Sandy has some concerns about Seth's relationship. TW for disturbing content/implications of child abuse that wouldn't be considered canon, some sexual content/discussion of sex.

Ryan has had a couple of rough weeks and after losing his cool at a Harbor soccer match, Sandy tries to talk to him.

A story of two boys who find comfort in each other One being the king of high school with everything. The other being a short fem-boy who steals his heart. And then you have the lesbian and gay best friends who get them together, since both are to dense to know when they are in love. Also can't forget the friend betrayals, love rivals and of course daddy issues (OC story)

Sandy and Kirsten reflect on their relationship with Ryan and the evening takes an unexpected turn

Cross posted to AO3. A slightly different take on episode 4x01. "Sandy, like I told Seth, you guys are better off without me." Ryan said numbly, his eyes devoid of emotion. "No, we aren't, Ryan. Do you have any idea how much we miss you? How worried we've been?"

Takes place during season 2, episode 21. "Honey," Kirsten said gently, her voice sounding concerned. There were tears were in Marissa's eyes and she looked afraid. Or: After what happened with Trey, Marissa finds herself at the Cohen household.

Alright. So, Seth and Ryan are going to watch the turtles hatch at the beach. I hope you enjoy. Please read and Review.

Takes place shortly after Trey is released from prison (The Brothers Grimm (2x17)). A completely different Trey then what we saw; one that would have been better for Ryan. It also shows Sandy and Kirsten as united couple/parents, and not how divided they seemed to be in the latter half of the second season. I've decided to continue this series.

Picks up at the last episode where Ryan and Taylor are looking at each other during Seth and Summer's wedding. Love story with smut thrown in for good measure!

When Ryan gets hurt at soccer practice, he can still always count on the Cohens to be there for him.

Marissa Cooper & Taylor Townsend are in a really tight spot! But can they get out of it?

A regular Saturday allows for quality Sandy/Ryan time and serves as a reminder of how deep Ryan's scars still are

Flashbacks can be very helpful. **I own nothing realted to The OC characters. Much love and props to Josh Schwartz**
