A year and a half later...
"Do you, Temperance Deanne Brennan, take, Seeley Joseph Booth, to be your lawfully wedded husband; to have and hold 'til death do you part as long as you both shall live?" asked the priest. They shared a smile.
"I do" she said, proudly. The priest turned to Seeley.
"Do you, Seeley Joseph Booth, take, Temperance Deanne Brennan, to be your lawfully wedded wife; to have and to hold 'til death do you part as long as you both shall live?" Seeley grinned.
"I do"
"Well by the power invested in me by the state of Virginia, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride." You didn't have to tell Seeley twice. He pulled her close and kissed her deeply. She melted into him as they had finally became man and wife. They then all left for the reception. Jared, though didn't like it, had made a toast to them. Seeley had thanked him once he was done. Soon it was time for the bride and groom dance. She had a wedding gift for him. For three months now she had been pregnant. She hadn't told him yet.
"You look happy" he commented. She grinned.
"I am. In all my years I never thought I would be here, married and...all this is just really exciting. I'm so glad I have you to share it with you and them" she said. He was puzzled. She took his hand and laid it on her stomach. "They are your wedding gift from me" He was beaming.
"Wait, they?!" She smiled and nodded.
"Twins" He was all smiles as he leaned in close to her ear, "Want to get out of here?" he whispered, letting his lips brush her cheek as his hot breath caressed her ear and neck. She shivered.
"Yeah" she managed to get out. Her dad and, to their surprise, Jared helped them sneak away. They got out to the car and he pushed her playfully against it then trapped her. He started his assault on her neck. She moaned and held him as close as she could. They left for home and then made love all night.
Six months later...
"Seeley Booth I hate you!!" screamed Temperance as she pushed one last time to get baby number one out. They had decided to be surprise by the sex.
"Congrats it's a beautiful baby girl"
"Tabbitha" he whispered as he kissed her forehead. The nurse checked her. She had a little time to rest. She left saying she would be back in a bit.
"A baby girl" he beamed. Temperance chuckled, "Lemme guess, you are going to spoil her rotten." she said, "Well I think she is going to have you tied around her little finger" she said. They shared a smile. Soon she was back to pushing to get their last baby out.
"Congrats it's another girl" said the nurse. She took her to get dried off.
"Elizabeth" they whispered in unison.

"So that's how we came to be"
"Lovely isn't sis?"
"Yes very. We look so cute and dad was so happy"
"And proud. Poor mom. She was tired."
"You guys are probably wondering how they split. Well mom got mad at dad for some reason."
"Yeah we aren't real sure on the specifics of it but she got mad that he spent more time working on his cars than he did with us."
"Yeah but dad got mad cos mom was always at the Jeffersonian so much."
"They both had different career choices"
"Lets go back in time to see it"
"Grab the popcorn Tabby"

Eight or nine months later...
"I'm sick of this Seeley!" she shouted.
"Well welcome to my world. I'm tired of coming home to see you and the kids and you have gone to that Jefferson place. I don't like coming home to the kids and the baby sitter" he said.
"JEFFERSONIAN!! UGH! That's it I can't take this anymore. Maybe getting married was a bad idea." she said as she walked to their bedroom.
"What?" he asked. He felt almost like she had smacked him in the face-with a brick.
"I'm leaving" she said, "I want to pursue a job at the Jeffersonian, Seeley. I want to work there. That's why I've been there so much. A job offer has been given to me and I want to take it. Which means-"
"Which means you will have to move to DC. What about us? The girls? Our girls?" he asked.
"We each get one girl" she said plainly. He was trying hard not to cry.
"I want Tabs" he said, well croaked. She sighed and picked up the bag. He took it and laid it down on the bed. He then took off the necklace with half a heart on it and slid it in her bag. It had his initials on it.
"Give this to Lizzy when she's older" he said. She took off her necklace and slipped it in his hand. It was the other half of the heart but with her initials on it.
"And you give this to Tabby when she's older. I love you guys so much and I will miss you more." And with that she and Elizabeth were gone.

"Oh that was sad. Why didn't dad try to stop her?"
"He loved her too much to stop her from going after something that made her happy."
"If he loved her then he would have went after her, right"
"I don't know Tabby."
"Didn't dad make her happy?"
