"The floor has heating," Noelle replied.
"That's still not okay." Noelle stared at him for a moment, then finally muttered, "Fine." "What were you looking at just now?" "What have you been busy with lately?" They spoke at the stime, their voices overlapping.

"Good. Because there's something I want to tell you, too," Hendrix said. "But I haven't washed up yet, so can you wait a while longer?" "Can't you tellfirst?" "No." Hendrix had been so accommodating lately that Noelle had grown used to it. So, when he flat-out refused this time, she was momentarily caught off guard.
By then, Hendrix had already stood up and was heading toward the bathroom, giving Noelle no chance to argue further.

The next moment, however, Hendrix lay down beside her and wrapped his arms around her in spooning position. He rested his chin on his shoulder as he chuckled softly. "Are you mad?" Noelle didn't respond. She just turned around and tried to push him away. But Hendrix quickly grabbed her hand, his face suddenly close to hers. The ends of his hair brushed against her face, tickling her slightly.
