Chapter one: A field trip
Things in life aren't always what they seem to be. In science things are black or white , right or wrong. But life is messy and never clear cut. My life was on track. I went to work, came home, talked to a few friends and then started my day again. I had no family or so I thought. That was until the field trip that changed my life forever. Booth has always told me there is more than one kind of family and now I know what he was meaning.
September 2011 was when Parker Booth found out his class would be going to the Jeffersonian for a field trip. Dr. Bones worked there and Parker found himself hoping that he would run into her while he was there. Never in his wildest dreams did he see what was coming.
"Class, stay with your buddy. We're ready to start the tours when you are." The teacher told the class before turning to the tour guide, whom much to Parker's surprise remembered him.
"Parker, right?" The young guide asked looking at him.
"Yes" Not knowing what else to say to the man.
"Haven't seen you lately. Glad you're here today. I think Dr. Brennan and her team are in the lab." The young guide like most of the staff at the museum knew to be nice to Booth's son.
"Thank you" Parker answered before the tour started. They had made it about half way through the first of the three areas when Parker heard a few of the guys behind him talking.
"Man, look at that woman. Wouldn't you like to have some time with her?" The others agreed and added in a comment or two about how nice her chest and rear were. Not thinking anything of it, Parker just went on like he didn't hear them. That was until the woman they were talking about stepped up to them.
"This is one of the most complete finds of a local town of the time." The tour guide paused seeing one of the Brennan/Booth team members approaching the group.
"Little Booth, is that you?" Angela was saying not ten feet away from him.
"Hey, aunt Angela." Parker was happy to see his aunt but not happy to be singled out.
"Honey, I didn't know that your class was coming today. Your dad is in the lab would you like for me to let him know you're here?" Parker knew she was trying to be nice but she was making it hard for him to fit in with his class right now and when his dad got here it would make it that much harder. He may be young but he could see that his teacher had the hots for his dad.
"I guess so." Angela didn't pick up on the tone in his voice as she left, promising to return soon. The tour continued.
There were four men that had been standing away from the group of children and now watched with great interest to know who this young man's father was. The smile that crossed their faces when they saw Special Agent Seeley Booth and Dr. Brennan come around the corner was anything but friendly. The four turned and left the room but stayed close by to hear what was going on. Booth was happy to see his son for any reason and this was no exception.
"Buddy, I didn't know you would be here today." Booth was now standing beside his son, whispering as the young guide nodded to him and Bones but kept on with his tour.
"It's a field trip, dad. Hello, Dr. Bones." Parker's smile was once again lighting up his face at seeing her walking close to his dad's side. He wanted his dad to be happy and he like most of the team or family as he had started to think of them, all knew who would make him that way.
"Mr. Booth, how are you today?" Miss Berry asked, joining them at the rear of the group. She had seen the partners enter the room but had not been able to make her way over to them until then.
"I'm fine thank you for asking, Miss Berry." Booth made nice with her but it just fed her flirting with him. He was a one woman man. Even if at the time the one woman didn't know it.
"How long will the class be spending here today, Miss Berry?" Booth asked,trying to move away from her touching his arm without being rude.
"We will be leaving at almost two pm to head back. Do you think we could do lunch? And maybe talk about how well Parker here is doing?" The whole time she was talking, Booth, Bones, and Parker noticed that Miss Berry wouldn't let go of Booth's arm.
"I will have to see if we're back or not." He told her before bending down to his son's level.
"Bud, Bones and I have to run down a lead. If we can make it back, we'll have lunch with you, okay?" He said not bothering to look up at the teacher's huff sound. Bones tried not to laugh as Parker hugged his dad and then huged her. Standing Booth smiled down at his son then placed his hand on the small of her back to lead her back out the door.
The four men had heard enough to know who Parker Booth was and a plan was forming in their heads. A plan they knew would help with two things: get the FBI agent off their backs and make him pay for the hurt they went through at the same time. Miss Berry was sitting down with the kids in front of her, talking with each other for a few minutes before they started looking at the second of the three exhibits for the day. One of the men approached her.
"I'm sorry Miss but I couldn't help but noticed how mean your boyfriend seemed to be towards you. Are you alright?" He wanted to get her on their side or at least out of the way to set their plan into action.
