Chapter five
"So how'd you sleep last night Hailey?" Audrey asked the babysitter. They were both in the kitchen. Megan was sitting at the table pouring her and Hailey a glass of orange juice.
"It was fine. I also got to meet your son's, which was an experience. Thanks Megs." Megan put her glass on the counter as she put up the juice. She only listened half-heartedly.
"Well it's nice you got to meet them. I just think it's better if you don't get to know them too well, they can get someone in a lot of trouble if you don't know what they are really like." Audrey smiled and looked down at the pancake she was cooking.
"I know them good enough. I have some classes with Josh, and everywhere you go in Belleview you always hear about Drake Parker. I don't really talk to them that much though." Megan sat at the table and read her book getting more interested in the conversation.
"Well I was talking to Mindy and it sounds like you two are good friends." Audrey said and put a chocolate pancake on Hailey's plate.
"Yeah, me and Mindy have known each other for about six years. She's one of my closest friends."
"That's good that you two are so close I was beginning to think that Josh had taken her away from all of her friends." They both laughed at Audrey's comment. At that time the boys walked into the kitchen like walking zombies. "Look who finally got out of bed. You boys want some pancakes?" They got to the table and groaned as they laid their heads back down. "I'll take that as a yes."
"Well I have to get home. I'll see you later Megs. Thanks again for breakfast Mrs. Nichols." Hailey walked out of the kitchen and out the front door.
"Mom, where's my pancakes?" Megan and Audrey laughed at Josh as he mumbled in his sleep.
