This is my first Bates Motel Fanfic! I'm very excited to write this story. It starts off somewhere in the middle of season 3, so it's what I want to see happen on the show. I tried to keep the characters in character so I hope you enjoy! Thank you!

Norman has gotten worse. That's one thing that Norma is for sure about. His black outs have become more frequent and more violet. There was a night, after dinner, Norma had brought up some silly comment about George and Norman lost it.

His eyes became black, his body began to tremble and his lips were in a thin line. Norma was terrified. She resisted him as he violently grabbed her wrists, probably leaving a bruise. She struggled trying to squirm from his grasp, but he was just too strong.

"Norman, stop!" She shrieked as he pushed her heavily against the refrigerator. Norma was terrified, her Norman, her calm and pure Norman was far gone.

"No one else Mother, there can never be anyone else." He muttered pressing her harder and harder. Norma's back dug into the handle, making her squirm in pain.

"Norman stop it!" She shrieked, loud enough to ring throughout the house.

Something snapped.

Something snapped in Norman's head. He threw Norma on the floor and backed against the nearest wall. He sank to the ground, his back leaning against the wall. Norma, who struggled to sit up, crawled near him. Her back screamed in pain as she moved. "Norman? Norman honey?" She asked, holding his face in between both her hands.

Norma recognized the change in her son's face. Gone was the harmful, malevolent Norman and pure and sweet Norman now inhabited her son's body. "Sweetheart?" Norma asked, tears filling her eyes.

"Mother?" Norman flinched, looking up at his mother. "Why are we on the floor?"

Norma shook that memory out of her mind as she finished getting dressed. She absent mindedly left her curtains open, thinking about Alex wanting her and looking up at the window. As she pulled her dress up her body, she saw Norman walk past her door.

"Norman!" She shouted, leaning her head to the side to see him.

"Mother?" He smiled as he walked in. He couldn't help but look at the deep, plunging neckline of Norma by the way she held it up. Norma saw him stare and didn't turn away.

"Honey, can you button me up in the back?" She asked turning her back.

Norman took a few strides forward and rested his hands on her bare back. She shivered as his fingers touched her warm, delicate skin. "What happened to your back?" He asked, genuinely concerned, as his finger brushed over the large bruise over her back

Norma's eyes opened wide. She forgot about the bruise. Horrible flashes of Norman pressing her against the fridge. "Oh, my back? I was moving that maid cart into one of the room's and I guess I-I pressed against the wall too hard." Norma said convincingly.

"It looks pretty bad." Norman began to button up the back of his mother's dress.

"It doesn't hurt, honey, I didn't even know it was there." Norma smiled as Norman finished buttoning the dress.

He turned her around and kissed her cheek. "Good, I'm still worried though."

"Oh Norman," She caressed his cheek, "I'm totally fine, don't worry." Norma kissed the corner of his mouth, painstakingly close to his mouth. "C'mon, let me make you some breakfast."

"Mm, that sounds delicious." Norman smiled as she took his hand and led him down the stairs.

As Norma and Norman ate their blueberry pancakes, Norma couldn't help but smile and watch her son. Ever since the incident in the woods, Norma would watch Norman even more.

The phone suddenly rang, breaking Norma's contact with Norman. "I'll get it." Norma smiled politely.

Norman picked up the phone and immediately heard the voice.

"Norma Bates?" The female voice asked.

"No, this isn't Norma. Would you like to speak to her?" Norman asked.

"Yes please." The voice huffed.

"May I ask who's calling?" Norman asked.

"Tell her it's Christine."

"Mother, Christine is on the phone. She would like to speak with you." Norman faced his mother.

"No, no tell her I'm sick of something. I don't really want to speak with her right now, honey" Norma replied, not wanting to get into the whole Christine and George thing with Norman.

"Christine? Yes, I'm sorry, my mom's not feeling very well." Norman explained.

"She feels fine, she's too much of a coward to face me. You know what? Tell that bitch she better watch her back. Everyone in town is ready to say goodbye to her little motel and her. She whored around with my brother and this is what she gets. Norma Bates is a mess and a disastrous train wreck. Tell her she better watch her back." The line ended.

"What'd she want?" Norma asked, before sipping her tea.

Norman tried to control his anger, not wanting to upset his mother. "Nothing, something about city council." Norman replied walking back to the table. He forced his voice to sound normal and it worked.

"Oh, that's over." Norma scoffed. "Never mind, that's not important now." She brushed the conversation away, not wanting for Norman to get jealous of George.

"How's your pancakes, honey?"

Norma watched as Norman walked onto the bus from the motel office. It was fall so Norman and Emma were back at school leaving Norma to be extra busy. She smiled as the bus moved away, thinking about the first time Norman walked onto the school bus.

