- Bobby... There are people for you.
At the shout of his great-aunt, who was in the hall, Goren put his coffee cup on the table, and looked away from Eames, whom he had only been looking at all breakfast.
Even though she was focused on Molly...
And her incessant chattering.
Cathy had told him that there were people for him...
Strange...
Goren couldn't remember ever suggesting anyone other than Eames to come to Maine with him.
So who could it be...
Who could it be...
Goren pushed his chair away from the table, stood up, left his breakfast, waved to Eames and Molly to tell them he'd be right back, and walked out of the kitchen, down the hall.
Name of God...
But who could be coming to see him...
He was trying to find out...
But he really couldn't see who could be here.
Moreover...
If he hadn't invited anyone else but Eames...
Then who...
Who could it be.
In addition...
Didn't his people see that she was bothering him.
During the whole breakfast...
He had not taken his eyes off an Eames, who was absorbed in Molly's chatter.
This way that Eames had to smile tenderly to his niece, to nod at each of her words.
How could he not fall for this little piece of woman.
And he was even more determined to seduce her.
Even if last night...
Eames had pushed him away.
He could not forget that she had reacted to his kiss...
That in response...
She had kissed him fiercely in turn.
And Goren would like to repeat the experience.
Maybe he could try something on their walks with Molly.
When Molly would go as usual to play in the fields, and pick flowers.
It would give him time to count his blessings to Eames.
And who knows, steal a kiss or two.
At this idea, he was completely inflamed.
But he turned back.
Eames had pushed him away last night.
It had hurt him a lot.
And he had never felt such pain.
But who knows...
With a little luck.
This time...
She wouldn't push him away.
After all...
He had seen very well how she had been very receptive to his kiss.
Then nothing prevented him from renewing the experiment.
Especially if it was to have a very willing Eames in his arms.
He was even ready to have a new refusal.
And even a slap.
Just to feel her quivering under his arms.
Because even if Eames said the opposite.
She had to feel this strong bond that united them last night.
A bond...
Much more soccer than their partnership.
Or their friendship.
- Hi Goren...
At the male voice he heard, Goren snapped out of his thoughts, and stopped dead in his tracks as he entered the hall, as if forbidden.
My God...
Everything but this.
No, it couldn't be.
It couldn't be him.
He must have been having a nightmare.
And yet...
That voice...
He recognized it in a thousand words.
And he couldn't be mistaken.
It was indeed his.
- You don't welcome your colleagues Logan and Barek.
At his great-aunt's reproach, Goren turned back.
But what was he doing here.
What did it mean.
And why hadn't he told her...
Instead of just turning up unannounced.

In addition...
If they were here...
How could he seduce Eames.
They would ruin everything.
It was bad enough he had to get rid of Sheriff Hops.
But now...
There was also Logan and Barek...
Oh no.
That wouldn't do.
He wanted to be alone with Eames.
And not with other people.
Were there still going to be people who would disturb him in his seduction enterprise.
- As they were staying at the hotel... I offered them to stay here.
And that was that.
Cathy had just said what Goren didn't want to hear.
Logan and Barek were going to stay here.
He thought it couldn't get any worse.
Well, he was served.
If they were here...
He could never even consider spending a private moment with Eames.
Molly already took up three quarters of Eames' time...
There was also Sheriff Hops who would show up at any time of the day.
And now Logan and Barek.
He was definitely unlucky.
Everything was against him.

Molly still didn't see her uncle coming back, so she put down her fork, pushed her chair away from the table, and stood up hurriedly.
- You come... She took Eames' hand in hers, forced her to stand up, and followed her. We'll see who knows who came to see Uncle Bobby.
What.
But it wasn't done.
Goren had a right to a little privacy.
Just because she was at her great aunt's house...
She was gonna be looking into him...
Or spy on her every move.
Or who was coming to visit her.
But on the other hand…

Seeing Molly tugging at her, forcing her to follow her, made her excited, and she wanted to know.
Seeing Molly so eager...
So eager...
And so curious.
Was so cute...
And so funny.
There was no doubt about it.
Molly looked like Goren in many ways.
She had never seen a person look so much like him.
Not only that...
Molly looked like him physically...
But even in the way she looked.
If Goren had had a daughter.
Eames was sure she would have been like Molly.
In addition...
Eames wasn't sure Goren would appreciate them crashing the party like that.
Trying to figure out who the people were who wanted to see him.
But on the other hand...
Eames had to admit that with the way Molly was...
It made her want to know who would come to see Goren.
She was not the curious type.
With this little girl around...
She was becoming one.
And then...
She couldn't forget their kisses from last night.
So maybe for Goren...
They had become intimate.
And maybe they could share some very personal things.
But no.
It was impossible.
Goren was a very mysterious person about his life.
And he wasn't going to open up to her now.
Not even after a kiss.
It was simply impossible.
In addition...
She'd better pull herself together.
And forget about what had happened the night before.
It was only a token after all.
At least...
Was it really what she thought…

