Author's Note: Hey Guys! I haven't updated in a long time and I'm very very sorry. I hope you like this chapter. I'm very insecure about it so if you do like it please leave a lil review. =)

Summer walked out of the classroom the words still in her head. Romeo and Juliet? Was she kidding? Some kind of sick joke? Her mind was furious she was already plotting all kind of ways Mrs. Barnett could commit "suicide". Her heart was a little curious though. Seth Cohen? Romeo?..Summer unconsciously smiled. He was pretty convincing today and that cute smile of his and when he looked at her like she was Juliet..

- "What are you smiling about?" asked Marissa walking up to her.

Summer stared at her for a moment then quickly changed her face into a frown.

-"Nothing" she said quickly.

Marissa raised her eyebrows but let it pass. Summer was smiling so rarely that might as well just let it be when she did.

Behind them Seth Cohen was walking with Anna Stern.

- "So you have to do the stupid play?" she was asking

- "Well it's not really a play its more like acting out some important scenes in the book, you know like skits."

- "Poor you" she said walking closer to him." They probably put you with some loser who's going to be drooling all over you."

Seth smiled at this.

-"Actually its not so bad" he said staring at Summer in front of him. Anna followed his eyes in confusion.

- "Seth?" she said.

He turned to her.

- "Yea, wanna go for lunch?"

He was in a good mood.

After the last bell rang the classroom doors opened and teenagers poured into the hallways anxious to leave. The school day was over. Ryan and Marissa were walking through the hallway, trying to push through the others.

- "You know I'm not so anxious to leave" said Ryan.

Marissa smiled.

-"Why is that?"

-"Because I get to be with you" Ryan leaned in for a kiss.

Summer, who happened to be standing near by, rolled her eyes. She walked up to them.

-"Aww you guys are so cute, you're the first couple on my most annoying list."

Ryan stared at her.

Marissa laughed.

-"She's just joking, aren't you Sum?"

Summer made a face but stayed quiet.

-"Hey Ryan, What do you think we go out after your soccer practice, get the party started, cause you know An.."

Seth noticed Summer and stopped talking.

Ryan made his questioning face.

-" Nothing never mind I just thought that, well there's a party and since we normally go to these things, well not that we go everyday but sometimes, like once a month, no once a week is more like it but you know it's a cool party and there's gonna be a lot of people there and cool music and" Seth noticed Marissa, Ryan and Summer all staring at him and realized he was rambling. He only did that when he was nervous. How was she doing that to him he wondered. She was just standing there quiet, but with attitude, not trying to impress him but somehow he found her so irresistible that now he was nervous and was rambling. Him! Seth Cohen! The Player. The Popular guy.

Ryan smiled.

- " Yea thanks I almost forgot what parties are like. Cant go. Soccer Game after school tomorrow. Have to be in good shape."

Seth nodded understanding.

-"I see, well." he looked at Summer " See you tomorrow."

-" Whatever Cohen. Coop I'm going to my locker."

Seth stared at her walking away. Then turned to Ryan and Marissa.

-"That's cool then I'll just come to your game. Bye Marissa."

-"Wow where did his cockiness disappear? For a second there I thought he was nervous or something. Is he still going out with Anna?"

- " No" said Ryan staring down the hallway. There were less people now." They never did go out. I don't think he even likes her."

- " I don't think your brother ever likes anybody."

Ryan looked at Marissa.

- "Are you gonna come to my game tomorrow?"

-"Wouldn't miss it for the world"

They started kissing.

The next day Summer decided to go to her English class and try not to think about Seth Cohen. Not that she thought of him at all. Summer was mad at herself. She felt she betrayed herself. It was a weird feeling. She didn't like being mad at herself so she decided to just be mad at Seth Cohen. After all its all his fault. He made her think of him. Hell he made every girl think about him. That's another thing that made Summer mad. She fell for his trap just like every other girl. He just started talking to her, smiled a little, did his best Romeo impression and she was already thinking about him. With these thoughts on her mind Summer walked in her English class. She wont think of him at all. She'll hate him just as she always did. She frowned. The bell rang, the students took their seats. Summer unconsciously looked at Seth's spot. He wasn't there. "So what?" she told herself. "He's always late." Still she kept looking at the door.

