It's rare that someone has to be the voice of reason for Alec. Usually he's the one advising caution and that reminds him that he needs to think. "I know." Letting out a frustrated sigh, he manages an apologetic smile. "Sorry. There's someone waiting for me. Makes this hard."

Which isn't something he likes admitting when he has no idea what kind of danger they might be in but it's a believable excuse for his behavior. He can't be the only one that got kidnapped that wanted to be back with their loved ones. "Good idea." In theory but Alec's still going to be cautious.
