Chapter 2

Seth woke up this morning and for some reason, did not feel himself and he wasn't sure what it was. It was the time of that fateful week in June that Seth loathed. Not only was it hot in California, but it just happened to be the same day, 4 years ago, that Summer knocked on his door telling him that everything they had was basically over.

Last night when he had called Jenny to set up their date, he hadn't even realized what the date even was and of course it had to be the same day. If he would have known, he most defiantly would not have scheduled anything.

Seth groggily get out of bed that morning and went into the bathroom. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and realized that a haircut was a definite must. He walked downstairs into the kitchen again and got the coffee maker ready to brew. Seth then walked over to the cabinet and took out the box of Scooby Doo cereal and grabbed a bowl and the milk jug and sat down. He decided that today was going to be the day that he would officially start unpacking the boxes that had been sitting all around the apartment for weeks now.

He walked over to his day planner to make sure that he hadn't had any meeting scheduled when he was supposed to be meeting Jenny.

And then it hit him. Like a huge blow to the head. Today was June 5- the worst day of Seth's life for the past 4 years. He immediately went into shut down and grabbed his coffee mug and chugged it down in one large gulp.

He walked upstairs and fell face down in his bed and buried himself under the covers. Just as he was about to get down to business with going back in the past and thinking of the good times and wishing that he could take a time machine and go back in time, his cell phone started to ring.

"Hello?" he asked in an incredibly rude tone.

"Well hello to you too. Your in a good mood," Jenny said.

"Sorry," he paused. Should he say something else, tell her what today actually is? "No way," he thought to himself. "So what's up?"

"Nothing, just calling to make sure were still on for today," she asked him.

"Huh?" pause, "Oh, yeah, sure. One still okay?"

"Yeah that sounds good. I'll see you there. Bye," Jenny could tell that something was wrong, but she didn't want to push him.

"Okay, bye."

All Seth wanted to do right now was crawl up into a dark hole and sleep forever.

Summer was on her way back from her very important meeting. They seemed to really like her and thought that she would be a good person to have for the job. She had even made a new friend. The girl at the from desk, Cameron, was very nice and they seemed to have a lot in common. They set up a date to have coffee and get to know each other better.

Summer still didn't know though if she got to job or not. They still had 3 other girls to interview.

She picked up her cell phone as soon as she was out of the building and called Danny.

"Hey! How'd it go?" Danny asked excitedly.

"Danny! I think I totally nailed it!"

"Sweetie, that's great! Are you on your way home?"

"Yeah, I should be there in like 45 minutes. What time do we have to be at Tyler's?"

"We should be there around 7, is that's good for you?"

"Yeah, okay, well I'll see you soon. Bye!"

"Bye."

One o'clock came around quickly and Seth was sitting down in the booth at the restaurant clad in sweat pants and the same shirt that he wore to bed. His hair was a mess and it looked like he hadn't showered in 4 days.

Jenny walked in and looked over to find Seth. When she saw him a disgusted look came over her face.

"What the hell happened to you?" she asked him.

"I couldn't find and clean clothes and I need a haircut. So, yeah." Seth said in the most monotoned voice anyone could muster.

"Yeah, okay. So what did you do today?"

"Woke up. Talked to you. Laid in bed til I had to come here. Now I'm here." Again, monotoned.

"Oh! So I was thinking that it might be fun for you to meet my parents. We haven't had the whole meet and greet thing with them yet, so, maybe we could do that this weekend?"

"Um. I'm busy. Me and Ryan, we uh, we have a guys weekend planned," Seth said. It was the first thing that came to his mind and maybe he would even give Ryan a call. He hadn't talked to him in a week or so.

"Oh, okay, well then well do it next weekend," her voice came out like a child.

All Seth wanted to do now, was sleep and wallow in self pity. "Okay." Their food hadn't even come yet but Seth needed to get out of here. "Hey. I just realized that I had a meeting scheduled for 3 o'clock and I still have to shower and pick out some better clothes. I am really sorry, but I'll call you later, okay?" He said as he got up and started to make his was to the door of the café. Seth just couldn't handle her right now.

"Um okay? Do you need a ride or anything?"

"No, no. I drove here." And with that, he was out the door leaving a very confused Jenny behind.

Once Seth reached his car, he whipped out his cell phone. There was only one person in this world that could make this day okay for him. Ryan.

After Marissa died, Ryan spent a couple of weeks alone and doing different things. Things that would take his thought away from Marissa. He blamed himself for not pulling over and that resulting in her death. But, he decided to try and move on and go to college at Berkley. After changing his major countless times, he decided to stick with his first major- architecture. He was Newport's next own entrepreneur. He had started his own small business that soon turned into a major corporation. He had a steady girlfriend, Mary, and they were pretty close to becoming engaged. At least, that's what Ryan told Seth.

"Hey Seth. Haven't talked to you in a while, what's up?" Ryan asked.

"Dude, I need your help."

"What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"It's June 5th. No, no I'm not okay."

As soon as the words June 5th left his mouth, Ryan immediately understood.

"I'm at the house if you want to stop by.."

"Yeah I will is that okay?"

"Yeah, sure. Just come on in."

"I'll be there in like 5 minutes." Seth slammed his phone shut and turned on the radio. Every song that came on reminded him of some time he had spent with Summer, it was like the world was working against him today. He pressed the off button and drove quickly to Ryan's house hoping that they would do something to distract him. Even if it was only for an hour.

Summer drove into her driveway and got out of the car. She walked into the kitchen and sitting in a gorgeous vase were 2 dozen of her favorite flowers. She smiled and walked outside into the backyard where she saw Danny's profile from behind. She walked quietly and hugged him from the back placing a kiss on his cheek.

"Your so cute."

He smiled. "I thought you deserved some flowers. I can feel it. You totally got that job."

