Meeting Summer

Marissa walked through the halls at the end of the day. She heard somebody coming behind her. "Hi" She heard her say. She turned around. "Hey" Marissa said. "So like your new here and everything right?" She said.

"Yeah I am" Marissa said. My name's Summer Roberts" She said. "Marissa Cooper" She said. "Cool but if you don't mind I think I'll call you Coop" She said with a smile. Marissa laughed, "Well only if I can call you Sum" she said with a laugh.

"Sure. So are you going somewhere?" She said. "I was going to go home drop my stuff off. Do you want to come over?" Marissa said. "That would be awesome. Let me just go grab my books I'll meet you in the quad Coop" She said.

"Okay Summer" She said. She looked up and saw Ryan and Seth walking towards her. "Marissa do you know who you where just talking too?" Seth said. "I was talking to Summer" She said closing her locker.

"She was talking to Summer" Seth said to Ryan. Marissa looked at him strangely. "She won't even give me the time of day but she talks to Marissa" He said walking away. "Okay I thought Seth was at first just a little out there. Now he's just freaking me out. What's his deal?" She said walking with Ryan.

"He's into Summer. He has been since way before I got here" He said. "Are you serious?" She said. "Yeah it's been like this since he first laid eyes on her or so he says" Ryan said. "And they don't talk?" She said. "Summer doesn't really hang with Seth's circle?" He said.

"And who does that consist of?" She said. "Well me and Captain Oats which sounds weird but nobody seems to understand him" Ryan said. "But you can?" Marissa said. "He's a little neurotic but he's a good friend." He said.

"Well maybe I can introduce them. You know when I actually get to know her?" She said. "Seth would love you" Ryan said. She laughed. "Well if it's for Seth then I'll do it I kind of feel bad for him. He must really like her" She said.

"Must really like who Coop" Summer said. "Comic books Ryan was just telling me that he likes Comic books" She said. Ryan looked mortified and glared at Marissa. She shrugged silently apologizing for the lame excuse.

"So are we going?" She said. "Yeah just a second Summer this is Ryan" She said. "The kid from Chino I know" She said with a smile. "Hi. Well I'm going to go find Seth I'll see you later" Ryan said walking away. "Bye Ryan" Marissa said.

They started walking home. "So you're into Chino?" Summer said. "It's not like that and anyway we just met. We barely know each other" She said. "He is hot Coop" She pointed out. "Summer can I ask you something?" She said.

"Shoot" Summer said. "Why are you so eager to befriend me?" She said. "Well because the girls around here suck and I noticed you the other day. So I asked around and found out that you were a transfer student so I thought why not try being friends with you" She said.

"That's it you didn't know if I was crazy? Or if I was strange? You just walked up to me with basic facts about me?" Marissa said. "Yes Marissa" She said. "Okay now you're starting to sound a little crazy Summer" She said with a laugh.

Summer laughed along with her. "What can I say Coop I like taking chances" Summer said. Marissa laughed.

A little while later they reached Marissa's. They walked in the front door. "So this is your place it's cute" Summer said. "Well it's no mansion but I like it all the same" Marissa said dropping her bag down. "So do I get to see your room?" Summer said.

"Well actually it's just a guest room for now anyways. I live with my Uncle Pacey he owns the restaurant Blue fish" She said. "By the pier oh that place is totally amazing. Everybody goes there." She said. "Yeah well that's the place" She said.

"So what's the deal with Atwood? Is he like into you?" He said. "No, of course not we're just….." Marissa said. Summer laughed. "Complicated I get it" Summer said. Marissa laughed.

"Gee thanks!" She said. "You are so going to love New Port!" Summer said. "Yeah it seems the possibilities are endless here" She said with a smile. "Well they are. You'll fit in just fine" Summer said.

"Well I'm glad somebody thinks so. I'm going to order some pizza before Pacey gets home" She said. "Okay Coop" She said. "I'm just gonna grab the phone" She said walking out of the room.

Summer was sitting at the kitchen counter when she heard keys in the door. A man walked in shut the door and looked up at her. "Hi you must be one of Marissa's friends." He said. "Hi Mr. Witter it's actually Summer Roberts" She said.

"Oh nice to meet you Summer" He said. "Coop is ordering pizza. She should be back in a second" Summer said. Pacey looked at her strangely. "Okay well…" she said stopping. "Hey Uncle Pacey" Marissa said smiling noticing he was home.

Pacey knew the talk would just have to wait. "Hey Marissa so I met your friend Summer here." He said. She smiled. "It looks like your fitting in quite well kiddo" He said. "I just ordered pizza if your hungry" She said.

"No thanks. Actually I have somewhere to go tonight so I'm just gonna go now. Summer it was a pleasure meeting you and your always welcome. Marissa I'll see you later tonight" He said. "Okay Bye" Marissa said. "Bye Mr. Witter." Summer said.

With that Pacey walked out the door. Summer turned and looked at Marissa. "Okay Coop your uncle is hot" She said. "Ew Summer" She said. "What?" She said. "He's my uncle" She said.

"Alright whatever Marissa. So anyway There's this party on Friday its totally "New Port Beach" and my dad's making me go. So I thought maybe you'd might want to come with?" She said.

"So another words what you mean by the party being so "New Port Beach" is that it's basically a party thrown by the wealthy living in Orange County" Marissa said. "That's exactly what I'm saying" She said. "I don't know" Marissa said said.

"What come on please come with me" Summer said. "I just don't know if I'd exactly fit in" She said. "Whatever Marissa you would so totally fit. And your uncle has been to them before. He does own a rather successful business and some of these people are his friends" Summer said.

"Oh really like who?" She said. "Well like the Cohen's for one" She said. "Seth's parents? There going to be there?" Marissa said. "Of course so you know what that means?" Summer said.

"That if they're going Ryan is too" She said. "Exactly so will you please go with me. We can totally bail if you feel weird" She said. She looked at Summer.

"So what does one wear to an event like this?" Marissa said with a smile. "Well we just have to go shopping?" Summer said. "I can't wait" Marissa said.
