Our New Journey Together
Chapter 4-
'Oh my god! Cohen, watch out!' But it was too late. Maybe, if Summer had said that a second earlier everything would be fine, Seth would have noticed the car coming straight towards them and he would have pulled over to side, and everything would be fine, maybe, just maybe. But those maybes aren't what's important at the moment. What's important is the person that's life is on the line.

Flashback:
"Oh my god! Cohen, watch out!"
"Huh? Oh my god." Seth's eyes then made its way back to the road, seeing a car's headlights swerving in and out of different lanes. He quickly tried pulling over to the side, hoping to just pass getting hit by the car that was coming towards them. But, it was too late, just too late. The two cars collided, Seth's side getting the most impact of the crash. Summer's eyes fluttered opened, maybe they got lucky and we're fine. But then she looked over and saw Seth. Out cold, blood dripping off his face.

And now Summer sat in her hospital bed, anxiously awaiting the news of Seth's condition. She hadn't even heard her own condition yet, but obviously it couldn't be that bad because she was awake. Seth on the other hand, well, he was in the O.R. now, being operated on. He got hurt badly. There was, though, one other thing that Summer couldn't help but worry about. The baby. She hadn't gotten hurt that bad, so there was a chance that it could be alive, right?Well, that's what Summer could hope. Her thoughts were then interrupted when a doctor walked in.
"Summer Roberts?"
Summer only nodded. She couldn't talk, she was too afraid of what she was about to find out.
"Hi, I'm Dr. Jones." She said coming over to shake her hand.
"Um, my boyfr- I mean fiancé," 'Wow, saying that feels weird.', "Seth Cohen, he is being operated on, do you know anything about him?"
"No sorry," She said, flipping through his clipboard of papers, then continued on, "He's not one of my patients. Aren't you interested in your condition?"
"Well, his is more serious then mine."
"I'm sorry, I can't help you with that. Back to you, it says here you're pregnant?" She said pointing to one of the many papers Summer had to fill out.
Summer gulped, this was a moment that could change everything. "Yes." She managed to say.
"How far along are you?"
"I'm not sure. I just found out that I was pregnant yesterday. I didn't even go to a doctor yet."
"Well, I'm going to have to check to see if the baby is fine."
Summer slowly nodded.
"I'll be back to get my equipment and then we shall see."
It felt like an eternity before the doctor came back.
"Okay Summer, if you could just lie down for me, I have to do an ultrasound. Now listen, if we find a heartbeat, then there should be no reason that baby won't be fine." She replied, rubbing the cold jelly-like substance on her stomach.
All Summer could do was nod. Her heart was racing, pounding faster and faster. She had actually gotten used to the idea of a baby. She and Seth would make great parents. And now here she was, in a state where there could be a possibility of losing both, Seth and the kid. And then, interrupting her thoughts, was the throbbing sound of the baby's heart. The baby, it was okay! She couldn't stop the tears were now escaping her eyes. The only thing she needed now was Seth.
"Everything looks like it's going to be fine," She said while a smile appeared on her face, looking at the screen which had a picture of the unborn child. "You're about two months pregnant."
"Oh my god, thank you so much. Um, do you know when I will be able to go home." She then asked, even though in her mind she knew she wouldn't be going home. She would have to stay here, for Seth.
"You seem perfectly fine, so I would say a few more hours, just for observation. I'll be back in a little bit to come and check on you."

"Oh my god, Summer, are you okay?" Kirsten asked worried, coming in with Sandy, Ryan and Taylor following close behind.
"I'm fine, the baby is fine, but have you heard anything about Seth?"
"No, we thought you might have heard something."
"No, they're not telling me anything." Summer replied, tears filling her eyes.
"I'm sure he's fine," Sandy replied, not too sure of himself, "Why don't me and Kirsten go and find a doctor while Ryan and Taylor keep you company." He then added as he and Kirsten walked out the door. There was then a moment of silence.
"Hey Summer." Ryan and Taylor both said.
"Hey, Taylor, Atwood." Summer replied slowly.
"Summer, Seth's going to be okay. He's going to pull through." Taylor trying to cheer Summer up.
"How do you know?"
Nobody answered.
"See. You don't," Summer said, her voice getting colder and escalating higher, "And everybody is going to keep telling me the same thing, 'oh, he's going to be okay', just to make me feel better, but it won't! He may never wake up and you'll still be telling me the same thing! And now," He voice started getting sad, and her eyes started tearing again, "I'm all alone and I'm pregnant, and he may not be here to see his child."
"Summer . . . " Taylor said, giving her a comforting hug.
"Um, I'm going to go see if Sandy and Kirsten found anything out." Ryan said, knowing Summer and Taylor needed to talk alone.
"What if he doesn't wake up? What am I going to do? I can't raise a kid by myself."
"Summer, we're all here for you. We'll help you get through everything."
"I can't believe this is happening. I can't lose another person. I can't lose him, Taylor, I can't loose him." Summer said, crying into Taylor's arms. She had just lost Marissa recently, and now, she might be losing Seth.
