3.......
While he was forced to wait for the doctor, Booth raced downstairs and moved his SUV out of the emergency parking area. He grabbed the two bags from the back of the car that contained their emergency change of clothes and toiletries. It had taken him exactly seven minutes and was now back outside her room
And he waited....
It seemed like an eternity..... Bones' door remained closed.....and he waited.
Booth rang Max first and then Ange, filling them in with the little information that he knew. He told them there was nothing they could do here at the hospital, and he would ring them with more news as soon as he knew something. He then rang the FBI and explained that they needed to reassign the case that he was supposed to be working on.
He leaned back in his chair........ and he waited.
While sitting there Booth began to pray, he thought Bones would understand under the circumstances!
And he waited.
It had now been thirty minutes since Booth had been kicked out of Bone's room. He made up his mind....once he finally got back in there, if they thought they could kick him out again, he was taking out his gun and shooting anyone wearing white! Damn he wasn't afraid to get Federal on them! He wasn't leaving her again!
He sat there silently and fumed.....and he waited...... and he decided then and there that he was not good at waiting.
The door to her room finally opened and an intern wheeled out Bones on her bed and headed down the corridor. The doctor and nurse came through the door and made their way over to a now standing Booth.
'How is she doc?' Booth asked anxiously.
'Temperance is going to be fine, but I'm afraid she has lost her baby. I'm so sorry.' the doctor said.
There was a pause while Booth digested that information......his eyes filled with tears. 'Baby?' he whispered.
'You didn't know she was pregnant?' the doctor asked.
Booth didn't take time to explain the whole insemination situation. Instead he brokenly whispered: 'We had been trying.' He took a deep breath as a stray tear slipped down his cheek.
The doctor motioned him to sit down. He gently stated the facts. 'I think she was approximately ten weeks pregnant. She appears to be anaemic and has also lost a lot of blood due to the miscarriage. But she is going to be fine.'
The doctor went on to explain that they had taken Temperance to theatre and gave him details on the procedure they needed to do. They were also going to give her a blood transfusion. She should be back in her room in just over an hour. And then, because the doctor thought he needed to hear it again, he told Booth Temperance was going to be okay.
'I promise we will take excellent care of her Mr Booth.' said the nurse. 'Will you be okay here alone?'
He nodded. He felt like he kept saying the same thing over and over again...but said it anyway.... 'Please take care of her'
And he waited.....
