Chapter 6 – Friends and ex's (Continued)
Summer was not so much enjoying her break in Newport Seth was always going to his boat which he named after her the Summer Breeze and teaching Kids how to sail even his little sister Sophie. When Summer came home she worked at the local animal centre as a receptionist to earn some money, so did Seth at the comic book store in the mall.
Summer at dinner the night before, she noticed something happening between the girl from next door and Ryan. Summer remembered when she brought flowers for Ryan and that they used to play together as babies, but she went away.
Summer also wanted to get to know her a bit better as well so over coffee, they had more of a chat and got to know each other a little better, summer felt happy getting to know her a little better.
Taylor was staying at the Roberts that night after she saw Ryan and had a chance to talk to summer about Paris and Jean-Paul. She got in and was shown to the guest room where she would be staying until she got back to Paris, she got into the room and took some pills from her bag and took some water from a bottle and took these only one at a time and then fell asleep on the bed.
It was the next day and Taylor woke up and walked downstairs and heard Summer talking to her father in the kitchen they greeted her
"Good morning Taylor how are you"
"Good thank you, what are you eating this morning?"
"Well, Coffee and cereal, why"
"No reason, I will just have some coffee, thank you for your hospitality Dr Roberts"
Summers dad nodded and poured out a cup of black coffee and Taylor drunk it will taking some more pills and then went upstairs to get ready for the day, she would be going back to Paris later and needed to talk to Summer about things.
Summer was getting worried about Taylor, taking pills it reminded her of her step mother, how took pills and died then from an overdose. Summer walked to Taylor's room to talk to her about the night before and why she was taking pills. She found Taylor on the bed taking more pills when she walked in.
Taylor noticed that Summer had walked in and moved around to talk to her
"Hey"
"Hey, so about yesterday what happened, with you and Atwood?"
"Well, we spilt up, he was with another girl eating lunch at the diner, and you know the girl that only comes for Christmas"
"Why did you spilt up"
"I cheated on him with another guy called Jean-Paul, who I meet in Paris in my first month there"
"Wow, so what do you think him been around with another girl"
"I do not mind, because we are over Sum and he has to get over me and the fact we are not together any more"
"Was he harsh, in the way he told you that it was over"
"Yes, he was angry, he looked as though he was punch me or my new boyfriend"
"Well, what do you expect when you cheat on guys, there first thought is to get back at there girlfriend or the man"
"Yes Sum, well my car will be here soon, for my flight back to Paris, it was nice to have a chat to you"
Summer left the room felling that there were so many unanswered questions that she would like ask Taylor but she could not. Taylor left about 30 minutes after they conservation and Summer felt that her mind was full that she wrote all her questions on a piece of paper and kept them in her diary by her bed, ready to ask Taylor when she next came home.
Seth had also noticed that his brother was connecting with the girl next door, he had never really got to speak her, but that night it was it his lucky night, they had a conservation about sailing, comic books, skateboards and Indie music, they shared a lot in common and the same tastes as each other, which Seth was very happy that somebody shared the same things that he liked.
Ryan after taking Marissa home came back to the Cohen house, to be greeted by Sandy, he wanted a chat with him
"So I hear that you and Taylor have spilt up then"
"Yeah, we have, she was cheating on me with another guy and I'm worried about her, she has been acting weirdly, getting over me so quickly, it's like she does not care"
"Well, she maybe takes shorter time to get over things and how did you day go with the Marissa"
"Good, I think I like her, its like we connect, that we knew other before, we dated in a past life, I'm torn I don't want to get into another relationship so quickly after me & Taylor's break up, what I should do"
"Stay friends now and see how the time goes, maybe in a few months the wounds , may have healed themselves for you think about taking it step further"
"Thank you for the advice, I think we will stay friends for now"
"Good to hear my advice comes to of some use"
Ryan left and went to bed knowing that his mind was at rest about Taylor and Marissa.
Spring was due to come and in the next few days the new friends sorted out the plans, Seth thought of sailing to Mexico and summer and Ryan thought of Florida and Marissa of Hawaii, but the casting vote was Florida and they had only 6 weeks to wait until spring break and they guys looked forward to spending the time together.
