Disclaimer: I own nothing except for Skye and her past as well as the story line.

Don't worry will be B&B later.

I always wondered what a home was. I mean I never lived in one.

They say a home is what makes a family, but what if the family it's trying to make just isn't their any more. For as long as I can remember I have lived with my dad, I've very really seen or heard from my mum she left before I could even talk. That's probably what tore this family apart. I was the youngest of three; Katelyn, Reid and me, Skye Neart meaning strength in Irish. I was the baby of the family and if anyone looked after me it was Reid, we stuck with each other through thick and thin. Reid and I have always been close, only 2 years separating us, while Katelyn was cold and vicious. Everything was fine other than a few beatings from dad, Reid and I survived.

That all stopped when Reid died. I had no one to protect me from dad and his drunken beatings. So I ran away packed my stuff and the money Reid left me and ran it. I know kind of stupid on my part; 14 years old and no place to stay. Like I said before I've never had a home that was till I meet Temperance Brennan.

It was mid July only a couple of weeks since I ran away. I was doing alright found a B&B at a cheap price and convinced the manager of 'The Royal Diner' to give me a job to pay the rent on my room. I saw the FBI dude and his partner come in quite often, the other waiters always gossiping about whether they were a couple or not.

That wasn't how I meet them however. I was walking back to the B&B when this foul stench reached my nose, me being my curious self went to investigate. What I found will be forever imprinted in my mind.

I saw the grossest thing I've ever seen in my fourteen years, a decomposing body with rats and maggots crawling and wriggling all over it. As you can probably imagine the first thing I did was puke! Hey I'm a kid leave off. Anyway once I could look at the body without retching my guts up I dialled 911. I contacted the police then thought about calling an ambulance as I'm sure with the amount of heaving I was doing I'd probably throw up most of my internal organs, but decided against it. Surprisingly the FBI dude and his partner showed up before the cop.

They introduced them selves as Seeley Booth and Temperance Brennan.

"I'm Skye and dead dude over there I don't know about as I didn't really want to see if he had any ID" they both chuckle and once again my amazing ice breaker tricks work.

"So Skye, how did you find dead dude over there?" Agent Booth asks amusement added to his voice when he said dead dude.

"Actually Booth it's a Dudette." Interrupts his partner who has been examining the gross yet now that I look at the slightly call remains

"I was walking home when I was attacked by dudette's smell. Haven't dead bodies heard of deodorant." This gets another series of chuckles even from the Doctor.
