What do you mean Angela is pestering you? I'm not even halfway to the Hoover yet! I suppose you'll just have to tell her you'll tell her eventually.
RE: Do you want her to know about us or not?
Message 27
Received: 7:48

You make it sound as if it's something amazing, something unbelievable… You and my cousin hit it off when you met at the pool party, but I thought he was gay… It's not one of my family members is it? Or an ex?
RE: No, Ange. It isn't a family member or an ex. Listen, Booth's here, I need to turn off the phone while we interview a suspect.

Where did you go? Zack found something on the skeleton.
RE: I'm going to lunch, Angela. I'm sure that Zack can analyse the bones himself.
Message 34
Received: 11:08am
From: Zack
Dr Brennan, I know that you are going to lunch but the victim has a strange deformity on the right ulna and lumbar vertebrate that I have never seen. It's microscopic, which is logically why you missed it during your examination.
I only found it when I was scraping some particulates for Hodgins.
RE: I'll be back soon Zack.
Message 35
Received: 11:10am
From: Booth
It's okay Bones. I know how busy you are. Make it an early dinner instead?

From: Booth
Bones, did you get Cam's message? Where are you? She couldn't find you in your office. I'm thinking that Brian has been holding out on us. I'll be

RE: I'm with Dad.
Message 40

Tempe, you left your ring on the table beside the sink from when you took it off to clean the beaker. I'll put it on your desk.
RE: No! Someone might see it! Put it in your wallet and bring it with you when you come over tonight!

Received: 4:20pm
From: Max
You really should tell them already sweetheart. Ange has been hounding me constantly for information about your boyfriend. She'll be annoyed to find out that he's actually your fiancé.
RE: We're planning on telling her next week. Thank you for keeping our secret
Message 42
Received: 4:23pm
From: Max
I'm glad to help, just please be sure that I'm not around when Ange finds out. She'll be very annoyed that I knew and didn't tell her.
See you tonight.

You are so lucky Bren. You have Max and Booth to beat up what-ever-his-name-is if he ever hurts you.

You know Bren, if I really wanted to find out about your love life, I could check on all the fan sites out there…

Message 48
Received: 5:13pm
From: Angela cell
I would and I will!
RE: There can't be that much out there! It's my private life, I want it private!
Message 49
Received: 5:15pm
From: Angela cell
Believe me, there is a lot! I wouldn't have to look if you just told me. It's slightly embarrassing really, your fans know before your best friend…
RE: Please, Angela, don't look! I will tell you, I just need some time to sort some things out!
Message 50
Received: 5:15pm
From: Booth
Angela is threatening to do what? How much stuff about us can there be out there? And how much is Angela contributing?
RE: Probably less then she was before she gave up on getting us together. Ended up happing anyway…
