Hey! Thanks for all the awesome reviews! You guys are great at helping! When I can't make a decision I know that you will all be there to help!
So anyways, It was quite close and you all gave me good reasons so I had to pick, hope I made a good choice!
Thanks to - svocfanatic (I've used part of your idea in this chapter!)

Julie rushed back to her car after overhearing the conversation. So that's why Marissa sounded worried on the phone to Summer this morning. Summerwasn't sick at all like her daughter had said. She's pregnant - with Seth Cohen's baby!
After thinking about it for while she knew she had to tell someone. A bit of gossip this hot!
She sat reminiscing about when she had been pregnant with Marissa. She had been young and she knew her parents had not been happy. Would I have wanted everyone finding out when I was trying to keep it a secret?
As she came to an acceptable conclusion she smiled to herself and sped off, forgetting why she had come to the pier in the first place. She thought about what she would say, the whole journey to the home of her once best friend,(but now just enough to tip the friendship scale slightly), Kirsten Cohen.
Julie lightly knocked on the Cohen's front door and smiled as Kirsten answered, hugging her and kissing both of her cheeks.
"Julie!" Kirsten exclaimed, "What a surprise! I didn't expect to see you here!" Kirsten plastered a big grin on her face, silently praying that Julie was only here for a friendly visit. But when did Julie Cooper ever drop by for a friendly visit?
"And I apologize for just dropping in like this, I hope you weren't in the middle of something?"
"No, come in, can I get you something to drink?"
"Please, whatever you're having."
"Wine alright?"
"That's fine." Julie was trying to be nice, hoping that Kirsten would understand her forthcoming news.
They made light converstaion, both of them sipping their wine while Kirsten was wondering the whole point of her visit.
"So Kirsten," Julie nicely said, "Where's um..Seth?"
"Upstairs, In his room." Kirsten answered.
"Alone?" Julie asked, hoping that she wouldn't sound too suspicious.
"No, he's with Summer..." Kirsten dragged out, curious as to Julie's sudden interest in Seth's life.
Julie could sense that Kirsten was puzzled so she began to speak but she was cut off.
Kirsten knew Julie by now. So she just asked straight out what she was here for.
"Well I have some news..." I knew she wasn't just here for a friendly visit!
"Good or bad?"
"You may want to sit down." Julie gave Kirsten a slight nudge over to the dining room table and as they were standing in the kitchen, it did not take long for them to sit and for Kirsten to ask her to continue.
"Well, I um...overheard a conversation, if you put it that way."
"You were eavesdropping?" Kirsten bluntly corrected her.
"No! Not exactly, I just um..yeah."
"So, who?"
"Seth," She paused, "and Summer."
Kirsten was starting to get worried. She had noticed Seth was a bit jittery when he told her he was going out but she just assumed he was being Seth.
"What did you hear Julie?" She said, her voice sounded more angry than she had intented it to be.
"They mentioned a baby Kirsten, I think Summer's pregnant."
Kirsten opened her mouth but no words came out. Her son, Seth, was going to be a father. He was only a teenager! Sure, he loved Summer but was that enough?
"I'm sorry," Julie said, slightly smiling, looking quite pleased with herself. Kirsten noted this and felt the rage burning up inside her. How dare she smile?
"Yea, um...I think I need some time, to process this, I..." But Julie seemed eager to leave.
"I understand, I'll leave you." And with that she quickly finished her wine and got up, heading briskly towards the door. She felt she had had to tell someone, and if anyone it should be Kirsten.
Summer led Seth by the hand into his bedroom, flopping lazily down on the bed and yawned silently. Seth crawled up behing her and began to massage her neck and shoulders softly, sensing the day's tension built up inside. He kissed her back as she stretched her arms up and yawned again.
"Tired?" He questioned, "It's only 8:30."
"Hey, you have to make special allowances for me!" She said, laughing slightly.
"Why, because you may have a rage blackout which could lead to the destruction of the world?"
"No dumbass, pregnant women here!" She stated, with a sort of frustrated voice.
"Hmmm...so what other special allowances do you get...?" He asked sexily, leaning in for a kiss.
She acknowledged this and returned the kiss, smiling as they finished.
"Other special allowances include my wonderfully helpful boyfriend going to get me ice cream, chocolate preferbly."
"Wait and I'll go and get him!" He answered, saying, "joking." after a few seconds.
"Please Cohen?" She begged, laying down on the bed and making herself comfortable.
Seth let out a slight moan of annoyance only to have that returned with a small, sad frown from Summer.
"Ok, just because you're special, Ms Pregnant lady."
"Hey! Not funny!" She grinned, hitting him lightly on the arm as he got up to walk out the door.
"What about, ok, just because I love you?" He smiled.
As he shut his bedroom door he heard the faint reply of, "I love you too!" The sarcasm dripping in her voice. He groaned as he walked into the kitchen and walked straight in front of a clearly annoyed Kirsten, her arms folded, staring at her son calmly.
"Summer!" Seth yelled loudly into her ear, setting the large bowl of ice-cream on the bedside table. She had fallen asleep, her hair spread out and lips slightly parted. She looked beautiful.
When she didn't stirr, he tried again.
"Ughhh, Cohen, what?" She asked groggily having just awoken.
"She knows, Summer, I think she knows!" He said, his voice raising towards the end.
"Who?"
"My mom."
"What?"
"About us," He said then lowering his voice to a whisper, "About the baby."
"You told her!" Summer was fully alert by that time, her eyes drilling holes into Seth's.
"No, no, no Sum! She just said something about, 'I think you and Summer have something important to tell me' and when we're ready to tell her we've to go downstairs. Or she's coming up."
"What? How? I'm not even ready to face this myself never mind telling your mom!"
"I know, neither am I. But I guess we have to."
"We don't have to, I mean we could make something up or..."
"You know it won't work, you know my mom, she'll see right through it."
"Cohen...," she started but instead of finishing she just fell into him, wrapping her arms around him. He held her face up to meet his and looked into her eyes. Their lips met in a passionate kiss as if they hadn't done it for years and they both sensed what each other was feeling.
They got up and Seth tried to lighten the atmosphere by saying rubbing Summer's stomach and laughing.
"Time to tell Grandma little one!" He said, talking to the 'baby.'
"Cheesy Cohen!" She smiled.
"You ready?" He asked as they neared the dining room and he gave her a supportive kiss.
"I guess I don't have a choice."
They walked hand in hand into the dining room and sat opposite an eager Kirsten and Sandy. She must've told him too.
'Two birds, one stone,' Thought Seth.
Nerves wracked their whole bodies as they prepared for one of the most important conversations of the year.
Hey! So I hope you liked! Next chapter is Seth and Summer telling Sandy and Kirsten and I've thought of some nice ideas to add in too!
Would you like to see some R/M in the next chapter too?

Please if you read, review and letme know what you think!I tried to bring some more interactions into this one and I will add some more feelings and stuff in the next one. Sometimes I don't realise I babble on and forget stuff and then I don't want to change it incase I make it worse! Ok, I'll stop talking now! lol
