Author Note: This Post is just an Author Note. I cannot update until I have some good solid ideas on what to put in some boxes. They are going to be in the next chapter and I need some help. I have a lot of people putting my story on their alerts, but not saying anything! I need you! Please help. And I guess I'll do a short update now not involving the boxes just as a treat for all the reviews that are sure to start spilling in : ) Oh and I noticed an inconsistency in my story that I feel is necessary to clarify. Brianne's story says that her fiance died and Brennan's says that Brianne's husband died. It's the first one. My bad. The daughter was her fiance's daughter who was left in Brianne's custody. My bad.

"Booth, I'm not really into the typical American dream..." She thought for a minute about places they could live. Suddenly, an old case from a couple years back, popped into her mind. "Wait, remember that bridge that I had rebuilt? Huntsville is actually doing very well. I was there a few weeks ago. I saw Andy actually."

"Bones, why didn't you tell me you saw him! I would have come too. I fell in love with that little guy the same as you did. He was almost as cute as Parker was." Parker looked up at his dad and smiled.

Booth thought for a moment trying to pinpoint what the anthropologist was getting at. He figured that she was saying that she wanted to live there, but she was pretty sure that he wasn't going to get 103 inch plasma screen TV.

"They have restored the community pool. The gas stations are up and running. Several restaurants just started business. The schools are even re-opening due to the influx of new families. The commute to work wouldn't be too bad. And our house could be right on the river. I actually love to fish. I think that Huntsville would be a wonderful place for our children to grow up."

Booth caught that she said children, but chose not to say anything. She may have been talking about Parker as well as the baby, but it was also possible that she was speaking of more children that she wished to have. Brennan was always full of surprises. For all Seeley knew, she wanted twelve kids all of a sudden. It wasn't unusual for her to make abrupt changes in her life out of no where. "I think that's a great idea, honey."

"Honey?" Creases appeared in her forehead.

"What? You don't like that?" Booth frowned. He always called his girlfriends honey. Bones wasn't really any different.

"I don't know, I guess I just like that you call me Bones. I didn't used to, but I do now. I mean come on, Booth. I tattooed it to my hip." She smiled and he contemplated what to say for a moment. Whenever he was with her, he thought a lot more about what he wanted to say before he actually said it when talked to PhDs and Dr. Brennan's opinion mattered more to him than all other PhDs.

"Okay, I'll just call you Bones. And Temperance. But I refuse to call you Tempe. I'm sorry, but I hate it when people call you that." She smiled at him.

"Oh, Booth. I could not ask for a better fiance." Throughout the whole conversation, Parker had been silent. Parker was never quiet. It made Booth slightly nervous.

"Parker, why have you been so quiet?"

Parker smiled that big Booth smile at his dad and said like it was so obvious, "Dad, I think I know when I shouldn't say anything and just pretend I'm not here..." It was so funny to both of them that he was so smart to know that his dad and soon-to-be-step-mother had private moments in front of others all the time. "Can I talk now?" They laughed and nodded.

"Parker, you can talk whenever you want."

Later that day, Dr. Brennan and Agent Booth took Parker back to his mothers, then went to the book store to pick up Sweets' book. The cover was a picture of the torso of a human body with a heart within the rib cage. the title was across the top and the author was across the bottom. On the back, there was a picture of Dr. Lance Sweets.

"Not only am I best-selling author, but now, there is book about me." Booth frowned.

"The book is about me too." They read through the table of contents and saw that the last chapter was called "Denying The Truth: A Conclusion".

"Who is going to read it first?" Brennan asked

"Let's read the last chapter together. Right now." Dr. Brennan sighed in agreement and they plopped down in a fluffy chair in Barnes & Nobel. The last chapter was not even one whole page.

After studying Temperance Brennan and Seeley Booth for an extended amount of time, I have concluded that the pair works so well together because of there innate ability to complement each other. This conclusion was drawn after scoring personality tests that they each filled out after our very first session together. Another reason that their partnership is so unbelievable effective, is that they are willing to do anything to protect the other. They have feelings that neither will admit to themselves or each other. Each is denying the truth which allows them to continue to work together without true conflict. Agent Booth took a bullet for his partner, she killed two people to save his life. Because of this love for each other, they will continue to work together and catch murders as well as putting the families of victims at rest.

"Hmmm..." Booth said after he finished reading. It was surprising to him how quickly Sweets summed them up. "Well he nailed it right on the head."

Now go review or else I CANNOT update! I need those boxes!
