Valentine's Day 2002
This is what really happened. That junk yesterday was being
injected into our frequecies by aliens or something. This is the
actual show from Valentine's Day 2002. My special secret TV caught
it last night. :)

The microwave sounded alerting Nora that the popcorn was
ready. She eagerly took the bowl, popped a few
pieces in her mouth and headed to the living room.
Nora: Oh shoot! (putting the bowl on the table) forgot the rootbeer.
She hummed as she headed back into the kitchen and grabs the rootbeer out of the fridge.
Nora: Hmmm hmmm hmmmm...as time goes by....
She sets the bottle down on the table and walks over to the TV and flips it on.
Nora: Movie...movie...movie....ah ha! There you are!
She takes the disc out of the box and places it in the DVD player.
Nora: Almost showtime (she checks her watch, smiles and heads upstairs)
Once upstairs she heads into the bathroom and lines some small candles along the edge of the tub, sets out the large white bath sheet and put the CD player on the counter, along with a couple of CD's.
Nora: (to herself) I thought today was going to be hard! Ha!
She walks back into her bedroom and takes out a box from the closet. She sets it on the bed and opens it, carefully taking out a beautiful dark evergreen camisole set. She lies it out on the bed and steps back.
Nora: Perfect...
She heads back downstairs...
Nora: Dinner...dinner...dinner...hhmmmm....
She picks up the phone and dials.
Nora: Hi...yes...this is Nora Buchanan...uh huh...yes...number
three...half an hour? Excellent!
Ok, thank you...bye. (hangs up the phone) I've got the appetizer
(pointing to the popcorn) drinks chilled (pointing to the rootbeer)
dinner on the way (pointing to the phone) movie in the player...anything
else...(tapping her temple)anything else...upstairs is ready...well,
looks like this isn't going to be that bad of a Valentine's Day
after all.

Bo is at his desk, head down, elbow deep in paper work. He grabs his coffee cup and as he drinks, realizes that it is empty. He frowns and walks over to the coffee pot, only to find it empty. He walks out into the main station and heads over to their coffee pot.
Tim: Hey Commissioner, I didn't realize you were still here.
Bo: Yeah, well...
Tim: No big V-Day plans?
Bo: (chuckles) Not really, how bout you?
Tim: Takin' the little lady to the Palace (looks at his watch) and with that, I bid you adieu!
Bo: Night Tim, have a good time.
Tim: Thanks...we will...a little dinner...a little dancing...a little (he raises his eyebrows)
Bo: (laughing) You better get going...or there'll be no (Bo raises his eyebrows)
Tim: Later boss...
Tim leaves, Bo pours the last of the coffee in his mug and heads back into his office. He sits down and turns on the radio.
DJ: Hope you all are enjoying a wonderful Valentine's Day 2002...we've got some more requests and dedications coming up after these annoucement from our sponsors...
Bo turns down the commercials and sits back a second. His mind wandering...
Bo: Valentine's Day...huh...why not..
He shuts down his computer and closes up shop, grabs his keys and heads to his car. Once inside, he flips the radio on to the station that was on in his office.
DJ: All right...like they say, do not forget that special someone, especially today...and there's a few hours left...
Bo: Ok...ok...I get the hint!
DJ: Now, for all you lovers, here's an oldie but a goodie, so, sit back, with that special someone and make the most of this beautiful night...
As the familiar tune by Mary Wells, "My Guy" plays, Bo smiles. He even sings along a little bit.
Bo: This is crazy...I said never again...(he shakes his head and continues to drive)

Nora sits munching on popcorn watching the beginning of Casablanca. Before too long the doorbell rings.
Nora: Great! I am starving!
She goes to the door, purse in hand searching for money. She opens the door.
Nora: (Looking into her purse) Hang on, I know I've got money in here somewhere...
Bo: I don't charge...
Nora: (startled, drops her purse) Bo!
Bo: Hi.
Nora: Hi.
Bo: (he hands her a bouquet of flowers) Happy Valentine's Day?
Nora: Are you asking me?
Bo: (pursing his lips, then biting his lip) No...Happy Valentine's Day!
Nora: (hugging him) Happy Valentine's Day.
Bo: I know we said we weren't going celebrate...
Nora: I kinda like sneaking around...hey...I thought you weren't coming over, you said you were going to stay at the station...
Bo: (pointing over his shoulder) I could leave...
Nora smiles and grabs his collar, pulling him into the house and to herself. He wraps his arms around her waist and picks her up, kicking the door closed behind him.
Bo: I missed you today...
Nora: I missed you too...and I was preparing to miss you tonight...
Bo carries her into the living room and places her back down on the floor, but still holds her. She wraps her arms around his neck, still holding the flowers in her hand.
Nora: I'm glad I don't have too now...
They move in and share a deep loving kiss.
Bo: I wish we could let everyone in on our little secret...
Nora: (resting her head against his chest) I know...soon we can...as soon as this stuff with Lindsay is over...the whole world will know...
Bo: You don't think Sam suspects...
Nora: Doubtful...he never lets me get a word in edgewise...so as far as he's concerned, I sit here in the dark like a mushroom when he's not here...
Bo: Where is he tonight? I was sure he'd be here trying to...
Nora holds her hand up to stop him from talking.
Nora: Please...every time he tries to come near me, I get physically ill...(hugging Bo and resting her head on his shoulder) what about Grabby, oop, I mean, Gabby...isn't she trying to make some sort of Valentine's Day voodoo dinner...to lure you into her clutches?
They laugh and sit down on the couch.
Bo: (rolling her eyes) Its all an act..
Nora: An act?
Bo: She wants Max back...so she uses me to get at him...
Nora: And you're ok with that?
Bo: Hey...I got what I want (he smiles and lays her back on the couch and start to kiss her)
The doorbell rings
Bo: Expecting company?
Nora: Expecting dinner!
Bo: Mmm..mmm...mmm you know the way to a man's heart...
Nora: My man's heart
She heads to the door and returns with dinner
Nora: Piping hot...number three..
Bo: (smiles) medium hand tossed...loaded! Come here beautiful...
Nora: You talking to me...or the pizza?
Bo: (standing up and taking the pizza out of her hand and placing it on the coffee table) What do you think? (he dips her back into a kiss) Beautiful...
Nora: I'm thinking we should for go pizza and work on dessert...
Bo: Dessert?
Nora: Dessert...
Bo:(smiling) I love dessert...
Nora: I know you do...
Bo pulls her to him.
Bo: You know how much I love you?
Nora: I think I have an idea...Bo (she runs her hand along his face) you don't how I ached to be back here...with you like this...
Bo: (placing his finger up to her lips to quiet her) Not tonight. This is a fleeting moment we get...to be all alone, to be in love, to be happy...
Nora: To be us...
Bo: So...(hugs her tightly) do you know what we need to do to make this right?
Nora: Wild, passionate, uninhibited, totally amazing, unbelievable sex?
Bo: (smiling and kissing her) That's later...stay here (he walks away) we need...
The room is filled with music.
Bo: We need to dance...
Nora: What would Valentine's Day be without a dance with my handsome Valentine?
Bo: As incomplete as mine would be without tripping the light fantastic, with the love of my life, safe and secure in my arms.
Nora: (placing her hand on his shoulder) Happy Valentine's Day Bo...
Bo: (holding her around the waist and moving slowly to the beat of the music) Happy Valentine's Day Red.
The End
