Hi guys! YellowShadess here with a new story! This follows the birth Christine and Michael's baby but, Michael is away on a case when Christine goes into labor! Here we go! -J.A.
"Michael! I'll be fine. This case huge! You have to go solve it! I have my parents and yours to look after me and the baby." Christone said as she followed her husband into their bedroom.. Her 9 month pregnant belly slowing her down a bit.
"Baby, I don't want to leave you so close to delivery! What happens if you go into labor. I don't want to miss the birth of our child!" He had a frantic look on his face and she looked ever so calm. She spoke softly.
"Babe. I have a 2 weeks left. You will be gone for less than a week. I promise, you will NOT miss the birth of our baby." She had walked towards him and pulled him into a hug.
"Ill stay with my patents while your away so if i God forbid go into labor i wont be alone." Christine said into his chest. She did have a point. This case was massive for him as a young FBI agent. She won't leave the lab anyway. She'll be with her mother in the lab identifying bones until she goes on maternity leave next week.
"Okay baby. Ill go. But, if anything happens, even a Braxton Hicks contraction I am coming home." She nodded and they kissed. They both packed a bag while Christine called Booth and Brennan. They both agreed to have her stay over. The pair were on their way to the Booth house in no time. Michael and Christine said their goodbyes and Michael climbed into his car and drove to North Carolina.
Christine settled into her old room then went down stairs to hang out with her parents. Even though she saw her parents everyday she hasn't had a family talk since she was in college. They sat down and talked for hours. About everything and anything under the sun.
"So honey, when do you think you're gonna have this baby?" Booth asked
"I don't know. Probably in 2 weeks." Christine said while she took a sip of water.
"I think it will be in a few days." Brennan said.
"Me too." Booth said. Christine looked at her parents like they were insane.
"Are you two trying to give me a heart attack?' She said.
"No, but you look the way I did when I was about to give birth to you and your brother."
"Speaking of births, now that I think of it, you guys never told me the story of how I was born." Christine said. Booth and Brennan looked at each other then back at their drinks.
"That's another story for another day. Well, look at the time. Its late, we must be going to bed. Good night honey. Lets go Bones." Booth grabbed Brennan's hand and kissed his daughter goodnight and went to bed. Christine was left sitting at the table wondering why her parents won't tell the story of her birth. She decided to go to sleep and try to find out in the morning.
Christine woke up the next morning smelling bacon and pancakes. She jumped out of bed and ran down stairs as fast as her pregnant body could carry her. She was greeted by her parents.
"Good Morning." Christine said tiredly. She saw that her father was still in his pajamas cooking pancakes. Her father was usually dressed and ready for work by this time. "Why are you still in your pajamas daddy?" She asked.
"I don't need to get ready for work since I'm staying home today so I'm staying comfortable." Christine sat down next to her mother and began to eat.
"Why are you staying home?" She asked.
"To keep you company while you're home." He said sipping his coffee. Christine looked at him with confusion.
"Dad, I'm going to work. Maternity leave doesn't start until next week." She said.
"I don't want you to go into labor at the lab. Especially when you're gonna have this baby sometime in the next few days." He said. Christine groaned and spoke,
"Guys! I'm not going into labor this week! Like i said, I'm going to have this baby in 2 weeks… When I'm due!" Booth and Brennan looked at each other than back at Christine.
"Sweetie, you're talking to 2 people who have witnessed childbirth. Labor can be unpredictable. Especially when you've been having Braxton Hicks contractions for a month now. It's only a matter of time." Brennan said. Booth was quick with his response.
"And! When you go into labor in the next few days you will be naming the baby after either me or your mother. depending on the gender." Christine sat up and looked at her parents with determining eyes.
"Is that a bet?" She asked.
"Yeah. I guess it is." Booth said, meeting face to face with his daughter, with his 'interrogation mode' switched on.
"Okay, If you win and I give birth by the end of this week, We will put the baby's MIDDLE name either yours or mom's. But, if I win and I give birth in 2 weeks like I said, you have to give up your 'man cave' for a play room for my kids, Parker's kids and Henry's kids when he has them. Do we have a deal?" She stuck out her hand. Booth looked at the hand then back at Christine. He took her hand and shook it. "Deal."
