Spoilers: This takes place after the Christmas episode. So there are spoilers from that episode and it's fair game for any other episodes before that too.

Disclaimer: Chances are, if I owned Bones, I wouldn't be posting on here, I'd be writing for the episodes

Authors Note: This is my first story so I would love any input! Also, I have posted part of this story but I have recently decided to continue it. For some reason I can't find the story in my account so I'm just redoing it. Please review!

Chapter One:

Brennan sat in her office and was working on her latest book when she happened to look up and see it begin to snow. It was only 8 am and she predicted that logically, the ground will be covered within a few hours. She continued to work on her book when she remembered a time when she was six years old and she and Russ had a snowball fight against their mother and father. She was so entranced by the memory, she didn't hear Booth until he shouted "Bones!"

"What Booth?"

"We have a case," he told her, flashing his charm smile.

On the way to the crime scene, Brennan learned a body was found buried in someone's garden by a dog that dug a hole revealing it. Arriving at the crime scene, Brennan grabbed her kit and followed Booth to where her bones were at. Upon observing them, she found the victim to be female between the ages of 30 and 35 with two gunshot wounds in the leg and one to the chest.

"Well at least we know one thing," Booth said.

"And what's that?" Brennan replied.

"Whoever shot her had really sucky aim at first."

"Booth... that isn't something we've proved yet. There is no way to tell right now if those two wounds (she points to the leg) were even made at the same time."

"Bones, I was just... nevermind."

"Fine, okay. Let's just get these to the lab."

"Yeah, good idea, cuz in a few minutes, we won't be able to move in this snow."

Back at the lab, Cam, Zach, Angela, and Hodgins were sharing snow stories from their childhood.

"Okay everybody – can we just get back to work? I'm sure this woman's family would love to know what happened! Angela – can you get started o the face?"

"Yeah sweetie, I'm on it."

"Zach, do you have anything on the murder weapon?"

"Yes Dr. Brennan – it's a 22 caliber. The shot to the chest was the one which ended her life. The other two are at least three years old."

"And Hodgins – what can you tell us about the particulates found around the body?"

"There are bits of rock and asphalt mixed with the soil as well as mulch so it means she was killed on a road and then buried in the garden."

"Okay so we'll have to search the road near where the body was found for any blood stains," Brennan concluded.

"Everyone…" Angela started but was interrupted by Booth swiping his card and coming onto the platform.

"Okay squints – we got an ID yet?"

"As I was saying – I have an ID. Her name is Allison Garner. She is a former police officer but had a baby five months ago so she quit to become an at-home-mom. It says here her husband is Richard Garner, a police officer."

"Okay Bones, let's go check out the husband," Booth said as he pulled Brennan away from the Bones by the shoulders."

"Awww!" Angela awed.

"What?" everyone replied in unison?

"They were partners!" Angela informed them looking at Booth, who just glared at her, and Brennan who was... blushing?

"Brennan, sweetie, are you blushing?"

"No, of course not, Booth are we going or what?"

"Yeah, yeah, let's go"
