"Come in, Sheriff." Dylan was glad it was sheriff Romero, maybe he could help.

"Call me Alex." He told him as he entered the house. "Everything okay?" He asked noticing Dylan looking a bit stressed.

"No, actually it's not. Norman had ahold of mom, he wouldn't let her go so I hit him over the head with a frying pan. They are in the kitchen." Dylan told him quietly afraid of what Norma would do at this moment. They made their way to the kitchen to see Norma still kneeled down next to Norman.

Alex walked over to her and bent down beside her. He placed his hand on her back gently. "Are you okay? He hurt you, didn't he?" Alex asked her. Norma started to cry and let go of Norman's hand to grab Alex. She wrapped her arms around him and held onto him tight. "It's going to be okay, Norma. We're going to figure this out." Alex didn't want to let her go. He wanted to keep her in his arms and protect her, forever. He needed to get Norman out of this house and away from Norma. He had a bad feeling about him. He didn't quite know what has happened with Norman but he knew something was terribly wrong with him. Alex helped Norma up off the floor and helped her to a chair. "Sit down." He told her.

"I dont know what to do, I know he needs help. I'm just so scared, Alex." Norma knew something had to happen, even if she didn't like it.

"I can take him some place to get some help, if you tell me to." Alex told her.

Dylan had picked Norman up from the floor and laid him down on the couch. He came back and sat down next to Norma.

"Mom, Norman needs to go get help. He's not going to get any better here." Dylan spoke softly to her.

"Okay." Was all she could manage to say.

Alex stood up, "Help me get him in my truck?" He told Dylan. He wanted to get this done as fast as possible so Norma didn't change her mind. He knew how she was. He needed to get her safe. Alex put a hand to Norma's face rubbing her cheek , "I'll be back soon? Lock the doors when we leave." He told her and then leaned into give her a quick but sweet kiss on the lips. She kissed him back. "Yeah, " she said quickly.

Dylan helped Alex get Norman into the back seat and Dylan hopped in the front.

"Where are we going to take him?" Dylan asked.

"For now we are going to have bring him to the county psychiatric hospital. Until we find him a place to go, we have no choice. He is dangerous and he can't be in that house."

Dylan nodded in agreement.

All Alex could think about was getting back to Norma. He hated having to leave her. She shouldn't be alone. He needed to get Norman into this place and get back to her. He turned his police lights on and sped the entire way.

They were able to successfully get Norman admitted. Dylan and Alex started to head back to the motel.

Alex and Dylan pulled back up to the house and made their way up the stairs. Dylan unlocked the door and let them inside, locking it again behind them.

"Thanks for everything, Alex." Dylan felt better already now that Norman was going to be getting the help he needed.

"I just hope it will all be okay." Alex stated sounding a little unsure.

"I'm going to head up to bed." Dylan went upstairs to his room.

Alex said goodnight and walked to the living room where he saw Norma asleep on the couch. He sat down on the edge of the couch next to her and wiped her hair from her face and she jumped at his touch. "Alex, " she was happy to see him but her face full of worry. "Is everything okay? Is Norman okay? Is he safe?" She questioned.

"He's going to be okay and your going to be okay." He grabbed her hands in his.

"I'm glad your back. " She whispered and leaned into him resting her head onto his chest. He held her close against him and kissed her forehead. Norma picked her head up from his chest and looked into his eyes. Was this actually real? She felt like she could be dreaming. She never knew she could ever feel this way about a man. She wanted Alex more than anything. She loved being in his arms. He then leaned in to kiss her lips. She returned the kiss and placed her hand around the back of his neck. She couldn't pull him any closer. His kisses then traveled from her lips to her neck as he ran his hands down the middle of her back.

She ran her fingers down his chest to the bottom of his shirt and pulled it up over his head, throwing it to the floor. Everything felt so different for her with Alex. So much better than anybody she had ever been with.

Alex knew he wanted Norma for a long time. He couldn't believe this was actually happening. Little did he know she felt the same way.

She pulled away from their kisses to look at him, their faces still close "Alex," she started and touched his face softly. She didn't really know what she want to say exactly. She wanted to tell him thank you for everything he's done for her. She wanted to tell him how safe he made her feel. How glad she was he was there with her. How badly she wanted him right now, and all the time. How badly she needed him. No words came out though. She became lost staring into his eyes.

"I need you," he then told her in an almost whisper. Saving her, yet again but by her own exact thoughts. She wanted to hold him and never let go. She felt if she let go, he might disappear. She then stood up from the couch, grabbing his hand in hers. She led him up the stairs to her bedroom.
