Youre welcome , Harley replied .

Though hed offered to pick them up , his true motive was simple he couldnt wait to see Noelle again .

If theres nothing else , Ill hang up now , Harley added .

Alright , Harley .

The idea sent her spirits soaring .

Shes only coming because Harley invited me first , Leia reassured herself .

Without me , she wouldnt even be on his radar .

She walked over with a bright smile and waved .
