In just over an hour, Ms Summer would become a Mrs Summer. So why was she in tears in her bed, destroying pictures of Zach? Seth returned home after delivering the tape to Summer. He went straight into the pool house to find a very shocking scene- Ryan on top of Marissa shirtless. "Omg. Holy awkard. Im sure friends shouldn't kiss each other with their shirts off? Or have I missed too much by focusing on getting back with Summer?". Before either could explain, Seth walked out of the pool house. This sure was a very interesting day in Orange County.
Julie had decided to embark on an affair with Neil Roberts, Summer's dad earlier that day. She seduced Neil just like she seduced Caleb. But little did Julie know that she was walking on very dangerous territory. The secret brought out Summer's step mother, Jackie Roberts a tall, thin figure with long brunette locks. She saw Julie in the living room. "Julie?". A stunned Julie stood up. "Hey Jackie! I was just coming over to congratulate Summer. Where is she?". "Thats a very good question actually. Summer get down here!" shouted Jackie. "I dont want to! Later at the wedding!". "If she doesn't get her butt down her, there will be no wedding" muttered Jackie.
A pre-wedding event was going on in Sandy and Kirsten's bedroom. In which case, making out. "I missed doing this. I guess we got caught up in so much drama" said Kirsten. "Yep. ME too". They got back to their making out business but then Sandy saw Destiny's face instead of Kirsten's. He paused. "We're gonna be late for the wedding I think" said Sandy, standing up. "Um ok, I guess so" answered Kirsten. "Let's go everyone! Wedding time!".
As Seth was getting ready, Ryan and Marissa came into his room. "I suppose you want to make out in my room next? Make a souvenir of where you make out in the Cohen house? Maybe I'll give it to Lindsay for her birthday" said an angry Seth. "Seth I was going to break it off with Lindsay today" said Ryan. "Then why didnt you just break it off with her in Europe?. "Good question actually" Marissa butted in. "I couldnt. It would be too humiliating". "We really trust u with this Seth" said Marissa. Seth nodded, "OK" and left the room. "What does that mean?" asked Marissa.
Wedding bells had rung and Summer was ready to walk down the aisle. The whole gang was there. When it came to the I DO part, thats when things got interesting. Summer had paused. "SUmmer are you OK?" asked Zach. Summer didnt answer. It took her nearly two minutes to speak. "I dont" she said. There was a gasp in the audience. "What? Why?" asked a very shocked Zach. "I have a pretty good idea what this is about" muttered Seth. "You wanna no why Zach, u cheating bastard! Thats right, Zach was cheating on me with that slut Vanessa! You broke my heart Zach and Im gonna swear you'll pay for it". She had left the church but not before giving Zach a well deserved punch.
The gang was out searching for Summer. Seth found her in a very unlikely place. In his house, by the pool, on the spot where they kissed for the first time. "Wow. Memories" shouted Seth out. Summer turned around. "Rosa let me in". "She spoke?" asked Seth. "Hardly she nodded". "Ah, that's no surprise around here" smiled Seth. Summer smiled back and walked towards Seth. They kissed just like they kissed at Caleb's birthday party.
Newport Beach residents were still reeling from the non Summer and Zach wedding and Seth and Summer getting back together.
The day in the Cohen household began like any other... usually a cup of coffee or juice and ultimately... bagels.
"5 people on the table, who was the odd one out?" thought Kirsten as she walked into the kitchen, getting ready for work.
Sat on the table were Hailey, Seth, Ryan, Sandy... and Destiny. Destiny stood up to wish Kirsten good morning.
"Good morning, Kirsten" smiled Destiny.
Kirsten was still acting cold with Destiny and ignored her and turned to Seth and Ryan.
"So... Seth back together with Summer?" she smiled.
Disappointed, Destiny sat back down.
"Yup, thats whats been going around. You're a little behind on the gossip, mom".
Kirsten turned to Ryan, "Are things OK with you and Lindsay?"
