Strange and beautiful

California…here we come.

Yeah,we’re in Orange County,we still have Summer,Seth,Marissa and Ryan...now it’s Chrismukka.Seth is with Summer and Ryan want to dance with Marissa...

Ryan:'Come on,wanna dance?Or we can go in my little house if u want...'

Marissa:'No!I mean..I’m tired..sorry,I go to the bathroom now..'

In the same moment...

Summer:'Seth!are u listen to me?Stop watchin Ryan,he is always with u..Gosh,maybe are u gay?cause if it’s that...'

Seth:'No,Summer.I wasn’t lookin at him.Tell me,do u remember Marissa?A blond,tall and beautiful girl next Ryan?Maybe I was lookin at her...'

Summer:'ah-ah.kinda funny..u could look at Julie Cooper but not Marissa...come on,eat this,isn’t fantastic?and...'

Seth:'what?..I don’t understammm..good but...what did I just eat?'

Meanwhile...

Kirsten:'hey baby,what’s up?why are u cryin in the bathroom?'

Marissa:'nothing.thanks,it’s all right...'

Kirsten:'U know?must be this Chrismukka!think...even when Summer asked Seth to go upstairs he said ‘no,thanks’..what does Seth have too?another one ran upstairs in a second!If I didn’t know you,I would thought that you are soulmates...same humor,same expressions...well I go now..'

Marissa:'yeah..(u are right..soulmates...)..'

In that moment something strange happened...both Marissa and Seth were thinkin at the past...when did they meet each other?well,they meet when they were eleven years old.Before,Marissa was studying at home,because ‘it was better for her and for her culture’ said Julie Cooper,but soon she was annoyed to have two children at home and Marissa went at school..and it was made.

She soon saw him..and feel in love.

’Hi!I’m...’said Marissa to him,but was soon interrupted by Summer:

’..Marissa Cooper!wow,nice to meet u!I’m Summer and..uh,don’t speak to him.Ewww.U’re cool,he is out!’

’..ok’..has been the answer of Marissa.

Yeah,Summer could shout her mouth,cause from that moment Seth and Marissa was speakin in this way:’Hi..’and...’Bye,Marissa..see you tomorrow...’.Nothing else.

But one day,when they was toghether for a project at school,Marissa finally said to Seth:

’U know,u’re better than others think.I mean,Summer is wrong.U’re so funny!I like your skate...’

Seth:’wow..thanks,and I like you..your hair!’

Marissa:’eheh..what?’

Seth:’Yeah,I love blonde girls..’

Marissa:’..but Summer doesn’t have...’

Seth:’Yeah,yeah..but u know,she gots boots..and short skirt..ehy,I’m still a little child all excite baby!' '..but...’

Marissa:’..but?...’

Seth:’Nothing.well,if u want..i’m here.bye’

Marissa:’bye.’

Marissa was in love.So in love.But the thing she didn’t understand was that Seth was in love too.

And not with Summer,for sure.

The years passed,at fourteen years old Marissa was looking throught her window.She was lookin at the house of Cohen and she was crying.

At sixteen Seth was showing Ryan who was Summer,but inside him he was thinking at Marissa...

’She can’t still think of me’ he thought ’I’m a loser and she could say something to me,if she was in love,so she isn’t.' 'Damn what..no.oh,my god..Ryan is lookin at her.Damn!’

Seth:’No..Summer is the other one,Ryan..the other one!’

Ryan:’I know..but tell me,has the blonde girl a boy?’

It was made.Seth and Marissa were in two different places even if they were in the same room,the one was always further from the other..they didn’t speak anymore..in appearance,they didn’t know the other.

So here we are again,at the Chrismukka party in Cohen house.Summer was friend of Marissa..cause ‘she wanted to be cool and stay with cool people’ Marissa was still thinkin at the dinner table ’so how is that she stay with Seth?Seth wasn’t cool when we were young,all the time I was tryin to speak with him,all the time I wanted to invite him to a party (she was scarying him in a so big way that he didn’t come anymore..)..and Seth..what does he find in her?She has an horrible nose and she is short and so superficial...oh my god,I’m speaking bad of Summer..I’m going crazy,I know’

..and at the same moment,what was thinking Seth?he was lookin at Ryan and was thinkin:

’How didn’t I understand that she was still in love?and now,too!is she still in love or consider me a stupid?I made myself this question and the ansewer was here..I should saw that she stayed with Ryan only to make me jealous and only because I’m with Summer..he isn’t fun and beautiful like me..he is so boring..and all the time Summer says ’Cohen,relax,you aren’t her boyfriend!’..this make me so sad..but the most beautiful thing was our kiss,last year..yeah...’

Ryan:'Why are u smiling to Marissa,Seth?she’s my girl..ahah'

Seth:'ah-ah.For now.'

Ryan:'What?'

Seth:'Mmh..nothing...'

Marissa:'Ryan...can I talk for a minute please?(looking at Seth)'

Ryan:'Sure..what’s up?'

What is the fact of the kiss?well,Ryan was just gone to Chino with Theresa and Marissa was crying...she called somebody at the phone but put off when she heard his voice..of Ryan?No,the voice of Seth!

