[He's a little disappointed, but amused as well. Ronan is usually bold and careful to seem unafraid of anything, even if a lot of it is bravado. Adam's slowly gotten better and better at picking those moments out. But even so, he rarely backs down like this - Adam isn't sure if he should feel victorious or not.
He knows they couldn't have done anything anyway, and they were wandering a little too close to areas they shouldn't. Not right now, at least. But even so, Adam would have liked to hear Ronan's answer. He'd have liked to have him stay close, too, and more.
But it's all right. It's for the best, and really Adam should head back to his room anyway. Let Ronan have his space, make sure they're both focused on the important things - keeping Gansey safe while this craziness is happening, for example.]
Right, of course. You're a good Catholic boy, and here I am leading you down a path of sin.

Hey - thanks. For helping with this.
