It's probably the hardest phone call he's ever had to endure, and he shocks himself with the way he grabs a hold of the band-aid and yanks. He doesn't want to pretend with her. Honesty is the one thing he and Lucy and Rufus have all agreed upon ever since being stranded in the godforsaken woods of the 1700s, and it's the one thing he can offer her in this situation. 2x06 spoilers.

2x06 - Lyatt - "He saw two options. He could drown himself in the shower. That would be an excellent way out of it all. Or. He could find her, kiss her, make love to her. Claim her. Until she promised she would never belong to anyone else other than him. How could she? It was a sheer impossibility."

Nothing happened with Flynn, and nothing would ever happen. But she felt the need to attack right now. She didn't feel like playing the selfless, defensive girl who had her heart broken but wants to see the man she loves happy. She was hurt and finally allowed herself to lash out at him for it.

Spoilers for 2x05. Lucy was going to scream. Or collapse to the floor sobbing. Or maybe slap someone. Or a combination of all three. She thought convincing Jessica to choose Wyatt would be the most heartbreaking thing she ever did, but she was wrong.