She was crying cause Seth sailed away that time and the night he was going away Marissa run to him and this is the way that the fact happened...

Marissa:'Seth!Seth wait!Please,don’t go away..'

Seth:'If Summer told u to come...'

Marissa:'No!no Summer,no Ryan...stop saying this.U know,it’s always been only you in my heart.Stay for me!Stay with me!'

(Seth kissed Marissa for a second.Then they looked each other,smiled each other and kissed each other for a long time but seems to fly in a second)

Seth:'Finally..!I thought..'

Summer:'Seth!'

Seth:'Oh no..it’s a nightmare...Summer..!'

Summer:'Marissa...what are u doing here?'

Marissa:'I..we’ve got to tell you..'.

Summer:'Doesn’t matter,doesn’t matter...Cohen!Come here!son of a...if u try to go away...'

Seth:'I don’t try.I go Summer.Marissa..I’m sorry...bye..I’m..I’m sorry...'

Marissa:'No...!why!...'(cry)

Summer:'Come on...u can find another like Ryan everywhere...u know..'

Marissa:'Go away!...u don’t understand nothing!'

Summer:'What the hell have you?Gosh...!Seth and Marissa..two stupid that should stay toghether...nobody knows what there’s in their mind...'

It was Chrismukka again when Marissa saw everything clear and spoke to Ryan near the pool...

Marissa:'It’s over.It was never began..well..but,anyway..we’ve closed.'

Ryan:'What?Why...I thought u wanted to stay with me..is there another one?who is?'

...and it was Christmukka when also Seth wanted to tell the true and saw all in the way it should be...

Seth:'..it’s me!'

Ryan:'Repeat please?'

Summer:'Hey,what’s happening..Seth..?'

Seth:'Yeah,it was always me!Marissa and I are in love since we met at eleven years old!Ryan..did u ask yourself why Marissa always cries and she’s sad near you and why is she happy near me?'

(Marissa smiled...)

Summer:'..Seth!..'

Marissa:'...and why is Seth always excite in front of you but he has never looked at you in a real way,without sayin a world but just watchin your face?'

Seth:'..Uao!good Marissa,good!..yeahhh...did u think about these thinks,people?'

Summer:'Marissa..and Seth..ewww...'

Marissa:'Summer?(she throw Summer in the pool!)...oh!you are in the pool...ewww!..oh,another thing..Seth loves blonde girls,baby...u are off!'

Seth:'eheh..my little Marissa...this is the real Marissa..a fun girl like me!'

Ryan:'...so I was only a doll?a thing to make Seth angry?u are a...'

Seth:'..a stupid boy who should stay with Theresa,yeah!(and he throw Ryan in the pool,too!)..come on Marissa..give me this kiss,damn'!

They kissed each other,Kirsten said:

‘I was right,I knew it!I knew it!’ and Marissa was crying..

’..again?what’s happenin now,girl?’said Seth.

Marissa:’No,this time I cry cause I’m happy that my dream come true!but tell me..why didn’t u tell me before what u feel for me?I thought I was the one to prove so much...’

Seth:’The true?I was a stupid.I was a real stupid boy,I had fear to have a real and serious story with the most beautiful and intelligent girl..I thought I wasn’t ready but I was dying inside without you’

Marissa:’oh..setthy!I love you!I was scared that u didn’t think of me and I was going crazy without huggin you’

Seth:'Setthy!mmh..well,ok..Marsy..I can call you Marsy,right?I loveeee youuuu Marsyyy!’

Marissa:'ahah!setthy and marsy..all right,sounds good!hey boy..'

Seth:'Hey girl..?'

Marissa:'Did I ever say you that you’re strange and beautiful?’

Seth:'..all the times,baby,with your eyes you said me this and more all the times,my love!

If you leave

The last year of school it's ending...a lot of things are changed..

Marissa:so are u gonna do the design school?

Seth:yeah...they accepted me isn't amazing?Nueva York here I comeeee...
why are u so sad?u'll come at the same university!

Marissa:yeah...that's cool..exept that now Summer doesn't talk to me and she's friend of that snob..taylor...

Seth:..if that's the problem...I want to remember you that Ryan...

Marissa:yeah,yeah..'Ryan kicked my ass and broke my nose...I was dying!'..I know Seth u always repeat it!At least u're still friends now...

Seth:yeahhh..he only broke my nose and the day after he was going out with my ex in front of us...but I don't really care.u should let go all these things and think about the future..hey,where are u going?

Marissa ran in the bathroom of the school,crying.She was looking at the photo of Cohen and in that moment,Summer entered:

Summer:oh..look!the little bitch is cryin...what a news!

Marissa:shut up Summer!aren't u tired of making fun of me?what do u want?

Summer:if u really want to know..I want Cohen.and I'll have him back.See ya.

Marissa went out,prepared for the graduation and when she wanted to go out...she saw Ryan.

Ryan:Hey,can I talk to you?

Marissa:...sure..

Ryan:just want u to say that u're the love of my life and I won't forget u...

Marissa:ok...wow..thanks but..

Ryan:yeah I know u don't care...I just wanted to say u..

