He'll Be Back
Chapter Six
"Cohen you messed up,"
" I get that," Seth sighed, " I just don't understand why I am allowed in your pants if you're still angry with me."
"God," Summer turned away from him again. It had been a mistake. She should have slammed the door in his face. Instead they were both lying naked in her bed after having hot sex. " That was for me, you are being punished but I can't use abstinence because, Cohen I went over two weeks with out sex. That is the longest since we first got together that I have ever gone."
"So you're using me for my body."
"Well, we could be more specific than that," Summer said seductively.
"I don't mean to act like a moral prick, but…"
"Shut up butt head, " Summer said kissing him again.
"I'm serious," Seth said breaking the kiss and sliding off the bed.
"Hey," Summer cried as Seth scooped up his clothing from the floor. She watched him pull his pants up and smiled despite herself as he jumped up to get his pants over his butt. He bent and picked up the flowers and placed them on her vanity.
"I realize that you are mad at me, but I don't want to be jerked around. Call me when you're done being pissed."
"Seth, " she yelled, but he had already closed the door behind him. He had just turned the situation around. Instead of him crawling back to her, she was going to be the one on her knees.
"Summer? " her step monster asked from the other side of the door. "Who was that?" Summer grabbed the covers and pulled them over herself as the door flew open. Her step-mom gasped and Summer looked around her room to see what conclusion she was drawing. It was probably the right one. Her duvet cover was pulled off and the floor was strewn with the clothes Summer had just been wearing. Summer touched her hair nervously and groaned, it was a mess, it was an after sex tousled look.
"Well I guess that answers my next question," her step mother laughed. " I'm sure your father would like to know what a lovely daughter he has, having sex in the middle of the afternoon. Is he even you boyfriend?"
"Get out of my room please," Summer said in a strained voice trying to keep her temper even.
"It is simply disgusting that you have such little self respect."
"Thanks Oprah," Summer spit venomously.
"Slut," her step-monster shot back and with that she walked out of the room. Summer flopped her head back to her pillows. She had too much to worry about.
Seth skated slowly home with his ipod in one hand, thumbing the spin wheel and scrolling through songs, as he moved through blocks of large houses. Suddenly out of nowhere a silver convertible flew past. It was then thrown into reverse and with a high-pitched whine the car speed backwards towards Seth. He quickly got into the well-groomed crab grass next to the road and the passenger side window was lowered as the car came to a rest in front of him.
"Get in"
"I am content to walk, thank you," Seth said as he dropped his board around the back of the car and rode down the median.
"Stop being stubborn, get in the car you dumb ass," she yelled, lowing her driver's side window, and following at the same speed he was moving.
" I am not being stubborn I am being principled, I don't want to sell my body like a hooker for a ride home."
" Geez, someone has a big ego. We need to talk." She lowered the roof and the windows.
"Look if we are really going to talk fine, " Seth said running around and opening the passenger side door while the car was still moving. "First we're getting something to eat,"
Summer sped up and drove out of the neighborhood.
They sat with a large fast food bag on each of their laps. Summer opened her second hamburger and finished it in five huge bites,
"Hey are you planning on chewing?" Seth asked swallowing and washing it down with some coke.
She took some time to chew and swallow, massaging her sternum as she took deep sips from her straw. " Do you have any more mustard?"
"Yes, I always keep an extra bottle in my back pocket in case I stumble upon a discarded scrap of meat in the rubbish bin.'
"I wouldn't put it past you to eat out of the garbage,"
"Ouch," Seth said laughing. They sat eating in silence. "I missed this,"
"Hamburgers?"
"Yes I missed processed meat,"
"Seth I don't want to get walked all over," Summer sighed.
"You think that picking up where we left off will do that?"
"Seth it's not fair to leave someone and expect a warm welcome,"
"I was gone for 12 days," he cried.
"Yeah, but it felt like more, besides how was I supposed to know you would be back at all?"
"Well I'm back now and I am really sorry, you are only driving one point home, I left, look I'm here now," Seth reeled out. He leaned forward and caught her lips with his. She automatically deepened the kiss.
"Are you still mad?" He asked once they had separated.
"Yes, but I think I'll get over it," Summer said as leaned in for another kiss. Seth blindly put his paper bag on the floor of the car. Summer knocked hers off her seat and leaned over Seth, putting one leg over the console and in between Seth's legs she forced him onto the headrest. She straddled him and pulled the lever on the side of his seat making Seth completely horizontal. "That's better," she said sitting and looking down on him.
"You can't get enough of me!"
"Nope," she said as she kissed him again.
She drove up the Cohen's drive way and turned off her car. He picked up his skateboard and loosely held the door latch. "Do you want to come in?" Seth offered hopefully.
She looked over at him and sighed, She reached over and grabbed her purse from the back and they both got out.
