After everyone had showered and dressed, or in the girls cases showered, dressed, blow-dried hair, straitened/curled hair, and applied makeup, the adults went down to the formal party while the kids headed off to the party that was being held at the lakeshore. They arrived to find four speakers set up in a square surrounding hundreds of dancing teens. One speaker was a little to close to the water for Ryan's liking and one was set up at the beginning of a dock looking like if you pushed hard enough it would go tumbling into the water. Soon enough three girls came over to the group and introduced them selves. Obviously the girl who spoke first was the one throwing the party because, although she tried to sound sweet, you could tell she was very annoyed that she had to spend her time being a hostess instead of enjoying her party.
"Hi, I'm Kate" Kate, who was wearing a simple yet fashionable dress like shirt with jeans underneath, had a reddish brown hair that had been done up in curls, and gorgeous blue eyes that probable didn't go unnoticed by anyone she ever talked to, and probably even people she didn't talk to.
"Hi I'm Seth, Seth Cohen..." Before he could even introduce the rest of his friends the girl standing next to Kate interrupted.
"Oh, Sandy and Kirsten's son" she paused for a moment whispering something to the one other girl standing with them,
"Caleb Nichol's grandson" The girl just nodded her head in understandment.
"Hi I'm Paige and this is Danielle" Paige announced while she pointed to the girl she had whispered to, who seemed very angry at something.
"Don't you have like a brother or something" Kate asked.
"Um, well, yeah, this is Ryan and" but once again he was cut off by Paige.
"Really you two look, like, nothing alike"
"Ironic huh?" was all the reply from Ryan she received.
"Anyway" Seth stated getting annoyed that he was never able to finish a sentence, "this is Marissa Cooper and Summer Roberts"
"Danielle you look really familiar, do you go to Harbor"Summer asked, Danielle just nodded her head and then turned to Marissa.
"Cooper as in Jimmy Cooper, like the guy who stole all his friends' money" These were the first words Danielle had spoken to them yet, Ryan had to put his arm out in front of Marissa to keep her from launching her self at Danielle. All four of them opened their mouths to say something but Danielle beat them to it.
"and Roberts, your dad isn't even a real doctor, he just gives people unnecessary surgeries, obviously including his own daughter" She scoffed.
Summer almost went all "Rage Blackout" on her but Seth immediately steered her away, while Kate and Paige, shocked at Danielle's outburst, dragged her off to welcome more guests.
"Who the hell does she think she is?"
"I know, I cannot believe the nerve of that, that, bitch."
The boys had steered their two very outraged girlfriends to a more secluded space at the party where they were now both venting about how horrible Danielle was.
"Look, I totally agree that she was way, way out of line, and she had absolutely no right to say those things, but lets not let it ruin the fun times that lay ahead of us this weekend, and tonight" Seth reasoned, but he just got a angry glance from Summer in return, not the reply he was looking for.
"He's right you guys, lets forget about it and have fun" Ryan coxed, and it worked.
"Ya Sum their right lets go have fun"
"Fine, I guess"
"Oh sure you'll listen to them but not to me" Seth whined. Summer tried to come up with a comeback but just said,
"Ya that's pretty much it" They both laughed and walked off to enjoy the party.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The gang had split up and come back together, several times within about three hours. Now they all stood at the side. Taking a break while watching other people dance and enjoy them selves. Many people were already drunk, surprisingly there weren't any chaperones at this party and massive amounts of alcohol was being served. Seth wondered how they got away with that considering where they were, maybe it was private property or something. At least there were no drugs. Eventually Summer started complaining that she was thirsty so her and Seth made their way to the bar while Ryan and Marissa stayed behind. Some how while trying to get through the crowed Seth and Summer's hands had been ripped apart and they had lost each other. Summer made it to the bar but still couldn't find Seth. She ordered her drink and walked to where they had previously been standing, figuring Seth would do the same, but when she reached the spot she thought her friends would be at, she realized a whole new group of people were there. She almost walked away but then she stayed to over hear what they were saying, she walked behind a large tree that a table with food was set up next to. The crowed on her left made her unnoticeable to anyone who wasn't looking for her, but the fact that it was completely deserted to her right made it easy to hear the conversation that was taking place.
"Can you believe her"
"I know she is so jut using him for his money"
"I cannot believe he doesn't see right through it"
"I know, I though he was smarter than that"
"And who does the whore think she is, I mean isn't her father like filthy rich"
"I guess that's not enough for her, she just wants more and more"
It was the three girls from earlier, along with a couple of others, Summer assumed that they were talking about her and was outraged.
"and did you see what she was wearing"
"I know like, Eww"
Summer looked down at her outfit; she had on a multi-colored mini skirt and a green halter. Sure it wasn't something a nun would wear but it wasn't sluttish by any means, she even started wearing these short shorts underneath because of the catwalk at the bait shop, and didn't stop because in some ways she felt safer with them on underneath, and those girls were calling her a slut, they obviously weren't aware of what they were wearing.
"and poor Seth I mean he's so sweet and cute, I cant believe anyone would do that to such a amazing guy"
If Summer had any doubt in her mind that they were talking about someone else, it was gone now. Something in her made her so upset she walked cautiously away from her hiding place, so she wouldn't be seen, and then quickly took off to the edge of the one dock that had been built by the scene of the party. On her way there she picked up a couple of smooth flat stones that she tried to skip as she thought.
She wasn't using Seth for his money, she truly cared about him, loved him even. Sure she had never said that but deep down she knew she did. Did a lot of people really assume that. No they couldn't. After the coffee cart, and the prom. But that was all him. She had never said she loved him, she always just followed along, Even if she really did love him, she never gave anyone any idea that she did, like he always had.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Meanwhile Seth had spotted Ryan and Marissa after he got a drink and waked over to them, never going back to their previous spot.
"Hey where is Summer?" Marissa asked the second he walked up to them
"Um we kinda got separated"
Seth looked around for her fro awhile but couldn't seem to find her so he walked back to Ryan and Marissa.
"No luck?" Ryan asked
"Nope, maybe she'll come to us" they talked for about five minutes until Seth spotted someone on the dock, he excused himself from the conversation and went over to see if it was summer, he really couldn't make her out considering there were no lights on the dock. Ryan and Marissa saw where he went but decided to stay where they were and let Seth deal with it.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Seth walked up on a very pissed, upset and confused Summer trying to skip a rock. She was failing miserably, every time she threw one it just flopped unceremoniously into the water.
"You're not turning you wrist right" Seth said breaking the silence and startling Summer, she jumped but he caught her arm to keep her from stumbling into the water. "Sorry I didn't mean to scare you" he smiled
"It's ok I didn't hear you walk up"
"Are you okay" Seth asked sensing something was wrong.
"Ya" she sighed
"Sum, you can tell me you know that right" He wrapped his arms around her waist.
"It was just those girls again"
"What did they say?"
"Nothing really, can you show me again"
"What?" she held up her last stone indicating what she meant.
"Oh ya like this" He took his right arm off her waist and placed his hand atop hers. His other armed remained around her waist with hers on top of it, just like they had done earlier. He moved her wrist and she released the stone at the exact right moment causing it to go dancing into the water, they stood in silence watching it, until that silence was broke.
With a cold hard
Splash.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
