Thank you guys for reading this! Especially to my reviewers: Alison Wonderland: thanks for reading this story and dealing with my completely hyper antics through school. Ditey: Thank you for following me through If Only and this new story! You seem to constantly be on the look out for me! (Well, at least I'm always on the lookout for great reviews from you!) Thank you for filling my inbox. For that, you deserve to be mentioned in this! Alien: I guess Ephram's reaction was a little weird, but wouldn't you be happy if your best friend came to visit after three months of separation? I would! YouDon'tKnowWhoIAm: thanx for the review. Sorry I made you go through the 'm'lady crap', but I couldn't resist. I'm glad you liked the rest though. TimeTravller: sorry about the cliffhanger, but now you don't have to worry! SpeakEasy: thank you for the review. I like that this doesn't really have any A/E pairing too, but if it does, it will be very, very slight. This story is more about friendship and Amy pining for Ephram instead of the opposite.
I'm enjoying writing this, but I've had a lot on my plate, so it may take a while to update chapters through this story. On with the story!
CHAPTER 2
"So, where are we again?" Genevive asked. They were sitting in the woods next to a river. It was a beautiful day. The sun as shining, and a ton of animals were out. The duffle bag had been left at Andy's office on the way there.
"This is where the Kissing Bridge used to be before it got demolished," Ephram answered, staring at the spot. She was so beautiful, he could hardly stand it She seemed so... pure, or, something like that, yet so... sexy.
"How romantic..." Genevive stated sarcastically. "Old bridges with weird names get blown up! On tonight at ten" she leaned back and laid her head in Ephram's lap, closing her eyelids. He started combing her hair with his fingers as he chuckled slightly. Genevive had always had the weirdest sense of humor.
"So... what are you doing here Gen? And how did you get here? I know you can't drive..." Ephram asked Genevive. She sat up and started mussing Ephram's hair. She leaned her head into his chest and twirled the hair at the nape of his neck between her long, slender fingers.
"I came to see my best buddy, of coarse!" she exclaimed. "Besides, I've been planning this with your loony dad for months!" Ephram looked at her face. He got stuck in the moment and suddenly realized that his eyes were shut and he was breathing heavily.
"Hey! You're dodging the question. How did you get here?" he persisted.
"Ok, you caught me. I found my unicorn being bad with your unicorn so I took my flying car instead," she whispered into his ear.
"Very Harry Potter-esque,' he said laughing.
"Well, when you're kid sister goes on and on about it like the Energizer Bunny, it's hard not to pick it up. Hey, can I bum a cigarette off of you?" she asked.
"Nope, I quit right before I moved," he said straightening up, looking very proud.
"Wow, cold turkey?" she said with much surprise.
"Cold turkey,"
"Just like that?"
"Just like that,"
"Wow." she repeated. "Well, if you can do it, I can do it. Here, take this," Genevive reached into the back pocket of her skirt and handed him a purple lighter with a green fairy on it. "So I can't be tempted,"
"Thanks, but it's gonna be hard!"
"I'm ready!" she said revved up.
"You sure?"
"Positive. Besides, it's more healthy," she said as she sat in his lap and laid her head on his shoulder and her arms draped around his neck lazily.
"Ya think?" he answered lazily. "So really, why are you here?" he persisted once more. Gen was not the kind of person to just come out for no reason. She wanted something, and she wanted it now.
"Hey, Earth to Ephram. I miss you! That's it! No games. Really," she looked into his icy blues and they suddenly seemed to melt.
* What's happening to me? I can't fall for her again! I love Amy! AMY! NOT Genevive. Then, what are these butterflies in my stomach? *
"Ok," he let go of it. He'd find out sooner or later. He remembered the time when he wasn't sure what was going on. Gen had called and invited him over to her house and said to come soon. She said it was "time to part" on the phone, whatever that meant, but it was the complete opposite. When he had gotten to her house, the cars were gone and she let him in. That was the first time they, well, you know. That was when they first started dating.
Genevive quickly stood up and brushed the dirt off her skirt.
"Let's go walk," she told him as she helped him up. The water was sparkling and you could see tiny fish swimming around. Gen laced her fingers with Ephram's and walked backwards. When they got to the edge of the river, Genevive got closer. She put her hands on his chest, stepped closer, and nudged a kiss onto his lips. They stayed like that for a while, until Gen parted to breathe, pushed Ephram into the water, and dove in after him.

Amy sat in math class and looked at the clock across the room. * Half an hour to go * she told herself. This was usually her favorite period of the day, but she just couldn't concentrate. * Ugggh! All of this hurts my head. I just can't think straight! I am soooooo weird! Why is it that I can't concentrate? It's not as if I'm... jealous... well, not really jealous at least. I mean, he said they weren't together anymore. Ahhh. but when I see him, I'm Jell-O. The red kind, not the blue, the blue is gross. How weird can I get, I'm talking about what kind of Jell-O I am! Anyways, when I see her with him I'm an evil tiger prowling the jungle, rrow! * Amy accidentally laughed out loud. Everyone in the class turned to look at her in unison. Amy felt her cheeks redden quickly and looked down at her empty page of notes in front of her.
"What is so funny about variables, Miss Abbott?" the teacher asked with red, pursed lips.
"Nothing, nothing at all. Sorry," she said turning to all her classmates. Every one turned back around and Amy started working on her notes.
(A/N) Sorry about all the banter between Gen and Ephram but I had to have you get to know Gen a little bit better. I promise you that later in the story will be a whole chapter explaining Ephram and Genevive's past so keep reviewing if you want to get there. Once again, please review!
Love,
~*~Shelly~*~
P.S. I forgot to mention in the first chapter, but Gen's hair is short, and she is slightly supposed to look a little bit like Chloe Sullivan from Smallville, if you ever watch that show.
