Here's chapter 11. I'm going to have probobly one more chapter.


"I've really enjoyed working here. I've defiantly learned a lot," Max said to Dr. Goodman.

"Well I appreciated that you could take Dr. Brennan's spot for such a short time. And it's been a pleasure meeting such an intelligent young women," he said to her.

"Thank you," Max replied smiling, "It's also been a pleasure."

They shook hands and she walked silently out of the office slinging her backpack over her shoulder. Once outside, her hand on the door of the taxi that had been waiting for her, she took one last look at the big brick building. Of course she could come visit, she only lived like 20 minutes away now, but she still wasn't working there. She was really going to miss that.

Flashback

Earlier that day

"I'm sorry Max, it's not my decision." Angela said giving her young friend a hug.

Max walked over to Hodgins and Zach, giving both of them a hug. Hodgins handed her a jar with a ribbon on top.

"What's this?" she asked curiously looking into the jar.

"It's a monarch, well right now it's a caterpillar, but it will be a monarch." Hodgins said smiling at her.

"Thanks," she replied giving him another hug.

Silently Max turned and walked toward Dr. Brennan. Brennan had been the one to decide weather Max stayed or went. She wanted her team back so she let Dr. Johnston go.

"It was nice meeting you." Max said shaking her hand.

All she got was a smile in return. Lastly she turned her attention to Booth who was standing next to Dr. Brennan. Max wrapped her arms around him giving him a big hug which he returned.

"Thank you Booth for everything. Really I don't know what I would do without you." She said holding back tears.

"I'm going to miss you Max." he replied pulling her in for another hug.

End Flashback

Max opened the door to the taxi, stepped in and shut the door.

"Where to miss?" asked the driver.

"Oak Circle, Pleasant Springs Neighborhood." She replied staring out the window.

The driver pulled out of the parking lot and speed away, as Max continued to stare out the window.