"He isn't my boyfriend but thanks." She told the kind man.
"But you wish he was, right?" She couldn't lie and say no, so she didn't say anything.
"I know of a way you can get him with you and keep his mind off that lady he was with." The man's words shouldn't have intrigued her but they did. She wanted Booth and if he would give her the chance, he would want her too.
"What do I have to do?" She asked the man not knowing what the true nature of the plan was for.
"Simple. When Dr. Brennan and he join you for lunch make sure they think my friends and I are with your group. Then, get them to take the class on a tour of the lab. We'll do the rest. By the end of the day he will be all yours." The man had a smile on his face and the woman beside him was lost in thought of all that she could do with a hunk like Booth. Against her better judgment she agreed to the deal. It was almost an hour later when the plan was set into action.
Getting the class into the lab had been easy. All she had to do was have Parker ask if they could see it, then poof they were in the lab. Miss Berry sat awaiting her time with Booth. Her joy was short lived when within minutes an alarm was going off and the lab doors were closing and locking them in. The four men that had come in with them turned to her and laughed. It was then that she knew that she had been wrong. Just how wrong she was yet to find out.
"What is going on, Dr. B?" Hodgins was calling her on her phone not being ableto get into the lab.
"I'm not sure. Parker's class came in to look at the lab and then we're in lockdown. I can't get anything open." Her words were clam but her eyes were filled with panic. After the time she and Hodgins had been taken by the Grave Digger,she had developed a sense of claustrophobia, not that she'd told anyone.
"Bones, what's going on? Why is the lab locked up?" Booth was yelling as he banged against the door. The group of men had meant to get him in the lab before the doors closed but this made things all the more fun for them. They had two of the people that mattered most to him with them and him locked outside without being able to do anything about it. This was turning out to be a great day.
"I don't know, Booth. The moment I entered the lab it went into lockdown. Is everyone out there alright?" Her voice gave nothing away and Booth looked to see who was out of the lab and who might still be able to help her. Looking around he noticed that Cam, Sweets, Daisy, Hodgins, and Angela were all with him. That meant that if there were squints in the lab, he couldn't get them to do much to help. Realizing that he had yet to answer her question,he quickly answered her.
"We're fine out her, Bones. Cam's going to see if she can get the over ride code to work." Booth was still standing at the door, trying to see the kids in the room. In all honesty, he was looking for Parker but he would never tell any one that…maybe Bones.
"I wouldn't try that if I were you, Agent Booth. Unless you want these kids to be hurt." The cold voice was something he wasn't expecting and his eyes quickly found the source.
"Cam, wait a minute." The men could hear him speak to her and see him call her back. The set up couldn't have been better if they had come up with it days ago. They got to see through the door and the cameras what was going on outside the lab. But no one could come in. The doors were bullet proof glass and with the lockdown going on, they knew they were safe inside.
"Here is what you're going to do. That team is going to slowly back away from the doors, but you will stay right there. All talking will be done through me and you will not cross me. If you do, one of these kids will pay the price." The laugh that filled the line was not something Booth never wanted to ever hear again. Nor were the man's next words.
"Better yet I will make you a deal. I will let most of these kids and the lovely Miss Berry go free if you..." There was a pause and an uneasy feeling settled over him at hearing it.
"If I what?" Booth shouted into the phone. Only seconds after the words left his mouth did he know how much the anger was going to cost him. He watched as the man on the phone nodded to one of his men. Then in anger and rage he watched the man turn to strike his son. Before the blow could land,Bones stepped in front of Parker, taking the full force of the blow to her stomach. The men talked amongst themselves for a minute before the leader cameback on the line.
"Looks like young Mr. Booth has an angel. Take this as a sign of good faith on my part. The kids and teacher will be let out of the side door once every one is away from the door. I will keep Mr. Booth here along with his angel and we'll talk soon." With that the line went dead and Booth backed everyone away. As told, once the last person was away the teacher and all students but his son came out of the lab. Booth didn't know who the men where that had his family locked in the lab with them, but he was going to find out. The best place to start was with the kids and teacher.
