A/N: What is going through the minds of Booth and Brennan at the end of the season 6 finale. **SPOILERS**
Booth's thoughts are bold and Brennan's are italicized.
Diclaimer: I don't own Bones.
"I'm…I'm pregnant."
She's pregnant? Is this a dream? Or a nightmare? Is she about to tell me that its someone else's or is it mine?
Why isn't he saying anything? I just told him that I am going to have his child. Shouldn't he be happy? Or upset? Anything but silent. Oh wait! I didn't clarify.
"You're the father."
It's mine? Bones and I are going to have a baby? This is really happening? Oh God, thank you! Thank you! I have never been this happy in my life!
There's the smile I was hoping for. He really had me nervous for a second. I wasn't sure if he was happy about this.
"Yeah? You're pregnant? I'm going to be a daddy?"
"Technically, Booth, you are already a father. But yes, you are the father of the fetus in my womb."
"Baby, Bones, we are having a baby, not a fetus."
"Technically…"
"No, Bones, we are having a baby. No science this time. I understand that it is technically a fetus, I took biology. What I'm saying is we are having a baby. A baby, Bones! You are happy about this, right?"
I didn't even think. What if she doesn't want the baby? Then why would she have told me about it though? She has to want it. She has to!
What? Why would he think that I wouldn't be happy about having a child with him. I wanted it all those years ago, why would it be any different now?
"Of course I am, Booth. Very happy. But I am also very apprehensive. I don't know if I will be a good mother."
"Bones, you will make a great mother. Okay? And listen, I'll be right here beside you the whole time. I won't let you fail. We're partners, in every sense of the word. If you'll have me."
What if this is just like before? Maybe she doesn't want me to be involved. I wouldn't be able to handle that.
Of course I want him with me. I love him. I never let myself believe in love before but I know now that it does exist. I feel it every time I think of him. Every time I look at him.
"I…I love you, Booth. I would like nothing more than for you to help me raise this child. I don't think I can do it on my own."
Did she just…tell me she loves me? Oh, that look. I would die a happy man if she would just smile like that at me one more time. It's a look that could make anyone fall in love.
There, I said it. It's out there. He knows that I love him. Does he feel the same? Has he changed his mind?
"I love you too, Bones. More than anything. Well, except Parker and our new addition. Come on, let's get home. It's been a long night."
"Okay Booth."
I can't stop smiling. Bones—My Bones—is having a baby. With me! We are going to have a baby! And she loves me. She wants me involved. I don't know how I ever got this lucky.
He loves me. He wants to help me raise our child. I won't be alone. I know I said I could do it alone before, but now I just don't think that is possible. I can't imagine doing this without him.
