Sorry about the long wait, but here it is…I've been spending a lot of time on my other story, but I still think this one has the best potential and all, so I still keep updating. It was my first story and all, so I'd like to finish it:J so anyways, sorry for the wait, and here it is…enjoy : )

"Sum I gotta go, Jess is mad at me and I gotta fix this. But don't worry, I filled most of the information out, and all you gotta do is put your name on it and it's a for sure A. don't worry about my name, if you don't have the time' to write it down I'm cool with it. I'll just take a F. I didn't deserve to be your partner anyways." Seth rambled on. "well anways, see yeah!" he shot her one last smile and took off for the teacher, making up some lame excuse to get out of there.

The Date

"Now what the hell was so important that you had to drag me out of class for?" Seth said a little too bitterly. It hadn't been more than 2 hours since they'd started going out, and already she was annoying him.

"hello to you too, boyfriend.." Jess leaped off the lunch chair and kissed his cheek. "all I wanted was to spend some time with you…." She grabbed his arm and began stroking it with her thumb.

"we have all after school for that." Seth groaned.

"speaking of which.. we're going to the movies tonight…Music and Lyrics is playing.."

"it's a school night."

"awww, but I thought it would be our first official date…"she gave puppy dog eyes and a faux sad smile.

Seth sighed then said." Fine, whatever.. I'll take you…" he rolled his eyes when she looked away.

"Yay…"she clapped her hands. "this will be the best date…EVER!" she gave him one last kiss on the cheek, then turned on her heel and walked out of the café.

Seth's POV

Oh God what have I got myself into…that woman is out of her mind…She's a complete nut case! The only way this will ever work, is if I get her institutionalized…

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

The rest of the day went by pretty smoothly. Seth kept receiving constant messages from Jess, got pushed into a locker a record 2 times, and Summer even talked to him. The novelty of Seth Cohen had already long blown over. It was all back to normal, and he was still beside himself trying to figure out why the hell Jess was still with him. He thought for surely she'd bolt just like the rest of the student body.

"Sum! Hey girl!" Jess clapped her heels against the hallway floor, and caught up to Summer and the 'army of skanks'.

"Jess! Hey!" Summer faked enthused as the blonde enwrapped her in an unwanted hug.

"So girls, what were you talking about?" Jess joined the group.

"well Jess, we were just saying how we should all head to South Coast tonight…Paul Frank sale! Can't miss it!" Tara, one of the girls, blurted out with excitement.

"oh sorry, I can't come!" Jess gave a fake sympathetic smile.

"We never invited you.." Summer deadpanned bitterly. She had been shooting daggers with her eyes at Jess the entire time.

"hmmm.. well even so…I have a date!" She perked up, causing the rest of the skanks to swarm around her.

"Oh my god Jess!"

"Who is it"

"Do I know him?" they all asked with excitement.

"Cohen?" Summer's voice cracked up.

"Yes…Cohen, Summer…now if you'll excuse me, I have to go home and get ready.." Jess smirked at Summer and pranced out the doors.

"Oh my god! Seth Cohen!"

"He's such a cutie!…But a dork."

"But he saved Sum's life! You all remember it. He's such a sweetheart!"

"Not that we'd ever say that in public!" They all giggled except for Summer. She was still speechless and in thought. It all finally hit her…like a big speeding train. Cohen has a girlfriend……and it's not…me…

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

"Oh buddy! You should've seen it Ryan! The ladies were all over me!" Seth squealed as he followed Ryan around the house, babbling on about his day. " And you should've seen Summer. She was totally Jealous….God she wants me.." Seth started daydreaming and Ryan finally turned to face him.

"So, who did you choose?"

"Well, it was a tough choice…First I pegged Anna off, which by the way didn't go over too well seeing as she smacked me, then it was down to Jess and Meg, so I chose the hotter of the two, Jess, causing Meg to slug me in the face…" Seth let out a deep breath after finishing.

"Oh, that would explain the nice shiner you got there?" Ryan mockingly pointed at Seth's faded left eye.

"What can I say man, its just another battle scar."

"Since when have you been to battle?" Ryan scoffed at his remark.

