It was a Saturday afternoon and Seth, Ryan and Sandy sat in the back yard, supervising the kids as they swam. Kirsten, Summer and Marissa were out shopping. Seth smiled inwardly to himself as Jacob called his name making sure he had seen his last trick. Everything was going so good for him at the moment, he had Summer, he had Jacob and he had his brother Ryan, Marissa and Bridget and even his parents. His only regret was not coming back sooner cause if he had things would be so much different, he and Summer would probably be married with a couple of brothers or sisters for Jacob. But he wasn't gonna waste time regretting things anymore, he had everything he wanted and nothing would ruin that.

Seth was brought back to earth by his Dad " Seth, Seth…your mobiles ringing. Ryan just ran inside to get it, where were you just now?"

"Sorry I was just thinking" He replied

"Well that explains the pained expression then," Sandy told him with a grin

"Ha ha your so funny Dad" Seth retorted

He stood up to walk inside as Ryan ran out, a frantic look on his face and keys in hand

"What's wrong?" Seth asked

"It's the girls, there's been an accident, there at the hospital we have to go now, quick get the kids out of the pool" He yelled at them

Sandy pulled he kids out and helped them get their clothes on as Seth and Ryan ran out to the car

"Are they ok? What happened? When was it?" Seth was feeling sick in the guts

"I don't know anything, it was Kirsten she said there'd been an accident and to come quick" Ryan replied

Seth nodded as Sandy and the kids hopped in the car. Ryan stepped on the gas. The ride was quick and silent, no one spoke, all were lost in there own dreadful thoughts. When they arrived at the hospital Seth grabbed Jacob and Ryan grabbed Bridget as they all ran inside. Marissa and Kirsten were sitting on the seats. Summer was nowhere to be seen. Seth's heart stopped he ran over to his mom and though he knew it may be selfish not to ask how she was, he had to know if Summer was ok

"Where's Summer?" He yelled at her

Kirsten looked at him pitifully

"Where the hell is she mom? Please just tell me I can handle it," He yelled again

Kirsten shook her head, tears in her eyes; it was obvious she couldn't go on. Seth put Jacob down and turned to Marissa

"We don't know anything yet, they took her in, she was awake but that's all we know, the doctor hasn't come out yet" Marissa told him, quiet calmly

Seth nodded

"She's gonna be ok Seth, you know Summer, she's a fighter" Marissa spoke once again

Marissa hugged him and he sat next to her. Jacob climbed onto his lap

"Is Mom gonna be ok Dad?" Jacob asked innocently

"I hope so little dude, I really do" Seth tried to stay strong for Jacob

He hugged his son tight, promising never to let go. A couple of minutes later a middle-aged doctor came out looking quite calm- a good sign? Seth didn't know

"Are you the family of Summer Roberts?" He asked professionally

"Yes" Seth answered at once "How is she?"

"She's doing ok, a few cuts and bruises, a broken arm but she should be fine, we'd like to keep her in over night for observation though" He told them all

Seth breathed a huge sigh of relief "Can we go in?"

"Yes but only one at a time" The doctor sternly replied

Everyone looked at Seth, so he put Jacob down and followed the doctor down the hall. As he entered the room, Seth's heart broke, he couldn't stand to see Summer like this, her face was covered in cuts and bruises and she was hooked up to several machines, he wiped the stray tear from his eye and approached the bed. He sat in the chair and grabbed he hand, she grinned under all the bruising

"Hey, how you feeling?…" He stopped "Well I mean, besides the obvious?"

"Don't make me laugh Cohen, it hurts," She reminded him, her voice was weak and hoarse

"Sorry…for everything" He told her, needing to say it

"Don't be, this wasn't your fault, it was the idiot driver," Summer said

"That's not what I meant Summer, I'm sorry for leaving, I'm sorry for questioning you, I'm sorry for every bad thing I ever did to you, you don't deserve this Summer, you're an amazing person, it should be me lying in that bed- not you, you don't deserve it" Seth was angry at himself

"Whoa Seth you don't deserve this either and calm down I'm gonna be fine, I promise…don't do this to yourself Seth, all that stuff is in the past and I don't wanna dwell on it, I just wanna be with you and Jay" She tried her hand at convincing him

"You really scared me Sum, I thought… I thought I'd never see you again and I thought that you were…that you were.." He stopped as Summer cut him off

"Stop it Cohen, I'm fine how many times do I have to say it" She asked him, almost pleadingly

"I know, I just don't ever wanna lose you, I love you too much for that" He told her

"I love you too Cohen" She replied

He leaned over and kissed her then, dropping down on one knee he said "Summer Roberts, I love you more than life itself, I knew from the moment I saw you that you were the one for me and although this is so not how I imagined doing this…will you make me the happiest man alive and marry me?"

Tears ran down her bruised and battered face but yet you could tell she was smiling beneath it

"Yes! Yes of course I'll marry you!" She screamed as loud as she could

Seth jumped up and hugged her, he couldn't believe it, he was engaged to Summer Roberts the girl of his dreams, and He smiled

"I love you so much Summer," He told her

"I love you too Seth" She replied


A/N: So this was the second last chapter, next one will most likely be an epilogue, I'm not good at writing weddings although I may put a bit of it in a flashback, who knows. Hope you liked it
