After the movie, and a couple hours of talking, Jess decided to go to bed. Not too long afterwards, Ephram declared, rubbing his eyes, "I am so tired right now."
Madison tilted her head, "no wonder, Ephram, you hadn't gotten any sleep in the passed two days. I noticed you dozed off a couple other times and you barely spoke when we talked afterwards with Jess."
Ephram yawned slowly, then stood up, "I'll see you later, I'm gonna head back to my dorm."
Madison stood up and pulled on his shirt, "Sweetie…its almost 2am and you don't seem like you'll make it to your car." She pulled him close, "why don't you stay here tonight?"
"If I wasn't so tired, I would definitely take advantage of that." he smiled wearily.
She smiled, leaning to him, "well then, guess I'll just have to take advantage of you then, wont I?" She kissed him slowly, pulling off his shirt, rubbing his chest before leading him to the bedroom.
Ephram lay on his stomach on Madison's bed and she climbed on top of him to massage his back. After a while, Ephram turned over and sat up, leaning back on his elbows. He tilted his head and smiled slightly.
"What are you thinking about?" Madison asked, brushing her fingers through his hair slowly.
Ephram simply whispered, "you…"
Madison took her fingers and placed them under Ephram's chin and kissed him sweetly.
"you mean the world to me, Madison…You inspire me to want to be more than I am…I love you so much." They kissed slowly, Ephram's hands on Madison's waist as he lay back on the bed, Madison laying on him, kissing him. Afterwards she slid off him, laying next to him, her arm around his midsection then whispered, "I love you, Ephram."
They fell asleep in each other's arms
The next morning, Ephram woke up to Madison planting little kisses all over his face. The sun was shining and flooding into the room, it was very early.
"Rrrrhhrrrr" Ephram mumbled as he rubbed his eyes to focus.
Madison laughed, "are you growling at me?!"
He opened one eye, "maybe." then closed his eyes tight and smiled widely as he stretched his arms.
Madison pulled his arm so he slid out of bed and onto the floor. She tried not to laugh.
"not funny!" Ephram smiled as he laid there.
"I have to leave for work in an hour, sweetie, so get your ass up so I can ogle you over breakfast before I go!"
Ephram held out his hands, a hint for Madison to help him up.
Jess met them at the table, but only for a minute or two before she headed out for the day.
"You know," Ephram said, "I've never seen this hour of the morning. Its rather new to me." he smiled as Madison looked at him.
"Welcome to my world, sweetie."
Finally the two got ready to leave and go their separate ways for the day. They walked arm in arm outside.
"I'll call you tonight" Madison said as she kissed him, "say hi to Leah for me."
Ephram pulled her in for a hug and they embraced, he whispering sweet nothings into her ear before they broke away, "I'll see you tomorrow?" he asked.
She smiled, "count on it." and they went their separate ways for the day.
