A/N: Okay so this is my first attempt at fanfiction. I usually do original stuff, but I love Hodgela so much I decided to give them a shot. This is a very short drabble where we see Hodgins and Angela at home. Please review and don't be afraid to be honest :) Oh and I unfortunately do not own Bones.
Dr. Jack Hodgins pulled into the long driveway of the two-story condo, back from another long day at work. It had been strange not to have Angela there. While the day usually went by pretty fast, today it had dragged on. Turning off the engine of the car he sighed, making his way to the front door. "Ange? I'm home," he called setting his keys down and taking off his coat.
"I'm in the kitchen honey," came his wife's reply and he grinned smelling the spicy Mexican food she had taken a liking to.
He walked in to see her adding plates and silverware to the table in the adjoining dining room, their whole house, aside from the bedrooms and bathrooms, being open. Leaning against the wall, he smiled, the visible changes to her body a wonderful sight to see.
She turned back to get the rest of the food and jumped back slightly, startled. "Oh! I didn't see you there Jack."
He chuckled, motioning for her to come over, trying not to laugh again as she waddled over. "Miss me?" he asked, pressing his lips to hers in a passionate kiss.
She smiled, "Of course I did," and she kissed him again, pulling back as the baby inside her kicked, harder than usual. She grunted, rubbing her stomach gently, "I guess the baby did too."
That look of wonder and amazement that Angela loved to see on his face appeared and she grabbed his hand, placing it on her swollen belly. Their baby kicked again right where his hand was and he gasped. "That will never cease to amaze me."
She laughed softly as he kissed her cheek. Breaking apart, he made to grab the food himself, ignoring her protests, "Jack I'm pregnant not an invalid. While I may not be able to tie my own shoes, I can bring food to the table."
"Angie, you're nine months pregnant, the only thing you should be doing is resting."
"Yeah well I've rested all day. Remember? You made me take the day off," she pouted, "I'm still not too happy about that either."
Turning he grabbed her hands and looked into her eyes with those beautiful blue eyes, "If it means that you and our baby are safe, then I don't care if you don't like it. You don't need to go into premature labor because of the stress of work."
"Hodgins I'm due in two weeks, I don't think the baby would have a problem coming out early," she said, looking completely serious as a look of horror crossed her husband's face, "Honey I'm just kidding, I'll be careful I promise. Just please let me contribute, you're getting a little bit underfoot again."
He just rolled his eyes remembering when she had tried to paint the baby's room, oblivious to the harm that the fumes could cause. Luckily, he had found her just as she was about to open the paint cans. But, he knew there was no way he could win this argument. Angela could be relentless when she wanted something and Hodgins could only say no to her for so long before he broke.
"How about this. You can go to work, but no heavy lifting and no standing for too long. I mean it Ange, if you start to feel tired, you need to go lay down." He brushed her bangs out of her face, "Deal?"
She sighed, "Deal, but you owe me a massage later. You have no idea how bored I was today."
"Okay, maybe a relaxing massage in the big tub? Dr. Banno did say warm water was good for relaxing your back muscles."
"Mhhhh that does sound nice, but first we eat," she said, starting to make her way to the table.
As she waddled by, Hodgins grabbed her arm, "Wait. I love you Angie." He smiled, kissing her again. He bent down, kissing her swollen stomach as well, "I love you too, baby. You've made us the happiest people in the entire world," he cooed softly.
Angela just grinned, silently agreeing with him. She could not wait until the little bundle of joy they had been anticipating for nine months finally joined them.
"Come on, let's eat."
A/N: So what did you think? There is more to come, like when Angela told Hodgins she was pregnant, what was said in The Blackout in the Blizzard, etc. I promise the next one will be MUCH longer, this was just me getting used to the idea of using someone else's characters. Please review and I'll try to get the next bit up a little quicker.
