Kyle takes a long sip of his coffee and stands as Alex is returning. He gives her an easier grin when her question catches him off guard again. Damn it. If she's worried about him, he's obviously doing something wrong. He pauses for a moment, dropping his head and thinking, giving her question proper weight. Then he nods, lifting his eyes to her as he dons an authentic smile. "I'm good. Last night.. I didn't sleep too well. That's all."
He gives her a pointed look as he says it, enough to emphasize without overdoing it. Either she'll follow what he's saying and realize he's talking about nightmares or she won't and hopefully will have missed the look entirely. Kyle doesn't need to tell her about the rave to admit he's a little shaken up.
Before she has much chance to respond, he moves over to put his half-full cup in the bin, buying them both a few seconds to breathe. Then he returns with the same soft smile, tilting his head towards the door. "You ready?"
