No way!

Chapter 2- Introducement

....................................
Brennan looked over at Booth, only to find him with his jaw dropped and his eyes opened as wide as they could go.
She walked over to see what all the fuss was about.

"Booth, are you ok?" She furrowed her eyebrows, and waved a hand in front of his face. "BOOTH!"

He shook his head, and then lightly scooted Brennan to the side, as if to get a better veiw of Kristin. He put one hand on Kristin's shoulder and looked at her with shock.

"Are you sure? Absolutly sure, Kristin?"

"Sure about what Booth?" Brennan raised an eyebrow. Booth and Kristin completely ignored her.

"Yes, Seeley, I am! I ran three DNA tests with her. She's definatly yours." Kristin flung Booth's hand off her shoulder and huffed at him. He could be so stubborn at times...

"Wait.." Brennan was just now catching on to the main air of the conversation. "Kristin,
are you saying Vittoria is... Booth's daughter?" She had a hard time spitting out the last two words. Booth had a daughter?

"Yes, that is exactly what I am saying." Kristin nodded her head. Booth shook his head.

"Kristin, there is no way in hell Vittoria is mine! We didn't even... you know"
He ran his hands through his hair.

"Yes, we did, Seeley. Remember, after the party at Kelsey's..."

"Oh, yeah, we did, didn't we? Without a... Oh shit"
Booth slammed his fist on the table, causing Vittoria and Cam, who were talking, to jump up.

"Damn it, Kristin, why didn't you tell me before?" Booth's face was begining to turn red. Brennen felt out-of-place, so she stepped back towards Cam and Vittoria, leaving the two to yell it out over there.
"Because, Seeley, how do you tell a little girl that her dad lives all the way in D.C"
"Where do you live now?" As far as Booth could remember, Kristin had always lived near him.
"Minnesota, Seeley. Tori's on spring break, and she's 14. I feel she needs to meet her father"
"Well, then, why don't we all go out for dinner somewhere then"
"That sounds fine. Are you going to invite your girlfriend"
"My what?" Booth raised one eyebrow at her.
"Your girlfriend, that Dr. Brennan chick"
And out with the old line it was.
"Bones and I are just partners, and yes, I will invite her" Kristin didn't look convinced.
"Whatever. Would you actually like to meet your daughter now?" Kristin smirked.
Booth took a deep breath, adjusted his tie, and smoothed his hair.

"Lets go."

Booth and Kristin walked towards the seats where Tori, Cam, and Brennan were sitting. Brennan and Cam instinctivly left, so the 'family' could talk. It got a bit quiet when they left.
Kristin was the first to speak.

"Tori, hun, I would like to introduce you to your biological father, Seeley Booth. Seeley, this is your daughter Vittoria Leanne Anderson"
Tori got up out of her seat and smiled at Booth. Booth was at a loss for words. What were you supposed to say to a girl you had never met, but was alledgedly your daughter? He had no idea.

"Um, nice to meet you Vittoria." Booth akwardly stuck out his hand.
Vittoria shook his hand.
"Call me Tori. Nice to meet you too, uh, Seeley? Uh Dad?" She didn't quite know what to call him. This had to be one of the most akward conversations of their lives.
"Either or is fine, Tori. Either or." He weakly smiled at her.
"So where would you like to eat tonight? Your mother and I decided we should take you out to a restraunt today"
"Oh, I know! That place you and Dr. Brenny always eat at. She was talking about it when we were talking"
"Dr. Brenny?" Booth looked at her funny, that was the first time he had heard that nickname.
"That's her last name, right?" Tori tilted her head slightly to the side.
"Its actually Dr. Temperance Brennan, but I'm sure 'Brenny' will work too. The Diner sounds like a great place to get to know eachother." He smiled at Tori.
"Great. See you at seven, Dad?" Booth had ot admit, he liked being called "Dad". He smiled. Tori then walked over,
and much to his suprise, gave him a large hug.

"See you in a few, Tori. Bye, Kris." Booth waved at them, then the two smiled and left the Jeffersonian.

Well, Booth thought, that went better than expected..
