The Big Mistake
By Neko
Part 6
The guys had just finished up when Chris cell phone rang.
“Hello?” Chris asked. “Hey baby, are you ready?”
Bailey asked. “Yeah, I’m ready if you are. Where are we
doing this at?” Chris asked. “There is a restaurant down
the street from where you are right now. We’re going to meet him
there.” Bailey explained. “Excellent.” Chris said.
“One more thing.” Bailey said quickly before he rung up.
“What is it, is something wrong?” Chris asked. “No,
just promise me you won’t make a scene, this is a public place.”
Bailey said. “I promise, I’m just glad I’ll finally
know. Now don’t worry and I’ll see you in a little bit.”
Chris said then hung up.
When he got there, he found Bailey sitting alone. “I thought you
said he would be here.” Chris said joining her. “He will
be, he’s just running late.” She explained sliding closer
to him. He put his arm around her and then they waited. It wasn’t
long before a young man approached their table. Chris looked up and
smiled at him. “What are you doing here?” Chris asked with
a friendly smile. “Well, there is something we need to talk about.”
Justin said taking a seat. “Can’t it wait. we’re kind
of busy right now, we’re waiting on the mystery guy to get here.”
Chris said. Bailey took a hold of his hand. “Well he’s here
baby.” She said softly.
Chris looked back an forth between the two of them for a minute. “You’re
joking right?” Chris asked. They both just shook their heads.
“I’m sorry I wanted to tell you, but I was scared.”
Justin said finally. “Your the jerk who was just going to leave
her hanging, how could you do that? How could you be so stupid?”
Chris snapped. “I guess I deserve that, but I got the courage
to step up from you.” Justin explained. “Chris, please.
You have to understand now why I wouldn’t tell you. Justin is
ready to be a daddy, don’t scare him away.” Bailey begged.
Chris took a deep breathe, “I guess I see now what the whole secret
was about and I won’t do anything to scare him off, we work together
for crying out loud. I just thought you were smarter than that Justin.”
Chris said facing his friend.
“You and my mom, she wasn’t too happy either when I told
her. She made me realize what a big mistake I was making. I was a jerk
can you both forgive me?” Justin asked. Bailey smiled and cuddled
with Chris. “I guess we have to, if we’re going to make
this work.” Chris said. He pulled Bailey closer and kissed her
on the forehead. “What about the others?” Chris asked. “I
already took care of them, after you left I confessed everything to
them. They know now too.” Justin explained.
“So what happens now?” Bailey asked. “Well, love cup,
you are going to get as big as a house and have a baby, and we men are
going to look after you and the little one.” Chris explained.
“Do you know what it’s going to be yet?” Justin asked
sweetly. “No, it’s too early to tell, do you want to know?”
She asked. “No, not really, not until it’s here.”
Justin said. “So this is how it’s going to be, all three
of us as one big happy family?” Chris asked. “Yeah, you
said it yourself the baby needed it’s biological father.”
Bailey said.
“It does and that’s just what it’s going to get, but
I understand that Chris is going to be there too.” Justin said.
“Oh, I won’t get in the way of you and your child.”
Chris said quickly. “No it’s cool man. I had an awesome
Step-father growing up.” Justin explained. “So now everyone
knows?” Chris asked. “Well. not everyone. I still have to
tell Marisa and Kenya.” Bailey said. “You didn’t tell
them all of the details of our relationship, did you?’ Justin
asked worried. Bailey smiled, “Justin we’re girls and we
talk, but you’ll be fine I’m sure. I never said anything
bad.”
Justin shook his head, “I have a feeling that this is going to
be very interesting.” Chris smiled and patted him on the back.
“You’re so screwed dude.” Chris said as the started
to get up. “We got to go, but I’ll talk later, okay?”
Justin said as him and Chris were about to go back to the venue. “Yeah,
we can get together later. You boys have fun and don’t work too
hard.” Bailey said then left to go find her friends.
by the end of the day everyone who needed to know knew and things settled
down a little bit. Chris and Justin took turns taking Bailey to her
doctor appointments. When it came time to come up with names for the
baby Chris stayed out of it, and let Bailey and Justin make the finally
pick, which wasn’t easy. They couldn’t agree on anything.
Justin was a nervous wreck throughout the rest of the pregnancy and
of course the media had a hay day with the news. It took months for
the guys to get the media to get the facts straight.