"Mommy! Mommy, look the bus is coming!" Norman shrieked, tugging Norma's hand and jumping up and down, unable to contain his excitement.

Norma's nubile face broke into a beautiful smile as she watched how excited Norman was. "I see it honey!" She bent down, eye level with him.

A small bruise was left on Norma's porcelain face from her last encounter with Sam. Norman had kept asking about it, making Sam even more furious. Norma tried to ignore Sam and explained how it was just an accident and that mommy was fine.

"Oh it's here, mommy!" Norman giggled as the bus stopped in front of them.

"Norman, honey, have a good first say!" She kissed his cheek and then his forehead. "I love you so much sweetheart." She held his face in between her hands.

"I love you too mommy!"

Norma could almost hear Norman's youthful, squeaky voice squeal. She snapped out of her reverie as she remembered the basket of clean clothes that she brought down from the house. Alex's clothes were neatly folded and smelt of clean detergent.

With a run of her finger through her short, platinum blonde hair, Norma lifted the basket and opened the office door. It was relatively remote around the motel, only about one or two customer in the motel. Norma's pumps clicked as she walked to Alex's room. With the basket on her hip, Norma knocked on Alex's door.

It took a while for Alex to get to the door. Norma turned around and saw his SUV in the driveway so he was home. The door swung open and Norma smelled him before she saw him. Manliness and aftershave filled Norma's nostrils as she turned around.

There Alex stood, water dripping from his perfectly chiseled chest. He was brushing the water from his hair with a white towel as Norma stared at him. He only wore his black pants, the ones he wears with his sheriff uniform.

"Are those my clothes Norma?" Alex asked. It was getting a bit awkward for him as he noticed Norma staring at him.

"Oh uh, yes, sorry." She stuttered, holding the basket in her hands.

"Sorry, you caught me just as I was getting out of the shower." Alex explained, Norma staring intently at his body.

"Hm, don't apologize." Norma purred, meeting his eyes. She unconsciously licked her lips and her mouthwatering.

"Okay," He cleared his throat, knowing exactly what she was thinking. Alex had wanted Norma for quite some time but quickly brushed the thoughts from his mind. That day, when she cleaned Alex's cut was when he realized how much he wanted her. How much he craved for her to be in his embrace. For him to love and protect her. For Norma to be his. "Would you like to come in?" Alex asked, against his own will.

"Yes, yes." Norma exclaimed, a little too quick. She brushed past him and Alex sucked in his breath. He knew this was a bad idea. Getting involved with Norma was a bad idea.

"You can just lay that basket on the bed." Alex muttered, placing the towel on a chair. He watched as she graciously set the basket down.

"Your room is still clean." Norma grinned at him.

Alex's heart melted when he saw her smile. "Yeah, you did a good job the last time you were here."

"What can I say?" Norma smiled, her voice flirtatious. "I'm good at what I do."

Alex smiled inside, not wanting to show Norma how much control she had over him. "You are. Maybe I should keep it messy so you can visit more." Alex murmured.

Norma took a few steps closer to him. They were close, her hand rested on his bare chest. "You like me here?" She whispered, looking up into his warm brown eyes.

Alex knew she was dangerously close, but he didn't care at all. He basked in the warm touch of Norma's hands. He wrapped his arms around her waist, rubbing his thumbs on her lower back. "I do. You make it…fun." Damn it, Alex! Fun? Alex thought.

Norma giggled putting her face even closer to his. "I'm glad I make it fun." She murmured.

There was a moment before the kiss. Alex's eyes devoured hers, basking in the beauty of her. Alex leaned in first, being the one to initiate the kiss. His lips were so warm and hers feather soft. She opened his mouth with hers, wanting the kiss to deepen. Alex position his tongue in Norma's warm mouth, brushing against Norma's. She wrapped her arms around his neck, scratching the back of his head.

Alex's hands brushed lower around Norma's ass. She moaned into his mouth making Alex feel the vibration and he loved it. He pushed her against the wall, deepening the kiss and wanting more and more. His lips worked over hers over and over. She loved the warmth of his mouth and she loved the manly power he had over her.

Their faces were mashed together, incredibly close and both leaving each other breathless. The lack of oxygen was the only reason they parted. "Wow." Norma scoffed, pressing the back of his head to lean their fore heads together.

"You're so beautiful, Norma." He murmured, breathing in Norma.

A wide smile was painted upon her face. She dropped another kiss on his mouth quickly. "C'mon." She whispered, pulling him towards the bed.

