The next afternoon found Reba and Narvel making out like a couple of teenagers on the couch in the living room of the tour bus since the band was out for the day, off at some bar, enjoying themselves. Reba was currently shirtless, Narvel down to his underpants. Lying on top of her, he dipped his head, burying it in her cleavage. She looked up in ecstasy, and screamed..."TOMMY? Without realizing what he had walked in on, Reba's band member had come into the room. Startled, Reba reached for her shirt, covering herself as Narvel protectively blocked her from the other man's view. "Tommy, what the hell are you doing here? You are supposed to be at the bar with the others!" "I...I..." he stuttered, covering his eyes, "I got sick, wasn't feeling well. I came back to lie down!" Still shielding his eyes, he practically pleaded to a frustrated Narvel to be allowed to go back to his room. He then turned and fled. Narvel grabbed Reba's hand, leading her to her room, a serious look upon his face.
Thoroughly embarrassed, Reba looked up at him, saying "Well, that was awkward..." He looked at her, a tear running down his cheek. "Baby? What's wrong? Come here", she called, snuggling against his warm body and holding him tight. "I'm okay, really. He looked away as soon as he realized, and I don't even think he saw much of me, you took care of that!" "It's not that..." he started shakily. When you called "Tommy", for a second there, I thought I had lost you." "Lost me? Reba shook her head, confused. "Narvel what are you talking about? That doesn't make any sense." Sighing, he answered. "Reba, you called someone else's name while in bed with me. I thought you were calling out to him. Now I know how Lisa felt..." "Lisa? What does your ex-wife have to do with this?" Looking away, he replied. "Reba, when Lisa and I were still married, I did that to her. It was at the end of our marriage. I called out someone else's name." "Oh, Narvel..." she cooed, gently rubbing his back, urging him to continue. "Why did you do it? Whose name did you say?" Holding her gaze, he let out one word..."Yours", earning him a shocked expression from the open mouthed redhead before him. She managed to squeak out a stunned "Mine?" "Reba", he continued, "I felt terrible, but it was a realization for me. I couldn't stop thinking about you, and whether I could have you or not, I was in love with you. That proved it. I was in a loveless marriage, and needed out. I made the decision that night to divorce her. I never regretted it." Reba looked up at him, finally understanding. "Narvel, listen to me now. You will never lose me, I promise you that... I love you. Now, how about we pick up where we left off before we were so rudely interrupted?" Wiping away the last of his tears, and smiling, he replied, "Reba, I'd like nothing more. Nothing at all"...
