Subject: FF Challenge- The Long Road Home

The Long Road Home

She was standing in the bathroom, trying to calm her rattled nerves. She could feel the butterflies in her stomach and for the first time in years, she could swear she felt like passing out. She had never been so nervous.

It was then that she heard the knock on the door.

Bo: Nora� Baby would you please stop avoiding me and open the door? Red�

She opened the door and his breath caught in his throat when he looked at her.

Bo: I don�t know what you were so worried about. You still take my breath away.

Nora: Bo, I�m�

Bo: You�re what? Sweetheart, you�re beautiful. And I�m not just talking about the part that�s obvious. You�re beautiful on the inside and I think that�s shining in your eyes right now.

Nora: I think I�m just seeing myself through YOUR eyes. (Pausing) I�m scared Bo. No actually, terrified would be more accurate.

Bo: And you think I�m not? Why don�t we be terrified together?

She didn�t say anything more as he led her into the other room and turned on the radio. Tunes of My girl filled the room and she began to relax.

Nora: How do you always know what I need?

Bo: Maybe because I need it too. I never knew what it was like to need someone so much until I had to live without it. I need you Red. I need you so much.

Nora: I know. It scares me to know that I need you as much as I do. And when I say need, I don�t mean for material things. They�ve never mattered to me Bo. I could live in tent and be happier then I�ve ever been in my life because you were there with me. But emotionally� God it scares me to death because I need you just as much as I need to breathe. I�ve never been that dependent on anyone in my life. I never needed anyone before you.

Bo: I guess I sort of screwed up your plans then?

Nora: I�m glad you did. If you hadn�t come into my life I never would have known what it felt like to have real love in my life. Even the worst times with you were still the best I�ve ever had. I love you Bo.

Bo (Looking in her eyes): I love you too. You�ve always been my girl Red. Nobody else ever came close.

Nora: Do you really mean that?

Bo: with all of my heart. I�ve missed you. Do you have any idea how many times I wanted to pick up the phone and call you in the middle of the night? But then I realized that you weren�t mine anymore and I was too damn stubborn to admit that I made a mistake.

Nora: I know how you feel. I used to lie awake at night and dream of holding you like this. I never thought it would happen but I couldn�t help myself. You�ve always been the only man that truly held my heart� Oh who am I kidding� you ARE my heart.

Bo: And you�re mine.

Nora: So I guess we finally found our way home huh?

Bo: Yeah� I guess we just took the long way.

Nora: Well you know what they say� better late then never.

They started to kiss passionately as they stayed locked in each other�s embrace. As their kissing started to get more heated, he pulled away and looked at her.

Bo: If you�re not ready for this then you�re going to have to tell me now. Otherwise I�m not going to be capable of putting an end to it.

She responded with a kiss more passionate then the last.

Nora: I can�t promise not to hurt you again because I�m pretty sure that�s a given. What I CAN promise is not to make the same mistakes� never to hurt you on purpose� and to do everything in my power to make sure you don�t regret giving us another shot.

Bo: Ditto.

Nora: Then consider the past dead and buried. I don�t ever want to hear about any of the mistakes that we made that led us here. We�ve talked this to death. You�ve forgiven me� I�ve forgiven you. It�s time to wipe the slate clean and move on.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and started to kiss him passionately.

Nora: It�s way past time for us to move this discussion to the next level.

Bo: Who said anything about a discussion? Discussing involves talking.

Nora: Then maybe we should move right into the carrying out stage?

Bo: You�re on�

They started to kiss again and slowly began to move towards the blanket he had set up on the floor. There were no more reservations� no more interruptions and no more talk about the past. Just a couple rediscovering the passion that never really died. After making love, Nora lay nestled in his arms.

Nora: Well

Bo: That was� It was�

Nora: My thoughts exactly. There are no words.

Bo: Maybe we should try again?

Nora: Maybe we should

She laughed when he pulled her into his arms again. Yes, all was right with the world again. And neither of them wanted to break the magic of being in each other�s arms again. It was simply indescribable.

THE END
