Okay the new dude will return next chapter – maybe. This chapter is just about the Cohen's maybe calling the Cooper's and seeing Julie's reaction of finding out Ryan and Marissa are gone – and also just some Ryan and Marissa fluff.

Chapter 4 ---

Love is a wonderful thing.

When you're in love there's not a better feeling.

To know someone will be there for you.

For better or for worse.

In sickness and in health.

And if their not –

They were probably not in love with you to start with.

But young love was always the best.

And Ryan and Marissa's love was young love.

It was the perfect scene Ryan and Marissa sitting on the couch with ice-cream and watching a movie that they BOTH wanted to watch.

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands,
Honored to love you,

'Do you like me?' Marissa asked.

'Not really'

'Do you want me?' She asked

'No'

'Would you cry if I left?'

'No'

'Would you live for me?'

'No'

'Would you do anything for me?'

'No'

'Choose--me or your life.'

'my life'

Marissa looked at Ryan, 'Well what the hell are we doing here then?' He says.

'The reason you never cross my mind is because you're always on my mind.'

'The reason why I don't like you is because I love you.'

'The reason I don't want you is because I need you.'

'The reason I wouldn't cry if you left is because I would die if you left.'

'The reason I wouldn't live for you is because I would die for you.'

'The reason why I'm not willing to do anything for you is because I would do everything for you.'

'The reason I chose my life is because you ARE my life.'

And that was young love.

'Oh My God!' Marissa said with happy tears starting to fall. 'Thank you!'

'And that is what the hell we are doing here – I love you.'

'I love you too.'

Still i wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you,
You do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

'What the hell do you mean Marissa's gone with Ryan!' Julie Cooper shouted.

'Their gone Julie – away.' Kirsten said.

Seth started to do an impression of to birds flying away and talking in a weird birdie Seth Cohen language. – Until get got whacked over the chest by a serious Summer.

'But they can't be gone – MY Marissa would never leave with Ryan.'

'Well she was going to leave for Berkley with him anyway.' Sandy piped up. 'Look Julie check Marissa's Closet and see if theirs any clothes there. And then check and see if there is any money or jewellery or hair products just lying about.'

Julie checked – and came back out just holding a I Love NY t-shirt.

'That is the only thing in Marissa's room.' Throwing down the t-shirt on to the floor.

'Wow so Marissa got all her furniture in to the tiny car!' Seth shouted amazed at Marissa being able to do that.

'No Seth her furniture is still in her room.' Summer said.

You've got this look i can't describe,
You make me feel I'm alive,
When everything else is au fait,
Without a doubt you're on my side,
Heaven has been away too long,
Can't find the words to write this song,
Oh, you're lovely.

'Julie what is Marissa's favourite place to go in the world?'

'Well I don't know it could be-.' Julie answered getting cut off by Summer.

'New York.' Summer shouted.

--

2 months later.

Ryan and Marissa's relationship had grown more imitate. They had learned to live for just now instead of the future. And Marissa was right Ryan did get a job in construction. But Marissa still working in the café but she did seem to be enjoying it – meeting new friends – she met up with Hailey – and made her swear to secrecy not to tell anyone where they were – and Hailey didn't dare leak a word to anyone.

Still i wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you,
You do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind, Yeah

'Do you think they noticed we're gone.' Marissa asked jokingly.

'Oh fuck yeah!' Ryan laughed – wrapping his arms around her tiny waist.

'Did you ever think this I what would happen to us?'

'What missing graduation to live in New York for a while?'

'Yeah.'

'Well I didn't think we would but I think it's better.'

'It sure as hell is!' Marissa laughed kissing Ryan and leading him into the bedroom.

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na

I have come to understand
The way it is,
It's not a secret anymore,
'cause we've been through that before,
From tonight I know that you're the only one,
I've been confused and in the dark,
Now I understand, Yeah

Oooo
Oooo

I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
I wonder why it is,
I won't let my guard down,
For anyone but you
You do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands

Okay Ryan and Marissa in love – Seth and Summer might not be in it as much from now on because it skipped ahead 2 months and they are supposed to go to Rhode Island in like a months time or something. But no neither the Cohen's nor the Cooper's will be going to New York – it's more likely that RM will go back down to California. – The scary guy isn't Volchuk – in fact it might be a guy that we saw the last of During S3 – a lot more secrets of Marissa's will come out and surprises – and maybe a tragedy – that this story deserves – remember the gun that Ryan picked up in the first chapter? – Well that will be involved. Anyway on different notes– thank you so much for reviews I appreciate them SO much!
