JORDAN
He took me in when I had nowhere else to go.
He doesn’t use me, hurt me, or forget about me. He doesn’t treat me like I’m nothing, take me for granted, or make me feel unsafe.
He remembers me, laughs with me, and looks at me. He listens to me, protects me, and sees me. I can feel his eyes on me over the breakfast table, and my heart pumps so hard when I hear him pull in the driveway after work.
I have to stop this. It can’t happen.
My sister once told me there are no good men, and if you find one, he’s probably unavailable.
Only Pike Lawson isn’t the unavailable one. I am.
PIKE
I took her in, because I thought I was helping.
She’d cook a few meals and clean up a little. It was an easy arrangement.
As the days go by, though, it’s becoming anything but easy. I have to stop my mind from drifting to her and stop holding my breath every time I bump into her in the house. I can’t touch her, and I shouldn’t want to.
The more I find my path crossing hers, though, the more she’s becoming a part of me.
But we’re not free to give into this. She’s nineteen, and I’m thirty-eight.
And her boyfriend’s father.
Unfortunately, they both just moved into my house.

JORDAN
Lui mi ha preso con sé quando non avevo dove andare.
Non mi usa, non mi ferisce e non si dimentica di me. Non mi tratta come se non fossi nulla, non mi dà per scontata e non mi fa sentire insicura.
Lui si ricorda di me, ride con me, mi guarda. Mi ascolta, mi protegge, e mi vede. Posso sentire i suoi occhi su di me dal tavolo della colazione, e il mo cuore batte forte quando lo sento rientrare da lavoro.
Devo smetterla. Non può succedere.
Mia sorella diceva che non ci sono uomini buoni e che se ne trovi uno, non è di certo disponibile.
Solo che non è Pike Lawson a essere impegnato.
Lo sono io.
PIKE
L'ho presa con me, perché pensavo di poterla aiutare.
Lei avrebbe cucinato e pulito un po'. Era un accordo semplice.
Ma mentre i giorni passavano, è diventato tutto tranne che semplice. Devo smettere di fantasticare su di lei e smettere di trattenere il respiro ogni volta che mi imbatto in lei in casa. Non posso toccarla, e non dovrei volerlo.
Più le nostre strade si incrociano, più lei diventa parte di me.
Ma non siamo liberi di farlo. Lei ha 19 anni ed io 38.
E sono il padre del suo fidanzato.
Sfortunatamente adesso entrambi si stanno trasferendo a casa mia.
