Chapter 13

The four are riding in Marissa's car to the hospital chatting about what they are doing with their lives.
Marissa: So Ryan, how's the architect business?
Ryan: We are doing really good right now, getting a lot of business. What about you what have you been doing?
Marissa: Well, I just got fired today because I told my boss that I couldn't come into work today. I've missed a week of work because Parker was sick.
Summer: That bastard fired you when your son was in the hospital?
Marissa: Yeah.
Summer: That's horrible!
Ryan: Where were you working?
Marissa: Abercrombie.
Ryan: You didn't finish out with college.
Marissa: No, I got pregnant so I just quit.
Ryan: You were so close to graduating though, weren't you.
Marissa: Yeah, but I don't know I just gave up on everything after that.
Seth: Well, I think it's great that you got fired because you can spend more time with us.
Marissa: Yeah, well it's great until I get kicked out of my apartment and have to move back in with my mom.

Ryan's phone rang and he looked at the caller id and it said Christie. He decided after a few rings to go ahead and pick it up because if he didn't she wouldn't quit calling.
Ryan: Hello.
Christie: Ryan, hey.
Ryan: Christie what do you want?
Christie: I really want to work this out Ry I'm really sorry for all I did to you. I know I have been a real bitch lately but you know how it is when I start drinking.
Ryan: You drank for three solid months everyday. You were a bitch everyday for three months. I don't have time to talk to you about this right now.
Christie: Are you at work, because if you are I can come up there and take you to lunch.
Marissa: (in the background) We're here. Come on guys let's let Ryan talk this out with her. Ryan we'll wait for you in the lobby.
She leans in and kisses him.
Ryan:(to Marissa) I'll be there in a minute.
Christie: Are you at the Cohens? I want to meet them now I could meet you there.
Ryan: Christie I'm in New York. I don't want to meet you anywhere I want you to move on because I am and you should too.
Christie: So, you can get over me that quick?
Ryan: Yeah, it wasn't real what I had with you I was just with you after a bad breakup and you were my getting over someone person. It never would've worked out with us. Go get some sleep and eat something and I will call you when I get back home.
Christie: But Ry I'm sorry I don't want us to be over. I love you!
Ryan: I'm sorry Christie but I don't love you. I gotta go they're waiting for me.

Ryan hangs up the phone and gets out of the car. He walks into the lobby and stands by everyone else.
Marissa: Ya'll ready?
All: Yeah.
They all walked to the elevator and waited for it to come down in silence. The elevator comes down they get in and Marissa pushes the button for the third floor.
Marissa: Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that Parker's doctor hit on me while I was visiting Parker earlier today. It was kind of creepy he was kind of cute though, but really really creepy.
Summer: Eww, your son's doctor hit on you? That is really creepy.
Ryan: How did he hit on you?
Marissa: He asked me what I was doing tonight. At first I didn't think it was that bad but the more I thought about it the more I saw how inappropriate it was. He kept trying to touch me and I would just move or something.
Ryan: Yeah. That is really inappropriate.
The elevator stopped and the doors opened.
Ryan: What room is it?
Marissa: 315. There's that doctor.

They walked out of the elevator and they walked twords Parker's room.
Doctor: Hey Ms. Cooper. Are these the friends that came into town for you today?
Marissa: Yes, this is Summer, Seth, and Ryan.
He shook everyone's hands and stared at Summer.
Doctor: I'm Doctor Keets.
Everyone: Nice to meet you.
They were all very uncomfortable.
Doctor Keets: Summer, that's a beautiful name. You're my favorite season.
Summer looked over at Seth and grabbed his hand. She whispered into his ear, "That guy really is creepy." Seth just nodded his head at her.
Marissa: Is Parker awake?
Doctor Keets: Yes, he still has a little fever and he's in a little bit of a bad mood.
Marissa: Why does he have a fever?
Doctor Keets: Well, he just went through surgery. It's normal for him to have a little fever it should be gone in a couple of hours.
Ryan: Come on honey. We should go in.
Ryan grabbed Marissa's hand.
Marissa: Okay, well it was nice to see you again doctor.
Doctor Keets: Nice to see you again too and nice to meet ya'll.
They all walked into the room and Parker sat up in the bed.
Parker: Summer!
Summer: Hey buddy! I told you to stop growing until I came to see you again.
Summer walked over to him and kissed him on his head.
Parker: I tried but it didn't work!
Marissa: Hey babe, how ya feeling?
She walked over to him and kissed his cheek and felt his head.
Parker: I feel fine mom why do you keep asking me?
Summer: Hey this is my husband Seth.
Parker: Hi Seth.
Seth: Hey buddy.

Seth looked at Summer and whispered into her ear, "He looks just like Ryan!"
Summer: Yeah, I know! He didn't look this much like him the last time I saw him.
Ryan: Hi Parker, I'm Ryan.
Ryan went over to him and put his hand out and Parker shook it.
Parker: Hey Ryan. You have the same hair as me!
Ryan: Yeah, I noticed that.
He gave Parker a big smile. He felt like he was going to cry. He had to know if this was his son.
Ryan: Marissa, can I talk to you outside for a moment.
Marissa: Yeah, is something wrong?
Ryan: No, I just need to ask you something in private.
He walked out the door and she followed behind him. She shut the door and he hugged her tightly and let tears fall out of his eyes. Marissa just ran her fingers through his hair saying over and over, "It's okay, it's going to be fine." Ryan looked into her eyes and saw that she was crying too.

