"Hey Gorgeous," Andrew greeted once he spotted her in the college's laundry room at the recreation building in the townhouse complex. She looked up from the screen of her laptop and smiled, her mood lifting.

"Hey," she greeted back as he set his laundry basket on the table next to hers and leaned down to give her a lingering peck on the lips.

"How's it going?" he asked.

"Okay. Danny won't be going here anymore."

"Oh?" Andrew asked with his eyebrow raised. "What happened."

"I told my dad to stop paying for her tuition," Alex replied simply.

"Wait, what?" he yelled in shock. "Your family was paying for her tuition?"

Alex nodded her head. "Yeah."

"So when did this happen?" he asked curiously, as he loaded the washer.

"About four O'clock this morning. That's when she came home, slammed the door and began to make a racket when she threw stuff inside a box," Alex explained with a sigh.

"As much as I like Danny too, that's a bitch thing to do," Andrew replied as he threw in the laundry soap and put the quarters inside the machine before setting it on the correct setting. He sat in the chair next to his girlfriend, took her hand and gave it a light squeeze with a small smile. Alex gave a sad smile back before leaning over and resting her head on his shoulder.

"You don't think I'm being a bitch for taking it away, do you?" she asked.

"Of course, not. That was an unfriend-like thing for her to do and if she can't treat someone who has done that much for her with respect then she doesn't deserve it."
