Chapter 5- Emotions and Catfights
The gang was sitting in a corner booth at the Bait Shop. Lindsay was sitting next to Seth across from Ryan. Lindsay saw how Ryan flirted with Marissa and it made her envious. She would do anything just to be with him again, to have Ryan look at her the way he was looking at Marissa. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid Lindsay! Why did you have to leave! she thought to herself.
Lindsay scooted her leg out so that hers rubbed up against Ryan. Ryan was kind of startled and he looked up at Lindsay. She smiled flirtaciously and quickly looked away. Marissa didn't notice. Ryan pulled his leg away. He looked at Lindsay and then looked at Marissa and smiled. He leaned in and kissed her passionatly, but in a way that he was aware that he was in public. He looked back at Lindsay and saw her eyes almost well up with tears. "Excuse me I have to go to the restroom." she excused herself from the table.
Marissa had seen the jealousy in Lindsay's eyes, "Excuse me I have to go too." and she left the table as well.
"I'm gonna go get a refill on my drink," Ryan got up from the table, leaving Summer and Seth alone together.
"So... that was kind of awkward" Seth said, stating the obvious.
"Yeah. Well, we are alone. In this cozy little booth now." Summer said, a hint of suggestion in her voice.
"You know, I like the way you think." Seth replied, "And that is why I love you." Summer giggled as he leaned in and kissed her. She returned the kiss passionatly until Ryan returned with his refill.
"Okay, okay. Break it up you two!" He eyed Seth and laughed to himself as he sat down again.

Lindsay was in the bathroom looking at herself in the mirror. She saw her reflection and wanted to see Ryan standing next to her. He's moved on! Get over him! she thought. A tear slowly rolled down her cheek. Marissa walked into the bathroom. By the look on her face you could tell that she was upset.
"What exactly do you think your doing?" She said, anger in her voice.
"What?"
"You know. All of a suddenly showing up, expecting that everything will be the same!"
"I know! I just missed him!" Lindsay tried to sound as innocent as possible.
Marissa walked up to Lindsay and slapped her. "You missed him! You go to Chicago and leave him heartbroken! You left him! And newsflash! Ryan is with me now and you're just going to have to face it!"
"I know, I know. I'm not here to take him away. I'm just here to see him!" tears were streaming down her face.
"Well good!" Marissa stormed out of the bathroom. Lindsay just stood there looking at her reflection again. She looked at her face, which was red from crying. Her make-up had smeared. Oh my, look at me I'm a wreck. She tried to clean up the best that she could.

Marissa brushed the hair out of her face and walked over to the booth. "Scoot in Ryan." she said. He scooted closer to the inside of the booth. She sat down and quickly kissed him.
This is the way that it's supposed to be. Seth thought as he saw them kissing. He kissed Summer when Lindsay came out of the bathroom and approached the table.
"I'm going to go. I'm not feeling well." she said. Marissa looked at Lindsay, the Ryan, and then looked down.
"Okay. But wait, you came in my car I'll drive you." Summer said, sounding concerned. She could tell that something was wrong with Lindsay.
"No that's okay. I'll walk. I could use the excercise and the fresh air. See you later."
She turned and walked away. "Bye." Ryan called after her. He could also tell that something was wrong with Lindsay. He had seen her cry too many times. He could tell that Marissa had gotten to her. The table sat there watching her leave, everyone with a different feeling about it. After she left, they quickly started a conversation and finished the night happily.
