knew that this was not the time to make a witty joke about his girlfriend's best friend. Seth had just gotten Summer back, and he did not want to lose her over something like this, for he knew that she could be touchy about things, especially when it pertained to someone or something she cared about very much.

"Maybe she's still dealing with what happened. Ryan really isn't that talkative either," Seth told Summer.

"Cohen, Ryan never talks, and I don't think she ever did deal with what happened," Summer added. She looked at him with a look on her face that said "duh".

"Yeah, but he hasn't been talking to me, you, my dad, and I know you don't want to hear her name, but he doesn't talk to Theresa either. I don't think he and Marissa talk really. Ryan is more of a brooder, if you know what I mean," Seth explained.

"Well, of course he isn't going to talk to Marissa, Cohen. I mean, she shot his brother. She is probably afraid to talk to him, for all we know," Summer retorted.

"Dude, our lives are like such a soap opera," Seth said. He lied back down on Summer's bed and put his hands behind his head.

"It really is like a soap opera around here, isn't it?" Summer replied, agreeing with Seth. She went back down on him, and began to kiss him again, feeling impervious to the world around them.
