"I'm fine, Joe," Logan lied, the forced smile easier now. "Everything will be okay in the end."

And that he really did believe... at least for everyone else. Sure, Neil would be upset for a while, but eventually he'd find someone better... someone who deserved him. And Logan? We;;, Logan was pretty sure he'd find a way to disappear. And yeah, alright, he knew by now that it would upset Joe, but Joe had Billy, so it wasn't like he'd be alone.

See? Everything would be just fine.
