A/N: Thanks to everyone to reviewed! kursk: I'm glad you liked the detail I put into writing about the piano! Unfortunately, I wasn't planning on telling about Madison and Amy's conversation. However, since you wanted to know, I might do some sort of flashback thing in later chapters. ;) Thanks for commenting. auggy1984: Yeah. I likethe idea of Amy and Madison getting along. It fits for my storyline and so much humor can be pulled from that. Alixandra: Wow, thanks! That's actually what I really want to do! I LOVE writing! My dream job is to write episodes for some hit television show! And I'm glad that you're happy with Amy and Madison putting their issues aside.

4.07 All For One And One For All

----November 12, 2004----

Ephram gently took Amy's hand and helped her out of the hospital bed. It had been a week and she could go home now. "Are you sure you're feeling well enough to go home?"

"As well as can be expected." Amy replied. She kissed Ephram on the cheek. "I love that you care so much."

"And I just love that I can love you." Ephram replied.

"You should probably stay away from my house for a while, though. My Father is still really angry about the whole Madison situation." Amy warned.

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be. I think he's more mad your Dad, than at you. I think that he thinks, that none of this would of happened, if your dad had told you."

Ephram kissed Amy's neck. "He's right, none of it would of happened. I'd probably be back with Madison."

"But I'm glad you're with me." Amy replied. She leaned her head into Ephram's shoulder for a moment. "I hate leaving the hospital without Julia."

"I know."

"I'm afraid something terrible with happen once I'm gone."

Ephram gave his fiance a sympathetic look. "I know exactly how you feel. I've felt the same way, every time I've had to leave."

"Have you talked to your Dad yet?"

"No. I'm too furious to speak to him."

"What do you think we should do? I mean....you need to spend time with Julia and I need the help. But I know Madison does too." Amy carefully brushed her hair.

"I don't know yet. I want to get away, so I won't have to stay with my Father anymore, and I want Madison to move back to Everwood." Ephram replied, as he stared at the white walls.

"I've been thinking about that too." Madison said, from the doorway.

"Madison!" Ephram and Amy replied, in unison.

"Sorry..Did I interrupt something?" Madison asked.

"No, not at all." Amy replied. She motioned for Madison to come in. "Oh, you brought Kelly." She smiled. "Julia's not here right now though."

Madison walked in.

"You didn't interrupt anything." Ephram assured her. "Umm, what were you going to say?"

"I don't know.." Madison replied, distantly. "It's sort of an idiotic idea."

"Please, tell us." Amy offered.

"Eph, do you really want me to move back to Everwood?" Madison replied.

"Of course I do!" Ephram replied, sincerely.

"We do. Ephram shouldn't have to choose one daughter over the other." Amy replied.

Ephram grinned. "You're taking this better than I thought you would."

"Well, I had thought about for a long time." Amy replied. "I tried to make myself think about how I'd be feeling if I was in Madison's place and to tell you the truth, it sucked. I don't want to make this worse than it already is, for anyone. And I don't want my daughter to have to grow up without knowing her older sister."

"I think that's really mature of you, Amy. Thank you." Madison replied. She pulled a bottle from Kelly's diaper bag and put it into Kelly's mouth. "You should take a lesson from her, Ephram."

Ephram let out a little moan.

"Anyway, what were you planning on telling us?" Amy persisted.

"Well..." Madison said, trying to find the right words. "I was thinking that maybe....Team parent."

"'Team parent'?" Ephram asked.

"Yes." Madison replied.

"And that would include?" Ephram asked.

"Getting a mutual apartment. Three bedrooms. I could get a night job and..." Madison trailed off. "Like I said, stupid idea."

Amy and Ephram exchanged looks.

"No..Go on." Amy said, with a look of interest.

"She's right. Maybe you're on to something." Epham urged.

"Well you two have school and everything, so I was thinking that while you are at school, I could watch the girls. Then I could get a night job and go to work, while you two take care of the girls. That way we could keep an apartment and still work out a way to raise Kelly and Julia." Madison explained.

"But I have a job, after school in Denver." Ephram replied.

"Well..I could take care of the girls while you and Madison work." Amy replied. "And I could get a weekend job or something, so I could pitch in too. And you and Madison could take care of the girls on the weekend." Amy reasoned.

Ephram rolled the idea around in his head for a few minutes and then slowly shook his head. "I think..I think that's a brilliant idea! We'd all be getting what we want and it would work out great!"

"But there's only one problem." Amy said.

"What?" Ephram asked.

"Your parents." Madison replied. "I know, I already thought of that. You'd need permission to move out, since your both only seventeen."

"And my Father will never let me move out." Ephram concluded.

Amy's angelic face formed into a bitter frown. "My Dad would never allow it. I mean, and no offence Madison, but two females in one apartment, with one guy. My Dad is already ranting and raving about Ephram and you."

"And he was already upset about Amy and myself." Ephram replied. He folded his arms over his chest and contemplated the situation.

"They'd want adult supervision." Amy added.

"And I'm not exactly the ideal 'adult'." Madison finished. She exchanged looks with the 17-year-olds.

"Damn." Amy said, as she tossed her hands into the air. "It was a perfect plan too!"

Ephram cupped his chin with his hand and narrowed his eyes to the floor.

"What are you thinking about?" Madison and Amy asked, in unison, as they eyed Ephram.

Ephram raised his eyes and stared at his former and current loves. "That's creepy, you know."

"What?" Madison and Amy asked, together.

"That." Ephram said, as he motioned his hands at Amy and Madison.

Amy and Madison raised their eyebrows.

Ephram rolled his eyes.

"Would you prefer it...." Madison began.

"If we talked like this?" Amy finished.

Ephram cupped his ears. "Come on! Let's think seriously now." He walked over and picked Kelly from Madison's arms. He lovingly tickled the under side of Kelly's chin and Kelly giggled softly. "

Amy rung her fingers together, as a sly smile formed on her face. "What if we can get my Mom on our side? You know, something like....."

"Having her check in on us every day?" Madison filled in.

"That way there's adult supervison and we get our own life!" Ephram concluded.

"I know that if we present this, in an adult fashion to my Mother, she'll totally take our side! She's been on our side the whole time." Amy said, as she walked over to Ephram and Kelly. She smiled as she gazed at Kelly. "If we can get this to work, I think it'll be the best thing."

"You do realize that we're all gonna pay for months, right?" Madison asked.

Ephram and Amy exchanged looks, then turned their gaze back to Madison. "We wouldn't have it any other way."

Madison smiled.

Ephram held out his free hand in the center of the room. "All for one and one for all?"

Amy placed her hand over Ephram's hand.

Madison, following suit, placed her hand over Amy's hand.
