Chapter 26

Seth was sitting on the couch with Summer, who was asleep. Seth was still thinking of her kissing Luke. He told her he forgave her but he couldn't really get past it. He kept thinking what if Luke wasn't the first guy she kissed behind his back. He was having a really hard time concentrating and sleeping. It played in his mind over and over everytime he closed his eyes. Summer wakes up and looks over at him. She knew something had been bothering him but he wouldn't tell her what was wrong with him. She was really worried that there was something wrong with him.
Summer: Hey, is something bothering you?
Seth: I was just thinking.
Summer: About what?
Seth: You and Luke I know I said that it doesn't bother me but I guess it does.
Summer: Seth, I know it's going to be hard for you to forgive me and I understand. Just know that I didn't want that kiss he forced himself on me and if you wouldn't have walked in.. I don't know what would have happened.
Seth: What are you saying? Was he trying to rape you?
Summer: I think he was. I don't know for sure.

Seth felt a wave of rage shoot through his body. He knew Luke was a creep but he didn't know he would stoop that low. He felt so bad that he was so mad at her and didn't believe her. He put his arm around her and started kissing her.
Seth: I'm so sorry.
Summer: Seth, it's fine. No need to apologize really. I would've been just as pissed at you if I caught you in that situation.
Seth: Yeah, I guess your right and you wouldnt have listened to me either. You probably would have gave me a black eye.
Summer: Yeah, probably. So how do you think Ryan is doing?
Seth: You know, not good. How would you feel if your mom died?
Summer: I meant like is he going to be okay.
Seth: Well, he has us and Marissa and Parker. I think he should be okay after awhile. It's going to be hard for a while but he'll get over it someday.
Summer: Yeah, I mean he can't be all that sad about it. I mean she did abandon him and left him with people he barely knew.
Seth: She did what she thought was best for him.
Summer: I know but it couldn't have been easy on him all those years living with you guys.
Seth: Thanks Summer.
Summer: You know what I meant.
Seth: Yeah, I know. How's Coop doing?
Summer: She's doing good. How many times do I have to tell you not to call her Coop?
Seth: Sorry, I meant Marissa. She really doing good with the move and all.
Summer: Yeah, I guess so. The kids still asleep?
Seth: Yeah they are sleeping. They've had a long day.
Summer: Yeah it's been really stressful.
Seth: Yeah, I know what you mean. I can't believe that they are going to a wake. It all sounds so scary. Like the dead is just going to wake. Why don't they call it a sleep? A very very long sleep.
Summer: Shutup! You're such a tool.
Seth: So you keep saying.
Summer: Only because you are. Have been since high school.

Summer: Have you seen Taylor around? She's been acting totally weird lately.
Seth: Weird for Taylor that's like psycho for normal people.
Summer: Yeah, I know what you mean. She's been acting paranoid and stuff.
Seth: Well, you know Taylor she's always got something going on with her. Maybe she's doing drugs or something.
Summer: Hmm.. Maybe she is doing drugs.
Seth: I was kidding.
Summer: Well, I'm not.
Seth: She really acting that weird.
Summer: Yeah, I don't know maybe she's just being Taylor.
Seth: Taylor has and always will be Taylor. She's like her own race of people. Have you even talked to her.
Summer: Yeah, I talked to her at the market the other day. She called to ask about a charity event that she's running.
Seth: So is she head Newpsie now?
Summer: Yeah, she was wondering if I could help her plan it all out.
Seth: What are you like head Newpsies bitch?
Summer: Do you want me to have a rage blackout?
Seth: Uh, okay change of subject. Ryan and Marissa really are really happy. I haven't seen them happy since the wedding.
Summer: Yeah, I know. They're like two totally different people.
Seth: It's really great to finally see them happy. I can't believe after all these years they are really together. I thought Ryan would marry Christie and that would be the end of it.
Summer: Yeah it all seems so fast though. Don't you think it's a little fast? They got back together and like two days later they get engaged.
Seth: Well, when it's true love you can't wait and it's not like they don't know each other. They have known each other since high school. Do you think that if we hadn't seen each other in years and we saw each other for two days you'd say, "No I can't marry you!"
Summer: No, I guess not I just don't want to see them rush into a marraige and have it fail.
Seth: Don't worry your pretty little head. I see a bright future for them. It's really bright.
Summer: Why must you be sarcastic all the time?
Seth: I wasn't being sarcastic. I really think they will make it, at least I hope they do because I love seeing them happy.
Summer: Me too. I remember when Ryan was like a zombie he didn't eat, sleep, or talk to anyone. Everytime I saw him I had to go to the other room because I didn't want to cry in front of him.
Seth: That was after Marissa didn't call him after the wedding.
Summer: How did you manage to snap him out of it?
Seth: I don't really know. One night I just told him that if she didn't call then they weren't meant to be and he should just get over it and move on. The next morning he called and asked me to come to breakfast and he sounded happy.
Summer: I didn't know that you were so persuasive.
Seth: I am my father's son. Maybe I should have been a lawyer.
Summer: No you aren't much of the office type.
Seth: Yeah, you're probably right. I probably had nothing to do with it he probably just decided to stop sulking and start living.
Summer: Wow, that was deep.
Seth: I have my moments.
Summer: Well, I'm tired. How 'bout an afternoon nap?
Seth: Sounds good to me.
Summer: Are we going to the funeral tommorrow?
Seth: Yeah, we are all going. I was thinking of getting a babysitter tommorrow to watch all the kids while we are out.
Summer: What about my dad?
Seth: Yeah, but he wouldn't want to take all four of them. He's got enough to keep him busy all day with your stepmom and he's probably working anyways. I am not leaving our kids with just your stepmom.
Summer: I see your point.
Seth: Yeah, so nap time?
Seth stands up and grabs Summer's hand to pull her up. She stands up and they go into the bedroom and lay down and fall asleep in each other's arms. Seth was still very upset but he could finally get some real sleep.
