I'm glad he is going to explain because it will save her bugging the heck out of him lol. Yeah I kinda pictured him doing the same, at least with the acting like he is going to hurt her. I think she can kind of the little bit of light in him, as weird as that sounds. Or can really withstand being hurt for that matter, I can picture her going a little bit coocoo when Adam leaves her. 

Haha I have a way of making characters that seem to do that to yours don't I? XD
