Tip of My Tongue

Plot: it had been 3 years and she'd never told him that she was pregnant. That she had used what he'd given her when she decided she wanted a baby. When she found out she was pregnant she ran, but what is she going to do when Booth finds out she had his baby and never told him?

Chapter 1

"Hannah, don't go over there. I'll get the door" She told her now almost Three year old daughter who was headed for the front door, in which someone was knocking at.

She picked up the little girl and looked through the peep hole, she was surprised to see Booth standing at her apartment door.

She looked at the little girl then at the door, she wondered if she should open the door with the child on her side. She decided to do this regardless of what Booth thought.

He was surprised when she opened the door holding a little girl that had her mother's hair color, his brown eyes and her smile. He stood there for a moment without saying a word.

Brennan took this as a sign that the little girl needed to go play with her toys.

"Would you like to come in?" She asked him softly. He nodded his head in reply. It had been 3 years since he'd last seen her, she would sometimes call his cell phone but said nothing.

"To answer the question I know you're going to ask me…" She said, bluntly. "You are her father." She added, quickly. Booth closed his eyes and smiled, she didn't know it but she'd almost said a quote from star wars.

She watched him for a moment; she must have said something that he found funny.

"Is something funny?" She asked, with confusion. He opened his eyes to see her confused look.

"No, I just miss that look on you're face" He said staring into her eyes. She stared right back into his.

"Why didn't you tell me that you had used my… stuff" He asked quietly. She smirked at this, than moved close to him. She was close enough to whisper in his ear.

"Because, I wanted you to hunt for me" she whispered softly. Her hot breath on his ear got to him for a moment.

"Three years…" He said bluntly. "It took me three damn years to find you! And that's all you have to say?! Is that you wanted me to hunt for you?!" He shouted; he was no angry.

Brennan closed her eyes, when she heard the crying of their daughter. Booth turned around and saw Hannah sitting on the floor crying.

"You just made your daughter cry. Are you happy?" Brennan asked coldly as she picked up the crying toddler.


"I'm sorry" Brennan said, after putting Hannah down for the night. Booth was leaning against the wall in the hallway. He gave her a weak smile and just nodded his head in acceptance.

Brennan leaned her back against the opposite wall as Booth; who watched her for a few moments. Brennan looked over at him, seeing that he was watching her intently. They stared at each other then met half way in a heated kiss.

"You don't know how much I've missed you!" Brennan said pulling off his tie. Booth smiled as he helped her remove her sweater.

"I think I have an idea of how much you've missed me" He said, kissing down her neck.

"We should go in the bedroom; we don't need to wake Hannah up." Brennan said backing toward the bedroom, making Booth fallow.

"Good point" He said as they made their way into the bedroom. He shut and locked the door.


Booth woke up to the smell of coffee and the sound of laughter and an empty bed. He sat up and looked around the room. He realized Brennan was probably making breakfast and the laughter was Hannah's and Brennan combined.

He got up and pulled on the clothes which he'd showed up in the evening before. He picked up his cell phone and dialed Angela's number.

"Hey, I found her" He said, running a hand down his face. After a short conversation he hung up the phone and went out to see what was for breakfast.

He was amazed at the sight before his eyes, Brennan was entertaining Hannah by trying to flip pancakes in the air. It took a moment for ether of them to realize he had entered the room.

"Well good morning" Brennan said with a smile. Hannah turned around and looked at him with curious eyes.

"Hannah, after breakfast there is something you should know about this man" Brennan said putting a pancake on a plat, buttered and put a little syrup on it. She set it in front of the little girl after also cutting it for her.
