The Perfect Gift by FacesDown (G)
Fandom: THE O.C.
Pairing: Seth/Summer
Author on LJ: ??
Author Website: Facesdown's Fanfiction Index
Why this must be read:
This story is set during season two as Seth tries to learn to be a better person via his experiences with Summer, and Summer tries to overcome her fears of letting Seth back into her life. This is a nice, happy fic that leaves you with a smile on the face. So often in this fandom, it's all about the angst (which I do love), and occasionally it's nice to stumble upon a story that is pure fun where everything works out as you want it to.
It's set around Seth's birthday, a surprise party that his mother and Summer cooked up, and what that means for Seth and Summer's "friendship."
“To tell you the truth, Ryan, I’m getting a little old.”
Ryan smiled. “Is that so?”
“Yes. I mean I’m seventeen now. The golden years are over.”
“I see why that would make you so upset.”
“Yeah. I mean what’s there to look forward to? College? Who cares? Drinking? Whatever.”
Ryan laughed, “Now you can go see rated R movies without me buying the tickets for you.”
“Oh. Ha ha,” Seth said in a way that showed he was only mildly amused by Ryan’s attempt at a joke, “You only did that for me once.”
If you're ever looking just to have a smile put on your face, I'd recommend reading this story.
