Hey Guys! I'm Lavinia. This is my first ever Fan Fiction :) Please be nice haha :) A special thanks to Vanessa (BnB447) who helped me out.

I do not own Bones... :)

Enjoy!

It took all she had to plant her foot on the pedal. It took all her courage and strength to drive away from the man she loved and the life they were just starting together. Booth's shouts of confusion and hurt rang out. Christine started to cry. It was almost like she knew what was going on, which broke Brennan's heart. Her rational mind told her this simply wasn't plausible, but the pain in her chest said otherwise. It could be described no other way.

Brennan's words from earlier echoed through his mind. "I love you, Booth. I don't want you to think that we are only together because of Christine." They swirled around and around. That kiss, the last kiss before she left. It lingered on his lips. He was unwilling to let it go. He raised a finger to touch his lips. Her voice echoed in his head again. A single tear fell from his left eye and he wiped it away vigorously.

"That's my family Angela. My family. I love her. I… I love them." The lump in his throat made it hard to speak.

"We will get them back Booth. I promise. She's my best friend." She hesitated. " I promise we will get her back." Even though the tears streaming down her face contradicted what she was saying, her words comforted him slightly. She pulled him into a hug. Usually, this would have been awkward for him, but today it was nice. Cam walked in, flustered, with tear-stained cheeks.

"Have you got anything?"

Angela shook her head solemnly.

"I've been over and over the footage. It's seamless. Maybe if I knew what program he used? Anything. Any new clues. Anything." She raised her voice and bashed her fist onto the desk. Booth was shocked. Angela was always so calm and collected. She buried her head in her hands and let out soft sobs.

"Fuck! I should be able to do something! We should be able to do something! It's Brennan, she would never murder someone." Hodgins entered the room and she stood and flung herself into his arms. He bore a wide smile.

"I may have a lead." He said.

As she sped away from the destroyed man in the street, tears started to flow. Christine's heart melting cries flooded the car. Pain. Sorrow. Guilt. The guilt consumed her, leaving Booth behind was the hardest thing she had to do in her life. She knew he would be alright with Cam, Angela and Hodgins, but she felt so guilty. She almost stopped and turned around. The abandonment she felt as a teenager would be similar to that which he felt right now. The heart break and anguish. The pain. She had told him she loved him and they had shared a kiss. One of those heart melting kisses. One that she didn't want to end. She knew it was their last kiss, their last touch for a long time, but he didn't.

She didn't do it. Ethan was her friend. To be completely honest with herself, he was her first love. At the time, she didn't know she was capable of love, but Booth had taught her so much in the six and a half years they had known each other. Now they shared a child together. Now, they said 'I Love You' on a daily basis. This was what she had wanted for so long, and now it was being taken away from her by a very selfish man. She reached for the phone her father had given her and turned it on. The screen lit up to reveal a picture of her and Booth. Tears cascaded down her cheeks. Her father had told her not to stop, but it was getting too hard to see the road. Temperance pulled to the side of the road and clambered into the back seat. She unbuckled Christine and clutched her tightly, sobbing into her daughter's soft blankets.

"Booth, you need to go home and sleep." Angela had been saying this for about an hour now.

"No Angela. I can't, I won't go to sleep until she is lying next to me again, safe. Hodgins, how is that… thing you're doing coming along?"

Hodgins opened his mouth to speak, but Angela butted in.

"Hodgins is doing the best he can, as fast as he can. We all want her back Booth, but these things take time. In the meantime, we are going back to your house and you are sleeping, or relaxing or whatever, but you are getting out of this lab."

Angela stood and took his hand. He looked up at her and she could see the pain in his eyes.

"Sweetie, I know it's hard, but this is Brennan, we will never give up. We will get her back. I promise."

He closed his eyes and when he opened them, a tear followed. Angela wiped it away and helped him up. Booth just stood there for a moment, staring. She turned to address Hodgins and Booth pulled her into a hug. His torso rose and fell as he cried on her shoulder.

"Thank you Angela." He managed between sobs.

"What are friends for huh?"

She lead him out of the lab and to her car in the garage and Booth followed on high alert.

The car trip home felt long. As they pulled to a stop in the driveway, Angela proceeded to get out of the car. Booth placed his hand on her shoulder. He opened his door cautiously and drew his gun.

"Booth! I thought they took your gun off you!"

He signalled for her to be quiet and follow him. She did as he said.

"Booth." She whispered.

He jumped a little.

"Angela, this guy has killed people. He's forced Brennan away with Christine. I'm not convinced he will stay away, so please, be quiet."

She nodded. Booth dug around in his pocket for his keys. The door opened and he scanned the room.

Angela sighed. "I know it's important to be careful, but do you really believe he would break into your house and wait for you to come home? He's a very smart man Booth, he knows what you can and will do."

Booth relaxed a little. He walked into the house, still holding the gun and flopped onto the couch.

"Tea?" He heard Angela ask.

At the lab, Hodgins, Cam and Wendell were just completing the second stage of the tests. Sweets lay on the couch, wishing he could help, loathing the court's orders.

"We need more hands. This is just going to take so long." Cam yawned wearily. "We could take shifts that way too."

Hodgins nodded in approval.

"We need Brennan. That's who we need." Wendell grumbled.

Hodgins nodded again. "I know this is hard Bud, but we just have to keep going. Think like Brennan. What would she do if it was Angela in this position?" Then he shuddered. He didn't like that idea and to think that Booth was going through exactly that dreaded scenario with the woman he loved, made Hodgins want to work even faster. "You know who you've got to call, Cam. Sweets, she's going to need you."

Both faces smiled back at him. Sweets grinned because he was finally able to help. Cam grinned because she knew Hodgins was right. They needed Zack.

Booth lay on the make shift bed on the floor in his and Brennan's room. The rise and fall of Angela's deep breaths filled the room. He didn't want to leave her alone, but he didn't want to make things awkward. They had resolved to make a bed on the floor. She had argued that he shouldn't be sleeping on the floor, but she gave in easily. He could see she was tired and that she was secretly thankful for the bed. Even with her in the room, he felt alone. The near silence of the room made him feel even more alone. His arms felt empty. He felt empty. She was gone, with their baby. His sobs filled the air.

He looked up at the clock, 4:02am.

"Ange? Are you awake?"

"Yeah. I can't sleep." She replied.

"Want to go in to the lab? I've relaxed enough now."

She swung her legs out of the bed and smiled. "Sure. Let's go."

Max was on his way out of the city to meet his daughter. A fire engine flew past and turned into the street ahead. His heart sank as he realised it was the street Booth and Tempe lived in. Max sped up. He turned into the street. There was a cluster emergency vehicles crowding the street outside Tempe's house. A policeman walked up to his car.

"Sorry Sir, We are going to need you to vacate the street."

"Oh, alright Officer." Max replied. "What happened?"

"There was a bomb attack."

"Was there anyone in the house?"

"We believe so." The Policeman replied solemnly

"Thank you officer."

"Shit." He cursed as he drove away from the scene. His plan had just developed an unexpected, destroying twist.

Thanks for reading guys! Chapter 2 coming up :)
