"I was fine Dad. You didn't need to bring me here."

"Yeah yeah, people faint ALL the time. It's natural!"

"Dad I didn't eat anything this morning, that's all."

"We've already spoke about this right. I don't want you not eating. And besides we both know that wasn't the why that you fainted…"

"Oh God, Booth! Where's him dad? Did you saw him? Is he alright?" Brennan was speaking really quickly and holding the necklace that Booth gave her in Christmas.

"Oh I didn't saw him," that wasn't quite true, but it wasn't all a lie. When he got her admitted he asked for Booth in the reception informing the nurse that he was Brennan's father. They informed him that Booth condition wasn't critical, but he was still in coma. But Max didn't saw Booth. "But if you want I could check…"

"No dad you don't have to," she was trying to get up but her father didn't let her.

"Look, the doctor said that you should rest and that he had requested a blood test because he wanted to make sure that you guys were ok. So you wait here and I'll go the cafeteria, the restroom and then get the doc, ok?"

"Ok dad," She waited her dad left the room and got up and started to look for the nurse station. "Hi. Could you inform the condition of Sargent Major Booth? My name is…"

"Temperance. Temperance Brennan. Like I said to your father earlier he's stable, but in coma."

So Max knew. "Ooh, could you inform me where his room is?"

"Ooh yeah, he's in the end of the hall. His wife is there with him."

"His wife? But… Thank you misses. I'll go check on him latter." Brennan turned around and returned to her hospital gurney.

Max returned with the doctor that did an ultrasound, talked about her blood test and then lectured her on the relation of pregnancy, eating and staying calm

Wow, she's not saying anything. "Well I think that we all understood that pal. We just want to know how my grandson is doing."

"Dad we talked about it, there's no" She was interrupted by the doctor.

"Oh, he's just fine. One strong little boy."

"It's a boy?" Brennan asked with a shaken voice.

"HA! I tould you Tempe. You're having a boy!"

"Oh I thought that, I'm sorry." The doctor excused himself and left father and daughter alone.

"It's a boy dad. I'm having a son. Booth's son." She started to cry with both of her hand rubbing her belly.

"Look Tempe, why don't you visit him? I can go with you if you want." Max said, trying to comfort her. My poor babies.

"He got married dad. He has a wife now. There's no place for me or for little Seeley Parker."

"Seeley Parker? I wish I could record this and go back in time to show you how changed you are. Hormones have made wonders to you Tempe. But that's beside the point! You and I both know that Booth is not like that. You know he will love this child as much as you do. So let's go and talk to him, you don't have a say in this ok?"

"But dad,"

"No buts. Get up and let's go." They were walking again to the nurse station when Brennan said. "In the end of the hall, I asked before where it was his room."

"That's my baby girl."

The walk was silent. In no hurry they were in Booth's room. And there was his wife: blond, probably tall and beautiful.

I'm going to kick his FBI ass when his weak up. Max whispered to his daughter. "You prettier than her. Don't worry," Brennan smiled at her father and he knocked on the opened door. "Hi, is this Seeley's room?"

The blond woman turned. "Yeah this is his room. You two…"

"You are his wife, right?" Brennan asked.

"I'm Hannah. Hannah Burley. And you two are?"

"Max Kennan, pleasure to meet you. This is," Max was about to speak when Brennan cut him. At least he didn't took his last name…

"I can introduce myself dad. Temperance Brennan. And you didn't answer my question. Are you Booth's wife?"
