Authors Note: Ok I would personally like to thank babypoet for her encouraging review and criticism it really helps in the writing process. I'd also like to thanks Lynn11802 and just.beth for there reviews and criticism. Ok now back to the story this part is about Bren and Angela going shopping for a costume and it picks up right where i left off. Now here we go!
As Temperance and Jack slowly tip toed back into the class they couldn't help but be noticed by a dark curly haired girl in the back of the lecture hall.
Angela's face lit up as she saw Tempe and Jack walk in. "Brennan! In the back there are two seats!" She mouthed in a whisper. Temperance looked up in the back of the class to see Angela waving and pointing to two seats near her. Temperance tapped on Jack's shoulder and pointed to where Angela was sitting and motioned for him to follow her. Jack nodded and quickly followed Brennan up the stairs to the back of the classroom. Tempe scooted in and sat next to Angela and Jack took the seat next Brennan at the end of the row.
"I didn't know you were in this class did you just transfer?" Tempe whispered. "No I just never show up. The person I usually get my notes from is sick today so I decided to come and take notes for myself and her. I don't even think the professor knows I'm in this class." Angela smirked. Hodgins couldn't help but laugh and neither could Tempe. Angela looked over at Jack and asked with a smile, "Just who are you?" "I'm Jack Hodgins." he said holding out his hand, "and just who are you babe?" "I'm Angela Montenegro." Angela was a little taken a back she was the one who usually was forward. It was nice for a guy not to be shy. Temperance was usually bad at reading people but you would have to be physically blind, deaf, and mute to not see or feel the spark that was between these two.
Temperance and Jack took out there books and flipped to the page in the text the professor was lecturing on. The next hour passed in silence until Angela passed her notebook over onto Brennan desk. On the paper there was a couple of doodles and a note...(hey I got your note after this class we can go shopping if you want, I know a great costume shop down the street. Its pretty close to campus we can easily walk.) Brennan wrote back(sure sounds good. You got any ideas of what I should be? I haven't worn a costume in years.)(Yea but you have to wait and see! By the way where'd you find the hottie! if you haven't called dibs I'm calling them now!)Brennan smiled and gave her that shocked look which only earned her laughter from Angela.(we kinda ran into each other literally but I didn't call dibs or whatever so he's all yours.)(yea score one for me!)
All the sudden the sounds of the professor piped up with an announcement. "Ok class as you know today is dissection day. I want you to look to your right and look to your left. Say hello to your lab partners for the rest of the semester. Attendance is mandatory so if you want to pass the class you must be here for the rest of the semester."
Brennan and Jack looked immediately over at Angela who's face had a look of shock on it. "Damn it there goes my beauty sleep." "You could always give up the party every night." Brennan said matter of factly. Both Jack and Angela started laughing "what? What I say. Angela stop! Its a rational solution." "Ok, ok it wasn't that funny but if you want to join Phi Theta Phi you have to attend the partys." "Wait your in Phi Theta Phi?" Jack said looking at Angela "Yea I'm one of the top girls why?" "I'm in Beta Alpha I was the one who hosted the party last night. I thought I recognized you! Your the girl who was dancing on the tables yelling 'Viva Revolution!'." Brennan was the one laughing now."Ok maybe not one of my finer moments. So your The Infamous Jack 'Bug Man' Hodgins. I thought you'd be taller." Jack looked offended "Hey it's not size that matters it's how you use it!"
Before this fight escalated Brennan chimed in, "Hey enough we have to go get a table before their all taken and start our lab come on." The group walked down the stairs to the door at the end of the lecture hall. In the next room were rows and rows of lab tables with so many different types of tools on them it would take atleast two hours just to count them all. Brennan, Jack, and Angela took a table in the back so they could have some privacy. The professor walked to each table and handed each person a stack of papers with explicit instructions on what to do.
