Norma opened up her eyes to find herself snuggled into Alex and his arms wrapped around her. She stared at him sleeping and thought about what had happened last night, how Alex gave her that beautiful ring and how they had made love. For a second she had thought she had been dreaming. Being with Alex was like dreaming. She had never felt so safe in her entire life. She was just scared that it could all disappear before her eyes. She needed to stop thinking this way, she told herself. She erased the thoughts out of her mind. No more negative thoughts. She ran her fingers along his lips and then slowly touched his lips with hers. He kissed her back even being half asleep. She hoped he would wake up for her. She wanted him bad. He opened his eyes and smiled at her.
"Good morning." he pulled her closer to him.
She started rubbing her hands over his chest. "Morning." She then started to place light kisses over his chest and up his neck and then met his lips again. He grabbed onto the back of her head to kiss her more deeply. She moaned a little and her hands moved over his body. He then grabbed her gently turning her onto her back, and getting on top of her. He pulled away from her mouth and started to kiss her neck, his hand resting on the side of her face so he could feel her. Her skin was so soft he loved touching her. She ran her fingers through his hair and moved his head back up to be face to face with her. She wanted to taste his lips on hers again. She slammed her lips onto his and parted her legs a little. He rubbed himself on her while returning some passionate kisses to her mouth.
She pulled away from his lips in attempt to say something. "Alex," he reached his one hand down her body and felt her wetness. He was so close it was driving her crazy and he knew it. "I need you now." Her voice sounding weak in his ear. With that being said he wasn't going to make her wait any longer. He pushed himself inside her slowly while holding one hand onto her face. She let out some small moans and held onto him tightly.
Later on that morning, Norma got up and ready and headed home. Alex had already left for work. She had to get back to the motel. She was at the front desk looking at the computer when the door opened. She looked up to see Alex coming in.
"Hi, good morning, again." Alex greeted her smiling. She walked around from behind the counter.
"Good morning." She told him with a big smile on her face. "I thought you went to work already."
"I did actually go there. Then I decided to leave to come and make sure you got home okay." He told her smiling. "But I am a little late. We need to talk later though, about getting married. How do you want to do this?"
She didn't really answer his question. "Yes I know. Do you want to meet for lunch? Text me when your ready, I can make us something..."
"Okay sounds good but you don't have to make anything, we can grab something out." He told her and smiled.
"Okay. See you later." She said and gave him a quick kiss on the lips and went back around the front desk to her computer.
Norma had been doing some laundry back up at the house. She was folding clothes and pulled out one of Norman's shirts. She brought the shirt up to her chest hugging it for a moment. She felt like she had abandoned her son. But she knows it is for his own good. Maybe she should go see him? She wanted to see him but maybe it wasn't such a good idea until he gets into Pine View. "He is going to hate me." She says to herself and folds the shirt and sets it down to his pile. She decided to vacume the floors while she waited to hear from Alex. She felt someone place a hand on her shoulder and she immediately jumped.
"Dylan! You scared me!" She yelled to him and shut the vacume off.
"I'm sorry. How are you doing?" He smiled.
She took a deep breath. "I'm okay...do you want something to eat? I can make you lunch." She offered.
"No, I actually just ate, but thank you. I just wanted to see how you were doing. I'm going to be staying at the cabin for a few days. How are things going with Romero?" He asked.
She smiled looking away from him. "Things are good. We are actually, uh, going to he getting married."
"What? Seriously?" He was shocked.
"Well, yeah. I'm trying to get Norman into this really nice place, called Pine View, and I don't have any insurance for him. So Alex offered to marry me, so he can put Norman on his. I said yes." She told him like it was nothing.
"So that's the only reason your getting married?"
"Well no, not exactly." She couldn't lie to him. She laughed a little. She heard her phone begin to beep. She walked over to grab it from the table in the living room.
"I'm going to be meeting Alex for lunch. Would you like to join us?"
He watched her for a moment smiling. She looked genuinely happy. He's never seen her like this before. Something was definitely different.
"No, it's fine. You go have a nice lunch with Romero. I'll talk to you later." He walked to her and gave her a hug. She kissed him on the cheek.
She looked at her phone to see she had a message from Alex. "Are you ready to meet for lunch? Is the diner in town okay?" It read. She replied with a "yes." and went to change her clothes quickly before heading out.
Norma parked her car into the diner parking lot next to the sheriff's SUV. He looked over and saw her pull up. She got out of her car and made her way over to him.
"Hi." She smiled shyly at him. He closed the door to the truck. "Hey. How are you doing?" He asked and smirked at her.
"Good. I was just doing laundry and cleaning. So now I'm hungry." He grabbed her hand in his and they made their way in to the diner.
They were seated at a booth in the back.
"Dylan stopped by to see me. He's going to be staying at the cabin for a few days, he said."
"That's good. How's he doing?"
"Good. I told him we're getting married." She told him with a smile.
"How'd he take it?" Alex asked sounding concerned.
"He was fine! He seemed happy actually."
The waitress had come over to take their order.
"So, I was thinking tomorrow. We can go to City Hall tomorrow morning. At 9." He asked her, hoping she wasn't going to get mad at his plans. He had just assumed that's the way they were going to do this.
"Sure." She said instantly. She didn't sound nervous at all. He was expecting her to have a change of plans of some sort. Or for her to be mad at him that he didn't discuss the plans with her first. She always surprised him, he never knew how she was going to react with anything. You never knew with Norma.
"Okay." He gave her a smile. "You sure that's okay? We can do whatever you want. It's up to you. I was just thinking that would be the quickest way..." He started to explain.
"Alex, it's fine really. I don't want anything more anyway. Just as long as we will be married." She gave him a half smile.
"So you're going to be all by yourself at home, huh?" He smirked.
"Yeah, about that...I was actually going to ask you if you wanted to stay with me...since well, I guess you'll be moving in anyway, but...while Dylan is away...you know." She babbled on...
He laughed at her rambling. "Do you want me to?"
The waitress then made her way to their table and set their food down.
"Thank you." They both told her.
Alex looked back up to Norma waiting for her answer.
She let out a nervous laugh. "I do." She started laughing again at her choice of words.
He laughed with her and then they started eating their lunch.
They were now standing in between their cars getting ready to leave. Norma was leaning up against Alex's door. "I guess I'll see you later." She sounded a little sad. He leaned in to kiss her goodbye and then backed away from her. "Yeah. I'll be over around 5. I'm just going to stop by my house to grab some clothes for the next few days."
"Okay." She answered while still holding onto the front of his uniform and playing with his name tag. "I should get back to work..." He told her as he leaned in to kiss her again. "I'll see you later. You okay?"
"Yeah. Everything's good." She was gazing into his eyes. "Bye." She forced herself to separate from him and get into her car.
Alex watched her as she got in her car and drove away. He needed to get back to work. He started his truck and headed off.
Thanks for the reviews!!!! I appreciate all your kind words! I love hearing what you guys think! I was thinking about it and I think I might be making Dylan too nice. But I don't know. Lol. I always loved when Dylan and Norma had good sweet moments !! I also know I've kinda ditched Norman. Let me know what you think :)
