A/N: First off, I know it's like March and watching Christmas stuff. This is my take on after Booth left Hodgins in the dumpster. Please review.
"Booth! You're going to help me out of here, right?" Hodgins yelled.
"I'll catch you later!" Booth said avoiding puddles.
"What a load of crap, and I'm literally standing in a dumpster full of crap," Hodgins muttered pulling his cellphone out and dialing.
"Dr. Saroyan," she answered.
"Cam, I'm in the alley behind the Chinese restaurant," he said.
"And your point is?" Cam asked.
"Booth left me in the dumpster and I can't get out," Hodgins said.
"He left you in the dumpster and you want me to do what about it?"
"Cam, as great as looking at bugs is, please come help me out of the dumpster!"
"Fine, I'm on my way," she said.
"Thank you," he replied hanging up the phone.
Ten minutes later Cam pulled up to the curb and stepped out of her car into the snow.
"Why, didn't I move to the Hawaiian Islands," she muttered walking over to the alley. "Hodgins, you back here?" she yelled.
"Cam, thank god you're here, come help me out of here!" he yelled back. Cam walked into the alley avoiding puddles.
"It's disgusting back here, and these are my Prada shoes," Cam said approaching the dumpster.
"Heaven for bug and slime people, please help me out of here," Hodgins replied.
"Take the gloves off and give me your hand," she said taking Hodgins' hand.
"Thank you for coming down to get me, I knew Angela would never come down here to get me out of a dumpster," Hodgins said climbing out.
"You will take that suit off before getting in my car," she replied.
"I know," he said as they walked out of the alley.
"How are things between you and Angela?" Cam asked.
"Good, yet very complicated at the same time," Hodgins replied as he shoved the filthy suit into the plastic bag Cam handed him.
"I overheard you two talking about Christmas, have fun making decorations," she said climbing into the car.
"Are you still going on your family cruise?" he asked sitting down in the passenger's seat.
"No, change of plans, I'm ditching the family and staying here in D.C."
"And do what exactly, go shopping?"
"My Christmas gift to myself is a good movie, mud mask, and a really bad hangover," Cam replied.
"Well, if Angela doesn't stay the night on Christmas Eve, Jesus would be pleased with my hangover," Hodgins said.
"If Dr. Brennan stays in town me, her, and Seeley, might do something," Cam said.
"Zack's going to Michigan so there will be no logic involved what-so-ever, only frivolity," Hodgins replied with a smile.
"One thing all of us have in common is we avoid our families' like the plague," Cam said.
"So very true," Hodgins agreed.
A/N 2: It just came to me when I saw Hodgins in the dumpster!
