Tentative Title: Soulmates for Life
Author: Moonlighter719 (aka Gaby of Everwood Scripts & Transcripts)
Pairing: Bright/Ephram, third person POV
Inspired by: The thought that came to me one night is that of what if Bright tried to convince Ephram to stay in Everwood in the summer instead the attempt by his sister Amy. Title is from the "real life" conversation in which Bright says the term "soulmate for life."
Rating: PG-13 (if you think it needs an R, lemme know by reviewing it. This is my first male/male slashy fanfic despite loving all the subtext on the screen in various shows for last two years or so. especially with these two.) - anyway, there might be some language issues, guy slash (not really naughty but there is definitely an undercurrent that's more out in the open now), and that just might be it.
Disclaimer: Not my world. It belongs to people like Greg Berlanti and Mickey Liddell and the folks at Warner Bros. Television. If I did own the show and the characters, then there would be mayhem with all the slash couples on this show. Not only do I love the undercurrent of Bright/Ephram but I also like the idea of Andy and the other Dr. Abbott {Harold} together and Amy/Laynie.
Summary: Bright convinces Ephram to stay in Everwood for the summer and not to go to the Julliard program.

Again, note this is slash where guys eventually are going to end up with guys. If you don't like this idea, then click on the button that will take you out of this fic 'cause you probably wouldn't like this one.

CHAPTER 3 – Uncomfortable

At six forty-three, Ephram arrives at the Abbott household to pick up Amy. He rings the doorbell. He hears Amy call to her brother, "Can you get that, Bright?"

Bright does answer the door, "Looking spiffy, dog."

Ephram replies, "Thank you. And what did I say about calling me, 'dog'?"

"Sorry, dude. It slipped out."

Ephram grows slightly uncomfortable when Bright said "dude." Reminding him of earlier today. "So is Amy coming down?"

No later than that being uttered, Amy walks down the stairs, looking stunningly beautiful in a summer dress. She notices some slight uncomfortableness between her brother and her boyfriend. "So what's up with you two?"

They clam up, "Nothing."

"So that's how it's going to be, eh?"

Bright is first able to speak, "Be home by ten."

Amy sarcastically replies as she leaves the house, "Thanks, Dad."
