"Cohen? Summer? What are you doing here?" Marissa exclaimed "I thought you were going to stay at my house but your mom called and said you were going to be with Alex"
"We were crushed when you didn't call." Seth said putting his hand over his heart in a hurt manner.
"Yea Cohen she wanted to stay here so what is your problem?" Alex said in a defensive manner "Hey its ok Alex. They just want to make sure I am ok." Marissa smiled at the blonde.
"I know. Do you two want to come in?" the shorter girl said "Sure, So Coop when did you become friends with Alex?" Summer said.
"Soon after Alex broke up with Seth." Marissa replied "Ouch that hurt, Alex you know you hurt me. I think I could forgive you if you would kiss me." Seth said with an eager look.
"Dream on Cohen, I wouldn't be caught dead with you." Alex said half jokingly Seth puts his hand over his eyes and says "Ouch shot down again"
After a couple of hours Seth and Summer had to leave, they asked the pair to join them on Sunday night for dinner with Ryan and Lindsey. They agreed and the two were left in their apartment alone.
"That was strange" Alex said
"Yea I think they were up to more than they let on." Marissa replied
"Hey Alex?" Marissa said
"Yea Riss." the blonde haired beauty said
"Sometimes, I imagine the world without you but most times, I am just so happy I ever found you. Alex this is hard to say." Marissa said and Alex could detect nervousness
"Marissa did I do something wrong?" Alex said hoping that she hadn't
"No Alex you didn't do anything wrong. This is just hard for me to say"
"It is ok Marissa. You don't have to say anything to me." Alex replied
"No I have to because it is true." Marissa says as she puts her hands into her pockets
"Alex I Love you, I want to be with you forever." Marissa says
"Wow that isn't what I thought you were going to say" Alex said with a shocked look
"I knew I shouldn't have said that I am sorry but it is true." Marissa said with a sad look on her face
"No Riss." Alex says as she takes Marissa's hands into her own "I love you to and I want to be with you forever, Marissa Cooper will you be my Girlfriend?" Alex says eagerly awaiting the answer
"Yes Alex Kelly, I will be your girlfriend." The two wrapped their arms around each other in a hug.
"Does my Girlfriend want to go out to dinner to celebrate?" Alex said
"I don't know I wonder if my girlfriend wants to." Marissa said with a smile
'my girlfriend, that sounds so great' Alex thought little did he know at the same time Marissa was thinking the same thing.
"Lets go out to dinner." Alex said
"My treat to you Riss"
The pair went to Harbor Beach to eat dinner. Harbor Beach is one of Newport's finest restaurants\
"How may I help you lovely ladies tonight?" A overly excited waitress said
"I would like a candle lit table for two with the view of the beach for my Girlfriend and myself" Alex said
Marissa Blushed because no one had ever asked for a special table
When they were seated Marissa told Alex that she felt special to someone for the first time.
"I am sure Ryan had his moments" Alex said
"No actually, He was a bid headed egotistical jerk" Marissa said
"I would have never guessed, Can we not let Ryan ruin our first date?" Alex said pleadingly
"I know, I won't let him." Marissa said as she held Alex' hand.
The waitress walked over and said "Have you decided yet"
"Yes we have. We would like Two of your lobster dinners with a glass of red wine and a glass of water with a slice of lemon." Alex said
"Yes I will be right back with your drinks ladies" the waitress said and walked away
