Beth's jaw clenches.

She's starting to wish she'd left his coat in the snow after all. He's just being a jerk to be a jerk, and about something she really doesn't want to talk about to somebody like him. Somebody she just met, who's kind of an asshole, drunk, and maybe a little creepy. Who's going to be honest under these circumstances?

As contrary as she's feeling, she can't bring herself to snap No back at him. It feels like betraying Maggie, especially when she'd give anything to see her. Instead, she says nothing, just tries to pick up some speed so they aren't walking next to each other anymore. It's easier said than done, though, with snow this deep and a steepening incline.
