When Aimee said that he got beat up pretty badly, she assumed it meant he won the match since he wasn't dead. It was likely Noah almost lost a brother that day.

There was a burden in her heart for Ryon as Aimee mentioned his fiancee. There was a shrill spike in her of guilt as Aimee mentioned that they never had luck with their bondmates. Her correction relieved it, but it was too late to not affect her. The reaction was small, hardly noticeable, particularly with thoughts of her mother on her mind, but it was there. She felt guilty how she had added to the perception that they didn't have good luck with their bondmates, even if she had corrected to say the first ones. 

It was only Noah's goofy smiles that roused her from her silent gloom, making a game out of sliding the carmel back and forth along his cheek by pressing on either side of it. When he offered her a candy, immense joy flooded their bond, yet when he stole it away from her, it was like her world was shattered. She sat there stunned for a moment until she realized he was playing with her and then would grasp for it again. After the second time, she would be diving across his lap to grab his arm and even would go so far as to even bite his knuckle playfully until he gave up all the sweets. He was seeing her competitive side, but it was all in fun.
