Angela stood by the door with Cam at her side. They were both waiting for Brennan. Cam was the first to speak when the pregnant woman was in ear shot. "I'm going to speak with him. I did not know he followed." She stated honestly. Brennan nodded as she looked to her two friends standing by her door. She did not care what they said or did to make him leave at this point.
"Thanks. I need to go lay down." She said looking to Angela than to Cam. She pushed past them walking into the house that she had bought nearly two months ago. Angela had done most of the painting in the house since she could not paint. Her friends hand been a great help in helping her with the move. She had wanted to do it much sooner when she could have been more of a help but it all her awhile to find just the right house.
Placing her hand on the cold oak railing, Brennan walked up the staircase to the upper level. She stopped as she reached the last step. She could see the room that would soon be the room of her daughter. The door was cracked open. Angela had forbidden Brennan to go into the room until she brought home the baby. A small smile formed seeing some of the newly painted wall. Turning on her heel, Brennan walked to her room. She kicked off her shoes and changed into a pair of oversized sweats before laying on her queen sized bed. She whole body ached. Her back, feet, everything. She wished she had someone to rub her back and tell her everything was going to be okay. That all the pain was worth it in the end. On top of the body ache, she was not feeling well.
Angela and Cam looked to each other as Booth and Hannah stood by the car. They waited until Brennan was in the house before moving towards the two females. "I'll go make her something to eat and make up a bath for her. She was complaining about her feet hurting before." She said walking inside as Booth and his new blonde come over to them.
Cam looked to Booth and Hannah. "Coming here was not a smart idea." She said putting her hands on her hip. "I know that you want to be apart of this but it needs to be on her terms. Not when you feel like coming around." she said looking to Hannah most of the time.
Booth looked to Cam, putting his arm would Hannah's wasits. "I have the right to be here Cam. She is carrying my child. I have the right to be here, helping. I should be the one picking out the crib that my daughter will be sleeping in, the clothes she will be wearing the day she comes home." He said as Hannah nodded. "he is the father."
Cam nodded. "You are right. He should be. But it's not fair to Brennan that he is there to pick out those things then leave and only be there when he wants to be. That she will be the one up all night trying to get her back to sleep. She's never been around a new born. She bearly knew what to do with Andy and now she is going to be a lone to learn it all with her own child. She's going to have no help at home. She'll bring home the baby and most likely will not get any sleeping for the first two months than come back to work. So Brennan wants to have a say in what Booth can now do and when he can come over."
Angela was just behind Cam now, holding the food for Brennan. Booth shook his head. "No. That's not fair. I should be helping get everything ready. And so what? She'll be alone at night. There are tons of single mothers." Hannah was the one speaking this time. Booth looked to his girlfriend then to his exlover.
Cam looked to the blonde, shaking her head. "That may be true. But they are not socially awkward with Bren. She never planned to do this alone.' She said looking to Booth. "She's sleeping and Ange and I are finishing the room before the guys get here to put it together. Leave before she wakes. Call her tomorrow." Cam said as she turned to leave the two standing outside.
Hannah looked to Booth as the door was closed in their face. "She has no right to keep you out of the house. Her name is not on the papers. Temperance name is. Go in. Go talk to her. You have everything right to be here helping until the baby comes. Than you get to see her in the mornings and afternoons and leave before dinner, leaving Brennan to care for the baby."
Booth nodded listening to what the woman next to him said. She was right. He had the right to be here, to help put the room together. He had the right to be there once the baby came and leave at night to go home to his girlfriend. But Cam was also right. He was already a part time after with little rights. He had some because Parker held his last name and his name was on the birth papers. If Brennan wanted to, she could leave his name off of them. He would have no claim to the baby at all. That scared him.
Booth looked to Hannah. "Im going to take you home and come back. I want to see if she'll talk to me without you here." He knew it sounded harsh but it was the truth. He wanted to see how Brennan would react to just him being there. Hannah nodded and turned to walk away. "Can we at least something to eat first?" She asked going over to the SUV.
Angela walked up the stairs as Cam went through the bags from their shopping trip. She was sorting out the clothes, blankets and other iteams that needed to be washed. Cam needed something to do while she waited for Angela.
"Sweetie, you need to try and eat something." Angela spoke in a tone as she walked into her best friends room. "Once you eat, I'll make you up a nice hot bath to try and help with the soreness." She said hoping it would help her. Brennan looked over her shoulder to the door when she heard Angela. "I'm not all that hungry." She said shifting on the bed and pushing herself to sit up. "What I really want is a back rub and someone to rub my feet." She said looking over, knowing it would not happen that way.
"I know you do. But a bath will help. Cam and I are almost finished with the room. The guys are out getting stuff for dinner tonight and then will be everything together." She said sitting on the bed. "Now please try to eat. I know you're not hungry but that little girl needs you to eat."
Brennan gave in knowing Angela had a point. She needed to eat her for daughter. She took the tray and eat the food upon it until she could no longer. Angela lept her word and started her a bath.
Meanwhile, Booth had taken Hannah to eat than back to his place. He gave her the key, told her the number and that he would be home soon. He left again going back to Brennan's home. By the time Booth had gotten back Brennan had finished with her bath and was not sitting in the living room, a baby book open on her lap. Everyone else was up in the baby's room finishing up the last of the painting and getting everything in order. She wanted to be there with them. She shifted, feeling uncomfortable. She did not like how the baby had shifted, it was putting a lot of pursure on her lower back.
Booth walked up the the door and knocked. He took a step back, waiting for someone to answer. Brennan looked over and groand. She did not want to get up. She did not want to move at all. Pushing herself up from the couch with the help of the near by table, she made it to her feet. Putting a hand on her back, she made her way to the door. A pain hit her lower abdomin and back. She put it off at the braxton hicks contractions she had read about in the many books she had read.
Opening the door, she saw Booth standing there. "What do you want?" She asked as she felt the pain again a few minutes later. She really did not stress now and wanted to go sit down again.
Booth looked her over when he saw the pain on her face. "What's wrong?" He asked. Brennan shook her head. "Nothing. I'm fine. What do you want?" She asked again.
"I have a right to be there."
