Ronan didn't need words to know that things hadn't gone well, but Atlas was very restrained, which was good considering the situation. However, that didn't mean that things couldn't change.
When Atlas announced that he was going home, Ronan squeezed Ben's leg and then walked up and around, sitting next to Atlas and preventing him from leaving. "You can stay here, or if you need to go somewhere, we can go. If you really want to go home alone, then it's fine too."
He looked at his lover for a moment, wondering what he wanted to do. "Is she still out there?" He wasn't sure if Ben wanted to talk to her or not, but that would be his choice.
