Intoxicating- Part 8
She awoke the smell of Coffee brewing and as she slowly began to open her eyes, memories of last night crept into her mind and left her smiling for the first time in a really long time. As she walked into the bathroom, she caught a glimpse of him stepping out with nothing more than a towel. She smiled that Nora smile as she walked closer to him.
Nora: You know. I could really get used to this image first thing in the morning. You still look great in a towel.
Bo (Smiling at her as he pauses): Well maybe we’ll have to do something about YOU then?
She couldn’t contain her giddiness as he stepped forward and drew her mouth to his in a sensual but passionate kiss. She wrapped her arms around him as he began to deepen the kiss. He pulled away briefly and looked into her eyes.
Bo: Would you care to join me in the shower Mrs. Buchanan?
She smiled at the reference to the Buchanan family name, knowing that despite everything, his words meant he still thought of her as part of the Buchanan family.
Nora: You already took one remember?
Bo (Kissing her slightly): So I’ll take another…<br>
She laughed as she leaned in closer and “ Helped” him lose his towel. He slipped the straps of her nightgown off of her shoulders and let it fall to the floor. Then he stared at her for a few seconds.
Bo: You are so beautiful Nora. I think I can honestly say that you’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. You still take my breath away …every hour of every day.
Nora (Staring into is eyes): I love you Bo. I really, really love you. I know things aren’t perfect for us right now, but I want you to know that if I could I would spend every waking hour with you. You are the answer to every single one of my prayers.
He kissed her as he dragged her inside for a shower. After their own version of “ Rub a dub dub,” he turned off the faucet and scooped her up in his arms. He carried her to the bed and they made love. After she went to get changed, he disappeared into the kitchen. When she came back, he was sitting on the bed with all of her favorite foods. She smiled at him as she joined him.
Nora: You are going to spoil me Buchanan. You know that?
She kissed him as he wrapped his arms around her.
Bo: That my dear, is the point.
Nora (Pausing): Bo, I don’t have time for this. I have to get to the hospital.
Bo: You have to eat Nora. So… (He began to open the plates) Take your Pick? I’m not letting you leave here until you start taking better care of yourself… starting with breakfast.
Nora: You’re a prince you know that? I certainly don’t deserve you.
Bo: Your right, you don’t. (She hit him playfully) But I love you anyways.
Nora: Well you can at least help me with some of this stuff. There’s no way I’m going to be able to eat ALL of it.
Bo (Smiling): All right, you talked me into it. What should we start with?
Nora: How about Pancakes? You know I’m a sucker for chocolate chip pancakes?
Bo: I know. Why do you think I had them made special? You deserve nothing but the best. (They kiss)
About an hour later, Nora kissed Bo goodbye and headed for the hospital to play the dutiful wife. She ran into Viki in the waiting room.
Nora: I’m sorry Viki. I know I should have been here earlier. It couldn’t be helped.
Viki: Its ok sweetheart. I covered for you. I know this isn’t easy for you.
Nora: It kills me Viki. I don’t want to hurt Josh. He’s been nothing but good to me. But how can I stay with him when I’m in love with someone else? Something about that just seems wrong. It’s not fair to any of us.
Viki: I know. And I feel terrible for asking you to do it in the first place. I just don’t think he’s strong enough yet.
Nora: I know. And I’ll wait until he is. But after that, I’m done. You and I both know that lies have a way of spiraling out of control. I can’t be in this marriage any longer than I have to because my heart is married to someone else. Eventually he’ll pick up on that Viki. I’m not THAT good of a liar. And then what? What’s he going to do when he finds out we’ve been lying to him?
Viki: I don’t know sweetheart. Hopefully we’ll know what to do when the time comes.
Nora: Yeah, hopefully. (Pause) I guess I better go see him. He’s probably wondering where I am.
Viki watches Nora walk into her husband’s hospital room and her heart breaks for her. She could tell by looking at her that something had changed. There was a certain glow about her this time and she knew exactly what that meant. And now, because of circumstances, when she should be able to bask in the wonder of true love, she is stuck in a loveless marriage to a man, who may never walk again. What kind of sense was there in that she wondered as she walked away?
Once Viki came around the corner, Lindsay stepped out of the shadows. She looked towards Josh’s hospital room and said nothing, obviously plotting something. A couple hours later Nora leaves Josh’s bedside only to be yanked into a storage closet by an unknown assailant.
