Chapter Six: Breaking the News
While the guys were playing video games, Mike's cell phone was playing Stars Tonight by Lady Antebellum, which was signalling that Haylie was calling it.
"What the heck does Haylie want?" Mike asked as he answered the phone. "Hey Haylie, what's up?"
"There's something that I got to tell you." Haylie automatically said.
"What do you mean Haylie? Are you leaving me?" Mike asked.
"No, you idiot. But what I'm going to tell you is probably going to make you leave me." Haylie replied.
"What is it Haylie, you know you could tell me anything and everything." Mike said.
"Alright, well, how could I say this...in nine months you're going to be a father." Haylie confessed.
Nothing on Mike's end.
"Mike, Mike are you there?" Haylie asked.
.Josh took Mike's phone from his hand, placed it against his ear and said, "Uh Haylie, whatever the hell you just said just made Mike faint…and what did you say anyways?" Josh asked.
"That I was pregnant and of course he's going to be a father, and of course that makes you an uncle Josh." Haylie said.
There was more silent before Josh said, "Sweet! I'm going to be an uncle! Can I help you name the kid?"
"You're seriously going to help me name the kid, doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl?" Haylie asked.
"Yeah—and if it's a boy, can you name it Josh Joseph Mizanin?" Josh asked.
"Um, yeah, no chance in hell am I going to name it after you." Haylie replied.
