Noelle looked at him expressionlessly with a dark gaze.

With a sharp screech of the brakes, the car stopped by Noelle's side. The windows were rolled down, and Cedric's handsome face appeared. He said gently, "Get in." Noelle smirked. She knew that it would be him!

As she climbed into the car, Lucas' voice sounded out, saying, "Noelle, you can't leave with him."
