Chapter 5
"Realization"
"Ephram, get out here please I have something to tell you" Dr. Brown shouted.
Yeah, what is it?" Ephram replied shuffling himself to the living room.
"I have something very important to tell you"
"Dad what is it? What's Wrong? Is Amy ok?" Ephram sputtered concerned.
Dr. Brown just stood there giving an apologetic look.
"I've got to go to Amy's!" Ephram yelled as he ran out the door grabbing his jacket on the way out.
As Ephram got to Amy's house he saw Dr. Abbott come out to meet him. Dr. Abbott explained that Amy had locked herself in her room. As much as it hurt Ephram to think that she still cared so much about Colin, it hurt him even more to see her suffer.
"Amy let me in please" Ephram begged.
"Ephram like I have told you for the last 5 minutes I don't want you to see me like this!" Amy, whispered as she broke out in tears again.
"Amy, I love you, I have seen you like this before, I remember it as if it were yesterday. We can get through this together, like we always do. Please let me in!" Ephram pleaded. Then Ephram heard a click. Amy had unlocked the door. Ephram hurriedly opened the door. Ephram saw Amy sitting on her bed. Her eyes were all red and puffy. Ephram's heart broke at the site of her. It pained him to see her like this. Amy was on her bed rocking back and forth hugging her legs as tears threatened to burst from her eyelids. "Amy, you'll get better soon, I promise" Ephram assured her.
"No! I won't Colin's dead Ephram!" Amy hissed.
"It wasn't your fault" Ephram stated hurt.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bark at you like that..i didn't mean to."
"I know Amy, I know" Ephram said placing his arms around her and bringing her close.
"That doesn't mean I have a right to treat you like I don't care about you"
"No, but I still expect that you will do it every so often" Ephram admitted. "I'm sorry" Amy stated as she started to cry even harder. Ephram knowing she didn't want to talk anymore, just wrapped his arms around her even tighter. They sat there for hours in silence with Amy in Ephram's arms the whole time.
"Ephram, I told your dad that you'll be here the rest of the night" Dr. Abbott said as he peeked his head in Amy's room. Ephram then looked at him then looked back at Amy's sleeping figure. She looks so peaceful, Ephram thought. Ephram then tucked Amy into bed and ventured his way downstairs.
"Dr. Abbott, how did Colin die?"
"A blood vessel popped in his brain and he bleed to death internally" Dr. Abbott explained sadly.
"Do you think Amy will be alright, I know she still loved him?"
"Ephram, she has you, I know she will be fine. She loves you more"
"But I don't know what to do, he didn't die last time"
"Just go with the flow. Do what your heart tells you Ephram. I may not like you but I know you are the best person and the only person that can make her feel better. You can do it, I know you can."
"Well, at least one of us thinks that" Ephram sighed.
Meanwhile at the Brown's-
"So I am afraid Ephram will end up heartbroken. I don't think he can handle anymore heartbreaks" Dr. Brown cried.
"Andy, don't worry he will be fine. He and Amy will get though this together" Nina assured.
"I just hope your right."
"Have I ever given you a reason to doubt me?" Nina laughed as she moved closer to Andy.
"I don't know how to think you for everything you do for us" Andy stuttered becoming very aware that Nina is getting closer and closer. He found Nina leaning in and he found himself leaning forward like the wind suddenly sprouted muscles and was pushing him forward. Their soft moist lips met each others and they wrapped their warm comforting arms around each other. About five minutes later they pulled away.
"I'm so." Nina started.
"Don't be, because I'm not" Andy interrupted. Nina smiled and Andy continued, "Nina, I have been wanting to say this for so long, would you go out with me?"
"I would love you to" Nina said a little to quickly. Dr. Brown immediately planted another kiss on her lips.
"It's about time" a voice from behind them erupted suddenly. Startled they turned around quickly and spotted Delia next to the fridge.
"I just came to get a drink," Delia stated as she slipped out of the kitchen.
-Back at the Abbott's (Ephram's Pov)-
The Abbott's were nice enough to allow me to sleep on the bed with Amy. I knew I would always be there for her but I don't know if she will always let me. She tried to get me to go home. I know she loves me and she wants me but she just has a habit of pushing people she loves away. I think she blames herself for Colin's death. I feel helpless. All I can do is hold her and hope that's enough, at least for now.
