LAST:
She had to tell Booth.
Brennan sprinted into the bedroom, stopping at the house phone.
"Hello?" Booth answered.
"Hey Booth. It's Temperance. Have you finished picking up those papers from the office yet?"
"I'm on my way home now… why?" Booth asked curiously.
"I have something to tell you."
Fifteen minutes has passed as she waited for husband to come home. She felt like jumping up and down with the giddiness that flowed through her. Tick Tick Tick. Brennan could hardly wait to tell him about the exciting news. He wouldn't be mad that she took the test while home alone, right? No, he would be excited. They could finally start the family Booth and she always dreamed of.
Booth grasped the steering wheel with his knuckles white. What could she possibly want to tell him? She sounded excited and very cheerful, yet he the nagging feeling of curiosity made him grip the wheel and drive with more swiftness than usual.
Booth parked in his usual spot and briskly walked to the door. Retrieving his keys from his back pocket he unlocked the door.
"Hey, Bones! I'm home!" Booth shouted from the door frame.
"Hello. How's everyone at the office?"
"Good, I think Hacker still has a slight grudge on me for marrying the woman he unsuccessfully tried to date." Booth shrugged of his suit jacket and placed it nicely on the coat rack.
"It wasn't my fault I had bones and bodies to deal with. I was working a case, what did he expect? Plus, I'm glad I married you." Brennan trailed behind Booth as he retrieved a wine bottle from the counter and a glass.
"Thanks Temperance. Wine?" He asked, as he poured red liquid into a clear, spotless wineglass.
"I will no being having anymore wine from now on." Brennan stated matter-o-factly.
"I've told you before, there is nothing wrong with one glass every few nights. We aren't addicts or anything." Booth scooped his wife into his arms resting on a dinning room chair.
"I know, but it wouldn't be beneficial to my health and someone's health inside me."
"What… you mean you're pregnant? Oh sweetie, that's amazing!" Booth laughed with joy and kissed his wife fiercely but softly. Then, he bent down and lifted her shirt, kissing the bare skin of her stomach.
"We are going to start a family Seeley." Brennan looked into Booth's inviting russet-colored eyes and smiled warmly. "I'm not going to loose this baby."
"You and I will do everything to keep him or her safe." Brennan nodded and tucked her head under Booth's chin. He softly ran his robust hands through her hair to her neck, light massaging her shoulders.
"Wait till the squint squad hear." Booth and Brennan shared a knowing look, as their lips brushed softly against each other, both blissful that their dream came true.
It's short, I know. I wanted to get another one in before tomorrow, but I'll try right when I wake up tomorrow. :) Please review. Thanks for reading.
