[He pauses, on the brink of telling her everything but then - those particular secrets are not strictly his to tell either. He decides against it..]
No, nothing's the matter. I was just making sure you were okay. I'm sorry if my concern annoys you...
[He knows this is going badly but then maybe if she is angry she might blurt something out - or he might just get a better sense of what it is exactly she is hiding about Logan. For he is more sure than ever that Lily knows more than she is admitting...and may even have her own worries about him]
I've gotta run. Look, I didn't mean to get on your nerves about anything, or sound whiny. If everything's cool, I'm cool...
[He stands up to leave but can't help but add...]
I didn't realise it would hurt this much, Lil. Or that I would feel like smashing the bloke's face in when I saw him even though I'm not dumb enough actually to try it. A bloke can tell, Lily. He's a dangerous man. And he's got a temper. Just so you know, if ever things turned bad and he does anything - anything- to upset you...you let me know. I'd take a beating for you, you know...any day...it would be worth it...Stay in touch, hey? Call me anytime...
