Just after eleven thirty that evening, head full of beer and fuzzy thoughts, Martin staggered across the square in the direction of Stanley Avenue. He laughed to himself: it had been so easy to get Tracy Tanner on side again tonight. Maybe he could get away with seeing her and Ruth for the time being. Ruth was stupid enough to think that he wouldn’t do it twice across her; silly bitch.

Without warning, someone grabbed him from behind and slammed him up against the wall between the post office and the bookies. He felt a fist in his stomach and doubled over.

‘What the fuck is wrong with you?’ Martin clutched his stomach as he looked up at Pete Bradley. ‘Did I spill a drink over you or something? If I did, sorry mate, I’m lashed.’

‘This has got nothing to do with the pub.’ Pete thumped him in the stomach again. ‘Keep away from Ruth Millington.’

‘Ruth – my Ruth? What do you want with her?’

‘She’s not your Ruth and she never will be. I’ve had enough of you scrounging off her. You’d better back off.’

Pete brought his hand up to strike Martin again. Martin blocked his arm and threw a punch of his own, but he missed completely, twirling round in a circle. As he staggered around, Pete hit him another time. He fell to the floor as another fist found his stomach.

In the quiet of the night, Pete spoke again. ‘I want you out of her house and I don’t want you bothering her again. Do you hear?’

‘I’ve probably got no fucking hearing left,’ muttered Martin, spitting blood onto the pavement.

‘There’ll be plenty more of that if I see you there in the morning.’
