BABYsitting?

"Coop are you kidding me?"

"No Summer. I am not kidding you. I need you. You AND Seth. You're the only two available, COME ON!" Marissa pleaded.

"Coop…you want me to babysit your sister?"

"Well not BABYsit, but just hang out at my house for a few hours. And keep an eye on Kaitlin."

"Isn't she like thirteen?" Summer whined.

"Fourteen. But my parents don't trust her. Remember when she got caught with that can of beer in her room? She's been on house arrest ever since," Marissa replied, "I'm just be happy that my mom is actually being a mom."

"True. But why Seth and I?"

"Well, I have to go to that stupid luncheon for the Newport Group, and obviously Ryan is my date. And Seth said his mom wasn't going to make him go, so he won't ask you to go with him…and so therefore you are both free tonight." Marissa babbled.

"What are we gonna have to do? Like cook her meals? And change her diaper?" Summer laughed.

"Oh shut up. You can sit on the couch all night if you want, just make sure she doesn't get out, and nobody get's in . Okay?"

"Sure whatever. I'll call Cohen." Summer replied listlessly.

"Cohen. Get your lazy ass out of bed. We're babysitting." Summer yelled into the phone without even saying hello.

"WHAT? How did you know I was still in bed? Thanks for the hello by the way." Seth rambled, sounding half asleep.

"Meet me at the Cooper's in five minutes. If you don't, your ass is mine."

"My ass is already yours!" Seth laughed.

"COHEN! MOVE!" came the shrill scream on the other end of the phone.

Seth stumbled out the door, yelling to his parents about going to the Coopers. His hair had not been combed, and he had thrown on whatever he could find. He squinted in the bright light, as he walked to the house next door.

"God Sum, I just love your wake up calls." Seth said sarcastically as the door was opened. He still couldn't see very well, due to the bright sunlight. All he could see was a dark figure standing in the middle of the doorway.

"What are you talking about?" a voice asked.

Whoa that wasn't Summer, Seth thought. He shielded his eyes, and saw the person standing in front of him. "Kaitlin?"

"Who did you think it was going to be? You guys are babysitting me today." She replied in a sarcastic voice.

"Whaa…? Seth muttered just as Summer walked into his view.

"Come on Cohen." She laughed, as she grabbed his shirt pulling him into the house.

"How…why…what the hell am I doing here?" Seth asked, obviously very confused.

"If you guys need me, I'll be upstairs, in my dungeon." Said Kaitlin in a bored voice.

"Watch that tone brat." Summer retorted, only getting an eye roll in return, "Ugh, teenagers."

"Sum, what are we doing here?" Seth asked, still looking around in a highly confused state.

"We're keeping an eye on Kaitlin for Julie and Marissa. I guess she's a troubled teen or something. I don't know. The bottom line is we're stuck here for three hours."

Seth leaned back into the couch he had just flopped on to. "So this sucks."

"Yeah. Wanna watch tv?"

"Sure."

………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Sum, this is boring."

"It is not Cohen. You just don't appreciate true love."

"True love? Are you kidding me? This is the Bachelor! It's on TELEVISION." Seth replied with disgust.

"Well obviously you don't understand it." Summer retorted. She was curled in a ball, tucked safely in between Seth's arm, and his body. This was her favorite place to be. Close to Cohen, yet arguing. Nothing felt more right.

"Oh, I don't know what true love is?" Seth asked in an amused voice.

Summer looked up into his face. He was grinning a small little smile. He was making fun of her. "YES. I mean no. Oh I don't know." She tried to retort, but couldn't help giggling, as Seth squeezed her shoulder. She could feel his hand slide down her side, and rest on her hip. But a second later, he was tickling her.

"COHEN! Ohmigod…Cohen stop! I'm not kid-" she stopped as she dissolved into a fit of giggles, shaking and wiggling on the couch.

Suddenly, he stopped, with Summer somehow ending up with her head on his lap. They stared at eachother for a minute, before Seth leaned down and kissed her. The kiss became more intense, as Summer grabbed his hair pulling him down harder. His had caressed her cheek, and ran through her hair.

As soon as the kiss had started, Seth broke away, inches from her face. "So I don't know what true love is?" he asked.

Summer smiled a small smile. "You know exactly what true love is Cohen." She giggled.

As she pulled him down for another kiss, they suddenly heard a thump come from upstairs. Then a crash.

Seth looked at Summer in fear. They both jumped up and ran upstairs, wondering what Kaitlin could have possibly done in that short amount of time.

"KAITLIN!" Seth bellowed as he grabbed Summer's hand pulling her off the couch and walking to the stairs.

There was no answer.

I had to add in a bit of drama. Haha! Hopefully this chapter wasn't too mushy or sappy. I'm trying for a happy medium! Keep reviewing I love it!
