Illusions Chapter 23

Chapter 23

The next week was almost like being newlyweds. Nora was loving it, especially since everyday Bo seemed to regain bigger chunks of his memory. She knew it wouldn’t be long before he would remember them being married.

She was laying on the bed reading when Bo came back in the room with food in hand. He put the bags to the side and kissed her shoulder. She smiled at him and adjusted herself when he handed her food. They began to eat.

“Red?”
“Hmm?”
“Where we always like this?”
“Like what?”
“Like two teenager? Did marriage slow us down.”
Nora swallowed her food and thought a bit.

“Well, yes and no. I mean this is unusual, but I think about it, on days where neither of had to work and we had no kids, well it was just like this. We'd never leave our room. Our love life never suffered, trust me on that Bo.”

Bo smiled then leaned down and kissed her.

“Good, I love being with you, it would make me sad to think we would lose this part of our lives after time.”
“Bo I don’t think you have any worry. So?”
“So?”
“What you remembering today?”
He got a serious look on his face.

“Well I remember Didi and her death.” Nora ran a hand down his face. “It’s okay Red. Then I uh, well I remember Alex.”
Nora choked on her sandwich. Bo patted her on the back as she coughed.

“Warn a girl Bo, what pray tell do remember about Ms. Olengauf?”
“Well, I remember I liked her.” Nora screwed her face in disgust. “Then I realized she was crazy and that she tried to kill Cassie.” Nora laughed. Bo gave her an odd look.

“Bo do remember anything else?”
“Uh no.”
“She and Asa got married.”
“What? You are lying to me right?”
“Nope, before we did. It was Egyptian Themed and she was Cleopatra”
“No!”
“Oh Yes, it was quite the event. I personally can’t wait till can remember it so we can laugh about it again.” Bo looked stunned. “Don’t worry that marriage last a few years, you know those two.”

Bo finally laughed and shook his head.

“You know sometimes I feel so normal, especially when I am with you, but then something like that comes up and it almost seems like it happened to a stranger.”
Nora put her food to the side and cuddled up to him.

“You’ll remember Bo, you are remembering more and more everyday.”
He smiled and kissed her nose.

“I know, but God Red, I want to remember our life together, all of it.”

“You will.”

Bo put his food down and kissed her while pushing her back down on the bed. Nora sighed, she never wanted this week to end.
