This is set a few months after Brennan leaves Booth with Christine. Hope you like it.
It had been three months since Brennan had left Booth outside the church. Three months since he last saw the woman he loved and his daughter and it was killing him. Everyday he had the hopes that they would come home but after three months of waiting he had decided to give up hope. It killed him everyday that he wasn't with them. Every time there was a news report of a woman or baby found dead, his heart broke. He didn't go home most nights because he couldn't go home to the house he shared with her. The house they had bought together for them and their child. His child that he has cried over almost every night since they left. He had been sleeping at his office or in her office because he couldn't face the empty house that reminded him of her.

Brennan sighed as she put her daughter down in her new crib in their small apartment. She then left the room and closed the door silently as to not wake her. Brennan then walked over to the window and looked out over the night sky, wondering if Booth was doing the same. She cried every night since they left him and she knew she needed him so she grabbed her new phone and began to dial his number. Hovering over the call button, she sighed and threw the phone down onto the couch as she began to sob. After a calming cup of tea, she picked up her phone and pressed the call button.

Booth was lying on Brennan's couch in her office when his phone rang. "Booth" he grumbled and got sobs in return, Brennan didn't cry often but when she did it was powerful. "Booth" she sobbed and his heart almost stopped beating. "Bones! Baby, is that you?" he asked although knowing full well that it was. "Booth, I miss you, I need you, Christine needs you, I was wrong to leave but I didn't want to lose you or her because I love you both so much" she cried into the phone. "Oh Bones! Where are you? I'll come and get you. I need you and love you too. We'll fight Pelant together. We can do anything as long as you're here with me" he pleaded.

Angela had been just around the corner from her home when she realised that she had forgotten something in her office and had to turn back. She had walked into the lab when she saw Brennan's office light on but she already knew who was in her best friend's office. She walked over to the office when she heard Booth talking to someone on the phone. She listened carefully to the conversation and heard Booth say Bones! "Booth is that her on the phone" Angela said as she barged into the office. "Angela Stop!" Booth shouted as she pulled the phone from him. "Bren I need you to come home" she said as she walked out of the office with the phone and into her own office with Booth stunned into staying where he was. "Brennan he needs you, he hasn't slept in the house since you left. He stays in your office almost every night" Angela said with a trace of tears in her voice. "Ange I know but I really need to speak to Booth. I miss his voice and I…" Brennan broke off with tears. "I can't sleep more than an hour or two because I'm cold and lonely and I need his arms around me because I'm not strong enough for myself and I'm not strong enough for Christine and I just need Booth Now!" She said with desperation and she sounded defeated.

Booth was in shock. Brennan had phoned him. His Bones had called him because she needed him. He got over his shock when he remembered her saying those words "I miss you, I need you". He got up from his seat and ran after Angela to get his phone and almost broke down in tears when he saw Angela come out of her office with the phone in one hand and the other hand wiping at her puffy red eyes. She ran over to Booth and hugged him tight as she gave him the phone and left for the ladies room to freshen up. Booth held the phone to his ear and spoke gently "Bones I need to see you and come get you. Where are you?" "Oh Booth! I don't know if I can. What about Pelant? What about us? What happens if I lose you?" she broke down again and Booth wanted nothing more than to hold her close. "Bones, listen carefully to me. I'm going to get Pelant, I'm going to make sure we're safe and I'm going to make sure nothing happens to us just please come back to me. Trust me Bones" he begged. "Ok Booth, I trust you" she said and then told him her address where she was with Christine. Angela came back all freshened up and went straight to Booth where he was hanging up the phone. "Well what is going on?" she asked while trying to sound confident but failing. Booth looked at her and smiled for the first time in three months "She's coming home" and then he left to go and get the woman he loved.
