A/N: Thanks to everyone who reviewed the last chapter! I promise that Madison will be making her big appearance in just a few chapters! Also, just so everyone understand, I didn't choose Amy's costume because I'm religious. Because I'm not, in fact, I have some serious issues with Christianity. No offence to any of my readers who may be Christian. I just chose this costume because it goes along with Amy being pregnant and all.
3.20 Mother Amy
----October 31, 2004----
"Look Ephram, it's almost dark!" Delia announced, as she pointed out the window. She couldn't wait to go trick-or-treating. Halloween was one of her favorite holidays because she got candy and she could dress up. "Come on, what are you gonna be?"
"You'll see." Ephram said. He turned to go to his room, when he spotted Amy walking down the hallway. "Amy...You look beautiful!" He paused. "What are you?"
Amy placed her hand over her almost 6 month pregnant belly. "Can't you tell?"
Delia raised her hand. "I know, I know!"
"A woman from the old days?" Ephram asked.
Amy rolled her eyes. "No, silly! I'm Mother Mary!"
"Oh! That's right, I knew that! I was just joking with ya!" Ephram tried to cover.
"Whatever!" Delia said, with a roll of her brown eyes. She adjusted her golden halo and then grabbed a set of fake angel wings and put them on.
"You look beautiful, Delia!" Amy commented.
"Too bad the angels are crying right now." Ephram joked.
Delia reached over and smacked Ephram on the arm.
Ephram glared at his little sister and reached over to slap her back.
Amy walked over and grabbed Ephram's hand. "Better not mess with the angels. They'll gang up on you." Amy warned.
Ephram made a pouty face.
Amy kissed him on the cheek. "You know, you look really cute when you pout."
Ephram kissed Amy back. "Thanks."
"Go get changed. We have a long night ahead of us!"
Ephram nodded and hurried off to his room.
"So, where do we go first?" Amy asked, as she turned to Delia.
"Let's stop by your Grandma's house first." Delia suggested.
Amy winked. "They give out really big candy bars and so do the people that live up there! Smart choice!"
Andy walked into the room. He was dressed in a white lab coat and had a headband on his head, that made it look like a knife was going through his head. "Who wants a shot?" He asked, in a crazy voice, as he held up a fake needle.
"Oh! Nice outfit, Dr. Brown. A mad doctor?" Amy asked.
Andy nodded. "I hope you don't mind, but Nina and Sam are coming with us. They should be over any mi..." He was cut off by the doorbell. He walked over to the door and opened it to find Nina and Sam. "Hey Nina, hey Sam. We're just waiting on Ephram and he shouldn't be too much longer."
"Oh, that's fine." Nina said, as she led Sam into the house. "Nice outfit, Andy."
"Thanks. Yours isn't too bad yourself." Andy replied.
Nina was dressed as Morticia Adams and Sam was dressed as a G.I. Joe.
"Ready!" Ephram announced, as he walked into the room. He was dressed as werewolf.
"Hey look everyone, Ephram's a puppy for Halloween!" Delia announced.
Everyone burst out laughing.
"Delia!" Ephram growled, as he lunged at his little sister.
Amy shook her finger at Ephram. "Bad werewolf! Bad! You have to sleep outside tonight!"
That comment sent another burst of laughter through the room, except for Ephram.
"Ugh..Why did you have to befriend my sister?" Ephram moaned.
Amy grinned. "Hey, maybe our daughter will be like Delia, here!"
"Don't jinx her!" Ephram gasped. He walked over to Amy and took off his mask and leaned down to Amy's stomach. "Your Mother didn't mean it sweetheart, really, she didn't!"
Amy whacked Ephram on the head. "Put the mask back on. You're scaring the baby."
Ephram glared at his fiance and put his mask back on. "And for the record, I put it on because I wanted to, not because you said so."
"Sure ya did." Amy replied, sarcastically.
"I think it's time to go!" Andy said. He opened the door. "Where to first?"
"I think Delia wanted to go over by my Grandparents' house." Amy said.
"Amy says they have good candy." Delia added.
"Is that okay with you, Sam?" Andy asked.
Sam shrugged. "As long as they have good candy."
"Then all is settled. Let's go!" Andy said, as he walked out the door, followed by everyone else.
----4 Hours Later----
"My feet are killing me!" Delia moaned.
"My stomach hurts." Sam complained. He rubbed his stomach.
"I told you not to each so much candy." Nina scolded her son.
"Should we call it a night?" Andy asked.
"Yeah.." Delia and Sam moaned.
Ephram scooped his sister into his arms. "Come on, I think the car's that way." He said, as he turned and walked the other way.
----10 Minutes Later----
"Is everyone buckled in?" Andy asked.
Sam swayed back and forth in the back seat.
"Yep." Amy called.
Suddenly Sam lurched forward and vomited all over.
"Oh gross!" Delia cried, as she covered her mouth and opened the door that she was sitting by. "I think I'm gonna be sick!"
Amy closed her eyes and opened the door she was sitting by too, hoping she wouldn't be sick.
Unfortunately for Ephram, he was stuck between Amy and Sam. "Oh..Dad!"
Nina gave Andy an apologetic look at Andy. "Oh God! I'm so sorry Andy!"
Andy shook his head and patted Nina's shoulder. "No need. I've lost track of how many times that happened when Ephram and Delia were really little." He got out of the car. "Let's just get this cleaned up."
