Author's Note: Alright, I'm gonna start writing something I don't want to write, right here. I am super busy and don't know when I am gonna have a chance to update after this chapter. I just recently started college at St. Olaf College and well, class is gonna take up a lot of my time. I know that I have readers out there who really want to finish this story, and enjoy reading, but "real" life needs to take first priority at this point. I'm sorry, I meant to finish it before I left, but it didn't happen. So, enjoy this and don't hold out for too many more as who knows when I'll get another chance. Love you all for reading. :) And hey, you have the real deal coming up soon enough on the WB so, take care.

"Amy is up in her room." Bright pointed, throwing his keys down on the entryway table.

"Well, here goes nothing." He inhaled deeply.
------
Amy stirred, realizing she'd fallen asleep again. She'd been pretty tired lately, and she wasn't sure why. She got up and stretched a moment, coming back to consciousness, realizing that a knock on her door had awoken her. She padded over to the door and swung it open.

"Amy," he uttered, almost whispering her name with sweetness in his voice that she'd never heard him use before. Almost a longing.

"Ephram," she murmured back, truthfully a little stunned that he was actually back, standing right there in front of her. "Wow, you're actually back."

He nodded. Without thinking about it, her body just kind of moved her and she wrapped her arms around him, burying her head in his shoulder. He reciprocated the embrace.

"Hannah-Banana, did you stop loving me?" Bright leaned on the door frame as soon as she opened the door.

"Hi Bright," she replied. "Why would you say that?"

"Because it's been days since I've seen you."

"I'm sorry Bright; I've just been really busy lately with school and work and everything. I'm gonna make more time though." She smiled. "Oh, come in." She opened the door widely.

"So, you're not too busy right now?"

"Not currently, nope."

"Excellent because it's been too long." He smiled, immediately kissing her.

"Bright, as much as I love to kiss you, can we do something else, like talk?"

"Sure, what do you wanna talk about?" He replied after a sigh, and a few more wanton kisses.

"I don't know. Anything."

"Okay," he looked around.

"Hey, are you hungry? It's kinda late. Nina's not home. We could cook something?"

"Just like old times?"

"Mmhm," she exclaimed with a grin.

"Let's get crackin'!" He replied as he clapped his hands together loudly.
------
She inhaled deeply as they stood there, interlocked. Her eyes closed and she welcomed the contact. This was safe for her.

"I love you, Amy. I wish we could just start over, wish none of last year's problem had happened. I missed you." He whispered into her neck. "I know things are weird, or different now. I can try and understand if you never want to be involved with me again."

"Ephram, I, this is dumb to say, but when I saw you all the anger and confusion I felt towards you, was just gone. It's so good that you are back. I love you too. I always will." She whispered in reply.

"So, where does this put us?"

"I want to start over." She replied.

He lifted his head from her shoulder and his cheek brushed hers gently on the way up. He moved till their eyes were meeting and their foreheads touching. He smiled, closed his eyes and his lips quivered a moment above hers. Their lips danced across each other passionately. He stepped back and she opened her eyes slowly.

In a noticeable shift in character, she looked at him and kind of grinned.

"Hi, I'm Amy. I think I've seen you around town before." She stuck out her hand.

"Yeah, I suppose you have. You know, Everwood is pretty small."

"It is. I should tell you know I have a good feeling about us."

"Us?"

"Oh yeah, us. We have this chemistry. I can feel these things," she smiled. He played along.

"Would it be forward to ask you if you'd go out with me tonight?" He asked taking her hand.

"No, I think it would be entirely appropriate."

"In that case, do you want to go out tonight?"

"Love to!" She beamed and squeezed his hand tightly.

Neither of them had ever been happier and both had a brighter outlook than ever for the future of their relationship together.

She looked down to see her feet walking down an aisle. She looked up and saw Bright at the end of that aisle. Her hands touched the soft white material that she was wearing and she smiled realizing where she was and the moments flew by so quickly that she was up front at the end of the ceremony.

"I do." She heard Bright exclaim.

"I do." She heard her own voice repeat.

"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride," the preacher finished.

The next thing she knew he had turned to her, hands lifting her veil and placing that first "real" kiss on her lips. This was the most amazing moment of her life. She was filled with an overwhelming sense of pride and joy.

Hannah squinched her face and opened her eyes. She sat up and realized it was all a dream. At least for now.

Author's Note: Short, I know. I'm sorry. I needed to end it somehow. I hope you liked it. Hopefully I'll be around writing something else sometime. Thanks everyone. :)
