Parker jumped out of Rebecca's car and raced into the house, he bounded up the steps to his bedroom, taking steps two a time. Once inside he grabbed his treasure box from under his bed, he sat it on the bed, then climbed up beside it.

Parkers' treasure box was where he kept everything important, everything that wasn't too big, of course. At the very top of the box was his favourite picture in the whole wide world. It was of him, Daddy and Dr. Bones. He was sitting on Daddy's shoulders, but leaning so that his arms were around Dr. Bones' neck. Parker smiled at the picture before setting it down. Next came pictures of Rebecca, his baby photo, one of just him and Daddy, then one of his first goldfish. He moved his first tooth out of the way so he could get to the six cards at the bottom of the box. Parker rolled the rubber band off of the cards, "Dr. Bones, Daddy, Dr. Cam, Dr. Jack, Dr. Zack," He whispered under his breath, reading the names off of the cards, then he came to the last one, "Angela!" He crowed. He threw the cards on the bed and, holding Angela's card tightly in his hand, crept out of his room.

Once into the hallway, he turned into Parker Booth: Super Spy. Holding the card in his hands like an imaginary gun he scurried quietly down the steps. Peering around to make sure that Mommy couldn't see him, Parker grabbed the cordless phone from the kitchen counter. Parker stuck the phone in his pocket. Looking around to make sure Mommy wasn't in sight. Parker ran back up to his room. Once safely on his bed with the door jammed, Parker pulled the phone back out of his pocket.

He pressed the 'talk' button and began to dial the number on the card circled in red. It rang three times.

"You have reached the one, the only Angela Montenegro, how can I help you?" Angela greeted.

"It's Parker," Parker said, not quite sure how to react to her lengthy greeting.

"Parker? Honey, why are you calling me?"

"I wanted you to know what I did."

"Honey, what did you do?" Angela tucked the phone between her shoulder and ear, slipped out of bed where Hodgins was sleeping and went into the kitchen.

"You can't tell Daddy, or Dr. Bones, or Mommy."

"Did you do something bad, Parker?"

"No! Well, I don't think it was bad, but Mommy and Daddy might not agree with me, 'cause Mommy didn't seem very happy when she thought it was an accident."

"Parker, what did you do?"

"You have to promise that you won't tell them," Parker insisted.

"All right, I promise."

"I was at Daddy's this morning when Dr. Bones came over. We were talking about mummies and she was telling me a cool story. I was thinking 'bout what you said last Sunday, about how Dr. Bones makes Daddy really happy, and I saw it, I saw how happy she made him. I was thinking about how if she was his girlfriend then Daddy would be happy all the time." Parker paused for breath.

"Aww, that's sweet, but that doesn't explain why you're calling me." Angela smiled, maybe Booth was right, maybe Parker was spending too much time around her. Then Angela shook her head. Naw, she thought, and if, by any chance, it brings Booth and Bren closer, well, what can I do?

"I was gettin' there. So, I thought about how Jimmy's daddy got a new wife, and how he calls her 'Mommy Carol'. If Jimmy called his Daddy's wife Mom, what if I called Dr. Bones Mom, so I did."

Angela's jaw dropped. "You called Bren Mom?" She asked, astonished.

"Bren?" Parker questioned.

"That's what I call Dr. Bones, Parks."

"Oh, well, she got this funny look on her face, so did Mommy and Daddy. I pretended like I didn't know what I did 'cause I know that Mommy wouldn't like it. I didn't like havin' to pretend, but I helped, so it was good, right?" Parker asked, looking for reassurance.

"Well, Parker, grown-ups have very complicated relationships, sometimes, but, I think that what you did was okay. Was Dr. Bones still there when you left?" Inside Angela was jumping for joy. If this didn't do anything to get those two moving, nothing would.

"Yes. Just before I left, I said 'I love you Momma Bones'. That's okay, right, 'cause I know who my real Mom is, and I love her, and I love Dr. Bones too, but not in the same way." Parker said in a rush.

"Calm down, Parks. I'm glad you told me this, but for now, let's just keep it our little secret, okay? You did nothing wrong but . . ." Angela didn't know how to explain this to a seven-year-old.

"Don't worry, Angela, I get it." Parker smiled, even though she couldn't see it. He felt better now that Angela knew.

"Great, Parker. This is really great."

"I gotta go, Mommy's coming. See you soon." Parker said.

"Thanks for calling Parker, talk to you later."

Angela said her goodbyes, hung up, and laid the phone on the counter. She stared at the little black thing silently for a few seconds then screamed as loud as she possibly could while jumping up and down. "THIS IS THE GREATEST THING EVER! I LOVE THAT KID!" She cried.

"What's going on?" Hodgins appeared in the doorway, bleary eyed, wondering what the hell Angela was doing.

Angela stopped jumping, smoothed out her face, took a deep breath, smiled, and calmly said, "Nothing." And walked out.

Hodgins was left to stare confusedly after her.

I don't own Bones. Suggestions are welcome, hope y'all like it enough to review. Coming up, Angela confronts Brennan.

"You have to feel something more than frienship for him, you have too."

Brennan, currently fearing for Angela's sanity, said, "I'm sorry, Ange, but whatever you're talking about doesn't apply to me."
