- So you decide to tell him...
What was his father talking about...
What was Goren supposed to tell her...
Goren was not going to leave without her...
And leave her with her father.
After what she had just been through...
Eames only wanted one thing...
To be alone with Goren...
And to be in his arms.
Goren looked at John Eames and nodded.
Yes...
He had to tell Eames the news...
But after what she had just been through...
He had thought of everything...
Except this.
Was this really the time...
Goren would have preferred to tell her alone.
But then...
He could say it with Eames' father present.
Goren walked towards Eames.
When he arrived at her side, he crouched down at her height, took her hands in his, intertwined his fingers with hers.
- Alex... He gently tightened the pressure of his fingers. Your father has agreed that we should get married.
At his words, Eames' heart pounded violently in her chest, ready to explode.
She had been so afraid...
Afraid that he would tell her that he was leaving her with his father...
And that he was leaving her.
But could she even believe his words...
Was it true...
Had her father really accepted...
- Is it true Bobby...
At Eames' worried little voice, Goren set out to reassure her.
Eames was so fragile.
He had only one desire...
Protect her.
He brought his hand to her cheek and caressed it with infinite softness.
- Yes... It's true... My angel.
A big smile appeared on Alex's lips, lighting up her face.
She untied her fingers from his, ran them up his arm, met his neck, and stopped them at his face, brushed it.
- Bobby...
At the caress of Eames' fingers on his face, Goren felt his heart racing.
He took her hand in his, brought it to his lips, placed small kisses on it, which made Alex shiver.
Damn it...
He had to calm down.
If it had been just the two of them...
He would have kissed her fiercely...
And he would have shown her how much he loved her...
By making love to her.
But here...
He couldn't.
John Eames was here.
- You're staying the night...
Goren wanted to shout no.
But he wasn't sure.
He wanted to take Eames home...
And make love to him.
But here...
At Eames' father's house...
It was simply impossible.
He couldn't.
- You'll sleep in Alex's room.
Reluctantly, Goren nodded.
- We'll stay... Thank you.
