Warren's offer warmed Brice's belly, but he just smiled and shrugged. "I've done my best when no one knows what I'm doing. Even at school, no one knows. So keep it quiet, please." It wasn't a no, but it definitely wasn't a yes, even if Brice appreciated the sentiment. It did feel nice to share his secret with someone, and it being Warren, who was - ironically - warming to it, gave Brice hope.
