A: Abandon

Everybody had turned their back on Marty when she had her breakdown and kidnapped Baby Liam...everyone except for Nora.

Nora refused to abandon Marty even when Bo had given her an ultimatum. He had told her that she needed to choose between their marriage and her friendship with Marty. She told Bo to go to hell, because she would not desert her friend when she needed her most.

Nora knew all to well the pain and devastation that a miscarriage could cause and she refused to kick Marty when she was already down. When Bo had kicked her out she moved in with Marty.

XOXOXO

B: Boxes

Nora thought that she would get an early start. She was in the middle of unpacking her boxes when she heard crying coming from one of the bedrooms.

She opened the door and found Marty in what would have been the baby's room. The crib was still up and the walls were still decorated. Marty was clutching a tiny outfit in her hands while she sat in the rocking chair.

"Marty, what are you doing in here?" Nora asked.

"I had a dream about my little boy. He was crying and I couldn't find him. I just...I just wanted to feel close to him. I was so close to having everything. I only had a week left of my pregnancy when I was pushed down those stairs and I lost him. Why did I lose him Nora? Why did John leave me for Natalie when I needed him most? I just...I just want this pain to go away," Marty stated as new tears ran down her cheeks.

"I'm so sorry that you lost your baby, but I'm here for you and I'm going to help you with this pain. The first thing that we need to do is pack up this room so you can say goodbye to your son."

"I know that I need to say goodbye...but I can't bring myself to take down his things."

"It's okay Marty, I can pack up his room," Nora said as she began to place his things into her empty boxes.

"Thanks Nora for being here with me," Marty stated as she gave her best friend a hug.

XOXOXO

C: Closure

Once Nora and Marty had finished packing up her baby's things they went to the cemetery so that Marty could visit her son. Since she was so far along she couldn't have a normal D&C and had to give birth to him. There had been complications during the birth and she had to have her uterus removed. When she woke up from the surgery she found out that John had buried their son without her so she never had a chance to get closure.

She never had a chance to say goodbye. He was just gone. She stood at his grave as Nora held her hand. "Do you want me to give you some time alone with your son?" Nora asked.

"No, I need you here with me," Marty stated.

She knelt down at his grave. "Goodbye, my precious baby boy. I'm always going to love you and I hope that the angels are taking good care of you in heaven until I can see you again. I love you," Marty stated as she cried.

Nora helped her stand back up and then they left for home.

Once Nora had dropped Marty off at home she drove to Bo's house to grab the last of her things and drop off her keys.

When she got there she used her key and let herself in. She heard groaning noises from the bedroom. The door was cracked just enough that she could see Bo and Lindsey having sex.

Nora felt sick and angry. He certainly didn't take very long to move on with his life and with Lindsey of all people. She thought about confronting them but what would be the point. She wouldn't give Bo the satisfaction of knowing that he still had the power to hurt her. She slipped out just as quietly as she had entered.

XOXOXO

D: Drinks

Nora went home and found Marty drinking from the vodka bottle. She knew that drinking was the last thing that Marty needed, but she couldn't lecture her...not when she wanted to crawl into the bottle just as badly as her friend.

She took the Vodka bottle out of Marty's hands and began to pour the soothing poison down her throat.

"What's wrong?" Marty slurred.

"It's Bo...I thought that he loved me...I thought that we would be forever, but he never loved me...he couldn't have."

"What did Bo do?"

"He had sex with Lindsay," Nora said as she took another drink.

"I'm sorry Nora...this is all my fault. If you hadn't moved in with me then you could have still been happy with Bo."

"Don't blame yourself Marty. Bo and I had plenty of problems that had nothing to do with you. Bo is such an egotistical jackass who always has to be right, even when he's wrong. He was wrong to give me an ultimatum when he knew that I would choose you and it's obvious now that he never cared about me when he's sexing up my greatest enemy. Why couldn't he love me enough to stand by me."

"I don't know, but I love you Nora," Marty said as she pulled her into a hug. She pulled away and looked into Nora's beautiful eyes and she wanted to take the pain away from her friend, from herself and before she knew it she had pulled Nora into a passionate kiss.

XOXOXO

Nora had been surprised by the aching, burning need that kissing Marty had inspired in her. She needed to be touched and to feel loved and she could feel that Marty needed the same things by the passion and urgency in her kiss.

Nora's hands caressed Marty's body as she lifted her shirt up over her head. "I need your touch so much," Marty pleaded as she laid down on the living room table.

Nora removed her skirt and panties and poured vodka over Marty's bare skin. She licked and sucked the vodka off as her friend's moans of pleasure encouraged her to explore her body further.

She could tell that Marty was so close to cumming and she wanted a taste so she inserted her tongue into Marty's Vagina and flicked her clit until her juices ran down her throat. The mixture of Vodka and Marty's cum left a wonderfully unexpected taste in Nora's mouth.

"Let me take care of you now," Marty stated as she unbuttoned Nora's blouse. She unbuttoned her pants and pulled them down. Nora grew wet at the growing anticipation as Marty sunk her teeth into her panties and pulled them down.

"I need you so much," Nora stated in between ruptured breaths.

"Is this what you need?" Marty asked as she pushed her finger into Nora's wet center and flicked her clit over and over again.

"Fuck yes," Nora stated as she writhed in the pleasure that Marty's exploring finger was giving her. Marty thrusted her fingers into Nora over and over again, rougher and harder until Nora squirted her juices all over her.

"That was fucking amazing," Nora stated as she laid in Marty's arms.

"Yeah it was...I don't want to be alone tonight. Do you want to sleep with me in my bed?" Marty asked.

"I wouldn't have it any other way," Nora stated as she grabbed her friend's hand and followed her into the bedroom.
