Author's Note

Thanks very much to all those who have reviewed. I thank you very much and encourage you to continue. It really helps a lot.

Also 1 reviewer asked if Seth and Summer will be getting back together. This definitely WILL NOT happen. They MIGHT become friends again but that's as far as they will go.

Anyways here's the next chapter.

Recap

Seth and Summer have split up

Seth is at a charity ball

Important terminology

Als (pronounced Alz): Seth's nickname for Alex that I made up

Chapter 3: Who is that stunner?
Seth was again all alone. He honestly couldn't find a legitimate reason why he had been convinced by his family to even be here.

Ten minutes later…

Seth decided by this time that enough was enough. He would get out of here. So he got up from his seat and headed to the exit. However on his way there his attention was grabbed by a blonde teen about his age in a glorious green dress Versace by design. 'Who is that stunner?' he thought to himself.

He was that caught up in the moment that he didn't realise that stunner was running straight for him. 'Does she know me?' he thought as she came up and embraced him warmly.

"Seth it's been a long time hasn't it?"

That voice. Could it be? Alex?

"Alex is that you?" he asked.

"Of course it is who were you expecting. The boogie woman" she replied with a very wide smile on her face.

"I just can't believe its you. I mean you've changed so much since the last time I saw you and that seems like a long time ago now."

"Well" she replied "what's been happening since I've been gone?"

"A fair bit actually but I better give you the bad news first. Als, Marissa and Ryan are back together."

"Oh is that all…"

"No that actually isn't" he interrupted. "Summer and I also broke up. Permanently."

Alex was shocked. She was sure he and Summer were gonna be together for life. Strangely enough though she felt a lot better that Summer was out of the picture. It was like she was relieved she didn't have to compete with her for Seth's attention. But why was she thinking that way. "You gotta be the comforting friend' she told herself.

"I'm really sorry Seth" she said. "I know how close the two of you were"

"Hey don't worry about it. It's finished. Now what do you say we go and have some fun tonight?"

"Oh yeah! C'mon lets dance" she said as they both raced to the dance floor.