With a small, playful push by Alex, Norma fell onto the bed with a giggle. Norma laid on the soft, motel sheets and Alex kneeled in front of her, giving her the perfect view of his chest.

She lifted herself up on her knees so they were both kneeling on the bed. Norma locked her arms around his neck and pressed her body against his. This time, she initiated the kiss. The kiss was long and deep and messy. His tongue danced around her bottom lip and she moaned. "Alex…" Norma moaned as they broke the kiss. He was dropping kisses on her neck, nipping and licking at her porcelain skin. His mouth danced around her pulse point, relishing the feel.

Norma lifted his head up, looking into his warm eyes. Suddenly, she turned around, her back in front of him and her ass rubbing against him. "Unbutton me, please." Norma said in a breathy moan.

Alex could barely focus with her ass rubbing against his pelvis. He quickly focused his attention unbuttoning Norma's pink dress. With every button, her satiny skin was revealed and he dropped kisses, not leaving any part unkissed. Norma moaned aloud and goose bumps flared all over her body. She could feel Alex's soft finger brush against her back with the last few buttons.

Once the buttons were all done, Norma quickly stripped the dress off. Alex's breath was caught in his throat when he took in the sight before him. Norma wore a matching black, lace bra and thong. The bra fit her perfectly enhancing her breasts even more. "Norma," Alex rubbed her back, kissing the back of her neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist, turning her around.

Norma faced him, her face a little apprehensive. She hadn't wanted anything so much in a while. This was different than her horrible experience with George. That had been rushed and impulsive and a mistake. Norma didn't want to mess this up at all. "Norma, you look beautiful." Alex murmured with a twinkle in his eye and a smile graced upon his face.

Norma blushed loving the attention he gave her. "Thank you." She muttered before crashing her lips on his once again. Alex's hands caressed her cheeks, her jaw then her platinum blonde hair. The moans and the suckling sounds of their lips were audible in the motel room. Norma's lips fell from his lips, kissing his cheek, his jaw then his chin. Once she got to his neck, her tongue and lips caressed his neck. Alex moaned, his eyes fluttering open and closed.

He twined his fingers in her hair, guiding her head as she kissed all over his neck. Alex had to keep his balance as Norma's mouth went further south. Norma's lips and tongues danced across Alex's chest and she smirked inwardly as she head and felt his moans of appreciation. Her hands rubbed up and down his chiseled chest, loving the feel of his skin.

"Norma," Alex moaned. His head rolled back and his fingers intertwined in her hair again. He had never felt so powerless with a woman and Norma knew it. She knew she had control right now.

Alex sighed as she unbuckled his belt, painstakingly slowly. "Mm, Sheriff." Norma moaned as she unzipped his zipper. Alex sucked in a sharp intake of breath as her warm hand grasped his thick cock.

"Norma, yes…" Alex moaned once again, unable to contain the sounds. Norma was bent on all fours as she rubbed both her hands up and down his thick shaft. Norma had never seen or felt someone this big before.

"Alex, baby, you're so big." Norma moaned as she picked up the pace of her hands. She watched through her eyelashes as she touched her tongue to his cock. His eyes were closed, his mouth in a thin line with his tongue out, concentrating on the feel. Her mouth covered teeth were filled with all of him and he tasted amazing.

"Yes, Norma, oh." Alex moaned, loving everything that was happening.

Norma let out a loud giggle as her hands played with Alex's fingers. Her head rested on Alex's chest, their legs entwined, and his arm wrapped protectively around her bare waist, his thumbs rubbing her back. They were talking about random, pointless things with a playful banter.

Norma had never felt this happy before. Alex had been dominating in bed yet gentle and Norma loved it. She loved how he wanted her to feel good before he did. He had been controlling but in the best way possible. Alex had made her feel like she was safe.

"This shouldn't be the last time this happens." Norma murmured as her chin rested on his chest, looking into his eyes.

"Yeah, this needs to happen again." Alex smiled and Norma's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't help but grin widely when she saw his face.

"I feel so…protected when I'm with you." She said, dropping a kiss on the corner of his mouth. It was true; she felt invincible to the world when she was around Alex.

"You should, I will always protect you Norma." Alex answered honestly. Norma smiled, kissing his lips quickly. She rested her head on his chest and listened to the thump thump thump of his heart. Alex left a long kiss on the top of her head, inhaling the smell of her apple scented hair. They laid in a comfortable silence just enjoying each other's company.

"Thank you, Alex." Norma said, propping her head up, rubbing his cheek.

"For what? For what just happened?" Alex chuckled, playing with her hair, unable to keep his hands off her.

