Can she not hear his thoughts or is she just all emotional about what Alicia said to her?
Of course I want to know who was with the grandma too ... was it maybe someone who's dead that he doesn't know is dead? Hmm ... a lot of possibilities there.
And now there's going to be more drama between them looks like from the last paragraph. Although I have a feeling they still won't be able to keep their hands off one another either!
The dinner with the mom should be interesting though ...