"Since I became irresistible to the ladies at Harbor High…"

"Right….So what about Summer? She's completely out of the mix?"

"Well no…She can't ever be, because…well she's Summer." Seth answered, feeling as if he filled everything in. "Speaking of which, I better call her and apologize before I head out." Seth started for the stairs, but was stopped when Ryan spoke up.

"Wait, Wait, Wait….head out?" Ryan smirked then raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, I have a date with Jess tonight, who by the way will never come around here, because she's a total psycho!" with that, Seth ran up the stairs and into his room.

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Summer plopped onto her bed as soon she got home from school. She was having a bad day, and painfully it was because of Seth Cohen. So thanks to him, it defiantly looked like a Ben and Jerry's/ Valley day.

She went straight to her closet and quickly changed into boyshorts and tank top. There was no need to stay dressed up, she was in a shitty mood.

Just as she popped in The Valley DVD, her cell rang. She checked it. Cohen.

"God that kid sure knows how to keep twisting the knife…"Summer thought. She decided to just screen him, and listen to what he had to say.

"Uhhh hi Summer…Seth Cohen here, and well I was just calling, to uhhh say that I'm sorry about today…I wish I could've stayed and so we could've finished the project together, but I had to run…but anyways, I gotta go now, I'm heading out soon, so I guess I'll ju-."

"-Where are you going?" Summer picked up and asked.

"Jeez Summer. You scared the shit outta me. Never interrupt while I'm rambling!"

"Whatever Cohen, where are you going?"

"why so interested?" he was smiling on the other end, and had every right to.

Shit. Shit. Shit.

"ummmm well me and Justin we going to go out, and I didn't want to run into you and have you stink up the place."

"Rigghht…well were going to the movies, but I don't really wa-."

"-Oh, you know what Cohen? My shows about to start, and here I am wasting my time talking to you, Bye!"

"Whatever you say Sum, Bye." Immediately after he finished she hung up, but kept the phone in her hand and dialed a number.

"errrmm Hello…"

"Justin, what are you doing tonight?"

"Summer…umm nothing that I'm awa-."

"Whatever, so your free then?"

"Y-yeah why?"

"Great. How do you feel about going to the movies?"

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Seth was in his room preparing for his date. He didn't change much from what he had on from school, all he did was put on a polo and kept his khakis and chuck's in tact. He sprayed some of his Hugo Boss cologne on, then made his way downstairs.

Seth's POV

This should be interesting…I have to keep a chick entertained while I think about another girl…Summer's always on my mind, and tonight should be no different. Speaking of Summer, she soo wants me…

"And there he is, Seth, the man of the hour…" Sandy shook Seth out of his thoughts, and embraced him in a manly hug.

"We're so proud of you!" Kirsten followed after Sandy, and hugged her son. Seth quizzically looked at them, puzzled as to what was up.

"Guys, Guys…I understand I'm an important person…but whats going on?"

"Ryan filled us in on your situation….. got a date huh?" Kirsten spoke with ease.

"Oh did he know….?" Seth whipped around and glared at Ryan who was sitting at the dinning table. He shrugged then raised his arms in the air.

"Which I guess forces us to lift your ground because we are such great parents!" Kirsten finished then snaked her hands around Sandy's waist.

"Sorry man, they knew something was up…the eyebrows are intimidating.." Ryan spoke but not once lifted his head to see Seth fuming. He was too busy filling out his transfer papers to Harbor High.

"Those sickening eyebrows!" Seth fumed while still being gushed upon by his parents.

"Some people see them as a form of power." Sandy defended and began stroking his eyebrows with his thumb.

"ugh! What planet are you on dad? Those things haunt peoples dreams!" they all laughed, even Sandy who was a bit hurt by Seth's comments, but quickly smirked it off when he realized Seth would grow them in one day. So in the end, the eyebrows would triumph.

"Well, this has been painfully awkward.. I'll just be going now…Later!" Seth walked to the door and opened it

"Wait Son, when are we going to meet this little firecracker?" Sandy yelled from the kitchen and grinned, knowing he was putting his son through hell.

"With that, hopefully never…now bye!" Seth walked out before he could hear anymore questioning.

