The message is more reassuring than he'd like to admit; he doesn't regret at all the fact that he reads it alone in his bunk, thinking hazily of the weight of Amos' arm catching him up as he began to lose his balance.
Gideon doesn't go to find Amos until he's certain he's fully awake. Under the circumstances, he'd prefer not to learn the details of their escape from Mars' grasp while still fighting sleepiness. On his way to the other man's bunk, however, he's stopped by Holden--and has the eerie sense that the captain might have been waiting for him to emerge--and caught up in a conversation.
By the time he actually cracks Amos' door and peers inside, he's got the general gist of what happened.
