He couldn't resist. He touched her hair, gazed into her eyes. Out of Paul's earshot he said, "I hope I get a chance to show you I'm a better deal. I can be there for you through all this crap. I'd never let you down, never leave you to wonder how I felt. Never." He took a breath. "I hope the son of a bitch disappoints you." She laughed hollowly. "I'm sure that's exactly what's going to happen." She held her son against her chest and put her palm against his cheek. "Thank you for being so understanding. You've been very decent." He laughed. "That wasn't my original idea." He became serious. "You know my number, in case you're ever ready to move on. I mean, really move on." *
