Eames did not move, her head resting against Goren's chest, carefully holding Lola against her, and savoring the sweetness of the situation.
Goren had a really nice voice.
A very soft voice...
But so warm.
It was really strange...
This sweetness...
When you saw the look of his body.
But inside...
She knew that his voice was a good match for her.
He was a very gentle person...
And also...
Someone who was very passionate.
Eames burst into flames.
No...
This was not the time to think about that.
Eames pulled herself together.
She thought back to Lola's every word.
We are family...
Lola was right...
Goren, Lola, the baby, and her...
Were going to be a family of their own.
But for that...
There was one small detail to be settled...
That of Goren and Lola.
Would Goren agree to become Lola's father...
In his own right...
By filling out adoption papers.
She had to talk to him.
For Lola.
- Alex...
At Goren's whisper, and the caress of his fingers on her shoulder, Eames snapped out of her thoughts.
- Lola fell asleep.
The book closed and in her lap...
With gentleness, he brought his hand to Lola's cheek, caressed it.
A small smile appeared on Lola's lips at this caress.
He withdrew his hand from Eames, moved gently and slowly away from Lola's little body, put the book on the bedside table, and stood up.
He took the sheet between his fingers, and covered Lola's little body.
Goren held out his hand to Eames, who took it, and intertwined his fingers with hers.
- You come...
Eames nodded, all pink.
Goren's brown eyes, looking at her intently, shone with that little flame she knew so well...
The flame of desire.
She burst into flames, her heart beating violently in her chest, and became all scarlet.
Eames knew very well what was going to happen as soon as they left Lola's room, to go to her bedroom, to be alone.
And as soon as the door was closed...
She and Goren would jump at each other...
Leaving room for the passion that devoured them all.
Despite the days, and the months that passed...
This passion was only stronger...
More violent.
She had never felt that...
Even for Joe...
Lola's father.
And yet...
She had loved him.
So it was possible to love in a different way.
Goren helped Eames to get up, taking great care to get Lola out of the way, and to put the little girl gently under the sheets.
Eames let Goren guide him.
