Chapter 2: 2007
2016
Agent Reed was pissed. Scratch that. He was fucking pissed. That blasted Marissa told
him absolutely nothing. Well, except how her wedding went. He sighed. He knew this would have
happened. This was a tight knit group of friends. With many secrets. And the dead was a person
she cared for. It would take more then a couple hundred dollars to crack her. "If at first you don't
succeed, then another friend." Quickly, he dialled a familiar number. "Yes, hi. I'd like to speak
with the head of Hilsbury Publishing, please?" He waited for a moment, as the secretary
transferred him. "Good morning, Mr. CEO. I'm Agent Reed of the FBI. I questioned your friend
Mrs. Atwood recently about the murder of your dear friend. Yes, anyway, I was wondering if you
could answer a few questions for me. Won't take long." he finished with a sarcastic smile. "I'll
meet you at headquarters at 2 pm. Watch who you're dealing with." Dial tone. Reed calmly
placed the phone down. This was going to be interesting. Two pm rolled around, and a limo came
to a neat stop around headquarters. "Good day, sir. How are you?" Reed questioned. Silence.
"Not well I take it." Silence again. "You know, when you answer questions. You'll have to talk."
Silence once more. Soon they were in Reed's office. "Now, talk to me about that lovely year
known as 2007." "It was better than the year before I can assure you. A wedding, a baby. But,
you know as well I, good things come to an end."
FLASHBACK 2007
Marissa Cooper could not believe her luck. Today was the day she had been dreaming for.
Her wedding day was finally here. Happily, she stretched out of bed and looked out her window. Newport Beach smiled at her, basking in its summer glow. Nothing could possibly wreck this day.
Everything was perfect. She would marry the love of her life, Ryan. She would become Mrs.
Atwood. And, of course, Summer and Anna would be her maids of honour. Try as she might, she
couldn't pick one over the other. So she settled with both. Her thoughts were interrupted as
Summer and Anna themselves came running into her bedroom, with Kaitlin in tow. "Today's
finally here Coop! I can't believe you're marrying Chino!" Summer squealed. "And I can't believe
you still call him that." Anna sarcastically said. "Everyone has nicknames. You're Tinkerbell."
Summer replied. "Oh God." Anna muttered shaking her head. "So Marissa," Kaitlin interrupted,
"you decided against the crappy purple dresses that Mom absolutely loved. Right?" Leave it to
Kaitlin to even make a wedding sound like hell. "Yes Kaitlin." Marissa answered. "We already
went through this. All your dresses will be satin red. And not big or puffy." Kaitlin rolled her eyes
and nodded. Summer and Anna, sensing that Marissa did not want to deal with her sinister little
sister, immediately suggested that it was time to do hair and make-up. Because the wedding was
in six hours and everyone had to look great.
Meanwhile, Ryan Atwood was lounging in the pool house, happily staring at his favourite
picture of himself and Marissa: the one taken at the beach before senior year began. "Dude!" Seth
yelled, running into the pool house with Luke, "You're marrying Marissa today." Ryan looked up
at Seth, questioning his mental state. "He's clean and sober." Luke replied. "Just normal, sorry,
abnormal Cohen." Ryan smirked and took the bagel and coffee from his friend's hands. "It really
is the day, huh, Chino?" Ryan nodded, trying to ignore Seth's rambling about nothing in
particular. "Apparently the girls have already started getting ready. They threw Jimmy and Caleb
out of the house because of the 'no boys allowed' rule." "Summer's idea?" Ryan asked. "Yeah."
Luke replied. "Gentlemen," Sandy called out outside the pool house, "I suggest that we all start getting a move on. Or there will be no wedding."
Hours later, Marissa and Ryan were dancing together as husband and wife. Nothing was
better then this moment. As the dance ended, Summer pulled Marissa away. "Coop. There's a
problem." "Well, yeah." Marissa agreed. "I'm not Coop anymore." Summer looked at her best
friend skeptically. "Yeah you are. But that's not important. There's another problem." As
Summer whispered in Marissa's ear, Marissa's eyes grew wide. "No way." she breathed. "Yeah."
Summer said. "But it's great though?" "Of course." Marissa answered. "What is?" Anna asked as
she walked up to the pair. As Summer and Marissa told her, her jaw dropped. "That's amazing!"
Anna exclaimed. For the second time a voice asked "What is?" the girls whipped around and saw
Seth. Summer's face filled with glee as she threw her arms around him "Having a baby." At that
moment, Seth looked like a child on Christmas. He happily spun Summer around and around.
"Due in March." Summer said. Suddenly, police filled the reception hall. "What is the meaning of
this?" Kirsten cried in anger. "We're here to arrest Kaitlin Cooper."

"She was involved in a shooting and a drug bust. It was only a matter of time. But that
was the day my best friend got married. And I found out I was going to be a father. Nothing
could ruin that happiness." Seth finished. Reed nodded and thanked him. With that Seth Cohen
left the police station. "Gotcha." Reed whispered to himself.
