Stella nodded.
“Let’s go together.” With a smile on his face, Jeremy put his hands in his pockets and stood beside her in wait.
This made her uneasy.
Thinking back to how Matthew had been so curious about what happened last night, Stella felt her scalp tingle.
“I-“
The expression on her face as she began hinted to Jeremy what she was about to say.
