Thanks for all of the reviews so far. I ended up not going away this weekend. I ended up dehydrated in the ER. I feel slightly better.

Chapter eleven: Comfort n' Care

Booth's POV:

It was about one in the morning when we finally arrived at Sweet's beach house. It wasn't the largest house nor was it the smallest. It looked comfortable.

Slowly, everyone drug themselves from the warm car. We were all exhausted, but I couldn't sleep until Bones was taken car of.

Sweets pulled out a set of keys, "Now." He began shuffling the keys, "There are three bedrooms so that means we have to share."

"I'll sleep with Bones and Bonnie." I offered.

A small smile crept on Angela's face.

"I can assure you not in the way you are thinking Angela!" I growled. Even though the way she was thinking was what I really wanted.

"I'll bunk with Cam." Angela said still smiling.

Hodgins looked around, "No…NO! You can't expect me to share a room with Sweets!"

"Fine, if you don't want to sleep with me then you can have the couch." Sweets said.

"I don't want the couch, I want the bed." Hodgins hissed.

"Well, it's MY house so I get the bed!" Sweets argued.

"Well, I'M your guest so you should be a good host and give me the bed!" Hodgins shot back.

"…Look…if you too both want a bed…then I'LL sleep on the couch…" a voice mumbled.

I looked down in my arms to see two tired baby blue eyes staring up at me.

"Bones, you're hurt and pregnant. You're not sleeping on the couch." I said.

"Booth…I'm fine…really…" Bones mumbled.

Angela sighed, "Okay, you know what? Nobody gets the bedroom. You're both sleeping on the couch."

Sweets and Hodgins glared at each other with great disgust before opening the door of the house.

The house was cool inside. The walls were lined with various shells and boat parts.

I carried Bones into a bedroom. It was a small room with a king sized bed and a small t.v.

I carefully set Bones on the bed before turning to Cam.

"I'll see if Sweets has some duck tape and gauze or something." She mumbled leaving the room.

Angela walked in with a drowsy Bonnie.

"She just woke up. I'll give her bath and change her into some jammies while you take care of Bren." Angela whispered, stroking Bonnie's auburn, curly, shoulder length hair.

Bonnie looked at me; her head resting on Angela's shoulder.

"Hi Boof…" she yawned.

"Hey Bon Bon, Angie's going to give you a bubble bath okay?" I said.

Bonnie nodded weakly, "Kay."

Angela walked out of the room with Bonnie as Cam entered in. She had scissors, duck tape, and gauze.

"Okay Booth, help me undress Brennan." Cam said.

I really didn't want to without Bones's permission but she was to tired and weak to make up her own mind. So, I began to unbutton Bones's shirt.

I can't remember how many times I have envisioned Bones naked but now was not the time to imagine.

Bones trembled from the cool air in the house. Her pale skin, even though it seemed it wasn't possible, grew paler. I gently propped her up as Cam slowly wound the tape and gauze around Bones's rib cage.

"Ow Booth…stop…you're hurting me…" Bones moaned trying to scoot away from Cam.

"Sorry Bones…it will be over soon…" I whispered wiping tears from her eyes.

"Done." Cam said cutting the tape.

Cam and I helped slide Bones into a night gown.

"If you need anything, I'll be in my room." Cam said getting up.

"Thanks Cam." I whispered.

She nodded and left the room as Angela walked in with Bonnie.

She set Bonnie down beside Bones.

Bonnie, who appeared to be asleep, robotically wrapped her arms and legs around her mother. Bones winced in pain as Bonnie nudged her broken rib. Bones wrapped her arms around her daughter.

"Mama? Are we home?" Bonnie mumbled into her mother's night gown.

"Home for now." Bones whispered.

Bonnie smiled and a small yawn escaped her lips.

Bones smiled at her daughter, "Your safe now Bonnie."

I'm not sure if Bonnie heard or not but I'm sure if she did she would understand.

I turned to Bones to tell her good night but she too like Bonnie had fallen asleep.

I smiled, I had all I everything wanted, my two girls, Bones and Bonnie. I guess you could say we were the B family, Bonnie, Bones, and Booth. Little Muffin was part of the family too but he didn't have a name yet.

I stared out of the window and watched the waves crash onto the moonlit beach. I wondered if Derek was searching for Bones and Bonnie. I wondered if I ever would see that rat bastard again.

The B girls were my family and I would protect them even if it cost me my own life. One day, I would find Derek and make him sorry he had ever laid a finger on my Bones and Bonnie.

I hope you enjoyed! PLEASE REVIEW!
