Part 14
It was 6:30 in the morning Brennan was nervous, she always got nervous before going on a dig or a crime scene, that was an excited nervous the kind you get when you're about to do something you've done before, but you don't know what to expect. This nervousness was the kind you get when you're doing something you've done before, but there is a chance it could go wrong. Booth sat down next to her." Penny for your thoughts "
"I don't know what that means."
"It means what are you thinking." Booth smiled.
"Booth, what if someone is watching I and they try to get me."
"Bones NO ONE is going to come get you they'd have to go through me first and that is NOT going to happen today or any other day."
"How can you be so sure? What if…"
Booth cut her off "No what if's I'm sure nothing is going to happen to you" "just concentrate on your work I'll do the rest"
Booth gave Brennan the "booth charm smile" and said 'let's go you told your one man squint squad we'd meet him at 8 it's 7:15 and I need coffee."
Brennan got her bag and began to feel a little better about the day ahead, that was one of the things she loved about Booth he could make her feel better without even trying most of the time… or maybe he was trying all the time.

"Dr Brennan did you get a chance to look at my reconstruction?"
"Yes I did you did a great job." Brennan smiled at him.
They packed up their equipment and headed out with Rusty driving Booth in the back seat –he didn't like that one bit.

The feeling that someone was watching her was still there but it wasn't too strong. Booth was 4 ft away and every few minutes he'd look around seeing nothing out of place then he'd ask Brennan if she was all right she'd smile and say yes, but the feeling was still there and go back to sifting. Booth saw something move in the corner of his eye, in the line of bushes, it wasn't the wind or an animal. About that time Brennan spoke up, "Booth, the feeling is stronger now."
"I know Bones, I see something I know this is hard for you, but I need you to keep working." "Okay" Brennan could tell by his tone that there was no arguing on this one.
"I'll be back in a minute "Booth called Agent Hill over told him what was going on and Agent hill sent over Agents Taylor and Roberts to help Booth look for whatever he saw. Booth left Brennan with agent Hill and set off for the bushes and the woods beyond….
