BROOKE POV
We walk into lorenzos bar, me and Joey went to find out the sex of the baby today, now we’ve came by to tell Nate and we’re taking him to Joeys parents with the us.
The bar is fairly quiet for 1pm on a Saturday afternoon but I don’t miss the red hair and one of my dresses sitting on the stool at the bar. “you have got to be fucking kidding me.” That surprisingly was Joey. He told me about his plan to make Georgia think Mia and Nate were together, I’m pretty sure Joey is secretly hoping they will get together as a matter of fact.
We make our way over to the bar “what’s up bro, I see Joe Goldberg is still hounding you” I let out an un attractive snort at the you reference, considering I just got Joey to watch it in the last 2 weeks. Nate gives us a smile when he sees us, “so?” I look at Joey with a grin and before I can say anything Joey blurts it out, “it’s a boy! I’m having a boy, sorry we’re having a boy. Oh my god it’s a boy, dude you have to help me I don’t know how to be a boy.” Nate sniggers and comes around the bar to hug us both, “congratulations, you will both be wonderful parents. And you know Mia and I will be happy to babysit our nephew anytime” his face looks slightly panicked for a second before he subtly nods his head in Georgias direction as if he said that just for her benefit.
“well, well, look who it is, how irresponsible of you to be in a bar. You’re looking very chubby at the moment Brooke.” I look at her in confusion and disbelief, “I’m pregnant you ignorant leech, of course I look chubby I’m carrying a human around with me.” Joey stands behind me rubbing my shoulders like a referee preparing me for a fight, while Nate stands to the side trying not to laugh. Georgia comes towards me “you bitch” when someone comes from the side and gets in between us, “I highly fucking doubt it” oh its Mia, wait where did Mia come from?
Georgia sniggers “aw look, Brookes new friend the slut, coming to her rescue.” She looks around Mia to Nate “you know where I am if you want a real woman handsome, not this common skank” it happens before any of us can react, Mias hand flys across Georgias face before Nate grabs her around the waist and moves her out of the way. He looks at Georgia, “listen, you’ve been coming here for a while now and quite frankly love, it’s fucking creepy. Now, I certainly won’t condone you attacking a pregnant woman and I won’t have you attacking my girlfriend either, so I think it’s best you leave and don’t come back.” She stands there with her mouth open.
Mia speaks up “you heard him, now off ya fuck.” Joey then can’t help himself but join in, “you heard them bitch, to quote the great Eleanor Shellstrop, ‘Ya basic’ buh bye.”
I smile to myself as Georgia leaves the bar in a huff. Yep, I love my new crazy family, and my son is going to be so loved and protected.
