Chapter 3

"Walking down an old dark alleyway with a twisted ankle is very hard"

Bones thought to herself. Sirens blaring in the background made concentrating on where she was going very difficult and hard to stay calm.

"Why were sirens going in the direction she came from? Did she hurt or worse yet kill someone? What if it was Booth or Parker or one of her friends? Oh, why do I have to be so insecure about everything that goes on around me?"

Tons of questions filled her head and swirled and twirled and made them never seem to end.

"Maybe now isn't the best time to search your brain for answers Tempe maybe you should sit rebandage your foot it seems to have been slowing you down."

Scared to look over her shoulder to see who was talking to her she shifted slightly and found a broken mirror. Adjusting slightly to the left Temperance was able to see who was talking to her like he knew her from back when they were kids. After seeing who it was she instantly did a 360 and kicked him to the ground. He winched at the pain he was now feeling in his upper chest area and groaned loudly.

"I may have been caught off guard when you burst into my home but I am fully aware of who you are and what you did. I will never let you touch or harm Parker again. If you don't believe me ask the one person who knows me best but I doubt that you will survive that conversation."

Ramsey smiled at Brennan with yellow teeth and all.

"And I personally believe Temperance that you would survive considering what just happened. Or do you not remember because it was too bad for you to handle."

Looking lost and deep in thought Bones tried to make sense of what happened early that would want to make Booth not talk to her.

Flashback

"Run Temperance we don't want to get caught with him like this."

Parker was slugged over Ramsey's shoulder beaten to a pulp. Sliding him off near a rundown alleyway they started to run again.

End of Flashback

It hit her she and Ramsey had hurt Parker Booth's only kid and he was NEVER going to forgive her. The only thing that didn't add up was why she did it? She absolutely adored Parker and would die for him but never hurt him. What was she thinking she was a loving person towards him.

"You remember know don't you I can't believe you actually forgot we just did that babe."

Stunned after hearing the words she ran in the opposite direction of him. With him right on her trail she started to feel dizzy and remembered that maybe this was a dream but she was definitely pregnant no matter if she thought different. The ground started to shake violently and everyone started to run and scream away from Brennan and Booth.

"Bones stay with me. Bones can you hear me? Please baby, do not give up on me now."

Sitting up in a quick motion made Brennan dizzy and she fell back onto the pillow. Nurses scurried around her room trying to get her heart beat steady and check her vitals etc… Looking to her right she saw Booth sitting there hold her hand murmuring something quietly not noticing she had awoken. Brennan tugged slightly to let him know that she was alright and she wanted to talk to him.

"I know I should have defended myself and Parker but, Booth I don't know how to put this."

Slightly confused on what she was trying to tell him he gently stood up and went to the end of her bed. Booth made sure no was near and gave a cocky grin towards her it was 4:47 a.m. their special time not that he knew it. He started to crawl up towards her still sleepy face leaving goose bumps everywhere he touched which made him want to keep this moment lasting as long as he could.

In the hallway

"PARKER CALM DOWN!"

Rebecca yelled at her son who was running up and down the halls to keep himself busy. A few nurses had tried to stop him but he just flew past them or squirmed free of their grip. Parker finally came to a stop in front of a huge police officer that must have been 7 feet tall. Parker slowly made his way over to his mother who now acted like she didn't know him. Parker whispered into her ear.

"Mommy I want to go see if Dr. Bones is better yet, and if she woke up."

Back in Bones' Hospital Room

Booth was now lying in Bones' bed with her cuddling up to his chest. Her auburn hair sprawled across his strong upper body and her legs in a tangled mess with his. There was a soft knock on the door followed by Rebecca and Parker entering the room. Two warm happy smiles greeted a stressed out women and a concerned little boy. Instantly Parker made his way over to Bones' side of the bed and jumped in and slid under the blanket and fell asleep on her arm. Rebecca and Booth had a conversation on who's going to get Parker after he leaves the hospital care and supervision. Meanwhile Brennan turned and faced the sleeping boy who was now part of the tangled family on the bed. At 6 a.m. Rebecca left for home so she could get some sleep Booth waved and took a sideways glance at the clock then snuggled up behind HIS Bones.
