Part 2- At the Brown's
Disclaimer- I still don't own Everwood, or Ephram for that matter ~sob~. Read, review, and enjoy!
After a tear filled, sleepless night, Amy arrived at the Brown's. Nina answered the door, and ushered Amy inside.
Delia was sitting on Dr. Brown's lap crying quietly, while Dr. Brown stared off into space. Sam was asleep on the couch, and Nina, who had been there since she had heard the news the evening before, was in the kitchen making tea.
Amy sat down next to Sam, taking care not to wake him up. The silence in the room was deafening. *I shouldn't have come* Amy thought.
Nina entered carrying a tray that held a teapot and several cups. As she set it down on the table, the cups rattled making Dr. Brown jump.
"I should call Julia's parents again"
Nina placed her hand on his shoulder. "They're probably already on their way here Andy. They'll call from the airport."
Delia slid off Dr. Brown's lap, and Dr. Brown stood and grabbed his coat off a hook on the wall.
"Daddy?" Delia asked in a small voice. "Where are you going? Stay here.please"
"There are things that need to be taken care of Delia. Stay here with Nina and wait for you grandparents. I'll be back son."
"Promise?" Delia asked as she started to cry.
"I promise" Dr. Brown said.
"I- I should go too" Amy said standing up.
"Why don't you stay and have lunch with Sam and Delia? You don't look like you've eaten much today." Nina said.
"I can't." Amy said, pulling on her coat. "Not now, not today."
She hugged Delia goodbye, and slipped out the front door.
*Delia and Dr. Brown had already been through so much, why did this have to happen to them? *
She wandered through a nearby park. She'd often walked here with Colin, they'd thought it was romantic. She'd walked here with Ephram too, the night she and Colin had broken up. *I knew then. * She thought. * I could have told him that night. Things might be different if I had, may he'd be here, maybe he wouldn't be-* Overcome with grief, Amy sat down on a deserted bench and cried. She cried for Delia, Dr. Brown, and their family. She cried for Colin and Laynie and Wendell, and all of Ephram's friends in New York, but mostly, she cried for herself.

A/N- This definitely isn't my finest chapter, but I thought there needed to be a sort of transition between this and the funeral. Part 3, which I have already started working on, will be much better, I promise!
Lots of love,
