Marissa left the classroom, trailing off ryan from a distance until ren called her.
'hey wait up' he called as she stopped
'whats up...? why are you walking so fast? ren said as he saw ryan up ahead.
'oh...' he said
'as a matter of fact, I was not following ryan watching his every move just like anna over there...look at her, she needs to grow up' marissa rambled on.
'but i see YOU have noticed his everymove. how would you know anna is moving around with him?' ren said cautiously
marissa hesitated for a bit...
'because its so obvious...anyway, I have to get the spring dance ready for tomoro night...maybe ryan could help, because he DID help me with the pep rally bon fire and the sno.c dance...' marissa said very interested.
'marissa. no. cant you see he doesnt want anything to do with you?' ren said upset that all she talked about was ryan.
'YEAH BECAUSE OF YOU!' marissa yelled in the hallway
marissa stormed off over to summer, who was willing to give her a second chance as she held her hand out. marissa flung her hair at rens direction as she walked over to summer and seth who were following ryan and anna. Ryan looked back and saw marissa tagging along. He didnt know how to react but he brought a hidden smile on his face. For some reason, he wanted her to come...not out of pity but out of...love? no way...so he turned back to anna
ren was left standing there. alone.
They all headed to cafeteria tables and sat down. Marissa pulled up a chair and sat close to summer who was obviously almost on top of seth while they kissed and cuddled. Marissa didn't mind. As long as Ryan was in her sight…
'so you guys, you up for the spring dance?' seth said
'uh..ah…nah maybe next year man' ryan said obviously uncomfortable that marissa was watching him
'well we're going. Arent we cohen?' summer asked even though she had forced a answer upon him
'yeah of course' seth said kissing her on the forehead
'so are we still up for camp takajo?' seth asked curiously to summer
'yeah whatever…' summer said surrendering to seth's charms even though she dreaded the whole thing.
'well seth if you're going to the dance, maybe you could help me set it up. Ive got some props in the drama classroom if you could-' marissa said to seth, but wanting him to divert the help to ryan so he could help her.
'ah ok. When do you want me to help?' seth asked
The rest of the gang stared blankly at him.
'what?' seth asked
'you never want to do heavy lifting. Youd sell captain oats before you do anything involving carrying' summer said eyeing him
'well people change' seth said as he kissed summer.
Seth got up as marissa led him to the classroom. Marissa did a little wave to summer and ryan as she left. Butterflies filled her stomach.
'well, what do you want to do now chino?' summer said stranded as seth left her
'uh-' ryan said as anna interrupted
'me and ryan have to go buy tickets for the spring dance' anna added
Summer stared at ryan, obviously not impressed.
'I thought you weren't going?' summer asked ryan
'I wasn-' ryan said as another interruption by anna came
'yeah, well hes going with me, aren't you?' anna asked ryan as put her hand over her shoulder
Ryan could not say no as this was practically her last week here in newport.
'yeah sure' ryan said as anna pulled him up and they walked over to the stand to buy tickets
'yeah..thanks guys.' Summer said as she sat there alone… then someone came up to her and sat down.
'er..and who are you?' summer asked bitchly…