Marissa:well, Summer wouldn't be so happy to hear this!

Ryan:..but it's true!I wanted to say u this cause I'm going to Great Britain.

Marissa:What?what are...why?

Ryan:I found out that the son of Theresa..the son..was mine.They wanted me for a stage here but Theresa has an uncle with tons of money in London...she found out it only 25 years later...isn't this bizzarre?

Marissa:omg...more than bizzarre...so are u leaving?what will u say to Summer?

Ryan:mmhh..nothing.I'll go with her in N.Y and then...I think..I don't know..yesterday I saw her with a guy named Volchok..I'm sure 'they' will be ok with him...

Marissa:ewww...bad guy I heard about him..why 'they'...wait;have u said N.Y?why?

Ryan:cause she's going to the design...university.

Marissa ran immediately to Summer:'U little bitch!How can u do that?!' said Marissa

Summer:do what?relax!

Seth ran to Marissa and tried to calm her..'what's happening here?'

Marissa:This little bitch is going to your university!she has never wanted to do it,she has never loved art!!She goes there for u,don't u understand?!

Seth:ok...a minute.Even if it's true I couldnt' care less and second,it's our...'our' university...

Marissa:No!I havent' been accepted Seth!We'll have to leave us...

Marissa went home crying,Summer was so happy that Cohen had to say her to go away and he was so surprised...they had to be far from each others for three years?

The day arrived.

Marissa had to go to Berkley and Seth was going at the airport...when Marissa came.

Marissa:'Cohen!'

Seth:hey!I thought u didn't come...I'm late!'

Marissa:'I just want to say u that I love u,I love you Seth.I've never wanted to admit my feelings but now I have to tell u...I'll wait for u'

Seth was scared.He wanted to tell her that he loves her too but he was scared about the future,about the distance,about..everything..

Seth:'I'll move there.U know I'm gonna find a lot of new friends...that city is amazin,everything will be different'

Marissa:what does it mean?!

Seth:I...I have to go...but if u come there,we can see each other...

Marissa:SETH!

The months were passing so slowly and Marissa was hating every single person of Orange County and Berkley...Kaithlyn was always reapeating that Seth wasn't thinkin of her anymore..the point was that she tried to call him,she even wrote him an email but he read it and didn't reply!

Then,she decided:she had to go in New York.

Arrived at the campus,she immediately saw Summer...'fantastic' she thought

Summer:Marissaaa,hi!how are u?I dont' think so well...Seth should be in my room...I don't know...eheh!

Marissa ignored her but when Summer stand up she found out the 'big' problem'...Summer smiled and walked away.

Seth:Marissa!

Marissa:Don't talk to me...go away!...a baby!!wtf?!

Seth:A pregnancy?!what...?..wait!

Marissa was shocked,she saw enough...Summer will have a baby from Seth?it's a nightmare!

She began to drink and she felt like a shit...now she was at home,far from the one she loves and with this huge problem!if he didn't want to talk with me,she thought,it's obviously for this reason...he doesn't love me,he even doesnt' think of me!

She felt in a bad depression and didn't reply to Cohen'calls...time went on..till the third year.

She was grown,she was feeling stronger but she doesnt' want to fall in love again for sure...the truth was that she was still in love with Seth.But with the study she finished these years fast and now she was ready to do the specialization of the other last two years in the university of Los Angeles...at least,if I study, I don't think of Cohen...she thought..but she wasnt' happy anymore.she knew it inside her.

The first day of the new year of university she entered and...she was shocked.

Seth Cohen was in front of her,better than ever,always the same funny amazin geek.

Seth:Marissa!how are u?

Marissa was confused,he was nice as always...

Marissa:'how are u?'I wrote and I called u...then,I find out that u and Summer wait a baby and...

Seth:What?no...it was Ryan'baby.

Marissa:Ryan?but...ok..anyway u never gave a damn about me after u leave...why?!

Seth stayed in silence...after a minute,when Marissa was trying to move,he said

'I was too scared.'

'I've always felt good with u,but we have had few time.It was like a dream.When I found out I was going in that city all alone I was fuckin scared...without u.I had to think to everything else exept u if I wanted to grow up and finish that university...I tried to not think of you,I was a bastard I know...'

Marissa:yeah..!I waited for u...every single day I was thinkin about u and I felt my heart so empty!

Seth:the point is that I was feeling a shit for all these years too...I've always thought about our last day,the last time we said 'hi'...I do wanted to say it again..u don't know how much I wanted to say it to u again...

Marissa:hi...stupid,I missed u terribly...

They hugged.

Seth:btw..it's impossible we choose the same specialization!isnt' it?

Marissa:mmh..no,it's just fate!

..and they kissed each other.

p.s.The day after Seth arrived in Marissa's room with a smoking and made her the proposal...

Seth:'I had bought this at the airport...I promised myself that,if I still was thinkin of you after these years far...well,I only had to do one thing...would u marry me?

Marissa:...u had to ask me this a lot of time ago...so..YEAH!'

They married in Orange County but went to live in N.Y...true love of Mr and Mrs Cohen doesn't know what 'far' means!

..And they lived happily ever after of course!!
