[Teddy had seen the message early on, and he felt a wave of exasperation and worry. It's no different from going door to door and apologizing like Billy did earlier, but - Teddy had wanted to be there when he made his journal message. Offer support, talk to him in between replies...
He almost goes home right then. But seeing Billy talk, and seeing the replies, the fact that several people had decided to go visit him... Teddy would rather not barge in on a conversation between the two of them.
So he stays. The sun's setting, and Optimus is wearing down, but he stays outside anyway.
It's night time by the time Teddy and OP get home. Teddy knocks first, then unlocks the door and steps inside, allowing Optimus to sidestep around him and go straight to Billy. Teddy, meanwhile, leans back against the door frame, arms crossed and an eyebrow raised, though the small, half smile lets him know that he's not really mad.]
Hey... You couldn't have waited for me? [He raises is journal, open on Billy's post.]
