A/N: Hey Everyone! So I thought I would update today, and break the long streak of not doing so. Hope you all enjoy this chapter I know how much we all need a little E/M in our lives right now. I also want to thank all the reviews for their support and encouragement, it means a lot to me. So enough of me taking here's the story…

It was as if the last year had not happened. Madison couldn't think of a time when she had been this happy. She knew she had missed Ephram, but she hadn't realized how much until she was with him again. Everything just seemed to work it's self out as the days went on.

Madison was currently waiting for Ephram to come and pick her up, for their date. And against much protest of her own, they were going rollerblading. She had made the mistake of confessing to him one night that she didn't know how to rollerblade and he had looked at her as though she had three heads.

"I can't believe it. I'm gonna have to do something about that, because it's just plain wrong." Replied Ephram to Madison's confession.

"I really have no desire to learn Eph, I enjoy being able to stand on both my legs without falling over" laughed Madison at the thought of herself trying to rollerblade.

And so it had begun. She was now sitting on her porch bracing herself for what the day had in store for her.

Dressed in a pair of simple cut off jean shorts and a tank top, Madison sat on a bench while Ephram made sure she was wearing every possible pad known to man.

"I think I could get hit by a truck and not feel anything. Do you really think all this is necessary?" questioned Madison with a smirk.

"Well we'll save the truck test for next time, and as for the pads have you seen what kind of co-ordination you have. I'm not taking any chances with you" Joked Ephram as he extended his hands to Madison allowing her to balance herself on him and stand.

"You know I never pictured you as the 'rollerblading' type." Stated Madison as she slowly made it to her feet.

"Well I'm full of surprises" winked Ephram as he gave Madison a quick peck on the lips, and tightened his grip on her.

"As long as one of your surprises isn't letting me go we should be just fine" replied Madison. Holding onto Ephram for dear life.

"I'm not going to let you go. I've got you, you are completely safe. Now trust me and move your feet" laughed Ephram at Madison's stiffness.

"Easy for you to say Mr. I know what I'm doing" replied Madison as she slowly moved her feet.

The day had been perfect. The sun was shining, the weather was great, and they were together laughing and being themselves there was no other way either of them would have had it.

"Please Ephram. It's not like were that far anyway." Begged Madison with a face that was pleading to Ephram.

"I am not carrying you back. I was right next to you and I'm some how still walking" Laughed Ephram at Madison. She had been begging him to give her a piggy back ride the rest of the way home for the last ten minutes. He knew he would eventually give in and carry her, but watching her was becoming very entertaining.

"Yes, but the thing is…you are just so much stronger then I am." Joked Madison as she saw that he was finally caving. She had begun to wonder if he liked watching her beg.

"Fine hop on. It's not like I mind having you wrapped around me anyway." Replied Ephram as he let Madison get on his back.

"You're the best." Stated Madison as she kissed Ephram before she hopped onto his back. "Now just imagine how much energy I'll have when we get home" whispered Madison into Ephram's ear as he carried her.

"Are you trying to make me stop walking here?" Asked Ephram as he held Madison.

"No I wanna get home before I let that happen." Laughed Madison as she kissed him on the cheek.

They continued this playful banter almost all the way home before Madison heard her name being called from behind her.

"Madison….I thought that was you." Replied the voice once Madison got off of Ephram and turned around.

"Hi…" was all Madison could manage to get out. She couldn't believe her perfect day was going to end on this note.

"I heard you were back in town but I didn't think it was true. It's really good to see you." Said the person standing in front of Madison.

"Yeah you too. It's been a really long time." Replied Madison trying to be polite. She could only imagine what thoughts were going through Ephram's head right now.

"Yeah it has. It's been way too long… you look fantastic" He stated looking her over not noticing the awkward silence. Breaking it himself he asked "are you going to introduced me to your new friend Maddy?" as he seemed to be oblivious to whom he was looking at.

"It's not a new friend. And you guys have met before. It's Ephram, you remember Ephram don't you?" questioned Madison waiting to see the fireworks begin.

"Ohhh…yeah of course." Laughed the person as if Madison wasn't being serious. "Don't tell me you guys are dating again." Said the figure in a sarcastic tone.

"Yeah we are, is that a problem Jay?" asked Ephram as he stepped closer to Madison and entwined their fingers.

There you go! Now press that button and REVIEW! Till next time, which will hopefully be a lot sooner, hope you enjoyed the chapter. –Anna