Seth's POV

God my parents are so embarrassing…I'm never bringing any girl home to them…maybe I can just hire fake parents for a day if I ever decide to… and what the hell is up with Ryan? He's from Chino, yet the guy continues to rat me out. And I know those eyebrows can't be too intimidating. I bet he does it on purpose, he probably enjoys watching me get humiliated…Where's the guy's loyalty?

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

"Can I have two tickets for….." Seth nonchalantly blurted out to the worker, but than looked to Jess for help.

"…..Music and Lyrics…..two tickets for Music and Lyrics…" She replied and smacked his arm playfully. "I thought you were excited?!"

"Oh I am….like you wouldn't believe…"Seth deadpanned with sarcasm. Jess just shook it off and grabbed the tickets than dragged him along.

"Suuummerrr…why do we have to go see that? It's a chick flick!" Justin exclaimed as Summer purchased the tickets.

"Shut it. I wanna go see this movie, and your taking me.." Summer had spotted Seth buy those exact tickets earlier, so she decided it would be a good movie to see too. There weren't any other motives other than that though….

Summer and Justin made their way towards the popcorn stand, where they found Seth and Jess arguing.

"Seettthh…get one popcorn so we can share!" she snaked her arm around Seth's waist. " it would be soooo romantic…"

Seth was oblivious to the points she was making, as we was already bitter at coming with her, let alone going out with her in the first place.

"I need my own popcorn…I'm a hungry man woman!" Seth shook her arms off and paid for their food. Summer was grinning at the sight she saw, Cohen and Jess fighting….

Jess stormed off, not even helping carry any of the food, which pissed Seth off even more. He seriously thought about throwing hers in the trash but realized she'd probably just take his.

He sourly made his way from the stand, and headed off towards the theater door, but ran into Summer in the process. She was in line with Justin, and they seemingly were staring right at him. Each with different reasons it appeared, Justin looked at him with hate while Summer appeared to look at him with…lust? Nooo she couldn't be…

"Summer!" Seth perked up as he stopped in front of the couple. " and Justin…." He finished bitterly."

"Hey Queer." Justin snickered and bumped Seth, causing a bit of the overflowing popcorn to spill.

"Funny that you continue to call me Queer and watch me all the time, seeing as your in front of Summer, which in any case you're an idiot for not paying attention to her." Seth gathered himself together, and fixed all of the food so they were upright. "But I don't like you in that way man, as a matter of fact, I don't think anyone does. Poor Summer here," Seth stopped briefly and grabbed her shoulders and rubbed her, sending shivers through her body. " is probably just wasting time with an asshole like you."

Summer started giggling uncontrollably, and Seth's quick rising dimple-filled smile didn't help slow it down. Justin was fuming and ready to kick his ass. Seth sensed this, and decided to duck out before he got hurt.

"…..What's that Jess?" he faked like Jess called him. " Well I've gotta go, Bye Sum." He sprinted out shooting her one last grin before he entered the theater. Justin was as pissed as ever, and Summer was more determined to break Seth and Jess up.

That defiantly didn't help with them teasing me. Justin's gonna kick my ass now, if not now, surely at school. But on a lighter note, I got Summer to smile and laugh. Even with a huge eventual price to pay, it's still worth it to see her smile. I never meant to spill all of that out right then and there, but all of it is true. Who the hell does like that ass? I hope Summer sure doesn't. he's probably just some random like always…If she doesn't like him, than who does she like?……me? nooo no way! But on the other hand, all the signs have been leading towards it. She comes to the movies all of a sudden, flirts everytime she's around…yes I said flirst. A year ago, I couldn't get her to say hi to me, and now my how the tables have turned. It's still not certain though, so I can't get ahead of myself. I have to take my battles as they come, and this movie sure as hell sounds like its going to be a war…………gulp……

Sorry didn't feel like fitting it all into one chapter….next chapter will be the actual movie and what happens afterward….another fight? A kiss? Who knows…lol…and I'm not quite sure why I used Music and Lyrics lol because I'm not even sure if it's a chick flick and I've never seen it in my life, but I couldn't think of any recent chick flicks so there!

Anyways R/R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
