It was a surprise to hear Ezra didn't actually have any prices. He understood money was worth different amounts to different people, but even then, it still felt weird to just name his own price. He was fairly well off and received a few benefits for losing his wife, so he had money. He wondered if he looked poor to Ezra, if that was why he didn't say what he really charged, or maybe he felt sorry for him. He didn't want to receive pity in this kind of way. He might not be able to keep up a full-time job and look after his kid but that didn't mean he couldn't pay his bills. Besides, there were other people who would actually need this more than he did.<br/><br/>"How about... $15 an hour?" Adrian suggested. It was a pretty average price compared to the other babysitters he'd talked to. He might throw in a couple of extra dollars, to make up for the people who took advantage of how sweet this kid was. No way did he think he would be using drugs, not when he didn't even know where his next paycheck was coming from. He might have to turn to prostitution though, but Adrian didn't actually think that would happen. It didn't even cross his mind someone like this would be involved in anything shady at all.<br/><br/>"It's really kind of you to offer that kind of service, but I will honestly pay whatever you feel is right. Whatever you need to pay your bills." And Adrian meant that.
