Ok guys I don't own anything of the o.c

Also thanks to all of you who have reviewed, I just wrote all these chapters at work, and now I'm submitting them all at once.

I got a little excited and wanted to see what you all think.

So far I have 21 chapters and I'm still going. In the future I change it up and bit and jump ahead a few years, but please continue reading I love your reviews!

Scene 12

Later that night at Holly's party, Ryan, Marissa, Seth, and Summer all chilled in the corner alone for a bit. Ryan's idea of a going away thing wasn't exactly a bunch of drunks all thrown together in a room, but just being with Marissa, Seth, and even Summer.

Ho: "Ryan…I'm really sad that you're leaving tomorrow! I think we should make the best out of tonight then. What do you think?"

Ry: "Holly, no offense but no thanks, I think I'll just hang over here." Ryan said pointing to the corner.

Ho: "Ok…But I know you'll be running to me later. Trust me, you'll be sick of Marissa in 2 weeks." Holly said snottily as she left the room, and walked out to the keg.

Ryan walked over to Marissa and handed her a drink.

Ry: "Hey you want to take a walk on the beach?"

Ma: "but this party is for you?"

Ry: "That's ok. Id rather just hang with you."

Marissa smiled and walked out to the beach with Ryan. She really liked Ryan but she wasn't sure what to do. He had already graduated high school a year earlier than her, and he was about to leave for Hawaii for almost 2 months. What was going to happen between then? Would he find some other slut, or will he go back to Brooke? Who was that girl who had been calling his cell all night?

Marissa was skeptical but she still really liked Ryan. Her gut was telling her, to hold on tight, and not let this one go. He actually had a future going for himself, and he wasn't planning on living off his trust fund. Ryan was different from the Newport snobs and that's why Marissa liked him so much.

Ma: "Ryan."

Ry: "Marissa." Ryan said laughing.

Ma: "where's this going?"

Ry: "if you mean my body? Its going to Hawaii, but my mind is staying here on you. I know you're thinking I'm going to shack up with some surfer girl, but trust me Marissa, I wish you were coming with me to Hawaii, the whole time. 2 weeks just doesn't seem to be enough time."

Ma: "I wish I could go with you the whole time too."

Marissa leaned into Ryan and he put his arm around her. he kissed the top of her forehead, and for the first time in a while things felt perfect. Ryan wasn't stressing out about Addison, and how he was going to get her food this week, and Marissa wasn't thinking about her popularity and all the things Holly was saying about her behind her back. She was happy, and with Ryan by her side she felt comfortable.

They stayed like that for a while until Ryan looked at his watch.

Ry: "I better go. I leave early tomorrow morning."

They stood up and walked toward the car. Ryan leaned against it and Marissa pushed her body up against him and kissed his lips passionately.

Ma: "I wish we could stay like this forever."

Ry: "wait till were on the beach in Hawaii." Ryan said grinning.

Ma: "ya! We can play volleyball!" Marissa joked.

They both jumped in the car and headed home.

The car ride home was silent. They were both thinking about the next morning and Ryan leaving. Ryan pulled into Marissa's driveway and leaned over and kissed her goodbye.

Ry: "a couple of weeks…"

Ma: "yup." Marissa smiled and hopped out of the car.

Once Ryan's SUV was out of sight Marissa smiled. That's what you think she thought.
