CHAPTER 10: THE NEWS...

BONES P.O.V.

It has now been a month and a half since Booth and I were saved. Tonight I'm going out with Parker and Booth.

I looked at the pregnancy test, closed my eyes and looked at it again.

Positive, I was pregnant.

That's when there was a knock at the door, I opened the door. There stood Parker and

Booth.

"Hey, are you ready?" Booth asked. "Yes, let's go." I replied grabbing my coat. "Are you okay?" Booth asked me. "Fine, why do you ask?" I inquired. "I don't know. You've just seemed distracted for the past couple of days." Booth tells me. "I'll tell you later." I reply.

"Bones..." Booth starts to say. "I'll tell you later." I repeated.

Later that evening we head back to Booth's apartment. After Parker is given a bath and put to bed. Booth comes out and sits down on the couch next to me.

"Now will you tell me what's wrong?" Booth asked. "I...I'm pregnant." I say looking at my hands. "Pre-pregnant? You're going to have a ba-baby?" Booth asked. "Yes, why is that so hard to believe?" I asked. "We're going to have a baby." Booth says kissing me and placing a hand over my flat abdomen.

As I kissed him back, I heard a shuffle of little feet and pulled away.

"Dad?" Comes Parker's voice. "What's wrong, buddy?" Booth asked. "I had a bad dream that you and Dr. Bones were killed." Parker told Booth. "Come here..." Booth says pulling Parker into a hug. "I think I better head home." I say with a yawn. "Don't go, please." Parker begs me. "Yeah, why don't you stay," Booth chimes in. "I need to go home and get some sleep for work tomorrow." I say with another yawn.

"Bones, you're exhausted. You can stay here tonight and sleep in my bed, I'll take the couch." Booth offers.

After thinking about it for a minute I finally agree. Booth then went to tuck Parker in and I guess I fell asleep on the couch, because the next thing I woke up to Booth putting me on his bed. He covers me up and turns to leave, but I grab his arm.

"Stay with me." I whispered. "Bones, I can't..." Booth starts to say. "Please, Booth." I said and finally Booth climbed into the bed, wrapping his arms around me.

The next morning (Saturday) I wake up to Booth getting up.

"What time is it?" I ask. "Nine o'clock. How did you sleep?" Booth asked. "Great, why do you ask?" I asked.

"I was just curious. What are you doing today?" Booth questioned. "Well I was going to go home and change meet Angela for lunch and work on my book." I replied. "Oh...okay, Parker and I can take you home. I mean since you don't have your car." Booth tells me. "That would be great. Thank you." I say and just as Booth is about to kiss me there is a knock at the bedroom door.

Booth opens and there stands Parker.

"I'm hungry." Parker states upon seeing his father. "All right, do you want to go out to breakfast?" Booth asked Parker. "Yeah! Is coming to?" Parker asked in excitement. "How about Bones?" Booth asked. "Sure, I'll go." I reply.

We soon arrived at the diner and after ordering. I looked at from Booth to Parker and back at Booth.

"Should we tell him the news?" I asked. "Sure, Parker, how would you like to be a big brother?" Booth asked him. "Are you and mom going to have a baby?" Parker asked. "No, Bones and I are going to have a baby here in about a little less eight months." Booth tells Parker. "Cool, I hope I have a brother." Parker says just as our food arrives.

A half an hour later I finally got home. I was working on my book and must have lost track of time, because the next thing I knew there was a knock at my door. I opened it and there stood Angela.

"Hey, did you forget we were going to lunch?" Angela asked. "No, I was just catching up on some work with my book. I went out with Booth and Parker last night. I stayed the night because..." I started to say. "

You stayed the night with Booth?" Angela asked. "Yes, nothing happened though." I replied.

"You stayed the night with Booth and nothing happened?" Angela asked repeating everything I just said.

"Yes, I need to talk to Cam on Monday about taking some time off when the baby comes." I said without really thinking about what I had just said and Angela looked at me in shock.

"Baby? You're going to have a baby?" Angela asked. "Yes, in about, a little less than eight months I expect." I said.
