Now was not the time to remind him he had got married to a woman he had met for the first time less than a year ago then? "You were FAR from dishonourable." Belle reassured him, although she wasn't sure that would count for much, and most of the things she could tell him would make it worse in their own way. Somehow teen!Nox didn't seem up to hearing about Elle's pregnancy scare by him, or the fact they ended up in bed on their very first date, even if he did stop them going too far.
"Aaaw thank you, but I have to say you have a lot of faith in me and my skills or persuasion." Belle laughed, then realised how that sounded. "Not THAT kind of persuasion. Your parents were lovely, and they seemed to enjoy the wedding, as did Hesper. It was really nice to meet them all." There! That was safe hopefully. "You'e coping well with all of this, not that I'm too surprised. If anyone can it's you."
