He shook his head slowly, glancing around a little before stepping a little closer to Joey for the conversation. "She's too good for me now, but I'm not allowed to care, understand? And when she's a couple years older, she's going to be interested in going out, having fun, being young, but I'm also going to be a couple years older and probably shopping for a house in the 'burbs and getting a dog, and a sedan or something." He reminded the kid - it wasn't just the legality issue, they were in such different points in their lives. "But about her getting checked out - this guy won't ask questions. Either you take her, or you'll be in the hospital in a couple weeks, but that's not my call to make." -- RD Present: The Boardwalk

"That girl is years older then you will ever be." The tone of his voice turned more passionate as he spoke. "She's seen things you think only happen on Law and Order, she's lived through hell in those sixteen years of her life and she will never, ever, have the chance to be young again." His brow cocked, tipping his head. "I would bet anything that the only time she ever felt like a normal girl was when she was with you and you took that away from her." His eyes dropped down to the card in his hand, looking at it for a second. "But, like you said, not your worry right? Just walk back to your perfect little world where little girls aren't forced to become women way before their time and being sixteen means your child." (NT) -- Joey, Sat, Oct 08 2005, 10:03pm PDT
