On their drive home, Madison was smiling to herself as Jess talked about the events of the night. "so, you're really taken with him, aren't you?" Madison nodded, still smiling. Jess continued "Did you think you'd fall for him? I mean, in the beginning did you think your relationship would develop the way it has?"
"You know," replied Madison, "I never imagined any of this happening. I mean, he makes me feel so good, even if it's just by holding me, and he's done so much for me. At first, I have to admit, it kind of scared me, sort of very overwhelming, you know…but now…It's just so amazing the way he makes me feel. Its like he's at least my age rather than four years younger."
"have you told him about New York?"
"that I have. It was so hard though. It's going to be hard to adjust. So, what are your plans for tomorrow? I'm going over to Ephram's to spend 'quality time' with his little sister. You should come along before you head home!"
The next day around 10am they decided to head over to Ephram's and spend time with Delia. She was up and waiting, very excited about the day even though she was coming down with a cold, sneezing and coughing, almost losing her voice.
Jess kept her entertained while Madison went up to Ephram's room. He seemed to be sleeping so she snuck in and sat on his bed. He grabbed her and pulled her backwards onto the bed. She laughed because she wasn't expecting that as Ephram propped himself on an elbow to get a better look at her. She whispered, "morning" as she ran her fingers through his hair. He leaned down to give her a sweet kiss. As he broke away, she pulled him back towards her and slipped her tongue into his mouth, kissing him deeply. "I wanted to do that last night, but I thought it might have been a little rude for Jess to watch our PDA." She smiled at him, touching his face. "So, you're birthday is next week, what are we gonna do?"
"Anything that involves spending time with you." He leaned in and kissed her slowly then said, "you better go before Delia has a fit. Not that she can scream since she's losing her voice, but all the same" he helped her up and told her he'd be down in a few.
When Madison made her way downstairs, Delia was having a laughing fit because Jess was doing some wacky things to entertain her. Jess chuckles, "No wonder you love this family, especially this here little one! She laughs at everything!"
"Madison," replied Delia after one of her laughing fits, "instead of going out, can we just stay in and take a nap…or else…me sleep!"
"Only if you want to, sweetie, but don't you want to do anything fun?"
"Jess did enough to keep me entertained for a week! I'm just so tired because of this cold or whatever."
Madison kissed Delia's forehead then nodded that it would be alright to stay at home. She noticed Ephram was peering his head around the doorway and she smiled and winked at him. Jess noticed that it looked as if some air escaped Madison, as if, just being in the same room as Ephram, he takes her breath away. She went over to her, "so, you weren't kidding about the whole 'taking your breath away', so romantic." she whispered in a little kid voice as Madison blushed and smiled. Jess continued, "geeze woman, go meet him in the kitchen and have your make-out session! I got this kid!" she smiled towards Delia who was sitting on the couch, trying not to fall asleep.
Ephram was in the kitchen, getting something from one of the cupboards when he saw something from the corner of his eye and flinched. Madison saw this and couldn't help but let out a little chuckle, "oh sweetie! I didn't mean to scare you!"
He turned around and placed his arms around her waist as she put her arms around his neck and they leaned in for a meaningful hug, whispering sweet nothings into each other's ears. Ephram kissed her neck, then kissed her slowly on the lips, making it last. "I love you Madison" he whispered as he pulled away. The two of them walked into the living room where the other two were and decided to join the on the couch, holding hands. Jess looks at them and says, "well, this kid's out like a light, didn't take much!"
They were talking and joking and laughing for a couple hours before Jess said, "Well, I have to go home now, dude! Nice meetin' ya Ephy!" she smiled as she pulled him up to give him another hug. "I am gonna steal Maddi, aight, but no worries bro, you'll get her back tonight! And dude! Have a great birthday next week!"
Ephram walked the two outside, Madison said, "see you tonight?"
"Yeah, I'll come over at 6pm?"
Madison smiled, touching his arm, "sounds good, see you then." She leaned in and kissed him deeply before heading to her car with Jess.
~~~Authors Note; Even though Madison's birthday comes before Ephram's on the show, I think a 5 year age difference is too much, so I'm going to make Ephram's birthday come first!!!~~~
