"Hello? Anybody there?... Hello?" a voice came out of the phone. Hodgins walked up to his shocked daughter and took the phone out of her hands and started talking to her.

"Hi, Brennam, I'll come and pick you up… yer course that's fine with Angela... You can have tea with us and the kids at tell us about the conference. Ok see later" Hodgins hung up on her and turned around to look at everyone.

"I'm going to pick up Temperance, sort everything out before we get back" he moved to kiss Angela, picked up his key and walked out of the room. No one moved or spoke for ages. Angela decided to break the silence.

"Lucy, come out of the cardboard, please" Angela asked sweetly. Lucy stood there for a second and decided it was now or never. She stood next to Minnie who was still in shock from opening the cardboard and finding her in there. Angela stood there staring at Lucy. She had long brown- auburn hair which was just above her shoulders. She stared into Lucy's eyes and saw both of her best friends inside her.

"You are certainly Booth and Bren's daughter" she walked up to Lucy and gave her a hug. Lucy hugged her back not knowing what to do.

"I've missed you, my beautiful goddaughter" Angela whispered into Lucy ear. Angela pulled out of the hug and stared at Luc for a bit longer.

"What are we going to do with you?" Angela asked.

"Do send me back to Jack's house I hate it here, Loraine is terrible to me" Lucy pleaded to Angela.

"Mum, let her stay here, I want to really get to know her. If what you are saying is true and she is Tempe and Booth's daughter, she's family" Minnie said surprising Michael and Lucy. Minnie smiled at Lucy, who smiled back.

"We can't do that, Brennam coming back. We can't just go, "Hi Bren, guess who this? It your daughter, she'd have a heart attack" Ange replied.

"I've got it! We'll give her another name. It has been 10 years and with a different name, she might not notice" Michael said excited.

"It could work, I've never even seen her before, and the last time she saw was 10 years ago" Lucy said hoping the plan will work.

"What we going to call you?" Minnie asked

"What about Emily Thompson?" Michael thought off the top of his head. They all nodded in favour.

"Ok, now Emily will you help me set the table?

They heard the car pull up and two people talking when the key went into the door .Lucy heart started thumping hard. She was going to see her mother, her mother! The woman who gave her up for a reason she did not know. Michael grabbed her hand for reassurance. He smiled at her who smiled back.

"Hello, I'm back. The conference was so boring but I got a phone call saying Booth is coming back next week! Hello Ange I have missed you so much!" Temperance Brennam went up hug her best friend. Temperance went round to each child and hugged them all. Then she got to Lucy.

"Bren, this Michael's friend Emily, she's just moved next to Jack's house. Her mum asked if she could stay with up for a couple of weeks while her parents go off on work" Ange made up on the spot.

"Hi" Lucy said nervously. Temperance stared at her for a long time, wondering who she reminded her of, She look's just like Lucy would like at that age Tempe thought to herself and then realised they were standing there in silence for a long time

"Hi, please to meet you" Tempe shook her hand.

"Now, what are we having Thai or Chinese?" Tempe asked while Ange and her moved into the kitchen. Lucy knew it was going to be a long night.
