It will get updated with new chapters every so often, so please follow or favorite me and my story so you all can get updated for any chapters I post and for any future stories I may write. Enjoy!**Disclaimer: I don't own any of the BONES characters, I only own the characters and plots that I create for the story. So please don't sue me.**P.S.: If I did own BONES, the show would have been renewed for season 13 and would have been playing on a different network*Chapter 1: Few Weeks Later...

It had only been a few weeks since they got together and since she first told him she was pregnant with his child. Since then they were at each others side 24/7.

She remembers the night that she first told him she was pregnant. She was so nervous that she could barely speak. Something that rarely happened when it came to being around him.

Brennan knew that Booth loved children, hell he even had one of his own.

But from the moment she first spoke those five words, and saw his face light up like a kid who had gotten the toy they wanted on Christmas morning. The second his face lit up into the most adorable goofy grin and he scooped her up in his arms, she knew she had said the right thing.

That night they stayed at his apartment and slept in the same bed where it happened.

They would gradually talk about the future, what they planned on doing once the baby was born. Booth was okay with Brennan not being comfortable with the idea of marriage for the time being. He would be there for her every step of this pregnancy and after the pregnancy. He would help her take care of their baby, even if it meant he would be living in sin with her. He wouldn't try and force marriage on her, he would wait until she was ready. Until they were ready.

Then every so often throughout the wee hours of the morning, she would wake up to find him speaking to the baby.

"Hello little baby in mama Bones's belly..."

"Booth...the baby won't be able hear you at this stage...I am only 2 weeks pregnant." Brennan chuckled groggily.

"I know...but please let me have my fun." Booth stated, his arms hugging her waist.

She merely laughed as she lightly pressed her hand lightly against his head, playing with his hair.

"Can you believe that we will get to see our little baby girl in 8 months?" Booth asked, a finger lightly drawing imaginary pictures on her stomach.

"Baby girl? You do know that there is 50% chance that the baby could also be a baby boy. How could you possibly know that it's a girl?" Brennan asked, playfully raising an eyebrow at him.

"Because Bones, I just know...that we'll have a beautiful little girl who has your beauty and your smarts and your..." Booth trailed off.

"...and your warm and reassuring brown eyes." She stated while smiling at him.

"I love you, Bones and I love this baby growing in your stomach right now. My baby. " Booth said, a huge smile growing on his face.

"I love you too, Booth." Brennan replied, a smile mirroring his forming on her face as well.

They talked some more until one of them fell asleep. Booth falling asleep with his head beside her stomach and hand laying protectively on her stomach.

*Chapter 2 will be Brennan and Booth dealing with the nasty part of the beginning of pregnancies: Morning sickness. Now, I have never been pregnant in my entire life (though don't get me wrong, I do want to have kids, just not right now)...though I have heard stories from women who are or have been pregnant...that Nausea Gravitium ( or also known as morning sickness) is the biggest thing you have to tackle in the first trimester...though all pregnancies are different. So who knows, I could be wrong. Reviews are always welcomed and encouraged. Before I go, I will be posting the second chapter tomorrow night or the night after that. So, please be on the lookout for a new chapter to this story. Thank you and until next time...enjoy reading!*
