Norma had just put the girls down for the night. After they fell asleep Norma sat there staring at them. She found comfort in her daughters. Norma sat there watching them breathe until she was snapped out of her trance by the sound of Alex getting in the shower. She slowly got up leaving the room and going to the bathroom. After Norma slowly opened the door, she was hit with the strong smell of Alex's body wash. She quietly shut the door behind her. Alex heard a noise, he pulled back the curtain to see his wife standing there in her robe, "The girls asleep?" Norma nods then smiles at him.
Alex stares back at her.
"What's with the smile?" He raises his brow. Norma slowly pulls the string of her robe. As the material falls off her skin Alex gasps, not expecting his wife to be completely naked. He immediately pulls her in, the swift motion making her giggle. They stood there, bodies pressed together, staring into each others eyes.
"How are you feeling?" He kisses her.
"Mmm.." she kisses him, "Better now." She hops up wrapping her legs around his waist. Norma starts kissing him hard. She lets out a gasp as Alex lowers her down onto his hardness. Norma's wet head rested on the shower wall as she enjoyed the feeling of her husband inside of her. Alex was holding her hips, guiding her up and down. With each thrust Norma's grip on Alex grew tighter. The feeling of her wrapped around him sent him over the edge. They both ride out their orgasms as the water in the shower gets cold.
"Come on." Alex kisses her shoulder, "Let's get to bed."

It was early, around 5, when Norma heard the sound of her husband getting ready for work. She kept her eyes shut knowing he'd come wake her before he left.
Alex kisses Norma's head, "Good Morning hun." He runs his fingers through her hair, "You should get up my love." Alex kisses the side of Norma's neck.
The sleepy blonde stretches her arms, "I don't want to get up." She chuckles.
"You've got to get the girls ready for school."

Once the girls were safely to school Norma drives off. Before she knew it she was secretly at Pine View for the second time. This time she was going to see Norman. As she entered the building she felt the warm air on her face. It was comforting. She walked to the receptionist, who was new.
"Hi. I spoke with Dr. Edwards. I'm here to see my son Norman." Norma smiles at the young lady.
"Yes Norman is waiting for you." The woman stands up from the desk and leads Norma to the visiting area. As Norma's eyes meet her sons, she stares at him. Her little baby looks grown. Norma's stomach drops when she realizes Norman knows nothing about his little sisters or that she got back with Alex.
"Hello mother." Norman approaches.
"Hi honey." Norma hugs her son close.
Her eyes full of tears as she feels him in her arms.
They go on a walk in the designated area. Norman apologizes for how he was and all the things he did. Norman tells her how he's been. He's made tremendous progress.
"I haven't had a blackout in 2 weeks. I'm very happy here. Thank you mother." He gives her that smile that melts her heart, "How have you been?"
The questions sinks her heart, "Well..." she fights the urge lie, "Well Norman I-" she swallows back the lump in her throat, "You have two sisters...." she pauses "Nora and Alice. You also have a niece named Kate."
Norman looks at her "Nora and Alice?" He raises a brow, "Like Norma and Alex."
"Yes." She coughs the tension out of her throat.
"That's nice. I know you really loved him mother." He smiles.
When she heard those words her heart wrenched. Tears fill her eyes and she hugs her son tight.

Norma had spent the day playing games, watching tv, and painting with Norman. Her phone buzzed at 3 o'clock. She went to get the girls from school. Norma sat them down and helped them with their homework. She was staring at the Alice thinking about how much she looked like Norman.
"I'm home." The house was filled with joyful screams when the girls heard their father. Alex scooped them up in his arms, "Hello my darling girls." He kisses their heads, sits them down, then goes to their mom.
"And hello my darling wife." Norma was facing the window when Alex hugged her from behind. He started kissing her neck.
"Hi." She giggles when he nibbles on her neck softly.
"How was your day?"
Her face drops and he immediately picks up in the mood shift.
"What?"
—————————
"Okay uhm." Alex tried processing the news that Norman is back in their lives, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I- I was scared you'd be mad."
"I'm not mad how is he." Alex grabs her hand.
"Good. I told him about the girls and you and he was... happy."
Alex looks at Norma, "You told him about the girls?"
"Yeah? Why?" Norma takes offense.
"Because Norma. He could hurt our girls. You haven't taken them to see him have you?!"
"No! What if I did?! Norman is still my son and he's doing better"
"Norma he tried to kill you!" Alex yells.
Norma looks at him with a frightened look "You don't think I know that..."
"You're not taking them to see him! I don't want to be that person Norma but I'm not putting my girls in the situation."
"I'm gong to finish dinner."
For the rest of the night Norma stayed quiet she would hardly even speak to the girls. After dinner she immediately went upstairs and went to bed.
"What's wrong with Momma?" Nora looked at her dad.
"She's just tired." Alex says softly.
He gets the girls ready for bed then walks to their bedroom.
"Norma..?" He heard a sniffle that broke his heart, "Norma please I'm sorry." Alex walks to the side Norma was facing. She turned the other way.
"Go to the couch.." her voice broke.
Alex didn't argue he went straight to the living room. After downing a shot of whiskey he laid in the couch staring at the ceiling. He hated that Norma was upset but he would do whatever it takes to save his daughters.