"Yeah. I hope. But now, I need to get ready for the party. I'll be upstairs."

"Okay. I'll be up soon. I need to get ready too. You have an hour and a half to get ready, Sum!"

"Yep." And with that, she walked up the stairs.

"What am I going to do!" Seth wined.

"Call her?" Ryan said.

"Call her! Ryan have you lost your mind! I can't call her! I haven't talked to her for like.. 4 years! What am I going to say? 'Oh hey, it's Seth. I'm depressed cause it's June 5th the day you left me to go to college alone and gave up on us?' Yeah, sounds perfect." Seth rambled on.

"Seth, calm down. Just call her and see if she wants to catch up. Talk even?"

"As much as that sounds so easy, no."

"Huh, okay.. Playstation?"

"Yeah. Bring it out."

Twenty minutes later Ryan had won 3 rounds.

"Seth, I just beat you. Again. And this is my first time playing this game. You've had this game for like 2 years."

"Yeah I know. And I don't even care! See," Seth motioned to his face in order to make him point more clear. Not that it wasn't already enough, "I am majorly depressed."

Ryan decided to change the topic and try and get Seth away from staying too depressed. As much as Seth talked and it annoyed Ryan to no end sometimes, he had to admit that he did like it when he talked.

"So Mary will be home soon. She said she was going to cook something good for dinner. Do you want to stay? I'm sure she wouldn't mind?" Ryan asked Seth.

"Yeah, sounds good."

The meal went over smoothly and it was nearing the time that Seth should be leaving.

"Mary, Ryan, thanks for dinner."

"Oh sure Seth. We love having you, come over anytime!" Mary said.

"Thanks, Mary." He went over and gave her a hug.

"Thanks, Ryan." He went over and have him one of those "man hugs".

"Later, Seth." They both said in unison.

After Seth left, Ryan and Mary were laying in bed. He was telling her about what had happened today.

"I'm worried about him," Ryan said, reflecting back on their conversation from earlier.

"I'm sure he'll be fine. He just needs some sleep, he'll come around," Mary told Ryan hoping to make him feel better.

"Yeah, I hope your right." Ryan reached over and flicked the light switch and they were overcome with darkness.

That hour and a half had quickly passed and they were currently at the party. Summer and Danny were becoming a bit intoxicated. Summer a bit more than Danny since she wasn't one who could hold her liquor for very long.

The beer was starting to run low and the party was just starting to take off. Music blasted from the big speakers and all around people were dancing. Parties like this reminded Summer so much of Newport, that she almost didn't like them. Almost. But, in Summer's mind, a party is a party. Make good use of it. So she did.

Danny walked over to Summer and tapped her on the shoulder. She was talking to one of her friends that she had met at Texas A&M and they were talking about her interview that had occurred earlier that day.

"Hey Sum, I was just talking to Tyler and we were noticing how the beer was starting to get low. I told him that I would go and run to the store to pick up some more. Do you want to go, need anything?"

"Oh okay. No, I'll stay here. We were just talking about my interview and what she's going to be doing. I'll see you later."

Danny and Summer gave each other a quick hug and Danny was out the door.

It had been 2 hours since Danny had been gone and the party was starting to come to a close. Summer hadn't seen Danny since he left to get more drinks so she decided to have Britney take her home. She assumed he would be there waiting for her when she got back.

They arrived at their house and she said her goodbyes and thank yous to Britney. She walked in the front door and went into the bedroom. "Huh, I wonder where he is," she thought.

She went downstairs and sat on the couch, ice cream in hand and flipped on the TV. She kept on flipping until she saw a news clip that had BREAKING NEWS in big letters flashing across the screen. She decided to watch, assuming a fire or a shooting. But that wasn't the case.

"Hello, this is Sandra from the 11 o'clock news. Breaking news has just come in about a young man who was driving between University Drive and Tally Road. It seems that he was crossing a four way intersection and out of nowhere a car came at around 60 miles an hour slamming into the side of his car. He seems to have been driving a red Ford Mustang. No names have been released but we are told that he was flown to University Hospital from his car where he was announced unconscious. Well will hopefully receive some more news on this story shortly. Stay tuned."

"Oh God, oh God, oh God, oh God. This could not be happening. It was only a coincidence that Danny and this person on the news had the same car and that the store was very close to that intersection" Summer thought, more and more thoughts racing through her mind.

Suddenly, the phone rang and brought her back. She jumped up from the couch and answered.

"Hello?" she asked quickly.

"Hello, this is Dr. Clark from University Hospital. Is Summer Roberts available?"

"Yes, this is her."

"Oh, hello. It seems that Danny Peterson was in a car accident tonight. Could you please come down to the hospital. I need you to sign some papers."

"What's going on? Is he okay? Is he alive? Can I see him?" Summer was now panicking. This could not be her Danny. This had to be someone else's Danny. He said he was going to be back soon. All he was going to do was go get some beer from the store.

"I am sorry, Miss, but I am going to need you to get down here before I can tell you anything." Dr. Clark hated this about his job, not being able to tell people what was wrong.

Summer now was in hysterics. Her face was red and tears were streaming down.

"Ye..yess.. I'll be right there."

"Okay, and when you get to the front desk, ask for me, Dr. Clark. Bye."

Summer sprinted up the stairs an put on a pair of sweat pants and left the tank top that she had on, on.She jetted down to her car, buckled the seat belt, and quickly reversed her car out of the driveway leaving the ice cream melting on the coffee table and the TV still on.

Okay, so all of a sudden these different ideas are coming to me, so what I originally had planned may not end up being how it will actually go. I am not so sure about this chapter. I tried my hardest. And it may take like 2 more chapters for Seth and Summer to see each other so please stick with me and keep the reviews coming!
