Summer stared at her feet. Marissa's question was lurking in her mind. "What are you, pregnant?" To tell- or not to tell? That was the question.

She couldn't not answer. That was basically saying "yeah, I'm pregnant"

"Of course I'm not pregnant!' Summer said grabbing the beer. "I just didn't want to have a major hangover tomorrow when I go home. But if I have to prove to you that-"

"Sum, calm down, I was just joking. Anyways I wouldn't want to be sick tomorrow when I had to get on a plane and go back to New York."

Summer sat the beer down on the counter and sighed. She needed some alone time with Seth. She couldn't stand the secrets. "I'm gonna go find Cohen" she said, fighting her way through the crowd. She stood on her tip-toes until she saw his curly brown hair off in the distance.

"Hey" she said finally reaching him. "Hey"

"Listen, this party's kind of lame. Do you maybe wanna go somewhere and talk?" she asked.

He agreed, and they went outside, walking down the beach, their feet getting lapped by waves coming up.

"So…" she really didn't know what to say. I mean it had never been this awkward between them. But now, since she'd moved, she didn't feel as connected to him as she did before. She couldn't understand it though, considering a part of him was growing inside of her. I mean, she still loved him with all of her heart. But things to talk about were limited.

"So, how's New York?" he asked, staring at the sand as he walked forward, reaching for her hand. "Awful. It's always cold, I have like no friends, and…your not there"

For the first time since their walk, they actually made eye contact. It was like they were looking into each others souls or something. She could have melted. He leaned in for a kiss. It was nothing passionate. It was just simple, short, and sweet. It fit the moment perfectly.

They both smiled and continued walking. There was silence. Not awkward. There just didn't seem to be anything to say. After awhile, Summer stopped walking and laid down in the sand.

Seth stared at her smiling. "What are you doing?"

She giggled a little. "When I was little, my mom would bring me out here and we'd just look at the stars" she said smiling. "We'd always try and count them" she said looking back on the memories.

Seth plopped down beside her and stared at the stars to. "You don't see stuff like this in New York do you?" he asked, taking her hand in his and laying them between them.

"Nope, you sure don't. Way too many lights. I'm telling you, it'll be midnight and tons of people are still on the streets. It's insane"

Seth gave out a little laugh. Summer closed her eyes as a breeze came, and she took in the sweet smell of the ocean. The lights and music from the party had faded quite a ways back, and the only light came from the moon and stars.

Seth just took in her beauty. She just looked so peaceful, lying in the sand, her eyes closed. He turned vision back to the sky but it didn't seem as beautiful as the woman lying next to him. "I've never seen anything more beautiful" she said, finally opening her eyes.

"I have" he said, turning his gaze on her. Summer's heart did flip-flops. "One day we're going to get married at this very same place"

Summer gaped. He was so incredibly sweet. How could she ever keep something from him? She pushed the thoughts out of her mind. This was hers and Seth's time.

"Are you pre-proposing to me, Cohen?" she asked through her smiling mouth.

"Maybe" he said smiling.

"Well I accept" she said giggling a little.

Seth stood up and walked toward the lapping water just a few feet away. "What are you doing?" she asked, sitting up. He walked back up and lay back down. Holding his hand, he handed her a small sea shell. "Think of it as an engagement ring" he said handing it to her.

Summer bit her lower lip. She felt like crying. She took the shell and admired it. It had little swirls of purple in it.

She rolled over so that she was on her stomach and rested her head on his chest. She listened to his heart beat. Closing her eyes, she pictured her and Seth raising a family together, getting married, and spending their lives with each other. Nothing made her feel so happy.

Just then, huge rain drops landed on her, a few at first, but then they just poured down. Her eyes flew open. There weren't even any clouds in the sky. Seth grabbed her arm and started to run but she just stalled.

She turned her head upright to the rain and let it fall on her face. "You ever danced in the rain, Cohen?" she said meeting his gaze. "Nope" he answered.

She paused. "Will you dance with me?" she asked smiling at him.

He smiled. What had he ever done to deserve her? Walking towards her, he wrapped his arms around her waist and she rested her head against him. The only music was the sound of the rain drops hitting the ocean. They were getting soaked, but they didn't care.

"Ya know" Seth said. "Whoever said sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain" he said kissing the top of her drenched hair.
