Guy hadn't seen Michael for a few days since his birthday. There was nothing odd about that. So when came by his and Enjolras' room, he hadn't expected to be told that Michael had vanished. His reaction had therefore been an uncommited 'oh' and with that he left the room and the Compound.
He went straight to Brian to see if he had heard about it already. After the knock on the door had not been answered, Guy walked in. There he found that Brian probably hadn't heard of Michael's departure. Rather, the man had probably left as well. His bed was missing. His drugs he had left on the island. Good for something after all.
It was a methodical rush, in a way. After the 'oh' something automatic had been started that had kept his face blank and his actions strangely controlled. He had drunk the content of the flask he carried with him without tasting it, smoked the remainder of his cigarette without feeling it.
It wasn't until he closed the door to his hut, where he knew he was alone, that he smashed the flask to the wall and put his hands to his face.