"Well, yes," Norma giggled, warming his heart. "But thank you for everything. Everything with Keith Summers and," Norma's breath caught in her throat, "And Z-Zack and finding Norman. Just everything."

"Norma, you don't have to thank me. You didn't deserve any of that. You didn't deserve what happened with Keith and Shelby." Alex replied truthfully. He held her tighter knowing the thoughts of what happened with those men ran through her mind.

"I just-every time I walk into the kitchen in the middle of the night, I can't help but think about Keith." She shivered thinking about that retched man. But Alex's arms were tightly wrapped around her and those thought vanished.

"You shouldn't have to be alone. You should never be alone." He declared, pressing his lips to her fore head.

Norma's heart soared at the thought of not being alone. She longed for a man to protect her and Norman. "Alex…" Norma whispered, kissing his lips.

"You shouldn't have to feel pain, Norma. You've been through so much and I want to help you. I want to protect you, I want you to be mine and I want to be yours." Alex explained, his heart beating at this revelation. He was scared of how Norma would respond.

"I want to be yours…" Norma whispered as she raised herself up on her arms. She looked at him for a while, thinking how she could have such feelings for a man in such a quick time. Norma had always had a feeling for Alex, but never admitted it to herself. She initiated a long, drugging, consuming kiss. Neither of them wanted to stop kissing each other, let alone touch each other. Alex positioned himself so he was leaning against the head board.

If it weren't for Alex's damn phone ringing, Norma and Alex would never have left that motel room. "Damn it." Alex muttered, dropping his fore head down on hers. He reached over and lifted his phone from the night stand.

"Sheriff, we've got a homicide on the corner of Del Rio and Foray. We need you at the scene immediately."

Alex shut his phone off with a huff and laid it back on the night stand. "What? Do you have to go?" Norma's sweet voice filled his ears. She looked up at him with wide eyes like she was a little girl in a candy store.

"Yeah, I'm sorry." Alex answered in a gruff voice, obviously annoyed with his departure.

Norma wrapped her arms around his neck once more and kissed him on the lips. It was a goodbye kiss, it was quick, but passionate. She smiled before getting up off his lap, already missing the warmth of his skin. "Big daddy of White Pine Bay need to go investigate?" Norma teased, getting herself dressed.

Alex took a moment to appreciate Norma's beautiful body before getting up himself. "I guess so, big daddy?" He scoffed.

"Yeah, you're like the ruler or the king of this town." Norma shrugged. "People respect you."

"Apparently not everyone." Alex added, zipping up his pants. "Whoever burnt down my house probably doesn't respect me."

"Oh that's true." Norma sighed lamely. "How is your house coming along?" She asked, hoping it wasn't coming along at all. Norma couldn't imagine not having him only a few yards away from her.

"Not very good, why?" He looked up at her. She was struggling to button up the back of her dress. Alex took a few strides over to her and began buttoning it up. "Want to get rid of me that soon?" He smirked.

"Of course not." Norma answered truthfully, distracted by his fingers on her bare back. There was something about this man that made her lose every control in her body. "You're welcome here for however long it is."

Alex kissed the back of her neck before finishing the buttons. "Good, glad to know." He turned her around, resting his hands on her hips.

"You probably need to go, huh?" Norma bit her lip, their eyes devouring each other.

Alex took a deep breath, leaving Norma was the last thing he wanted to do right now. "Yeah, I guess so." He leaned his fore head against hers.

Norma rubbed her nose against his, a cute gesture before leaving. She kissed his lips one last time, this time drawing it out as long as possible. Her lips were latched with his, biting his bottom lip. Norma pulled away quickly. "Goodbye Alex." She smiled before opening the door.

"Goodbye Norma." He smiled, the foreign feel of his lips made Alex feel strange with a grin.

. As he hopped in his SUV, he watched her open the motel office door and get safely in. There was something about Norma that drew him in. He began to think about this beautiful, controlling, sweet and generous woman while driving. There was no doubt in his mind that she drove him absolutely nuts. She was so damn stubborn but so was he. Norma had a generous quality to herself also, he thought. She always put Norman first and that could either mean two things. It could mean that Norma was such a devoted mother or she could never let another man in her life because of her devotion to her Norman.

Alex tried to focus as he drove. He tried to focus on the easier side of things. He thought about how soft and warm her skin was. He smiled at the memory of the sounds she made during their love making. He remembered how silky her hair was as he ran it through his fingers.

As Alex arrived at the scene, a sense of normality washed over him. It felt so different with Norma and he felt different. But this, this was something Alex knew. The wail of the sirens filled his ears. He began to walk and addressed Deputy Lin.

"What happened here?" He asked as they began walking towards the house.

"Christine Heldens was shot and killed, sir."
