A/N this is the first fic I ever wrote and posted on the BY 2 years ago. It's long 29 chapters, I've decided to clean it up a little and repost it here. It might be a little OOC in places, but I hope you like it. Oh it has a twisty turn case, kind of creepy too!


Part 1

It was a dark stormy night and Brennan was lost in her own thoughts listening to the rain fall that she didn't hear the doorbell, it was only when she heard pounding and that familiar voice say "BONES! You in there?" that she got up from the chair by the window and opened the door.

"Booth what are you doing here?"

"I just came by to see if you had enough supplies for the worst storm D.C. has seen in a hundred years."

"What's in the box?"

'Oh ya know a flashlight, extra batteries, candles, matches, and a weather radio since you still don't have a TV …. Pie"

"I don't like my…"

"Fruit cooked I know, that's why I brought Peanut Butter pie no fruit to be found!"

"Booth, why did you really come over? I know it wasn't to see if I had adequate supplies."

"I came over to make sure you were all right. Are you all right Bones?"

"Yes, of course I am, why wouldn't I be?"

"Because today we had to tell a young boy that his father was dead and his mother and older brother are still missing. I thought maybe that brought up some memories for you."

"The cases are different; Billy's parents were only gone 2 weeks not 15 years before he found out what happened to one of them."

"The case is different yes, but the emotions are the same."

"I just keep thinking that if someone had been doing what we do 22 years ago maybe it wouldn't have taken me 15 years to know what happened. I don't remember what my mother was like much anymore, Booth .I got out a copy of the video she made me on my 16th Birthday tonight so I could remember."

"It's ok Bones How about some pie?"

Just then the lights when out….