Ryan smiled, "Yeah they're great".
Seth had put on a fake smile even though he was covering up for the fact Ryan and Marissa were going behind Lindsay's back.
At Harbour, things had turned really awkward when Summer, Seth and Zach were paired up for a History project.
"Oh no" muttered Summer.
"Gonna be some holy awkwardness tonight" murmured Seth in a hushed tone.
Meanwhile, Julie had enough money out of Neil to rent in at the Mermaid Inn. She had took Neil with her.
"Neil, we have to keep this low key or Jackie will go all crazy Carmen Electra in Scary Movie style" whispered Julie.
"Dont worry, I'll keep it low" answered Neil as they got back to business.
That evening, Jackie had been waiting for Neil- he was already 3 hours late. She had gotten suspicious.
Neil came home at 10pm and Jackie was waiting for him in the kitchen.
"Where have you been Neil?" asked a frustrated Jackie.
"Well me and the boys had a bit of a get-together after the meeting. Im here all day tomorrow" smiled Neil as he leaned in for a kiss.
"That's a shame Neil, you know Im working tomorrow" said Jackie.
She left the room as Neil breathed a sigh of relief. Not just for himself, but for Julie as well.
Meanwhile, Summer was staying the night at Marissa's house. They had a girly night in, pillow fights, gossiping and boy chats.
"Marissa I have a secret and you soo hav to keep it!" said Summer.
"Cross my heart Summ, I can keep secrets" said Marissa.
"I thinking im pregnant. With Zach's baby" Summer blurted out.
Marissa gazed at Summer, stunned.
"OMG, you are what?" replied Marissa to Summer's shocking revelation.
"IM pregnant. With Zach's baby" Summer repeated.
"Wait. You never told me you had sex with Zach!" said Marissa.
"He was forcing me to keep it. I dont know what to do. I cant have an abortion- that's totally wrong, Coop" Summer was faced with a dilemma.
"Anyway, Coop what about your secret?" Summer was trying to start a whole new different conversation.
"Well, you cannot tell LINDSAY at all! But Im dating Ryan again" Marissa was smiling hoping to get the same reaction from Summer. The reaction she got was totally different.
"YOU and Ryan again? Coop, that's totally wrong! What if Lindsay finds out, she's gonna freak!"
"Whatever, Summ. Its not like your situation is freaky".
"OK, if my situation is freaky then your situation is just totally eww. Im gonna go get food".
Summer was disappointed in herself. And Marissa. She left the room to get some fresh air and food.
The following night, the awkwardness was on when Summer and Zach met up at Seth's house for their History project.
No-one had made a noise in Seth's room, they just carried on with work.
"Zach why did you do it?" said Summer finally breaking the silence.
"Cheat on you?" asked Zach, wondering what other mistakes he had done in the relationship.
"Why? Did you create some more errors?", Seth shouted out aloud, "What do you think Captain Oats?", he turned to the horse and pretended to communicate with it, "Captain Oats is giving you the benefit of the doubt".
"Shut up Cohen!" shouted Summer trying to get an answer from Zach.
"Whatever. Im off. This is too awkward. Im gonna ask for a different partner tommorow". Zach stood up, collected his things and left the room.
Elsewhere, while Neil was taking a night shift (or was he really?), Jackie was looking for clues around the house as to why Neil was acting weird. She looked under the bed to find a black bra. Jackie looked at the size- it wasnt her size.
"That son of a bitch is having an affair!" she concluded.
Jackie had spent nearly all night crying as she threw the bra into the bin with rage. She didn't sleep as she was planning her revenge on Neil. However, a thought had crossed Jackie's mind- whose bra was it?
During the weekend, Ryan spent most of it at Caleb's mansion, making out with Marissa.
"I still cant believe we're doing this" whispered Marissa in between kisses.
Ryan kept thinking of Marissa as Lindsay and paused.
"I dont think I can do this anymore" he said sitting up.
"I get it. You love Lindsay more than me, right?" said Marissa.