Eames could not forget the caress of Goren's fingers on her leg that went up to her crotch.
And that she had stopped in time.
Because who knows what could have happened if she had let him continue his exploration.
At this thought, she became very hot, blushing violently, and the heart drumming to break in her chest.
My God...
She had to calm down and quickly.
She had to regain control of her mind...
Of her body.
And more...
Between them...
It would still be impossible.
She didn't want to break what was between them.
And she had told him that he shouldn't do such things.
So why did she hope, in spite of everything...
Secretly...
In her heart.
And not to mention...
That there was Hops.
So Eames had to forget what she felt for Goren last night.
And think of another man.
And Hops would be perfect.
- Alex...
At Barek's voice, Eames snapped out of her thoughts, and looked at Barek, where a big smile played on her lips.
- You know him...
At Molly's words, Eames lowered his face to her, nodded, gave her a big smile, and gently squeezed the child's hand in his.
- Come on, Molly... Alex walked towards Barek, Molly following him, keeping her hand in his. Let me introduce you to my friend and colleague Carolyn.
Arrived at the height of Barek, Eames raised his face towards Carolyn, smiled to him.
- What do you make there...
Barek pointed to Logan, who was standing next to Cathy and Goren, who was looking like he wasn't happy about their visit.
While she was very happy to see them.
The idea that he was thinking of coming to see them, warmed her heart.
After all...
They were the only ones of the criminal to be ,their true friends.
The only ones who had never disparaged Goren.

And just for that...
Eames loved them.
Because Barek and Logan knew how to see inside people.
And what they really were.
- Logan had the idea that we should come and say hello... And that we should come and spend a few days in Maine.
Spend a few days in Maine.
But it was great.
She would get to enjoy Carolyn.
And she could tell her all sorts of things.
Maybe she could tell her about what had happened last night between Goren and her.
And she could help him to see more clearly.
- That's great...
At her enthusiasm, Eames felt Goren's brown gaze land on her, shooting lightning bolts at her.
Name of God...
But Goren was not happy at all that they were there.
Just by the look in his eyes she could feel on her...
There was nothing more explicit.
Strangely...
She would have thought he would have been happy to see Logan.
He got along well with him.
So why was he in a bad mood.
She didn't understand him.
In addition...
Knowing Barek...
Eames knew that Carolyn would get along with Molly.
And so...
They could do things with the little girl.
Thinking of Molly.
- Carolyn... Eames brought Molly forward, and placed her in front of her, put both hands on her shoulders. Meet Goren's niece... Molly.
Barek looked down at the little girl, who lowered her face to her shyly clasped hands.
My God...
But Molly was the spitting image of Goren in a very small way.
It was extraordinary.
She never thought she would see something like this possible.
At least...
If the child was Goren's...
It would have been normal.

But a niece looked so much like her uncle...
It was striking.
Barek crouched down to the little girl's level and put his hand to her long ebony curls, stroking them with extreme gentleness.
- I am delighted to meet you... Little Molly.
At his words, and at the gentleness of the gesture, Molly blushed with pleasure, looked up into Barek's face with her big brown eyes, and smiled.
- Bobby... You can show them to their rooms... Cathy nodded and looked at her to comply. You'll pick up their luggage at the hotel.
And what else.
Go get their luggage at the hotel.
No, but Cathy wasn't serious.
He wasn't their slave.
In addition...
If they wanted to stay here...
They had to do it on their own.
Especially with them around...
They were going to ruin all his chances with Eames.
- We'll both go... Logan put his hand on Goren's shoulder, gave him a friendly hug. And that way we'll leave the girls to themselves.
Pardon.
Oh no.
He didn't want Logan in his way either.
- Logan whispered in Goren's ear so that only he could hear him. You think we're bothering you.
Yes...
They are bothering him.
But on the other hand...
He had to admit that he was happy to see them.
Eames and Barek loved each other.
And so they would be happy to spend time together.
And that could only be good for Molly.
To have another female presence near her.
And it was true that even though he couldn't seduce Eames in peace...
He liked Logan.
Logan who was one of the only ones to have never said anything bad about him.
On the contrary...
He was one of the only ones of his unit with Barek and Eames to respect his way of working.
So why not.
Maybe he could ask Logan for a hand.
But without him understanding that it was for Eames of course.
And who knows...
Maybe he would find a way to meet Eames face to face.
