AN: For this story to actually make sense, I'm realizing I have to age Aidan just a little. so just pretend that he is whatever age you want to for this to make sense. I think this is an important part of the story so I didn't want to cut it out.LOL

When Kendall came out of the shower she found Aidan staring at a photo album. She smiled as she sat down beside him, trying to ive him the same sense of courage that he had always given her.
Kendall: What you looking at?
Aidan: I was just trying to figure out when my family got so far out of wack...
She took the book from him and looked at it.
Kendall: You all look so happy here.
Aidan: We were. That was before my sister was taken and we were all shattered.
Kendall: Aidan, look. I know you like to take on the world but you've got to let this go. This was in no way your fault.
Aidan: I just keep thinking that maybe if I had stuck around I could of prevented them from hrting an innocent women...
Kendall: How? How could you have managed that? Aidan... I know you feel guilty about what happened to Nora, but you've got to let this go. You couldn't have kept her from being in the wrong place at the wrong time... you couldn't have stopped her from loving one brother and being raped by another... and you couldn't have prevented her from going mad afterwards.
Aidan: Its funny you should bring that up Kendall cause there's something I never told you about my past. Something that very much involves a certain red head that we both know.
Kendall: What?
Aidan: Well I know this is gonna sound strange considering the age difference but...
Kendall: You were in love with her weren't you?
He paused as he looked at her.
Aidan: First time I ever got my heart broken Kendall. But I always promised that I'd look out for her. I didn't live up to that promise. She counted on me to watch her back and I failed her.
Kendall: How can you say that?
Aidan: Because I knew that Josh was just stringing her along and I never said a word. I thought I was protecting her but what ended up happening was exactly what I was trying to avoid in the first place. THAT is why I have such issues with honesty Kendall. I lied to Nora to protect her and she wound up getting raped by my own brother. How's that for irony.

When Bo came out of the shower and found Nora, she was crying. He put his arms around her and pulled her into an embrace.
Nora: I'm scared Bo. I've never had to go through something so terrifying before. My whole life could change today.
Bo: What are you hoping those results say?
Nora: I wish I didn't have to go through this at all Bo. I don't want to face events from my past anymore.
Bo: Your safe now Red. Whatever you go through, I go through. I'll protect you. Always.
Nora: I know that now. And now that I've met Elizabeth, I'm kinda hoping that I have found my daughter. There's always been a part of me missing Bo. I'm just scared of what that will mean.
Bo: Nora, I want you to listen to me ok? I love you. And no matter what those test results say that's not gonna change. And if Elizabeth is your daughter, then I will do whatever I have to to make this easier for both of you.
Nora: I don't think there's a way for you to do that Bo. Elizabeth will be branded the child of a rapist and I don't know how to protect her from that.
Bo: What about you Nora? How can I protect you?
Nora: You don't need to protect me Bo. All you have to do is love me.
Bo: I already do. (He kisses her) and Its as easy as breathing. But I think I have a way to protect Elizabeth from ever having to live the life of a rapists child. That is if your interested?
Nora: I'm always interested in what you have to say.
Bo: What would you say about me adopting her?
She looked up at him. obviously shell shocked.
Nora: Are you serious? You would really want to do that? Take on the responsibility of a child who is grown with a child of her own... a child that...
Bo: A child that may very well be YOUR child. Don't you get that Nora? If she's your daughter then she's my dauhter too. I love you and thats all that matters to me. I would actually consider it an honor if you let me be a part of that.
Nora: Well I think that may very well be up to Elizabeth.
Bo: Yes. It would be. But I didn't want to bring up the subject if you were totally against it or something.
Nora(Smiling): You always know what's best for me when I don't even know it myself. I love you Bo. I always have. And if you wanna be a part of our lives then I'm not gonna stop you. Elizabeth would be so lucky to have YOU as her father. Just like Matthew is. (She kissed him)
Bo: I suppose we should get going then shoudn't we?
Nora: Its the moment of truth isn't it?
Bo: You'll be fine Nora. You have so much more strength then you realize.
Nora: I have you Bo. and thats so much more then I ever had before. Thank you for protecting me.
They kissed one more time before walking out the door to face the results that could change their life forever.

Elizabeth was sitting in the waiting room when Lucky came back with a cup of tea.
Lucky: Maybe this will settle your stomach. I know this can't be easy for you.
Elizabeth: I don't know what I'm so afraid of Lucky. I never had parents in my life and now suddenly I could have a mother.
Lucky: It must be kind of strange at this point in your life.
Elizabeth: Its not that I would need a mother Lucky. I mean, yeah I'm pretty set in my life. And its too late for those little things like tucking me in at night or going to my school plays or stuff like that. But I always wanted a mother in my life Lucky... someone to listen to and go shopping with and just be there. Maybe its not too late for that.
Lucky: I think that sounds like something that might be possible.
He pauses as he looks at her.
Lucky: What is it that your most afraid of? That the results will be positive or that they won't.
Elizabeth: Thats a good question. If the results are positive I gain a mother but I also have to face the fact that I've been lied to my whole life. If the results are negative then I go back to living life the way I've always lived it... and Nora goes back to living her life without her daugher... but I can't say that My life would still be the same Lucky. She touched my life in that wherehouse. When I saw her going through the emotions of her rape, well it was like I was looking through time. We have a connection Lucky... whether we're related or not.
Lucky: It sounds like you've come to terms with this?
Elizabeth: Yeah I think I have. Its not gonna be easy living life as a rapists child...
Lucky: And have you decided what you want to do about that aspect of your life?
Elizabeth: He put my mom through the worst kind of hell... I want him as far away from me as possible. I don't even think I would acknowledge him as my father Lucky. He would be dead to me.
He pulled her into his arms for a hug.
Lucky: Things will be ok Sweetheart.
Elizabeth: I know they will be. I have you now. and you've given me so much strength. Thank you for always loving me.
Lucky: Hey, its like breathing.
They kissed just as they saw Nora and Bo coming around the corner. They all huddled together on the couch in the waiting room.
Elizabeth: Are you ready for this Nora?
Nora: I'm as ready as I'll ever be Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: But are you ok with it? I mean I know this can't be easy for you.
Nora: It's not. It scares the hell out of me. But I really am ok. Bo made me see that.
They hugged as they braced themselves for the test results that would soon change their lives forever. Bo and Lucky just watched them, praying that they would both have the strength to face this head on.
