Amycus couldn't help but be relieved that Cissy had let the subject drop as easily as she had. He finished his cigarette and slipped the pack back into his pocket, muttering a quick charm to dissipate the smoke and the lingering smell. He wanted to smoke another cigarette but he could always slip back out after he took Cissy home. Or up to his room and smoke a bit if Rabastan wasn't there. Or didn't care.
He listened calmly to what Cissy said about his relationship with Alecto, putting his arm around her in a quick hug when she'd finished. "You're probably right about that," he told her with a quick peck on the cheek before pulling his arm away. "Or at least I hope you are," he told her with a quick smile.
"I don't like keeping things from her. It doesn't feel right," he told Cissy not sure if he was making sense but he didn't know how else to say it.
"I know I do," he said quietly. "And I'm going to. As soon as I can figure out how."
