pSummary: A sugary sweet story where Ephram finally finds a true love that returns his.

pSpoilers: none

pAuthor's Note: This is meant to be a short story-you only get the just of what happened (flashbacks)-it's meant to be this way but if I get some feedback I might start a series with Katee and Ephram.

p Ephram was walking down the halls of his school when he first saw her. He heart almost stopped right then and there. She was a million times more beautiful then Amy ever could be. She reminded him of New York in every possible way-she didn't look like towns folk or dress like any of them-hair golden brown with a Good Charlotte t-shirt on-black pants and a couple punk bracelets. Looking at her completely took the anguish away from the last few months. He had to find out her name.

p Ephram looked as if in deep thought. "Ephram?" Katee said, waving her hand in front of his face to get his attention. He snapped out of his daze. "Sorry?" he questioned, clearly not paying attention. "Am I babbling to much?" Katee asked, a twinkle in her eye. Ephram cracked a smile and shook his head. "Thinking about Amy?" Katee joked. Ephram had told Katee every little detail about his life-she had listened and sympathized when needed. The perfect girl. "No, I was thinking about something important." Ephram looked back, looking into Katee's blue-green eyes.

p "Students, we have a new arrival today, this is Katee Portman from Los Angeles, why don't you take the empty seat nest to Ephram?" Mrs. Lee said, motioning to where Ephram sat alone. Ephram looked up when he heard his name to find the beautiful girl from earlier walking towards him. Katee saw Ephram and almost died. He was punk just like her and he had this dark, tortured soul thing going on, Katee dug that. Katee sat beside him taking her bag off and setting it on the floor. Katee noticed he liked to read comics too, "Inu-Yasha; nice." Katee commented-nodding at Ephram's comic. HE looked a little startled that she was talking to him. "You read anime?" Ephram asked. "I'm a comic/anime junkie-it's like this obsession I have." Katee replied, smiling sheepishly. "Ephram Brown." Ephram introduced himself. "Katee Portman." Katee replied back, giving Ephram a grin.

p Katee laughed. "I remember that, you seemed like the only cool person in Ever wood, you know, besides myself." Katee joked, winking at Ephram. Her winks made Ephram melt. "You gotta stop doing that." Ephram requsted. "Doing what?" Katee asked innocently. "Doing things that-" Ephram started. "Ephram-just shut up and kiss me." Katee whispered-lips barely touching his. Ephram moved his head slightly so their lips connected-both caught in pure joy.

p The leaves crackled under Katee's shoes as she walked home from school. Ephram caught up with her from behind. "Hey Eph!" she greeted happy, taking in the crisp air. He joined her and they talked both heading home. "Ever seen 'Rush Hour 2'?" Ephram asked Katee. Katee shook her head, and grinning devilishly, she picked up a bunch of leaves hurling them at Ephram and laughing wildly. Katee fell over laughing as she tried to avoid Ephram's leafy fury. He fell to the ground beside her in hysterics. He smiled at her picking a leaf out of her hair. They caught each other gazes and Ephram and Katee leaned in for their first kiss.
