"Mother, how could you? How could you do this to me?" Norman was yelling into his mother's face. He was walking closer and closer to her. Staring at her with his evil angry eyes. "Your not going to get away with this!" He was almost face to face with her now. He reached out and grabbed her, pulling her up against the front of his body. "I thought you loved me mother," he started to cry.

"It's for your own good Norman, you have to understand. I do love you, but your not well. You can get better if you just listen to me." She reached out touching her son's face.

"No. You don't love me, mother. You got rid of me. Like I was a piece of trash!" He yelled, his fingers digging into her arms tighter. Norma tried to get out of his grasp and started to kick him in the legs. He then let her go and turned around starting to walk away. She watched him confused. She ran after him, grabbing him by the arm to turn him back around to face her. He swung around quickly with a knife in his hand, holding it up to her.

"Norman! What are you doing?" She started to back away from him.

"I'm just going to take care of you, like you took care of your son, Norman!" He yelled and forced the knife into her chest.

"Norman, please! No. Stop!" Norma cried.

Alex woke up to her screaming. He saw her swinging her hands in the air with tears running down her face. He reached over and grabbed her and tried to hold her arms still. "Norma, you're having a nightmare baby, wake up." He shook her softly. She opened her eyes to find Alex there. It was a dream. She wrapped her arms around him. "Shh...it's okay, you're okay." He told her holding her in his arms.

"He said he was going to take care of me, like I took care of him ...and...He killed me, Alex." She told him sobbing into his chest. He could feel the wetness from her tears.

"It was just a dream. I'm not going to let anything happen to you."

"He told me I didn't love him." She told him painfully.

"It wasn't real." He reassured her. Norma fell back asleep in his arms gripping onto him tightly.

Norma had woken up before Alex that next morning. She looked at him sleeping peacefully. She slowly moved the covers off of herself trying not to wake him and got out of bed.

"Good morning." She heard from behind her.

"Morning," she turned around and smiled at him. "I was just going to jump in the shower," she walked back over to him, leaning down to kiss him.

"I should get down to the station early, there's some paperwork that's been piling up." He told her.

"Okay." She held onto his hands.

"Are you gonna be okay?" He asked. He hated having to leave her. He knew she was worried about Norman and everything that's been going on.

"Yeah, yeah...I have to get down to the office. And later I have to run to the grocery store. I want to try and find some place for Norman, so I have some things to do!" She told him trying to sound happy.

"Alright. Call me if you need me." Alex got up and started to get dressed for work.

Later on down at the motel Norma was sitting behind the desk looking up some places for Norman. She found a really nice place she wanted to look into...although she knew it was going to be expensive. She wasn't really sure how any of this was going to happen. She hasn't had much business at the motel lately since the new bypass. Oh well, she would worry about that later. She sighed and looked over at the clock. It was almost 11:30. She closed the laptop shut, grabbed her keys and headed out the door. The sky was full of dark clouds making their way closer. She hoped she would make it to the store to get her groceries before the storm came.

Alex was on his way home from work. By this time it had been pouring rain. He figured he would stop by his house to shower and get dressed before he headed back to Norma's. He pulled into his driveway to see a familiar car sitting in front of his house. With everything that had happened the past few days he had forgotten about a certain someone...
