"You were right." Booth looked up from his desk, surprised to see Bones standing in his doorway at seven p.m.
"About what?"
"I changed my mind," she continued as she settled into a chair across from him.
"Again, about what?"
"Children. More specifically, having them."
Booth did a victory arm pump, stopping when he saw Bones' startled look.
"Why does this make you so happy?" she asked, leaning forward in curiosity.
"Because…it means I was right?"
"No, when you're happy about that you get this smug look in your eyes."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"…Oh."
"So what about this situation makes you jubilant?"
"…Now that I think about it, I'm not really sure."
--The next morning, in Brennan's Office --
"I need a donor!" Brennan groaned, dropping her head into her hands in frustration.
"What's wrong, sweetie?" Angela asked, striding in with two coffees and a plate of muffins.
The two females sat on the couch, Angela listening with growing excitement as Brennan explained the situation.
"Why not have Booth do it?"
"What?!"
"I mean, he obviously wants to. Not to mention you told me he's great with Parker," Angela reasoned.
"He's my partner! The only feelings he has for me are purely--"
"Purely what, Bones?" The man in question asked, sauntering in to snatch the last muffin.
"Nothing!"
"She wants you to be her baby daddy!" Angela squealed, leaping to her feet. She hugged Booth before dashing from the room to spread to "news."
"Really?" Booth asked, smug look firmly in place as he settled onto the couch right next to Bones.
"I have no idea what she was talking about."
"I'm sure."
"I don't!"
"So you don't want to have my baby."
"….I never said that."
