CHAPTER TWO: The Proud Parents and the One Month Old

SWEETS' POV-

"Oh I'm just so excited to get a photo of Seeley with Santa" chatters Daisy Wick eagerly.

I watch with a smile as she squeezes my hand tightly and bounds down the mall pulling me behind her.

"Hey calm down or you're gonna pull my arm out of it's socket baby, and then we'll be going for a trip to the emergency room instead of to Santa" I reply as I chase after her. Seeley was strapped to my chest in one of those baby pouch things and I watch as his little arms bounce up and down as I walk.

Daisy rolls her eyes "As if I'd ever do that to my Lancelot," she laughs "He can't hold me or Seeley if he doesn't have both arms and I would never wish for that to happen"

She really did think about things in the strangest of contexts.


We soon reach Santa and much to our mixture of dismay and surprise we are greeted with a mile long line. Mothers, fathers and children were gathered about. Some kids were in strollers, others were on leashes and others were walking freely.

Daisy looks at me "I suppose that we should try and line up, maybe we will have gotten to Santa in at least half and hour"

I nod and take a place in the line besides my girlfriend. She leans against me and smiles up at my face.

"You really are keen to get this photo, aren't you baby?" I ask with a smile.

Daisy nods "I wouldn't miss it for the world. One day in twenty years we'll look back at the baby photos and we'll see the photo of our son's first Christmas, we need to keep the memories somewhere"


About forty-five minutes later we were three spots from the top of the line. I had been Facebooking for the past twenty minutes and I think my followers were really getting into finding out where I was in the line. I have been updating my status every five minutes and had included selfies of Daisy and I or Seeley and I or Daisy and Seeley or all of us and I was getting quite a large dosage of likes on all of the images.

I was in the middle of writing my forty-five minute into the line status when I feel someone tap me on the shoulder.

I turn around in order to see Jack Hodgins standing in the line behind me. He had his son, Michael Vincent, balanced on his shoulders and a huge smile spread across his face.

"Hey dude fancy seeing you here, how's everything going with the little guy?" asks Hodgins as he points at Seeley.

I smile "It's going super, Daisy and I have taken him for his first official meet and greet with Santa today, I think Daisy is more excited then Seeley though…"

"Angie was like that on Michael's first Christmas, she would bounce about excitably while the baby slept or cried, it's perfectly normal stuff"

"I know it's normal but it's just driving me a bit crazy" I whisper so that Daisy couldn't hear.

Hodgins smiles and runs a hand through his red curly hair "I don't know how you can make comments like that though Sweets. You get so super excited about everything to do with this baby. I still remember you running into the Jeffersonian screaming 'He did his first poo guys!' but you ran too fast and forget to swipe your card. The alarm began bleeping and Cam came out angrily. You got the blame all because of the baby. Accept it Sweets you're a crazy daddy and she's a crazy mommy, it's normal"

I nod and let out a laugh, he was right. That poo had caused some dramas and I had managed to forget the whole thing. Sometimes you needed other people's memories to jog your own.


"So welcome to Santa's magic cave" laughs a tall blonde woman who was dressed as an elf. "He's pretty cute, what's his name?" she laughs as she points at Seeley who was still strapped to my chest.

"Seeley" Daisy laughs as she rubs her son's head "I think he's the cutest thing on the planet"

The elf woman nods which causes the bell onto of her pointed hat to jingle. "So would you like to come with me into Santa's cave?"

We both nod and follow the woman down a hallway, which had icicle like shapes carved into the walls. She stops at a door marked 'Santa's Workshop' and knocks quickly before pulling down on the handle.

We enter the room behind the woman and glance around. At the far end of the room sat a man dressed as Santa. He wore a red outfit and had a big long white beard.

"Ho, ho, ho!" he cries, "So I see we have a baby here to visit Santa Claus"

Daisy nods and we walk closer to Santa. The blonde woman smiles at us "So why doesn't Seeley and his mom sit with Santa while daddy takes some photos?" she suggests.

I nod. That was a rather good idea. I undo Seeley from his pouch and pass him to Daisy. She hugs her son close to her chest and sits down on the smaller chair beside Santa.

I watch as he leans over and smiles at Daisy "So whom do we have here?" he asks Seeley but he technically was talking to Daisy.

"This is my son Seeley" she replies.

Santa nods "So Seeley have you been a good boy this year?" he asks my infant son.

Daisy nods "Technically he hasn't been around for a year yet but he has been a good boy since he was born except for all those times that he would spit up on his daddies suits and shirts just before daddy had to go to work"

Santa chuckles merrily and smiles at my son "I think that Santa might be coming around to visit sometime soon"

"Okay everyone sit still, its photo time!" announces the elf as she focuses a large camera.

I remove my iPhone six from my shirt pocket and position it on Daisy and Seeley.

"Three, two, one!" cries the woman and I snap my photo.

I look down at my phone. The photo was wonderful. It showed my two special people smiling up at the camera. Daisy was right; photos were a very important part of memories.


Daisy, Seeley and I stroll down the mall. I had just done all of the required Christmas shopping and bought the bits and pieces that I would think that everyone would like. I spent so long looking for young Christine's gift and I eventually decided on a Shopkins playset and a Minecraft t-shirt that read 'Creeper Princess'. My shopping exhibition had been quite worthwhile and Daisy had gotten her photo so she was happy.

Seeley was sleeping by now so I think that it is about time to go home and tuck my little friend in, he was exhausted.


AN: I hope you enjoyed. I have been typing my weekend away at this story and I always feel a pang of sadness when I realise that this will never happen in real life. Even though that is true I think Sweets deserves to be happy and he is going to get that ending in my FanFics.

Anyway in other news Season 10 premieres in Australia tonight. Even though I have seen endless videos and spoilers on it I still want to watch it so much. It was on the front of the South Australian TV Guide this morning and I screamed for joy. I think my younger sister thought I was crazy, the perks of being a Bones Obsessed Teenage Girl!

Please Read and Review, I love to hear your thoughts and that button doesn't bite!
