Even though Hannah wasn't exactly happy that her boyfriend had been comforted by his partner instead of her she decided to push that to the side and make the best of the weekend.

As they all sat around the dinner table, Parker had been talking non-stop then he tapped Mandy on the shoulder and whispered something into her ear. Mandy rolled her eyes.

"Dad, Parker wanted to go get ice cream." She said bluntly.

"Mandy, you were supposed to say YOU wanted to get ice cream too!" Parker exclaimed, "Then he defiantly would have said yes if we both wanted to!"

Hannah was about to take a bit of her food but stop once she heard Mandy call Booth, dad. His partner's child staying over was bad enough, but that was the last straw.

Booth not paying attention to Hannah's look of shock just laughed amusingly at Parker and Mandy's pointless back and forth.

"If I say we can go get ice cream will you two stop fighting?" Booth asked.

"We're not fighting." Mandy said, Booth always thought Mandy was as stubborn and Brennan.

"Yeah dad, if we were fighting you would know." Parker finished.


After ice cream, they all headed back to Booth's apartment where they stayed up half the night watching movies and playing on Parkers X-box. Parker and Mandy both had fallen asleep on the floor, Booth got up and turned off the T.V and went into his bedroom. Hannah was sitting in the bed reading a book; she shut it once Booth came into the room.

Booth was about to climb into bed when he notice Hannah's eyes staring him down.

"What's wrong?" Booth questioned.

"Nothing, it's just…don't you think it's a little weird that Dr. Brennan's daughter calls you 'dad'?" Hannah questioned, trying to put her thoughts as delicately as she could.

"How could you say something like that?" Booth shot up out of the bed, "Bones and I are the only people that girl has had since her mother was killed!"

"I know Seeley, you've told me before, but do you not understand where I'm coming from?" Hannah exclaimed.

"No I don't, she may not be my biological child, but she is just as much my child as Parker is. Sorry Hannah, but last time I checked children before girlfriends." With that Booth stormed out of the room, he decided he would sleep on the couch tonight.

Mandy woke up with the smell of pancakes in the air, she stood up from the floor stretching being carefu


l not to step on the still sleeping Parker.

"Good morning." Mandy greeted Booth who was in the kitchen making breakfast.

"Moring, did you sleep well?" Booth replied.

"Yeah, for the most part."

"For the most part?" Booth questioned looking confused.

"I heard you and Hannah fighting…" Mandy trailed of looking guilty.

"Oh," Booth said feeling bad, "I'm sorry, you shouldn't have heard that."

"Its fine, I guess I understand how Hannah feels."

"No, there was no reason for her to say that, and you know that. This is definitely not the time to compartmentalize like your mother, now is the time to get mad like me." Booth said half joking, half not.

Mandy smirked, "It's pointless to get mad, it's over with."

Right then Hannah walked into the kitchen, "What's over with?" she questioned.

Mandy looked over at Booth, "Nothing, I'm going to wake up Parker since breakfast is about finished."

When Mandy walked out of the kitchen Hannah took the opportunity to talk to Booth.

"Seeley, I'm sorry. I was way out of line last night."

Booth was setting the table, "Yeah, ya think."

Hannah was getting agitated from not receiving his full attention. "Look at me Seeley!"

Booth was shocked, he stopped what he was doing and gave her is attention.

"I'm trying apologizing to you and you won't even look at me!" Hannah exclaimed about to cry.

Booth, being Booth felt bad for making her cry, he went over and hugged her, "Look I'm sorry Hannah I'm acting like a jerk."

Hannah sniffled, "It's alright I guess it's pay back from me acting like a jerk last night."

Meanwhile

"Parker wake-up," Mandy said gently shaking him, "come one dad's fixed your favorite, pancakes."

With that Parker shot up and ran towards the kitchen, but quickly stopped.

"What is it?" Mandy questioned.

"Hannah and dad are hugging." Parker said.

Mandy noticed the hurt in his voice, "Do you not like Hannah?"

Parker shook his head no, "You know what Parks I'm not exactly crazy about her either."

"Really?"

"No," Mandy replied with a slight chuckle, "but my mom says that we should like her because she makes dad happy."

Parker pondered this, "But Bones makes dad happy, why can't they date?"

Mandy knew the answer to the question, but wasn't sure if Booth would want her to tell Parker, "I'm not sure." She lied, "Now come on lets go eat."


The rest of the week went by with no drama, purely fun. It was Sunday afternoon, Parker was playing his X-box again, and Mandy was sitting on the couch beside of Hannah who was on her laptop. Mandy wondered if she ever got off of that thing, just then the door bell rang.

"Can you get that?" Hannah asked, Mandy just rolled her eyes and went to answer the door.

"Hey mom." Mandy greeted Brennan. Booth emerged from the kitchen; he had been cleaning up from lunch since Hannah never really did anything.

"Hey Bones, come in."

"Did you guys have fun?" Brennan questioned moving into the apartment.

"Yes, always." Booth replied smiling.

"Dr. Bones!" Parker exclaimed throwing down his controller and giving her a hug.

"Geez, I can barely get him off of the thing, but once you come in he doesn't pay it any attention." Booth said shocked.

"What can I say, he likes me better." Brennan said smirking repeating what he had told her in Sweets office. "Hello Hannah."

"Hello Temperance." Hannah replied with a fake smile. The door bell rang again this time Booth answered the door.

"Hello Rebecca." Booth greeted.

"Hey mom!" Parker said happily.

Rebecca stepped into the apartment as well, "Hello Dr. Brennan." Rebecca greeted her.

Booth was starting to feel uncomfortable having his ex-girlfriend, his girlfriend, and the women he truly love all in the same house.

Brennan picked up on his discomfort, even though she wasn't entirely sure what it was for."Are you ready to leave Mandy?"

She nodded, "Let me go get my things."


I know this is a very weird way to end the chapter, I guess it would be called a 'cliffhanger' or it could also be called, 'I don't know how to continue this chapter so I'm just leaving it like this', which ever you prefer. Reviews are loved!
