"I can't believe Cohen is missing his favorite band" Summer said, sipping her Dr. Pepper. "I mean, he loves Deathcab"
Marissa sighed. If she heard Seth's name one more time she was going to scream. "Summer, he explained to you why he couldn't come. Kirsten says he needs to take responsibility of Caden or whatever"
"Besides, he saw them last year" Anna commented, joining the conversation.
"I guess" Summer said, listening to the whiney music. Why was she here? She didn't even like Deathcab that much. She'd gone in hopes of spending time with Seth.
"You guys, I'm gonna go" Summer said, standing from the round table the girls were sitting at.
Marissa gaped. "Where are you going?"
"To hang out with Seth. I feel bad leaving him alone tonight when he knows I'm here at his favorite bands concert. Besides, I don't even like Deathcab"
"Summer, Seth's a big boy. Besides that, he volunteered to take Caden for the week so that you could relax and have some fun. Come on, please just stay!"
Marissa pleaded.
Marissa liked Seth and all, as a friend of course, but Summer had not shut up about him since she picked her up that night. They'd agreed this was going to be a girl's night out to have fun, and so far, it was a "lets obsess over Cohen" night out.
"Sorry Coop" Summer said. "Bye Anna"
The two girls watched as Summer skidded down the stairs and into the crowd, finally disappearing.
Marissa sighed and glanced over at Anna. "So much for girl's night out"
"Yeah, well, at least we don't have to talk about Seth anymore" Anna said, laughing.
"That's true" Marissa said, giggling.
Cohen Residence
Summer knocked softly on the door, just loud enough for someone to hear, but not loud enough to wake up a baby.
She smiled when she saw Seth's dimpled grin. "Chinese?" she asked, holding the white sack up.
Seth stepped aside, motioning for her to come inside. She turned around to say something but was cut off by Seth's soft lips.
"I should blow Deathcab off for you all the time" she said smiling.
"Thank you" he said sincerely.
20 minutes later
Summer and Seth sat on the living room floor, leaning against the couch with half-eaten cartons of Chinese food around them.
"My gosh Seth! You said you were going to go easy on me! You've killed me like 3 times already" she screamed, slapping his chest.
"Shh" he said, placing his finger over her lips. "You wake that baby up and you'll never get him back to sleep!"
Summer rolled her eyes. "Well I guess you better figure out how to keep me quiet" she seductively said.
"I think I can do that" he teased back, scooting closer to her. She took his cheeks in her hands and crashed her lips against his.
Summer moaned when he deepened the kiss, pulling him down with her. She tugged at the hair on the nape of his neck, amazed at how this still felt.
Seth skimmed the bottom of Summer's shirt, slipping his hand slightly up when she didn't object.
"Hey guys we're home" they both heard Kirsten say from the front door. "We brought some leftovers"
Summer and Seth darted apart, both fixing their disheveled appearances.
"Oh hey Summer, I thought that was your car in the driveway"
Summer smiled shyly. "Hi Mrs. Cohen"
"What are you kids up to tonight?" Sandy asked. He could tell something had been going on by the way they were acting.
"Uh, nothing. Seth was just teaching me how to play this weird ninja game"
She was getting more nervous by the second.
"Gee, look at the time. I think I'm just gonna go tell Caden bye and then…go. It was nice to see you Mr. and Mrs. Cohen. You to Seth"
Seth was confused. Why was she acting so strange? His parents already knew that they'd sex before. I mean, Caden was proof of that. Besides that, they were just making out. Well…his hand was up her shirt. And if they hadn't shown up…things could have happened. They could have walked in on much worse. In fact, they had walked in on much worse before.
Great, now he was getting nervous.
"I'm just going to see Summer out" he said nervously, walking past them.
Sandy laughed and Kirsten glared at him. "Maybe you two should have the talk…again"
"Yes, because it will do so much good. He's already had a baby. I don't think he's looking to have another, so I don't think they'll be doing anything…unprotected"
Kirsten felt like vomiting. Thinking of her baby boy like that was enough to unsettle her stomach.
"Sandy, please. The last thing he needs is two babies"
Sandy sighed. "Fine, I'll talk to him"
"Thank you" she said, leaning in for a kiss.
Upstairs
Summer silently clicked the door to the nursery closed, meeting Seth halfway down the hall. "Could that have been anymore embarrassing?" Summer said, not even stopping. She walked past him, making her way down the stairs.
"It wasn't that bad" he said, catching up with her. When she didn't stop walking, he gently grabbed her arm. "Summer, why are you so upset about what happened down there?"
As much as she wanted to blow it off, she couldn't. It was impossible for her to lie to him. He knew her to well.
"I just…your parents already think I'm a slut. I mean, I got pregnant and…"
"Summer stop it. They don't think you're a slut. What would make you think that?"
"Gee, dunno, getting pregnant when I was 17"
Seth sighed. "Summer, you didn't get pregnant by yourself" he said smiling. "I recall having something to do with it"
Summer rolled her eyes. "I'm gonna go. I'll come by tomorrow" she said, kissing him softly.
Seth closed the door and turned to his awaiting father. "Seth, your mother insists that we have the talk again. So…we've got to have the talk again"
Seth cringed. "Can't you just tell her that we had the talk?"
Sandy laughed. "Yeah I guess"
Sandy turned to leave, but Seth started talking. "I actually do need to talk to you about something, though. Something really…important"
"Oh god, Summer's pregnant again?"
Seth gave him a look, and Sandy left the topic alone.
"Ok, you've got my attention Seth" Sandy said. "What is it?"
Seth plopped down on the couch and stared up at his dad. "I've been thinking. This week has been so hard on me with Caden…but Summer goes through it all on her own…all the time. And I hate that she's having to do it alone"
Sandy sat. He knew what was coming, and he was trying to prepare himself.
"I think Summer…I think Summer and I should live together"

I couldn't help but write some more because I was bored. It's really not that big a cliffhanger, just a little one--lol. I'll write when I get back. Please review and thanks for reading!
