Well everyone else was updating like once a day so I figured I would update. As you can see, I'm a follower...not a leader. lol. I hope I didn't get anyone's hopes up when I said I had a lil something planned- cause that's just it, I have it planned...I haven't actually written it yet, but not to worry, I'm going to...and it's going to be great (I hope) so keep reading and reviewing...the "lil something" will come.
Madison shook her head, "You're joking right? Ephram...these are your grandparents! They had no idea that you and I even dated...and you're just gonna walk in with our child without having a plan!?"
Ephram shrugged, he hadn't really thought that much about it, he just couldn't wait to see his father's face, "Well what do you think we should do?"
Madison looked out her window, "I dunno...maybe you should go in first...maybe...I dunno"
Ephram looked over at her, "Well if I go in first, what am I supposed to say? 'Oh yeah...and by the way- last year I went out with Delia's baby-sitter and now we have a kid together...they're in the car-wanna meet them?' that'll go over really well"
Madison sighed, "Maybe this was a bad idea..."
Ephram quickly shook his head, "No-no it wasn't a bad idea...this is the best way to do this...we just have to figure out a good approach..."
Madison looked over at him, "I really don't think there is a good way to approach this"
"Well...we can show up at the door...they'll ask a lot of questions...eventually the truth will come out...then...we run"
Madison laughed, "yeah...that sounds great...wait-so...where are we staying?"
Ephram shook his head, "Didn't think about that either...I don't think we should stay at the house...I wouldn't feel too safe...there's a motel just outside of town..."
"Yeah...that could work...so graduation is on Saturday?" she asked.
"Yeah" Ephram nodded.
"And when are your finals?"
"Tuesday and Wednsday...then I'm done"
Madison looked at him, "are you prepared?"
Ephram glanced at her, as they passed the Everwood city limits sign, "Well...not really...but I don't really need to be...as long as I pass"
"So I guess you're really going through with this year-off thing" she said.
Ephram nodded, "Yeah...I'm pretty sure..."
Madison sighed, "Are you sure you don't want to think about it more...maybe consider some other options?"
Ephram looked over at her, "God you're just in a rush to get me outa the way aren't you?" he joked.
Madison smiled, "Oh yeah...I would just love to have to do all the work myself...that's exactly what I want"
Ephram laughed, "I knew it!"
They got to the Brown house about 5 minutes later. Ephram looked at the clock, it was 4pm. He had told his dad he would be there at 3, so he would be there when his grandparents arrived, but he decided to be late. Maybe this would make his dad regret his decision.
Just as they pulled into the driveway, Julia started to cry.
Madison got out of the car and went back to her, "I'll get it Ephram...just go inside...you're late enough."
Ephram got out of the car, "Well what am I supposed to do? Just act normal?"
Madison shook her head as she grabbed the diaper bag, "I dunno...I told you, you should have had a plan"
Ephram sighed, "I'll come get you in a little while ok?"
Madison nodded, "Sure"
Ephram turned towards the house and started walking up the path. He hesitated, but finally knocked on the door.
Sorry this chapter was so short. I wanted to leave you all wanting more! I'll update as soon as I finish writing the next chapter...if I get good reviews that is!
