3 more days passed, Jay has left roses on Madison's doorstep every night, she just leaves them outside to rot. Things have been great with her and Ephram. It was Friday afternoon and they planned to go to Madison's tonight since they've agreed not to go out in public.
Ephram: (coming down the stairs) almost ready?
Madison: Your dad isn't home yet...
Ephram: Delia can just go to Nina's (suggestively)
Madison: I offered...she said she doesn't like Sam anymore.
Ephram: Since when? (worried their plans might be ruined) I'll go talk to her.
Madison: No, Ephram it's ok...kids get tired of other kids...it's no big deal.
Ephram: It is to me, what are we gonna do? What if my dad doesn't come home?
Madison: Well hopefully he'll be here soon, but we aren't gonna make Delia suffer because we had plans.
Ephram: Why not?
Madison: (shaking her head and smiling) Don't worry...I'm sure your dad will be home soon.
Just then the door opened, it was Andy.
Madison: (looking up) see what did I tell you. (she stood up) Hi Dr. Brown...Delia is in her room and there is soup warming up on the stove.
Andy: Thanks Madison...what are you guys up to? (curious)
Ephram: We're just going out, food will most likely be involved.
Andy: Ok, but be back by 11...and I don't think I have to remind you of the rules.
Ephram: (pointing to his head) They're all right here.
Andy: glad to hear it. Ok...go and have fun...not too much.
Ephram: See ya. (he grabs both of their coats and puts Madison's on for her)
They walked out the door. When they got to Madison's house they got out and walked to her door. There was another bouquet of roses waiting for her.
Madison: Jeez when will he learn. (she picks up the roses and looks at the card)
Madison threw them on the pile with the other roses.
Ephram: He's been sending you roses? (wondering why she didn't tell him)
Just then a car stopped at the curb and Jay got out.
Jay: What the hell is he doing here?!
Madison: I think the question is what the hell are you doing here?!
Jay: I came to see you
Madison: How many times do I have to tell you-
Jay: What is he doing here?!
Madison couldn't think of anything, then suddenly Ephram spoke.
Ephram: I'm helping her move some furniture around.
Madison: (looked at Ephram and smiled thanking him for thinking of something) why do you care anyway?
Jay: You asked him to help you? You should have asked a real man!
Ephram rolled his eyes and looked away. He couldn't believe this guy.
Madison: Jay, you really should go.
Jay: I can help...I'm sure the kid won't be able to lift the heavy stuff.
Ephram was getting really pissed and Madison could tell.
Madison: Jay, leave before you do something stupid.
Jay: I'm not the one who thinks he has a chance with his babysitter!
Ephram was about to punch him, Madison had never seen him this mad. She turned towards him.
Madison: Ephram, let's just go... (she tried to lead him to the door but he pulled away. He just stood there staring at Jay) Ephram-
Jay: C'mon kid...don't just stand there. (Jay made fists with his hands, Ephram just stood there, motionsless)
Madison: Ephram...don't...just come inside. (She grabbed his arm and tried to pull him, he finally turned around and started to walk towards the door)
Jay: Sissy...the nanny had to save you!
Ephram: Get over yourself. (As soon as Ephram said that Jay ran towards him, crashing Ephram into the ground)
Madison: (jumping out the of the way) Jay! (she tried to get closer to pull him off, but Jay was too strong, he started to punch Ephram) Get off him!....Oh my god! (she didn't know what to do, there was no way she could stop Jay)
Jay: That'll teach you to stay away from my girl. (he got up and pulled the bleeding Ephram up by his shirt, then he pushed him against the wall of the house)
Jay left him there and walked back to his car. Madison rushed towards Ephram who had slid to the ground. His nose was bleeding along with his lip.
Madison: Oh my god, Ephram...I'm so sorry.
Ephram: (touching his nose and his lip then checking the blood on his hand) I guess you were right...
Madison: Right about what? (touching his beaten face, only to see him cringe)
Ephram: I couldn't take him. (he cracks a smile and so does she)
Ephram: (coming down the stairs) almost ready?
