Harlan waited anxiously to hear Axel's answer, hoping not to feel the hurt he had felt at not being deemed a friend wouldn't be deepened. Instead, he felt like he got the surprise of his life! Well, nearly, or was it on even footing with the idea of actually starting to date Jayde? Anyway, it had him laughing aloud with pure joy to hear Axel call him a friend!

It made Harlan so happy! He jumped to his feet and danced a little private jig, before coming to a halt so he could actually answer his friend. "Man, hearing you say that makes me so happy! But ... why do you think you can't be friends with Fane? Is it because you two are such polar opposites?" Harlan moved to his clothes, and started to gather them up so he could get dressed.
