"Female, early 40's and she seems to have died from some sort of blunt forced trauma. Her skull is broken pretty bad. Judging from the maggots it seems like a lot of her flesh is gone from them. I think we can get a really easy ID too. Her teeth are in pretty good shape. Actually unbelievable shape; I can get Wendell to get a clear identification once we bring her back to the lab."

"Wow, good job there bones." Booth gave her a goofy grin. " But, isn't it kind of obvious she died from the rocks. I mean there are so many down here."

The crime scene was at the side of a hill near a field outside Richmond Virginia. The victim's body was on a group of medium size rocks that lied on the side of the hill.

" Booth, the wound is too big to have been hit with these rocks. There too small and the shape isn't accurate to the hole. Believe me I would have known this and have told you if it was the rocks. Who do you think I am?" She asked rather angry.

Booth suddenly realized it would have been better not to mess with his hormonal, pregnant girlfriend. It would just upset her more. " Okay, I understand your point there. Now I really need to call Hacker. He's not even aware I'm taking you out on this case. He won't be happy with me either." Booth got his cell phone out and prepared to call his boss.

" That maybe true Booth, but you're the father of our child and my boyfriend. I believe your word more than his. I know you can make decisions better than him too " She gave off a glowing grin."

"Thanks Bones. I appreciate that. Look, I got to go talk to Hacker then do some paperwork. So let me know when your squints have something." He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and left.

Brennan was back at her lab waiting for Wendell to finish figuring out who the victim was. She sat nervously in her office waiting for Angela to come in. Angela had recently come back to work after maternity leave and said she had something important to talk to Brennan about. Brennan had no idea what it could be either.

She glanced at her watch is was quarter past 4. Angela was already 15 minutes late. She figured that was understandable since she has a baby to look after. Angela decided not to use a nanny. She has their neighbor look after Michael when she's at work; but she's off more then she used to be.

In occurred to Brennan that she wouldn't be able to be at work as much once she had her baby; she figured it would be worth it. However it was going to make her busier than ever. I guess that's what she needed to prepare for.

As that thought ended she could hear Angela's unmistakable clanking of high heels coming through the lab floor. She was the only one that wore heels that made that much nose.

"Hey Bren, I know this is sudden but we need to talk." Angela shut the door of Brennan's office and sat down on the couch signaling Brennan to join her.

"Angela, what is it. You're beginning to worry me." Brennan quickly asked.

" Okay, this isn't too urgent but have you told Booth you love him?"

"How is this relevant? I mean Ange, Booth and I, we have a strong love connection. Saying those words don't really mean anything to me. We do love each other but I don't see a point in saying it."

"Okay, the only reason I'm saying that is because maybe you should start now. I really wanted to get this to you. Every time I see you two together, your adorable. A couple from a fairytale. You never say it though. I mean are you okay physically?

"Yes, Ange we are physical. We spend the night with each other and just go back between apartments. Now I really need to get back to work. Wendell should be telling me the victim's ID soon."

" Have you told your father your expecting. He's been in Hawaii all summer. As soon as the bowling alley case was closed he left."

"No, we talk once a week but I don't bring it up. Not even the fact that me a Booth are in a relationship Why?"

"Sweetie, your dad called the house today before I put Michael down for his nap. He's back from Hawaii. He is coming to see you tonight at your apartment. He wanted to surprise you but I think it's a good idea if I tell you before you gets the big shocker." Angela winced afraid of what Brennan might say.

"Angela, what time tonight?" Just then Wendell burst in with a eager look on his face.

"Dr. Brennan, I have the victim's name. It's Joni Mertz. She's 42 years old and lives in a suburb outside Virgina. She's been missing for three weeks now."

"Thank you Wendell. But you need to knock next time. I will call Booth immediately."

Wendell led himself out knowing something was going on.

"I better call Booth about the case and my father. We are going to have to face him soon." Brennan picked up her phone. "Ange, do you think he's going to be mad that I didn't tell him?"

"Sweetie, I wouldn't worry just about that. I would make sure he doesn't take down Booth."

"But he likes Booth. He's wanted us together."

Angela replied, " He may not love the scenario that he got his little girl pregnant out of wed lock. You know how father's are. Just prepare Booth for the big talk."

With that Brennan dialed Booth's number and was connected to him after a short time. "Booth, we have the victim and you're going to want to come back to the lab now. This instant to be exact, my dad's back."
