Noah kept his word. The next morning, he called Bryan Garris on the phone to apologize. I stayed around for the first part of the conversation hoping it would go well but then decided to go make some coffee and give Noah privacy. At the end of the day it was between him and Bryan and I didn't want to be in the middle.
As I was making both Noah and I a cup, Noah came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me.
"Hi." I smiled and turned kissing his cheek since he was resting his chin on my shoulder.
"Hi. Is one of those cups for me?"
"Nope. They're both mine. Get lost." I giggled.
"Wow!" He scoffed but couldn't help but to smirk. "You're so fricking rude." He chuckled. I giggled and grab a coffee mug in my hands then turned around to face him.
"I GUESS you can have this one." I smiled and he grinned then leaned in and kissed me.
"Thank you." He whispered against my lips then took a sip from the mug, making a contented humming sound.
"Why is it always so much better when you make it."
"Because your wife is just the best." I shrugged and he smiled.
"I can't even argue with that." He took another sip of coffee then set it on the counter behind me, then he pulled me into him again.
"How did the phone call go?" The suspense was killing me but I was trying not to pry. But Noah's calm demeanor had me assuming they ended on a positive note...hopefully.
"Well, of course he was still a little ticked off at me but I just told him how I felt."
"And what's that?" I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Just that I know you guys are friends but i just think he was kind of overstepping his boundaries last night and it was uncomfortable for me to see." I sighed a little disagreeing, thinking I always hug friends, but I didn't want to start another fight. Noah had always naturally been territorial so it was partly expected and I should have known better in the first place. "But," he continued, "he was apologetic and insisted he didn't mean for it to come off any type of way. He's an okay dude I guess..."
I rubbed Noah's chest knowing this was at least a step in the right direction and I was just content with him apologizing.
"I told you, Noah he's not like that at all. We are strictly homies...we got to be friends just hanging out over at Angela's a lot and you already knew I'm a fan of Knocked Loose but that's it. And you guys have so much in common...I think you would really get a long and I could see you being friends. He's a very sincere person and he's honestly just a friend. Nothing more." Noah looked down like he was processing my words and I put my hands on his face to make him look at me.
"And why would I ever want anyone else when I'm married to the most talented, handsome, funny, smartest man in the universe? That would be fucking stupid of me. I love you with everything in me and the thought of anyone else but you never crossed my mind, even during our break up."
