So Happy Together

Chapter One

Noah Roberts woke up with a start. Light was shining through the bottom of his curtain, indicating it was morning. He didn't want to get out of bed, he didn't want to go to school and he definitely didn't want to leave for California tonight.

Hearing his mother out in the kitchen, he jumped out of bed and padded toward the smell of the pancakes. As he entered the room, Summer Roberts looked up and smiled at her nine year old son.

"Hey baby, how did you sleep?"

"Alright," Noah replied, stifling a yawn. He lifted his cheek toward his mother so that she could kiss it before sitting down at the kitchen table.

"Are you all packed for tonight?"

"Yeah, but I still don't see why we have to go. I'm going to miss the soccer finals, it's not fair!"

Summer placed a plate of pancakes in front of her son and took a seat in front of her own, pouring the syrup over them before handing it to Noah.

"I want you to meet someone, and that someone is in California, so that's where we're going."

"But I don't know why we have to go now, right before soccer and right before my birthday."

Summer sighed. She couldn't even begin to explain things to Noah, in her opinion; he was too young to understand it all. Half the time, she didn't even understand it.

It had been close to eleven years since she had last seen the love of her life, Seth Cohen. After spending the night together, she had woken the next morning with a call from Seth's father, asking her to come over to their house. There, she was presented with a letter from Seth, explaining to her that he had set sail for Tahiti, without so much as a goodbye.

It seemed a cruel irony that the night before Seth walked out of her life was the night Noah was conceived. Of course, they'd used protection but the night before her life was ruined, it hadn't worked and, as a result, a new life had begun.

Summer had looked up her mother in New York and flown there immediately, telling her father she would only be spending the summer. However, she'd liked New York so much, especially the anonymity, she'd decided to stay and had not been to California since.

No one from Newport knew about Noah, not even her father. She still spoke to him at least once a month, and he'd even visited once or twice, but Summer had never told him about Noah. Whenever he visited, Noah stayed with his grandmother, believing his mother was out visiting friends.

However, a week out from Noah's tenth birthday, she felt it was time. It was time to go back to Newport so that Noah could meet his family: his grandfather, his other grandparents, Sandy and Kirsten, his aunty Marissa and uncle Ryan. And of course, his father, Seth Cohen.
