Amy walked into her house re living every moment she spent with Ephram that
day. Her stomach was filled with an excited feeling. That feeling you get
when you finally figure out that you love someone. She hadn't felt like
that for a long time. Actually, she wasn't sure if she had ever truly felt
that kind of feeling.
"Amy, you're home," Harold said, interrupting Amy's thoughts. "What came over you, you look happy?"
"I just had the most amazing day," She said
"I'm glad you're happy," replied Harold. He wondered why Ephram hadn't made her happy sooner.
Amy hurried upstairs remembering the homework she needed to finish before tomorrow. She went to her room and sat down at her desk. Her math book was propped open on her desk since two days ago when she gave up on it. She got up to put some music on hoping it would help. Just as she started singing along to Avril Lavigne's "Complicated" when there was a knock on her door.
"Can I borrow your Linkin Park CD?" Bright asked, as he came in. He was wearing yellow pajama pants and his Sponge bob shirt.
"When did you learn to knock?" Amy said ignoring his question.
"Since you started to have boyfriends," Bright answered, "I don't want to walk in to something. I saw you out there kissing Brown."
"I wouldn't want you to walk in wearing that," Amy said laughing. "So now you're spying on me?"
"No, I'm looking out for you."
"Oh okay bodyguard, Amy said, So, what did you want?"
"Your Linkin Park CD"
"Oh here, Amy said handing it over. Don't lose it."
"Hey, did you see that kid steal my inner tube today," Bright asked?
"No, I didn't," Amy said. She was trying not to laugh and make it obvious that she had something to do with it. "Are you going to sit there or let me get back to my homework?"
"I'm leaving," he said.
Once Bright left, Amy sunk back into her chair and continued working through some math problems. It was getting late and all she wanted to do was go to bed. Her eyes were getting heavy and eventually she finished and went to bed.
~Next day at school~
"Hey Ephram," Amy said. Ephram was putting his book bag in his locker. Just as he looked over, Amy leaned in and gave him a strong kiss.
"I'm happy to see you too," Ephram said, catching his breath.
"Did you get your Algebra done," he asked?
"Yea barely," Amy replied, "I was up working on problem thirteen until late last night."
"I think teachers do that purposely," he said, "they don't want us to have a life or get sleep."
"Yea, it's a form of torture."
"Hey guys," Bright said.
"Hi Bright," they said in unison.
"Did you hear, the winter formal is in two weeks," Bright exclaimed.
"Since when do you get all excited over a formal," Ephram asked?
"Every guy gets excited for the formal," he said.
"I still don't get it," Ephram replied.
Amy leaned in giving Ephram the hint.
"So the whole point of the winter formal is to get laid, among other things" Ephram asked?
"Of course, and I have my eye on the head cheerleader. She is hot!"
"They have the dance and dinner at this ski resort near by," Amy explained, "It is a big deal."
"Why hadn't I heard about this," Ephram asked?
"They don't release the date until two weeks before, Amy said. "Plus, it is only for people who actually like dances."
"Or want to get laid," Bright added, walking away "There is more to it than getting laid, like the dance and dinner part of the evening," Amy said. "I have heard it is a blast." "We don't have to go if you don't want to," Amy added. "What, you think I just want to get laid," Ephram said laughing. "Ha, ha," Amy said. "Don't worry I won't stoop to his level," he said, "I like us too much." "Good." "So Amy Abbott would you go to the winter formal with me," Ephram asked? "I promise we can dance all night." He could sense how important it was for Amy to attend. "I would be delighted, Ephram Brown," she answered. She could already picture a perfect evening with Ephram.
Ephram leaned in and gave Amy a soft kiss. He felt like the luckiest guy to be with her. Ephram put his arm around her and they walked to class.
~that afternoon~
Delia and Madison were in the kitchen working on frosting a batch of cupcakes.
"Does this look alright," Delia asked?
"Looks fine, but I do think you have more frosting on your hands than on the cupcake." Madison said. Madison went over and got a damp rag out of the sink. She should have known frosting would be this messy.
"Did you get hurt yesterday by Amy," Delia asked?
"Only a bruise," Madison replied, "you need to know that what we did was wrong."
"I know, but it was fun to watch," she said.
"It was fun to watch," Ephram said walking into the room.
"You want a cupcake?" Madison said changing the subject. She was trying hard to be nice to him in front of Delia. She didn't need to set any farther bad examples.
"No thanks," Ephram replied, "got to look nice for the winter formal. Just kidding, I'll take one." Ephram grabbed a cupcake and proceeded to leave the kitchen.
"Ephram, can I talk to you," Madison asked? She had followed him out of the kitchen. "I guess, just as long as you don't slap me/"
"I'm sorry for fighting with your new girlfriend," she began, "I was just jealous of seeing you with another girl this soon." "Apology accepted," Ephram replied, "you're going to have to get used to Amy and I. You should move on too."
With that, Ephram left Madison at the bottom of the stairs and went to do some homework.
"Amy, you're home," Harold said, interrupting Amy's thoughts. "What came over you, you look happy?"
"I just had the most amazing day," She said