Mrs. Barnett looked around the classroom.

-" Ah I see our Romeo isn't here today. Well that's too bad."

Summer kept looking at the door. The only reason she wanted him there was for the play she told herself. Its just for the play. So caught up in her thoughts she didn't remember that the idea of doing a play with him originally made her furious. Summer sat back on her chair. "So Seth Cohen isn't here, big deal" she told herself.

Mrs. Barnett assigned another student to play Romeo for the day. They started the reading but after the first several lines Summer looked up to see if the teacher noticed just how bad the guy was doing.

Mrs. Barnett however had a normal look on her face and didn't seem to find anything wrong. Summer was surprised. "If Cohen was here he would've done it better", she thought." And that's the only reason I want him here." But he didn't show up and the class went by slowly. Summer was bored and had a weird feeling of sadness, almost like she was expecting this class to be good. Dare she admit to herself she was missing Seth Cohen?

The day went by slowly and Summer was in confusion over her feelings. After school she met up with Marissa.

- " I didn't like this day", announced Summer sitting down on a bench.

- " Really?" wondered Marissa. " What was bad about it?"

- " It just felt weird, you know. Not like other days."

Marissa stared at her.

- " What was different about it?"

Summer sighed.

- " I don't know. Whatever." She looked away.

Ryan walked up to them.

- " Hey, so I'll see you at the game right?" He bend down and gave Marissa a kiss.

She smiled.

- "Yup. I'll be there."

Ryan walked away and Marissa turned to Summer.

- " So what are you planning on doing?"

Summer was staring at Ryan walking away. " I should have asked him where the hell Seth Cohen was. How could he miss English?"

- " Summer?" asked Marissa.

- " Yea? Oh.. I don't know…"

Marissa never asked before because she knew Summer would never say yes but somehow she decided to try this time.

- " Wanna come to the game with me?"

Summer surprised her.

-"Sure, I got nothing better to do anyway." At this she stood up. Then she looked straight ahead and kind of froze at the spot. Marissa followed her eyes. Seth Cohen was standing by the front entrance talking to Anna Stern. She had her arms around him.

Summer turned around.

-" Well I'm gona go get something to eat. Coming?"

Marissa had a curious expression on her face. "First Cohen rambles and loses his cool around Summer, then Summer acts weird when seeing Cohen. Interesting.."

In an hour the game started and Summer and Marissa took their seats. Marissa had a very proud look on her face watching Ryan play. Summer looked bored. She looked around and suddenly spotted Anna Stern. Seth wasn't seen anywhere around.

- " Hey Maris, Im gona go get my jacket from my locker. Its windy."

She doubted Marissa heard her because somebody just scored and the crowd went nuts. Summer stood up. It really was windy. But she admitted to herself that it wasn't so much that she was cold, she just wanted to take a little walk. She walked in the school and headed for her locker. The hallways were empty and quiet. Summer opened her locker and looked at the little mirror on the side. She decided to pull her hair in a ponytail. She heard somebody walking and turned around.

-" So did Juliet by any chance miss her Romeo?" Seth Cohen was standing there smiling his winning smile at Summer. Despite being mad at him and herself and everything else Summer smiled.

-" Still conceited I see." she said.

" Ahh", said Seth, " I'll take that as a No. Well good cause I was worrying I'd make you sad and all but I guess now I can stop thinking about that."

Summer realized that what he said was actually close to the truth, she looked at him then turned away.

" You have no effect on me whatsoever. What are you doing here anyway? Shouldn't you be with Anna Stern?"

Summer wished she could take back her last question but it was too late. Seth smiled.

-"No" he said sitting down beside her locker and looking up at her" I'd rather be with you."

Summer raised her eyebrows.