"Its not that. I mean imagine how Lindsay will feel if we told her. She's got enough secrets thrown at her".
At the same time, a knock came at the door.
"Who is it?" asked Marissa out loud.
"It's Lindsay. Im just dropping off the lipstick and the purse i borrowed" replied Lindsay.
Ryan was panicking and decided to hide in Marissa's closet. Marissa stood up and opened the door.
"Thanks Lindsay" smiled Marissa.
"Um OK. I'll see ya Monday" Lindsay could sense Marissa's fear and left.
"Omg that was so close" shouted Marissa leaning against the door.
"You see what the consequences are?" said Ryan stepping out of the closet.
Marissa was laughing, "What?" asked Ryan.
Marissa continued to laugh, "One of my bra's are on your head!".
A new week began at Harbor and the quadra plus Lindsay walked up the steps into the hallway. Seth, Lindsay and Ryan were feeling the tension between Marissa and Summer.
"Is someone hiding a secret here? Cos right now you two would be laughing and telling jokes" said Lindsay.
"Its not my fault. Summer's just being a complete whore right now" said Marissa.
Summer laughed, "Classic Coop replies. Its not my fault you were a born a slut, Coop".
"Im not the one who is pregnant with Zach's baby!" shouted Marissa. Everyone was now watching.
"Well Im not the one who is sneaking behind Lindsay's back! Thats right Lindsay, Ryan and Marissa are going at it day and night behind your back!" bellowed Summer.
For every teenager standing in the hallway of Harbor, it felt like the world had stopped.
Secrets were revealed, mainly because of an argument between Marissa Cooper and Summer Roberts. They had unleashed so much pain on Seth, Ryan and Lindsay.
Summer stood in front of Seth.
"Seth Im so sorry I didnt tell you. It was so recent, it just all went by so fast!" said Summer.
Seth didnt say a word to Summer. He just got Captain Oats out of his backpack and held it in front of Summer's eyes. He left her.
Ryan tried to explain all to Lindsay.
"I have nothing to say to you. You've broken my heart one too many times" replied Lindsay.
A river of tears were now flowing from Lindsay's eyes. She left to go to her lesson as Summer ran after Seth to pick up the pieces. Marissa was left in the hallway. No-one had cared for her anymore. She didnt realise everything around her could change in just 10 minutes.
Jackie had decided to follow Neil around like a puppy dog and she followed him around the mall.
"OMG The perfume lady! There's no way Neil can like her better than me. She has a big pink blob on her chin!" thought Jackie as she saw Neil flirt with the perfume lady.
Jackie had targeted the wrong suspect. Neil was buying perfume for Julie.
"That whore has no idea who she is dealing with" muttered Jackie, leaving the building.
Sandy had come home late that evening. Kirsten was by the pool seeking comfort in Seth's iPod and a bottle of red wine.
Sandy crept up behind her and massaged her shoulders.
"Dont try and make it up to me Sandy. We were supposed to have dinner tonight" said Kirsten in her angry tone.
"I was working with..." Sandy gut cut off by Kirsten.
"With Destiny?"
"Yes. And if you have a problem with that..." he got cut off once again.
"I do have a problem with that" Kirsten said.
"What am I gonna do? Quit this job? I need to provide for this family, Kirsten" answered Sandy.
"We have had this conversation loads of times Sandy! This family has what it has! We dont need anything esle!".
"We need to fix this marriage" answered Sandy.
"I didnt destroy it!" shouted Kirsten.
"Dont try and blame this on Destiny. Im tired and im not up for fighting" Sandy left the garden leaving Kirsten enraged. So she took Ryan's advice on how to be calm- play video games.
Every person's life in The OC was destroyed, ripped apart.
Ryan had Marissa and Lindsay in his life. Right now, he had neither of them.
Seth believed Summer had betrayed him- but who was wrong and who was right?
Lindsay was planning her Newport escape. Too many people had betrayed her.
