Just as he was about to pull the trigger, flashing lights appeared. Ephram had phoned the cops when they pulled up to the car. The sound of the sirens sent a feeling of relief over the moment.
Tommy pointed the gun at himself, giving the policeman time to close in and handle the situation. They got Tommy to hand over the gun.
The police seized the firearm and got Georgia safely out of the car. They found out Tommy was intoxicated over the legal limit and seized some drugs out of his car.
After the policeman questioned the two they let Ephram and Bright leave.
"Thanks man for saving our asses." Bright exclaimed, as they got back into their car. "I was really afraid back there." "You afraid?" "Only when a person ahs a gun pointed at me," Bright replied. "No problem, I was afraid too. I just had this gut feeling about it."
"Let's not mention this to Amy," Bright responded, "we don't need to worry her, she has been through aenough already."
Ephram nodded in agreement and they drove the rest of the way home in silence relieved to be alive.
When they arrived home late, Bright dropped Ephram at his house. He walked inside and took his tux up to his room. There sitting on his bed was Amy.
"Amy, I didn't expect you to be here. We got stuck in traffic, so it took us twice as long to get home."
"That's weird; the traffic was really light when we left." "Anyway, I thought I would come and wait for you," she said, kissing him gently. I got this fabulous dress, which you are sure to like."
"I can't wait," Ephram said, kissing her again.
"So you said you saw Tommy at the mall, Ephram asked?"
"Since when do you care about Tommy?" "I just wondered."
"Yea, but I don't care about him anymore, Amy said, I have you." Amy slipped her arms around Ephram's waist holding him close. She could feel his tenseness, something was bothering him.
"You okay," Amy asked? "Yea, I'm fine," Ephram responded.
"Liar, I can tell when something is bothering you." "It isn't anything to worry about, it's over now." "Ephram, what are you talking about? You can tell me." Amy was worried that maybe he say Madison or something.
Deciding she would probably find out sooner or later Ephram explained,
"It wasn't traffic that kept us for so long. We stopped to help a stranded car. As it turned out, Tommy was in the car fighting with some girl and he had a gun. Luckily, I had called police thinking that they would be able to help the stranded people. " Ephram explained. The police showed up and took over. "There is no need to worry, we are all okay. It was just a scare."
"Oh my gosh!" Amy was shocked.
Amy stood up and pulled Ephram into a tight hug. Tears started to form in her eyes. "What if I would have lost you?"
"I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere" Ephram replied. He took Amy's hand in his. "Let's try to focus on something else." Amy was still clinging to Ephram, her tears leaving a wet spot on Ephram's shirt.
"Oh, I was just outside and couldn't help but notice the stars," Ephram said changing the subject. Knowing that they needed some time together, Ephram got up and went to his window, opening it. "Come here." Amy got up and grabbed his hand. Ephram helped her onto the roof. The roof was flat and perfect for star gazers.
"The view is really something," Amy exclaimed!
Ephram laid down a blanket to lie on. Taking Amy into his arms, the two snuggled into each other cherishing the togetherness. Knowing that she was in his arms, everything felt safe again.