As Angela looked over the packet her face fell and got extremely white."Gross I don't know if I can do this." Brennan looked confused and looked at her packet to see what they were going to do. It didn't take to long for Brennan to see just what Angela had found and to understand her concerns. They were going to disect a human!Brennan walked over and put a hand on her shoulder, "It will be alright Ange. You don't have to look if you don't want to. You can just hand me and Jack the tools and take notes." Tempe said this in a simpathetic and concerned voice. Angela gave her and Jack a half smile, "Thanks I don't know if my stomach could take it." "Just let the man do the work." Jack said in a cocky tone. "Such a alpha male!" Tempe said jokingly.
Jack and Tempe got to work on the body. It didn't take them too long to finish the days work. Each one of them had their specialties. Tempe was able to identify each part of the body along with age, sex, and cause of death. While Jack was able to narrow down where the person was from just by particles in the hair and stomach. Angela sat at the table and handed tools and took notes on each step everyone took to find their conclusions. The group was done before anyone else. As they left they received death glares from all the other students who were still stuck on the third step.
As they stepped outside Angela and Brennan said goodbye to Jack and promised to meet up with him at the party. "I'll be dressed as Zorro. See ya there!" Jack said as he went down the side walk towards his last class.
Temperance and Angela walked towards the exit of campus. It was so weird for Tempe to actually have someone to talk to who didn't critize or make fun of what she said. "You know your the first person I've actually really talked to since i started going here." Tempe said this with hesitation she wasn't to sure if Angela would freak out or not. Angela smiled," Promise not to tell the other girls this, but your the first person I've been around where I can be myself. I would never tell them I'm only taking science courses to please my Dad, my real dream is to be a artist. They all think I'm this big party girl who is going to be some doctor or what not, they don't see me for Me. Do you understand?" Angela couldn't have put it better. "I think you pretty much summed up my entire life." Brennan said this with a sad smile.
As the girls walked they talked about school and what they were majoring in. Tempe told Angela about her dream of becoming a forensic anthropologist, to which Angela had no idea what that was and it took almost the entire time for Brennan to explain into terms Angela could understand.
They finally arrived at the store ten minutes later," Welcome to the Emporium!" Angela said walking in like she owned the place. "Alright lets get you a costume." In a matter of minutes Brennan's hands were full of about twenty different outfits."Ange I don't think we will have time to try all of these on. The party starts in two hours and you haven't had time to pick a costume out or shower." Angela looked at her watch then back at Tempe," It's ok haven't you ever heard of being casually late?" "Yes but I'm a pledge and I thought I had to be there early." At this Angela said with understanding, "Ok I think those are enough now go try them on."
Tempe went behind a purplr curtain and began to try them on. The first one she came out dressed as in a playboy bunny out fit that looked exactly like the one from legally blonde." NO!" said Tempe her cheeks scarlet red. Angela was laughing Tempe looked ridiculous with the ears on."Ok we'll scratch the bunny off. But before you go can you tell me how is Mr.Hephner these days?" Tempe took off her ears and threw them at Angela. The next costume was a pirate wench. Angela looked over the costume and said,"ummm not creative enough." Tempe tried on costume after costume but none seemed to fit. "This is hopeless I might as well just where a nice dress with a mask on and be done with it." Just then Angela came running over with a costume. "I've got it go try this on. It will be perfect and there won't be much makeup involved." Angela shoved Brennan behind the curtain. Seconds later Brennan came out wearing the costume. It was a navy blue short minnie skirt with a short navy blue collared shirt. Angela could not help but smile at Brennan,"Say hello to Officer Brennan. She commands you to cease and desist!" Brennan was dressed as a cop hat and all along with a badge that said federal body inspector on it. "I kinda like this one." Brennan said still slightly embarrassed about how short the skirt was. "No sweetie it's perfect. I personally like the hand cuffs, I can think of many ways to use them." Angela said giving Brennan a grin. Brennan went back into the dressing room and changed back into her clothes. The girls paid and then began their walk back to campus to get ready for the party of the year.
