they laughed at the same time as the enormity of everything became one more thing they could handle if they did it together.
     
     
    The chat with Hayley didn’t go so well. They’d left it until they were in the car on the way to the dress shop.
    “He’s sixteen,” Jack said for the third time in the conversation.
    “Not helping,” Riley muttered under his breath.
    Jack shot him a look that spoke volumes.
    “He’s really nice,” Hayley said again.
    That was also the third time of saying, and this conversation really wasn’t going anywhere. Riley decided that this round-in-circles talking about things in an oblique way wasn’t working, and decided to come straight to the point.
    “We’re worried that he’ll want to have sex with you,” he said, firm and direct.
    Silence.
    Complete and utter silence. Riley cringed, Jack shot him a look that said What the fuck?
    “Daaaad,” Hayley said with that tone only a teenage girl could get right. “I won’t do that.”
    Jack cleared his throat. “Believe me, sweetheart, I know exactly what a sixteen-year-old boy wants.”
    “Me too,” Riley added.
    Hayley sighed. “I know you both do, and I know what I want, and anyway, Logan told me way before that Cory is more interested in boys than me.”
    That was a bombshell which rendered both men silent.
    “Oh,” Riley finally said. “And that’s okay with you?” He looked at Jack, who was refusing to look at him, instead focusing on the road. Jack wore a faint smile, and Riley imagined there was a story there. “Spit it out,” he ordered.
    “I was fourteen, had this huge crush on this guy in Josh’s year, so I got myself invited as a plus-one with this girl—Tiffany, I think her name was.”
    Hayley giggled. “See, Pappa’s okay with it.”
    “I didn’t say that,” Jack said.
    Riley shook his head. The minute Jack had opened his mouth with the Tiffany story, they had lost control of this. “Just be careful. We’ll be there to drop you and pick you up.”
    He waited for some kind of argument, but Hayley sounded a little puzzled when she replied.
    “Of course you will be,” she said. “I’m way too young to go home on my own.”
    Out of the mouths of babes… Riley thought. What could he say? Hayley was in a brave new world, and she knew her own mind even at such a young age. Not for the first time, he wondered if she’d always been so levelheaded. He wished her mom were still here to ask.
    They arrived at Alison Catterill’s, a smart one-of-a-kind type boutique outside the city. Alison herself was a cheerful young woman with gorgeous long platinum hair and violet eyes. She was chirpy and evidently hyped up on life. Everything was stunning and beautiful and lovely and rainbows. In her world, anyway.
    Money was a big part of Hayley’s life, yet she never asked for material things. Yes, she was at private school, but that was a safety concern. Other than that, she was far from what Riley had expected of a typical teen. But this dress? She was a mess of anxiety and excitement that had Riley concerned about what was going on in their daughter’s head.
    “And this one.” Alison interrupted his thoughts.
    He looked up at a dress he could only describe as puke green. Maybe it looks better on .
    “I’m not sure about that one,” Hayley said. She was getting more confident with each dress. Alison nodded in agreement, then clearly had a eureka moment. She disappeared and came back with a sapphire dress made of not a lot of material to Riley’s eyes.
    “You’re so slim, sweetheart. This is the smallest size we have, but I can certainly alter it so it will fit you like a glove.”
    Riley looked at Hayley critically. She had sprouted recently, at least a couple of inches since Christmas. If she inherited his genes, then she’d be tall, but as she stretched up, she appeared to be going in around the middle. Jack had commented on it last week. Only here, standing next to a very slim Alison, Hayley looked
