Created April 2013 - I don't own these characters as made famous by the TV show, Bones. Love them anyway. All the rest that follows is my feeble attempt to keep time in between broadcasts and Razztaztic and Threesquares postings.


"Honey, I'm so proud of you". Brennan found herself in a smothering embrace from her very pregnant friend. "Don't be scared. This is a good thing."

"I know, Ange." She sighed heavily. "I'm just sad about Vincent, and worried about Booth. Broadsky's almost as skilled as Booth, and Booth could have rested more."

"Look. Brennan – Booth's going to be just fine. Booth's got something that Broadsky doesn't. He's got us, all of us focused on bringing him down."

Brennan was slightly reassured by her friend's words. Feeling ready now to return to her work, Dr. Brennan said "Thanks Angela, but I really need to get back to my examination."

Recognizing the change in her tone, Angela nodded and turned from the bone room.

Brennan watched her best girlfriend waddle slowly out of the room. Before she exited, Brennan called after her. "Angela?"

"Yes, Sweetie?"

Brennan shifted uncomfortably, searching for the correct words to express her sentiment. "Thank you. You, you have been a long-standing sponsor of Booth and me as a couple."

Angela radiated a smile, giving Brennan confidence at continuing the sentiment. "Through the years, you have been quite unyielding in your insistence that we should engage in a romantic dyad. And - even without any evidence to support your assertions, I find that you were correct; that I wouldn't be sorry when I took the leap. I am hardly sorry, Ange. I'm very encouraged. Thank you for being such a good friend."

"You're very welcome. Now, let me go console my husband from my earlier scolding. I love you, Sweetie." Angela continued out, smiling to herself "Way. To. Go. Me. Way. To. Go. Studly" she added a slight bounce to her waddle. "Just keep him safe, Universe. Keep him safe."
