Bones sat on her bed studying Booth's every move. He was sound asleep next to her, his chest heaving up and down as a loud snore erupted from deep inside his throat. Bones resisted the urge to giggle especially because Booth swears he doesn't snore in his sleep. But then her rational side kicked in, she had to focus and think things out.
As she sat there in bed thinking, images of the steamy night Bones and Booth had just a few weeks ago on their honeymoon flashed through her mind. How am I going to tell Booth that I'm pregnant again?
Sure he took it well the first time around with Christine, but now right after the wedding might be too much. Will he still want to be with me? Will he want to have another child?
Before she knew it, Bones was heaving herself, but with sobs of panic. Booth started stirring in his sleep and before he even was fully awake he was already holding his wife in his arms.
"Bones? Bones what's wrong? Shhh. Shhh. It's okay. It's alright." He brushed his hand over her face, wiping the tears off of her cheeks. He looked straight into her eyes, as she shifted her own eyes in every direction besides Booth's, knowing that she would give in if she looked into his deep brown eyes.
"No. No, it's nothing Booth. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you. I'm fine, really I am."
"You don't look fine to me. There's something bothering you-"
"Booth, stop. It's all alright. I just got overwhelmed for a second, trust me."
"Fine, but as long as you are absolutely sure you are okay."
"Yes Booth I am. Now go to sleep."
She gave him a smile and her glossy blue eyes met his deep pleading eyes. Hesitantly, Booth repositioned himself and started to fall back asleep. But not before he whispered out something barely audible but loud enough for Bones to hear what he said.
"I love you Bones."
The next morning, Booth woke up before Bones and started making breakfast. As the pancakes browned on one side, Booth started thinking about what went on last night.
Something was wrong with Brennan, but as usual she built her walls up to keep herself from being vulnerable. She needs to let herself open up every once in a while, he thought.
Booth flipped the pancake still deep in thought when he was snapped out of it by the sound of Christine crying. Turning off the burner, Booth started the trip over towards his daughter's room. As he neared her crib, she stretched out her arms saying "Dada dada!" Booth scooped up his daughter into his arms, hugging her tight to him.
Sitting down in the rocking chair nearby, Booth sat down with her in his lap. Rocking her back and forth, Booth started playing with her.
"Christine, Christine where is my nose? Can you point to my nose?" A tiny pink finger made it's way out of her mouth and landed right on Booth's nose.
"Yes you did it! You did it Christine! That's daddy's nose. Yes it is. Can you point to daddy's ears?" This time she had a little bit of trouble finding his ears, but eventually got it.
"Good job baby, that's daddy's ears. You are so smart, yes you are. You're just like your mommy." Booth planted a big wet kiss on his daughters forehead and continued to rock her in the chair.
Brennan, who was in the hallway watching since Booth started playing with Christine, now entered the room and sat down next to her husband and two year old daughter. When Christine saw her mom, she stretched out her arms and almost fell forward into Brennan's arms.
"Hey baby, look who's happy to see mommy! Daddy made pancakes for us and we are going eat breakfast all together. How does that sound?" Brennan looked at Booth and smiled, letting him know that she's all right after her break down the night before.
Booth smiled back and said "Who is ready for some pancakes?" He jumped up and carefully helped up Bones as she struggled getting up on her own with Christine in her arms.
After breakfast, Bones and Booth both got Christine dressed and ready for daycare. Putting her in her crib for a few minutes, they went over to their bedroom to get ready themselves.
Once again, Bones was surveying Booth's every move. The way that his shoulders were down and his chin was relaxed, Booth seemed calm. She could tell him now.
"Booth?"
"Yes Bones? What's up?"
"I'm pregnant."
