Disclaimer: I don't own Everwood, I just own this little story and all the things I made up. (I really wish I own Greg's number though! Hihihi!)
A/N: first I would like to thank everyone who reviewed; I can't tell you how much it means to me. Thanks!
Here's chapter four, hope you like it…
Chapter four: See you!
The next morning, Amy woke up with the scent of coffee all around her. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at the watcher on her nightstand; it was 9:00 A.M. She smiled at herself when she remembered the previous night. Ephram and she remained awake until four in the morning, talking.
She quickly stood up, despite the lack of sleep she felt pretty good. She took off the t-shirt that Ephram had lent her and put her own clothes on. Then she went to the guest room bathroom. When she arrived at the kitchen she was greeted by Ephram, Ella, Alberto and Francesco.
"Good morning… to all of you" she said smiling.
"Boun giorno!" they all replied at the same time.
"Did you sleep well?" Ephram asked. Alberto loudly cleared his throat when he heard the question and Francesca threw him an angry look. Ephram and Amy decided to ignore them.
"Yeah!" she answered smiling. She seated next to Francesca on the last stool available; the two women smiled at each other.
"Here." Ephram said giving her a cup of coffee.
"Thanks." She said taking it. She took a long sup and then she looked at him. He remembered to put extra vanilla in her coffee. He was leaning over Ella, giving her kisses on her cheeks. Amy smiled at the picture she had in front of her and turned to look at Francesca who was giving her a meaningful look. Amy ignored her and looked down at her coffee, smiling. Ephram came to seat next to Alberto, across Amy.
"Oh I almost forgot, Hannah called half an hour ago." He said. Amy widened her eyes in disbelief.
"How did she…"
"She found my number in the yellow pages." Ephram said interrupting her. She laughed.
"What did she say?"
"She just wanted to remind you that you were leaving tomorrow and that you have yet to find Meg's present."
"Well I guess I should get going then." She reluctantly said. He looked down at his cup.
"Are you coming back?" Ella asked. Ephram and Amy glanced at each other.
"Well sweetheart. I probably will." She answered smiling. "But you have to promise me something first." She said standing up to come closer to the little girl. Amy leaned over her and whispered something in her ears. Ella laughed and nodded, and then Amy leaned and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek while the little girl threw her tiny arms around her neck.
"Au revoir Amy." She said smiling and Amy laughed.
"Well, this is a smart little girl you have here." She said looking at Ephram.
"Paul taught her all the ways to say goodbye." He said smiling. "Give me five minute to change and we can go." He said heading to his room; she nodded.
Five minutes later Ephram came back; dressed and ready to go. Ella came running to him and he grabbed her in his arms.
"Ok piccolina, you stay with uncle Alberto and aunt Fran while I give Amy a ride to her hotel! I'll be back soon." He said giving her kiss on the forehead. "Be good, ok?" she nodded. Alberto and Fran stood up to say goodbye to Amy.
"It was really nice to meet you." Fran said hugging her quickly.
"Yeah, after all we heard…" Alberto was interrupted by the killing look his wife was giving him. "Hum…uh Have a nice flight, Amy." He said shaking her hand.
"Thanks. It was nice to meet you too." she said smiling and then she turned to Ella who was still in her father's arms.
"See you soon?" she asked. The little girl nodded and leaned to give her a kiss. "Bye Ella." Amy said smiling.
"Goodbye, Amy." Ephram gave Ella to Fran and he and Amy left.
The ride to the hotel was quiet but not awkward at all. When they arrived they both get out and stood in front of the hotel doors. They looked at each other smiling sadly, neither of them wanting the other to leave.
"It was really nice." She finally said breaking the sad silence.
"Yes it was… I've really missed you."
"And I've missed you too. I hope we won't let ten years pass before seeing each other again." she said looking in his blue eyes.
"I'll certainly come to visit when Bright and Hannah's child will be born." She nodded and the silence fell between them again. They looked at each other and came closer to hug.
"Take care." Amy whispered in his ears.
"You too." he said and gave her quick kiss on the cheek. They pulled apart and Amy dried the tear that was falling on her cheek, the one he had kissed.
"See you Ephram." She said smiling and heading to the doors.
"See ya… wait" he said remembering. He looked trough his jeans pocket and went out a peace of paper which he gave her. "My number." He said smiling and she smiled back. She waved one last time and entered the hotel.
Later that day, Ephram was reading a book on his couch while Ella was playing with her doll, seating on the floor. He looked up when he remembered something.
"Ella?"
"Yes Papa" the little girl said looking at her dad.
"What did Amy whispered to you this morning?" The little girl smiled maliciously.
"She told me that I was pretty too and that she wants me to bring you to Everwood soon." He smiled.
"What is Everwood Papa?"
A/N: I know it's short but I like it like that. Plus chapter 3 was very long.
Wow two chapters in one night…big up for me! Lol!
