At dinner Delia and Andy sat in silence.
Andy: Delia, I thought we talked about this, I thought you were ok with it.
Delia: I never said I was, you just said I should be. (she gets up) I'm going to the bathroom (she walks away)
Andy: (sighs) hurry back (he yells in her direction)
When Delia returned Andy saw the tears in her eyes.
Andy: Delia, why were you crying?
She didn't answer, just looked out the window.
Andy: Delia please talk to me, if this is really bothering you that much I'll-
Delia: (cutting him off) you'll dump her?! (she says with a smile on her face)
Andy: (continuing) no...what I was going to say was maybe I'll get us both someone to talk to, together, you know so we can work this thing out.
Delia: (very loudly) I am not crazy!
Andy: I didn't say you were sweetheart (he tries to comfort her and she pulls away and looks out the window) Delia, therapists aren't just for crazy people, they help normal people out with things, and they are just there to listen.
Delia: whatever
A tear slowly rolled down her cheek. Andy decided to leave it alone for now.
Andy: so what movie do you want to see?
Delia: whatever (she says still looking at the window)
Andy: I was thinking Peter Pan
Delia: that's for babies, I am NOT a baby!
Andy: Ok, I know you aren't a baby but I haven't heard any suggestions from you...
Delia: Can we just go home?
Andy: I would take you home sweety but Ephram has a date tonight.
Delia: Then can you drop me off at Nina's and you can go see Peter Pan
Andy: (sighs) I guess so (he picks up his phone and dials Nina's number)
While Andy was having no luck with Delia, Ephram and Madison were still making out on the couch.
Ephram: (pulling away and looking at his watch) 8:50 (he said smiling at Madison) we have a lot of time.
Madison: yup (she says knowing what Ephram is thinking)
Ephram: (hearing Madison's tone and realizing she is not going to break her promise quickly changes the unspoken subject) So, do you want some ice cream? We have cookie dough.
Madison: (thankful that she wouldn't have to deal with something she really wanted to do but knew she couldn't) sure.
They got up and went to the kitchen. Madison got out 2 bowls and 2 spoons while Ephram got out the ice cream. They fed each other spoonfuls of ice cream.
Ephram semi-purposely got a little ice cream on Madison's nose.
Ephram: I'll get that. (he kisses it off)
They laughed together. Then Madison put ice cream all over Ephram's lips
Madison: I'll get that (she kisses him and they put their ice cream down and go back to the couch)
Madison: Let's see what on (as she turns on the TV)
Ephram: Nothing is on, it's Saturday.
Madison: Darn (she says sarcastically as she moves towards Ephram)
They started to kiss again. Ephram's hands ran up and down Madison. He slowly started to move them up her shirt
Madison: God, your hands are freezing!
Ephram: I know I was trying to warm them up
Madison: Uh huh (she says sarcastically) (she grabs his hands and rubs them in hers) There that's better.
Ephram: Thanks (sarcastically)
Madison: (laughing) what am I gonna do with you?
Ephram: Anything (seriously)
Madison: (straightens her face) Ephram you know...we can't...not now.
Ephram: Why, it isn't like I'm gonna go and tell him
Madison: I know...but what if he suddenly comes home...or...or what if we're just not ready?
Ephram: You don't think I'm ready?! Oh I'm ready-totally ready
Madison: I know you are ready and I am ready but...our WE ready?
Ephram: I don't get it...
Madison: Well we haven't really talked about it, I mean- well I mean they say a couple isn't ready till they can talk about it comfortably.
Ephram: (sitting up) ok then lets talk about it, I'm feeling comfy already
Madison: Ephram...
Ephram: What? You want to talk about it, I am sitting right here, lets talk about it.
Madison: ..Ok let's talk...so....
Ephram: So...
Madison: have you ever...um...you know...had sex before?
Ephram: (now UNcomfortable) well...no, you?
Madison: (now comfortable talking about it) yes
Ephram: (looks away when he hears this) oh...
Madison: Ephram, you wanted to talk about it, but if you are uncomfortable then we can change the subject
Ephram; (quickly) no-I am totally fine, I can't say the same for my dignity though.
Madison: (laughing) ok... you sure?
Ephram: yeah...so when...did it happen?
Madison: I was 17 my first time. I was with this guy for 2 years at the time. It just seemed like the next step you know?
Ephram: yeah I guess (he didn't like hearing about this and his jealousy was kicking in)
Madison: The thing is, I was with him for 2 and a half years, but I feel more for you now then I ever did for him.
Ephram: Really? (he was happy now)
Madison: Yeah (she bit her lip and blushed)
Ephram: (leans in and kisses her) so...was he the only guy? (hoping she would reply with a yes)
Madison: yeah, he was the only guy.
Ephram: That's nice to know.
Madison: Am I sensing jealousy?
Ephram: (smiles at her) oh yeah (he leans in and kisses her.)
They started making out on the couch. This time when Ephram ran his hand up Madison's shirt she said nothing.
Andy: Delia, I thought we talked about this, I thought you were ok with it.
