Her health… She had put on a bit of weight lately, which was a good thing. Noah had been watching her belly in particular, though. If she was pregnant, she hadn’t begun to show yet–but Noah would notice
whenever she did.
Unless they got divorced before that happened.
The bell rang loudly, signifying the end of the first fight. Noah snapped his attention back to the group as Drake, Hannah, and Zoe turned to him.
Drake held up his empty beer bottle. “I need a refill,” he said, shaking the bottle slightly. “Anything for the ladies?”
Zoe shrugged. “Another beer for me.”
Drake nodded. “Beer for Zoe, and Hannah, I’m getting you a soft pretzel whether you like it or not. Got it?” Hannah giggled coyly, causing Noah to bristle. “Sure, I’ll take a pretzel. And a diet soda, too?”
No alcohol for Hannah, of course.
“Come with me, Noah?” Drake asked then. “I might need help carrying stuff.”
Despite the fact that being close to Drake made Noah want to vomit, he begrudgingly agreed. They walked over to the food stands together and Drake put in their order for three beers, a soda, and four soft pretzels.
“So.” Drake said as they waited for their food, “how’s everything going? With you and Hannah, I mean.”

Drake’s eyes widened into saucers. “Noah, what the hell?”
For a moment, the only sounds between them were that of their harsh breathing. Noah tightened his grip on Drake’s shirt, grateful for the chaotic atmosphere that kept others from paying them any mind. Fights outside the ring were commonplace here, after all.
“Look, man,” Drake finally breathed, holding his hands up in surrender, “Hannah is my friend. I’m just trying to help. That’s all ”
ahut his teeth, his eyes flashing with hatred. “Don’t try to
“Yeah, well, mind your own business.” bullshit me. I know your angle. And I know your reputation.”
