"Doctor, can you please tell us what's going on?" Temperance asked, grabbing the young man's arm as he exited the exam room.

"Miss you're going to have to wait for one of the residents to come and speak to you. I'm sure someone will be out shortly." The man smiled slightly before turning away from the couple and walking down the hall.

"Bones, relax a little. I'm sure everything be okay." Booth soothed as he came to stand close behind her, looking through the window into the room.

Tempe shook her head. "You're jumping to conclusions Booth. You know that I don-"

"Don't like me going with my gut, I know." He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her waist. As he began to lean in to kiss her cheek she pulled away from his grasp, wrapping her arms around herself. Booth sighed in defeat. "Its not completely your fault, Bones." She nodded from where she stood a good three feet from him, her eyes cast towards where the doctors were hovering. "I shouldn't have rushed you."

Temperance's eyes turned on him, anger and pain clearly evident in her crystal irises. "No, you shouldn't have. I found this baby. I feel as though I've made amends for the part I took. But honestly Booth, what did you do?" She moved closer to him, her arms remained over her chest in defiance. "You stood around and barked orders like a real man."

"That's not fair Bones." Booth answered quietly, reigning in his temper.

"No!" She yelled. "You know what's not fair is that that baby almost died and could be dying at this moment. What's not fair is that she'll never know her mother. She'll never understand that her mother probably did want her and just wanted to find herself and her child safety. That isn't fair."

Booth moved forward, his arms outstretched. "Temper-"

"Don't." She said harshly at first, her voice dropping in anger and landing in hurt and defeat. "Just don't."

A nearby door opened and an older woman stepped out. "Mr. and Mrs.-"

"I'm Dr. Temperance Brennan. This is my partner Agent Booth." Temperance explained as she approached the doctor quickly. "Is she-is she going to be okay?"

The doctor sent a sympathetic smile to the younger woman. "It seems as though she'll pull through." A sigh of relief escaped the couple; Temperance ran a hand through her hair as she attempted to keep her tears at bay. "She's on an IV for the moment. It's providing her with nutrients that she needs."

The couple nodded. "What now?" Booth asked.

"Well firstly, I need some information about the parents. I had heard that she was found in the woods about a day after birth." The doctor said with nervous glance between the partners.

"The mother is dead." Tempe answered grimly, before turning her body to the window and looking in as one of the nurses tucked in the little girl.

"And the father is MIA." Finished the Special Agent. "And yes, she was found in a state park in Maryland." The doctor nodded as she wrote a few things down on the chart.

"What's going to happen to her, Doctor?" Temperance asked, her gaze still remaining on the little girl.

The woman sighed. "She'll stay here until she's healthy. Which honestly should not be that long, perhaps the rest of the week. Then she'll be placed in a foster home until the father of a relative is found."

"Yeah." Booth sighed running a hand over his face. "We have people at the Jeffersonian looking into it."

The doctor nodded once again. "Very good. I suggest the two of you go home and rest. It's past midnight."

"Actually can I stay?" Temperance asked, turning to face the woman.

"I suppose that wouldn't be an issue. The nurses will be in to begin feeding her formula and you are welcome to help. My name is Dr. Karen Webber if you need me for anything." She said with a kind smile, handing a card to Booth.

"Thank you Dr. Webber." Booth responded. He watched as Temperance nodded to the doctor before pushing through the door and into the hospital room. Booth stood outside the room looking in.

Temperance walked soundlessly towards the incubator. She reached towards the whole slightly before pulling back and wrapping her arms beneath her breasts.

"You can reach in and touch her you know." Booth said quietly from where he now stood on the inside of the room.

She jumped slightly as she became acutely aware of his presence. "I-I know. I just don't want to alarm her."

"I think it'll make her feel better to know that she has someone with her." Booth said assuredly. "You could talk to her. Your voice is one of the few she's heard multiple times."

Temperance nodded as she began to approach the incubator once again. She reached a delicate hand into the side whole and placed it gently on the little girl's rising chest. "Hey you. Remember me?" She asked the baby. "I found you out there."

Booth felt the side of his trousers shake as his phone vibrated. He pulled it out of his pocket quickly and flipped it open. "Booth."

"Seeley. It's Cam." Said the gloomy voice of the woman on the other end.

"What's wrong, Cam?" He asked nervously. Booth's eyes met those of his girlfriend's on the other side of the room.

"How's the baby?" Questioned Cam evadingly.

"She's doing great. She'll make it." Booth sighed, Camille Saroyan was an open book to him and he knew when she was keeping something from him. "Now tell me what's going on Cam."

On the other end of the line Cam sighed and rubbed her temples with the thumb and forefinger of her right hand. "The mother's name was Sophia Davies. She was an eighteen-year-old orphan who went missing several months ago. The foster parents were the ones to put in the missing persons complaint."

Booth pressed his fingers to the bridge of his nose. "Alright. Thanks Cam. Can you have a file put together for me? I'll have a visit with the foster family tomorrow."

"Yeah. I'll get right on it and have Angela bring it over." Cam agreed. "How is she?"

"I already told-"

"No Seeley, how is Dr. Brennan?" She reworded.

"Oh. Sorry." He sighed. "She's okay too. We're all going to be fine."

"Good. Keep me updated." Cam said before disconnecting.

"Did she have any news?" Temperance asked from where she sat in the rocking chair beside the little girl.

"Yeah we have an ID." Booth said as he moved towards her and kneeled before her. Placing a hand on top of the one in her lap he brought her eyes to his. "Temperance."

"What's wrong Booth?" She begged, her voice wavering slightly.

"Her name was Sophia Davies. She went missing a few months ago." Booth explained.

"Ok." Tempe nodded.

"Bones." He released a heavy breath for the hundredth time. "She was a foster child."
