More time. That's the other part of this. More time is good and all, but is more time really useful if Vasquez doesn't get what he wants out of him? He wants so much more, but he doesn't think that Faraday is a position to give that, which makes him feel wary about asking.

"So, here, I get his friendship, that's it. Then, when I go home, I lose him again," he says. Already, he feels dulled, because he sees how this works. It's bad for Faraday, but it's worse for him, because he has to live without it.