Ryan: I love you so much and I know I will love Parker, but I gotta know if he's mine I just gotta know I'm sorry.
Marissa: I love you too Ryan and I understand completely why you need to know.
Ryan: It's nothing about you I just have to know. I have a pretty good idea that he's mine but I look at him and I see Oliver. I just can't help it. I need to know.
Marissa: I understand. It's fine when I looked at him for the first time I saw Oliver all over his face too.
Ryan: Do you think that they can do the test while he's in the hospital?
Marissa: I'm sure they could. We can go ask his doctor right now.
Ryan: Thanks.
Marissa and Ryan walked hand in hand down to where Dr. Keets was.
Marissa: Hi Dr. Keets can I ask you a favor?
Dr. Keets: Uh, sure Ms. Cooper.
Marissa: Well, can we do a paternity test on Ryan and Parker.
Dr. Keets: Well, of course we could do it right now and find out in 24 hours.
Marissa: Thank you so much Dr. This would mean a lot to us both.
Dr Keets: It's no problem. Just go into his room and I will bring the stuff to you.
Ryan: Thanks a lot.
Dr. Keets: You don't have to thank me really. It's my job to do as my patients wish, or in this case my patients parents.

They walked away and Dr. Keets went to go get the things he needed.
Marissa: I still think that guy is creepy, I don't care how nice he is.
Ryan laughed and gave her a kiss on the cheek. They walked into Parker's room and Parker was crying.
Marissa: What's the matter honey?
Parker: I w-w-want my mommy.
Marissa: Honey, I'm right here.
Ryan walked over to Seth.
Ryan: What's going on?
Seth: I don't know he just started crying after ya'll left.
Marissa: It's going to be okay baby mommy's here.
Parker settled down a little and his cries turned into soft sobs. Dr. Keets walked in and gave them a smile.
Dr. Keets: Is he okay?
Marissa looked up at him.
Marissa: Yea, I think his fever is just getting to him is all.
Dr. Keets: Well, I have to put this swab in his mouth so you think he'll let me do that?
Marissa: Parker, look at mommy. The doctor needs to check something it's not going to hurt you just need to open your mouth. Do you think you could let him do that?
Parker: You swear it won't hurt?
Marissa: Yes, I swear.
Parker: Okay.

Dr. Keets walked over and Parker opened his mouth as wide as it would go. He rubbed the swab around in his mouth and Parker started giggling.
Parker: It tickles mommy.
Marissa: See, I told you it wouldn't hurt.
Dr. Keets: Okay Ryan, now I need you to open your mouth.
Ryan: Okay.
Ryan opened his mouth and Dr. Keets rubbed the swab around in his mouth.
Parker: Is he sick too?
Dr. Keets: No I just need someone else's to compare your's too.
Parker: Oh, okay well I hope he's okay.
Ryan: I'm fine buddy. Hey I brought you something.
Parker: Oh, YAY! What is it?
Ryan pulled something out of his pocket. It was a chain that Ryan's mom had given him as a little boy. He wore that chain from the time she gave it to him until he was 15. It had a gold cross on the bottom. Ryan really loved that necklace but when he got older he realized that he wanted to give it to his son when he had one so he wanted to keep it in good shape.

Ryan: It's a chain my mom gave me when I was about your age. If I give this to you, you have to promise that you'll take good care of it.
Ryan put the chain around his neck and Parker looked at him and gave him the smile that could just melt your heart.
Parker: For me! Thanks a lot Ryan! I'll take real good care of it I swear.
Ryan kissed Parker on the head.
Ryan: I know you will buddy.
Marissa gave him a big smile with a tear coming down her cheek.
Parker: Mommy, what's wrong?
Marissa: Nothing mommy's just happy.
Summer walked over to Marissa and gave her a big hug.
Parker: Mommy, I'm sleepy. I'm going to go to sleep now. I will see you tommorrow.
Right after he said that he laid his head down and fell asleep. The four walked out of the room and walked out to Marissa's car. They got in the car and rode back to Marissa's in silence. They got to Marissa's apartment and went inside.
Seth: Well, that was intense.
Summer: Yeah, who knew Ryan was the sensitive type.
Seth: I sure didn't.
Ryan: Shutup!
Seth: Man, I knew that wouldn't last.
Ryan: Not to you.
Seth: Hey Marissa, that was me ignoring you by the way. Do you have any good movies?
Marissa: I don't know they are all by the t.v.
Seth: Great! I bet you have some good ones!

Marissa laughed knowing he was being sarcastic. Seth walked over there and started looking through all the movies.
Seth: All you have is kiddie movies!
Marissa: Yeah, well I don't get to see a lot of movies that aren't kiddie movies.
Seth: OHHH YEAH I FOUND ONE!
Marissa: What?
Seth pulled the dvd twords him and put it in the middle of all the others.
Seth: You'll see.
He put it in and the screen popped up saying Finding Nemo. Ryan laughed and everyone just stared at him.
Ryan: Inside joke, nevermind. Hey you still want to go home Seth?
Seth gave him a smile and walked over to Summer and kissed her.
Seth: Nope, not anymore.
They settled down after Marissa made some popcorn. Ryan and Marissa were laying together on the couch and Seth and Summer were laying on the floor. They all fell fast asleep.
