Jay's POV "I got to Hailey's house, I saw her truck, I knocked on the door, a girl opened the door" "hi ..." she said, she had blue eyes and blonde hair "hey .... Hailey lives here" I said and I bent down "Amelia, how many times do I have to say no...." "Hi" I said and stood up "Mommy, who is he?" Amelia said "ah ... he is .." "I'm Jay, I work with your mommy" I said smiling "you're a cop" she said, I nodded "cool" she said laughing "Amelia, why aren't you going to add more sprinkles to the cookies" said Hailey, "Okay" she said and left "How ... how do you know where I live" said Hailey "Vanessa told me, it was wrong ... I can go if it's a bad time ..." I said "no, no ... okay, you want to come in" she said, I nodded, We both smiled, she opened the door for me to enter, I went in and saw the photos that were pasted on the wall, there was only Hailey and her little one "do you want a beer" said "ahh ... I don't want to bother, surely they have to do ..." "I will to bring the beer "she said and smiled, I came to the living room and saw some papers on a table" DIVORCE IN PROCESS "they said" I'm Amelia "she said, I turned to see her and it was full of chocolate" nice to meet you ... Jay Halstead "I said and I grabbed his hand "you ... do you want to" she said and pointed at the chocolate "you know, I don't eat chocolate or ... candy" I said "really?" she said, I nodded "Amelia is bothering you" Hailey said coming back, she gave me the beer "no ... she's amazing" I said, Hailey saw the papers on the table and put them away, I just smiled ...

Hailey's POV "you're staying for dinner" I said "don't bother, Amelia's dad" said Jay "he ... doesn't live with us" I whispered "I'm sorry" I said and walked over "yes Jay stay ... Mommy likes you" said Amelia, I smiled "oh yeah? ... and how do you know" said Jay while tickling her "because you're the only man who lets in ... besides dad" she said laughing "well, how can I refuse then" said Jay, I nodded, the pizza arrived and the three of us sat down to eat ...

I looked for her" said Jay "okay" I said "I just wanted to ... see you" he said "I understand ... well you must have liked Vanessa, so she could tell you where I lived" I said laughing "ah ... she threatened me, but it's fine" he said laughing "she's my best friend ..." I said "I know ... she told me too" he said and smiled "Jay ..." said Amelia, we both turned to see "you want to play with me" said Amelia tenderly "Amelia ..." I said "sure" said Jay and went with her, they were both playing, he made her laugh....

Jay's POV "after playing with Amelia, we were on the couch, Hailey had her loaded, she stroked her head butt, you can see that she loved her very much," I can ask you something "I said, she nodded" why? you haven't told anyone "" I don't know ... I don't think the opportunity has been given, I'm going through a lot ... and I don't know "she said" I don't want to be reckless, but I saw that you are getting divorced, that's what Mike was talking about the other day "I asked , I saw how his look changed "sorry ... you know forget it" I said "no ... okay, yes, the trial is the other week" he said "I'm sorry" I said "it's complicated, I'm supposed to go through Amelia today ... but" "He's busy being an idiot" I said "yes ... he always makes an excuse" she said, Amelia yawned "you want to go to bed" she whispered, Amelia nodded, I stood up "don't go ... now I'll be back" she said "I know ... I can "I whispered, she nodded, I took her in my arms and we went upstairs...

"We got to Amelia's room, Hailey made the bed and I laid her down slowly, Hailey tucked her in and kissed her head" "Rest ... beautiful" she said "she is ... amazing" I whispered "thank you" Hailey said and smiled, we stayed there looking into our eyes "you have ..."she said and approached "What?" I said "you have chocolate ..." she said and pointed to my cheek, it was surely when I carried Amelia "can I.." she said, I nodded, I gently wiped my cheek and smiled, I saw her eyes and then her lips, my heart was pounding, I felt butterflies in the stomach "ready" she said, I got closer, we were only a few inches away, I was about to kiss her "Mhmmm..I think it's late" she said and walked away "yes ... you're right, you must be tired" I said and bit the lip, we went downstairs and I took my things "thanks for coming" she said "you're welcome ... and thanks for receiving me" I said "whenever you want" she said and smiled, I opened the door "see you tomorrow" I said, she nodded, I went out and closed the door, I leaned against the door "I think I'm falling in love" I said....
