Hey guys, first time Bones fanfic writer. Hope you like it!

"Sweetie, I'm getting married!" Angela excitedly bounced into Brennan's office.

"I don't know what that means. You're already married, Ange."

Angela flopped down on the couch. "I know, but I want a real wedding. I love Hodgins and we should properly celebrate it. I want my dad to walk me down the aisle. Well, again. You have to be my maid of honor. Say yes, or I'm cancelling this whole thing. I need you."

Brennan looked up and smiled. It felt like it had been a while since she was needed. "Of course, I will. We're sisters, right?" Brennan asked in a hopeful voice.

Angela smiled warmly at her best friend. She could see the last few days of hurt all over Brennan's face.

"That's right, Bren. Sisters." Brennan smiled.

Angela shot up excitedly, breaking the silence. "Okay, lunch at the diner to plan! One o'clock! We don't have a lot of time!"

Angela walked into the diner and immediately spotted Booth and Hannah sitting in the seats he and Brennan used to occupy.

It had felt like so much time had passed. Things had changed since they all got back. Some in a good way. Brennan finally had opened up to Angela about her feelings for Booth. But the last case, the one where the victim was so much like Brennan - it scared even Angela. It really hit Brennan hard. But she opened up a little. She told Angela about that night on the steps of the Hoover and how sad it made her to think about everyday. As sad as it was, it felt like a positive change for Brennan, even though her and Booth hadn't really spoken much since Brennan's confession of missing her chance.

Angela couldn't remember when she started giving Booth the cold shoulder. She wasn't even sure why. He didn't do anything wrong. And she liked Hannah. It just all seemed so...wrong.

Angela walked up to Booth and Hannah's table.

"Hey guys."

Hannah spoke first and was clearly more excited to see Angela than Booth was.

"Hi Angela! You have to come by our place again soon."

"Hi Hannah. Hey Booth." Angela smiled.

"Hey Ange. Waiting for Hodgins?"

"No, actually. Brennan's meeting me for lunch."

At the mention of her name Booth looked up. His eyes met Angela's and she felt his sadness wash over her. Booth's eyes never left Angela's. Hannah didn't seem to notice.

"That's good. Bones forgets to eat sometimes."

Angela stared back. Defiant. "Yeah, I know. I've got it covered."

Hannah stood up. "Seeley, I'm going to go pay our bill. Angela, say hi to Temperance for me. Girls night soon?"

Angela's eyes never left Booth's. "You got it, Hannah"

When Hannah was out of earshot he spoke.

"Ange, how...how is Bones doing?"

"You work with her everyday, Booth." She was baiting him. She didn't like behaving that way but she couldn't help it.

He sighed. "Angela..." Her name came out as a warning, but it quickly faded. He had no response. He stood.

"I heard about the wedding. You're going to make a beautiful bride. Again," he said with a half-smile.

Angela laughed. "Yeah, well, you're going to make a handsome best man. Again." Booth's eyes widened.

"Don't look at me like that, G-Man. Jack wants you by his side for wedding number two. Take it up with him."

Booth stood. "Angela, I don't think that's a good idea..."

Her voice came from behind him. "What's not a good idea?"

He turned around to see Bones, her piercing blue eyes staring through him. She'd tell him that's not possible. She'd say "Booth, you can't see through the human body, it's scientifically impossible. Unless of course you are talking about an X-Ray..." In another time she would say that. She doesn't say those things anymore.

"Nothing, Sweetie. Ready to plan?" Angela clapped.

"Yeah, I should go." Booth looked at Brennan and tried to smile. "Hanna's waiting."
