I don't own Bones.

What if Bones and Booth had been together all along? What if they had child together? Slightly AU and by slight I mean completely.

Little back-story: Bones and Booth were in love but silly them they kept it well hidden. Booth had a hit out on him, Bones got pregnant. They were forced to take their baby to live with Jared- Booth's brother until it is safe enough to bring baby home. That time is now. I know there are some inconsistencies but this has been running round my head for a while. Enjoy.


"Hey! Cam have you seen Bones?" Asked flustered Booth, who was clutching a cup of coffee in his shaking hand. "Man, I'm out of breath."

Cam turned around and walked up to, her impossibly high heels clopping loudly on the cold, hard floor. She nodded her head and motioned to the bone room.

"She's in there, talking to the head of the department. You shall have to wait."

Booth let out a groan of annoyance. "It can't wait."

"Well, Booth." Cam said, smiling slightly at the special agent, who was hopping impatiently from foot to foot. "Tough. She should be done soon."

"How soon is soon?"

"I don't know! So is it some grizzly murder you need her for?" Cam asked curiously, Brennan seemed to spending less and less time in the lab of late and to be honest Dr Saroyan didn't mind- the murder still got solved and she got rid of one Dr, one Dr who, obviously, didn't like her acting superior.

"No, that hit on my head is gone- FBI cracked the circle and now Mr "I have twelve guns and a fast car" is spending his days in a jail. Far away."

"Oh?"

Booth grinned from ear to ear, he finally felt free to be able to bring his baby home, to love Bones without fear of her being shot, killed or fed to a dog. Life was finally looking up. He couldn't wait to introduce Parker to his little sister. Or to see the look on his Bones' face when he told her the news. He couldn't wait.

"Excuse me Camille."

He barged past the woman, sprinting down the hall until he got to the room. The door was shut, he half expected a do-not-disturb sign to be hung up- those scientists got funny about their privacy. Copper hair flung round as he burst into the room. He saw Bones' eyes widen, the department guy looked shock at Booth's behaviour.

"Booth?" Brennan hissed. "What are you doing here? Can't you see I'm in an important meeting?"

The other man was staring daggers at Booth. He was fed up of the bureau rushing in and taking his best scientist.

"Yeah well Bones- this is important."

"So is this!"

Booth moved closer, grinning at Bones. "This is better, trust me."

"Excuse me one second." Brennan said as politely as she could to her colleague and pulled Booth roughly to the side.

"It's over Bones. Trebuchet was arrested. The hit's over. Emilia can come home."

Bones smiled and looked at the department head, grimacing she excused herself and her partner and dragged him outside. Tears were collecting in her eyes. It was over.

"When? When do we get her back? Can we go? Get Emi, I mean?"

Booth gripped her shoulders tightly and pulled her into a hug, whispering in his ear how much he did, honestly, love her.

"We can go as soon as we're ready. Up to Jared's and back with Emi. Is that alright?"

Booth felt Bones groan into his shoulder. Her hair tiled his neck as he looked down into her pale, blue eyes.

"What is it?"

"I said I'd help Zack identify some Inuit remains for an exhibit tomorrow. I can't just abandon him."

Booth rested his chin in Bones' head as he began to think. Even if they did go get their daughter today, they had nothing for her- no bed, no food, not toys. However if they went to tomorrow then they had today to prepare everything, to be able to give their beautiful daughter a proper home.

"Then it is settled." Bones said when they had discussed what to do. They would go tomorrow, having beforehand decked out Brennan's apartment with baby "stuff".

"Booth?"

"Yeah Babe?"

"Is she really coming home?"

Booth nodded as he pulled the love of his life in for a kiss.


Did you like? Chapter 2 should be up soon. And it will involve the reactions of the squints to the news that their favourite non-couple actually have a baby. Please let me know if there are any major things wrong. Also- Sully didn't happen and neither did Cam and Booth- just so you know.

Hit the pretty button please.
