AN- Ok I know this chapter is short but I had to have them arrive and I wanted at least a little Kandy interaction. I will probably have another chapter up by midnight. There should be about one chapter after this and the one after that will have the major plot form.

This chapter is dedicated solely to DANIELLE, who, without me even asking, got me the directions from Newport to Big Bear Lake and a picture of Big Bear as well. Because I haven't been to Big Bear in like eleven years and that was in winter, I don't know why we don't go its only like an hour or two away but o'well. Its also dedicated to her because even though she has no idea what's going on because she doesn't watch the show she still reads my Fan Fic and edits it and tell me when something doesn't make sense. Oh and because she told me how to spell Louie Vuitton and solely, so this chapter is dedicated to you for all those reasons and so many more, I love you so much!

Oh and the next chap will be dedicated to the Person who can tell me what two words in this story come from Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Bells", and no Dani you cant guess because after we memorized it for school I know you'll know and u cant have 2 chaps in a row dedicated to you and if Darla ever reads this she cant guess either.

Sorry for the long AN I'm becoming Seth and rambling excessively.

Disclaimer- I own nothing, and I mean nothing especially not anything OC related. So yeah I do not own The O.C. Oh and I don't own Big Bear, Big Bear Lake or anything related to Big Bear(the place).

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Where do we go from here"

"Well considering I don't even know where 'here' is"

"Hey that's not my fault"

"What do you mean it's not your fault Sandy"

"You had the map"

"You told me didn't need the map"

"Since when do you listen to me"

"I don't even know what to say to that" Kirsten complained as she leaned back into her seat.

They had been on the road for about and hour and forty-five minutes or so and Sandy, who was driving, had no idea where to go. All four teens were cuddled up asleep, Summer's head still and Seth's lap and Marissa leaning against Ryan's chest.

"Read me the directions again, maybe I can see where we went wrong"

"Are you serious?"

"Yes"

"Fine, ok did you take Newport Blvd and then take the ramp onto Riverside Fwy"

"Yes"

"And then you turned right onto San Fernando Fwy"

"Yes"

"And then you turned right onto… SR-30 and took the right ramp again onto SR-330"

"Of course, who doesn't know that" Kirsten just rolled her eyes at her husbands lame attempt at humor, just kept reading.

"And then you turned left onto Rim of the World Hwy and…"

"Oh'

"What do you mean oh?"

"I think I forgot that little part"

"Great"

"I can fix it, no worries; of course we wouldn't be in this mess if someone had been reading me the directions" Sandy said with a smile on his face.

"No Sandy, we wouldn't be in this mess if you hadn't shoved the direction in the glove compartment and told me not to read them"

"Oh was that me"

Kirsten hit Sandy with the page of directions but soon began to laugh along with him

"We really need to got the GPS system fixed"

"Yeah I really miss my late night chats with the GPS lady"

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Finally after about another half hour Sandy found his way to the lodge they would be staying at for the weekend. The massive hotel was made to look like it had been built out of logs. There were a few brick fire places sticking out of the building, although no smoke was being produced from then seeing as it was late spring and the weather was warming up quite a bit. Many of the rooms were facing out over the notorious Big Bear Lake. The sun shone on the lake making the deep blue of the water shine with a crystalline delight. Although the waters were not calm considering the many boats and jets skid that were enjoying the lake. A fence of Evergreens that seemed to go on for miles and miles surrounded the water along with some colossal rocks. Kirsten and Sandy parked the car and got out stretching there legs. Kirsten opened the door on the right side of the car, knowing a still sleeping Ryan was leaning against the door on the left.

"Were here kids time to get up"

"Seth was the first one to wake, waking Summer afterwards and then Ryan and Marissa"

After a giving a minute to the foursome to realize it was time to get out of the car, they all emerged and began to stretch there legs. Seth was confused when he looked at his watch.

"Its two o'clock, and considering we left at eleven and the drive was supposed to only take and hour and a half."

Kirsten cut in explaining what had happened

"You father got lost"

"I did not" but Kirsten shot him an evil glare which made him change his answer.

"Ok maybe a little"

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
