Hendrix drove to Galaxy Grove.

Noelle had expected him to come, so when she opened the door, she didn't look the slightest bit surprised.

Hendrix smirked. "You think I'm afraid of him?"

"I didn't think much of it, but after all, he's my boyfriend. The way you're acting so self-righteous doesn't seem quite appropriate, either."

As she spoke, Noelle had already turned around. "Come in."

Hendrix pressed his lips together and, in the end, followed her inside.
