Imagine being married to Zack Addy and finding out you’re pregnant.
“Zack, come on, focus, this is a party and you are a million miles away right now,” Hodgins scolded, coming up behind the intern and taking a sip of his drink. “Talk to me, man, you’ve been out of it all day.”
Zack blinked at the notes in front of him, looking to his friend questioningly. “[f/n] has informed me that she is pregnant.” A slow grin spread over Hodgins’ face, “Zack, that’s amazing! Congratulations!” He gave the man’s shoulder a light smack. Still, Zack didn’t smile. On the contrary, a small frown creased his brow.
“I feel unprepared to raise a child,” he stated. “What if they do not like me? What if I am an unsatisfactory parent?”
“No one feels prepared to have a kid. That’s why pregnancies take nine months,” Hodgins reasoned, taking another sip of his drink, “It gives you a chance to learn and figure things out together. I’m sure [f/n]’s just as freaked out as you are. Just take it one step at a time. I’m sure you’ll be a great dad.”
A cautious smile tugged Zack’s lips, “Thank you for your encouragement.”
“That’s why I’m the King of the Lab.”
