Disclaimer: nope sadly I do not own bones or the characters; only the story and B&B's kid which both came from my wacko imagination.
Chapter 3: The Long Awaited Confrontation
So last time I was talking to you guys we left off where my psycho parents FINALLY realized they loved each other. Geez after all those years they finally opened their eyes. Ok so let's start off where we last left off; my mom and my dad in her office. This is gonna be good.
Around 9 pm in Brennan's Office….
Bones slowly walked into her office and tried to ignore her partner. There he was, sitting on her couch wearing an apologetic smile.
Booth: "Hey Bones!"
Bones: "Good evening Agent Booth". With a blank look on her face. She walked towards her desk and began collecting her belongings.
Booth: "Awww come on Bones, you're not still mad at me are you?"
Bones: "I am not mad!"
Booth: "Really?? Cause from here you look pretty mad."
Bones: "I am not mad Booth! I am upset."
Booth: "That's the completely same thing!"
Bones: "No its not, mad and upset have very similar yet completely different definitions. I could get you a dictionary if you'd like to see for yourself. Although I don't believe I have one in my office, I should look in…"
Booth: Interrupting her. "Geez Bones. I came here to tell you that I was gonna let you use my stuff and you start giving me an English lesson; you know what I think I'll just leave." He started heading towards the door. Leaving a shocked Brennan behind.
Bones was completely silent. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. Booth was going to let her have his baby. She didn't know what to do or say so she did something very out of character for her, she ran after him and once she caught up to him she threw herself at him and gave him one of the best 'guy hugs' Booth had ever gotten. He didn't know what to do, this hug felt so right, so he hugged her back. After a few seconds, Brennan finally spoke up.
Bones: "Thank you Booth."
Booth: "Hey no problem Bones, you know I'd do anything for you."
They separated from their hug and started to walk back towards Brennan's office. Once they were back in her office they both sat down on her couch. Both lost in their own train of thought. Then out of nowhere Bones spoke up again.
Bones: "So what made you change your mind?"
Booth was not expecting that question at all. He hadn't really given much thought to what he would tell her, to tell you the truth he was kind of hoping she wouldn't start interrogating him, but he knew his Bones and he knew she loved to know all the facts. So he began to think of a good reason, he couldn't come up with anything so he decided that like always, honesty was the best policy. He would tell her the truth, well at least part of it.
Booth: "Well I figured I wasn't your only option, so when you left I started thinking about you having a baby using someone else's 'stuff'", and it made me so mad, he thought "and I started thinking what if this guy is a jerk and tries to hurt you or the baby. I can't let that happen. So I decided that if you were gonna have a baby why not have it with me, I mean you are my best friend, and I know I would never hurt you or the baby. Plus, I can't wait to have another shot at trying to be a good father."
Bones: "Booth you are an excellent father, don't ever doubt that."
Wow, Booth thought, I just said the longest and most heartfelt speech of my life and that's all you got from it? But who was he kidding, he knew his Bones very well and he knew that she was just trying to focus on the part of the conversation that didn't involve her emotions so that she wouldn't have to face them.
Booth: "Thanks Bones, but I'm kind of hoping that this time I get to be more involved. You know I barely even got to see parker when he was younger."
Bones couldn't believe her ears. He wanted to be a part of this child's life, not just donate and pretend like nothing ever happened. Maybe he did feel something for her. No, she thought, he just wants to be a part of the child's life, not mine. But a part of her brain re-winded back to his speech. It had made her feel so happy to hear him talk like that. He actually cared about her, maybe she did have a chance. Maybe, after spending so much time with her and the child, he would start to love her back, and then maybe they could become a family. A real family.
While Bones was having her little epiphany, Booth was doing some thinking of his own. Geez what's Bones thinking in that big brain of hers, he thought. What if she was scared? What if she ran away to do a dig in some foreign country again like she always did when she was faced with a problem she couldn't fix. Or what if she didn't want him to be a part of the child's life? What if she merely thought of him as a donor, not the father of her child? He decided to bring all his doubts to an end and started to speak up.
Booth: "Look Bones I'm sorry. If you don't want me to be involved in the child's life it's ok, really I can live with that."
Bones: "Wait no you have to be involved in this child's life!" Wow can you sound anymore desperate, Brennan asked herself. "I mean every child deserves to have a mother and a father and I find it highly unfair of us to deny this child that right."
Booth: With a big smile. "You really mean that bones?"
Bones: "Of course I do Booth."
Booth: "Thanks Bones. So what do we do first?"
Bones: "Well I'll have to call my doctor and tell her that we are indeed going through with this and once she gives me all the details I'll let you know what the first step is."
Booth: "Ok then Bones. Let's go." Shoving her towards the door.
Bones: "But Booth its ten o'clock, I highly doubt that my doctor will be in her office at this time."
Booth: "Not to the doctor Bones, to the diner. I know you haven't eaten all day so don't you even dare tell me you're not hungry."
Bones: "Fine Booth, but I get to drive!" Reaching for his keys.
Booth: "Oh no you don't. My car, my keys, I drive." He put his arm around her shoulders and led her towards the door.
Bones: "You're such an alpha-male."
Booth: "You know you love it Bones."
Oh he had no idea how much she really did. So they exited the Jeffersonian and drove off towards the diner. They ate their usual meals and afterwards Booth dropped Brennan off at her house, and then went home to try to get some sleep. As the both tried to sleep, Booth and Brennan couldn't stop thinking about what was about to happen. They knew this was gonna turn their worlds upside down, but they didn't care. As long as they were together, they could make it through anything. They both shut their eyes and drifted off into deep slumber, both with a huge smile spread across their lips. Yup everything was going change; in a good way.
