I don't own Bones, I know I have 206 in my body, but the Bones from Fox isn't mine.

Movement

Sunday morning was spent the same way every Sunday was spent; they all went to church. "Bones, I want to tell you thank-you for doing this for me, I know you don't believe, but I appreciate you coming. It shows Parker we are a family."

"Booth, I'm beginning to comprehend the routine better every week, and I appreciate that you are willing to explain things to me after Parker goes home. You used to get angry when I questioned your beliefs, but now you help me to understand. I think we are both trying."

Monday was her doctor's appointment again, they continued to make the appointments at the end of the day, and Booth continued to go with her."Booth, are you sure, you want to come? It's only been two weeks; I don't think much has changed."

"Bones the baby changes every day and I want to be there to see him."

"We don't know if it is a boy or a girl."

"I know, and I don't care which, as long as he's healthy, but I don't want to call our baby an it anymore. The last time we saw him, he looked so real."

The nurse entered and performed the ultrasound. "The doctor wants me to get more pictures of the exact location the baby is in relevance to your pelvis, so this ultrasound may be a little different. I will still let you see the baby, but I just want you to know why we are doing something different."

She began the ultrasound, by measuring the baby, and they noticed that it was sucking its thumb.

"Bones look, he's sucking his thumb; how does he know to do that?"

"Booth it's an instinctual response that all primates do, to prepare them for breastfeeding after birth. It helps to strengthen the jaw, and tongue. But, I agree it is very cute."

The nurse continued with the ultrasound, and then took more detailed pictures of her pelvis. She printed out the pictures, and went to get the doctor. He arrived in the room a few moments later.

"Hello, how are you feeling today?"

"Great, it seems I have more energy lately."

"That's about normal, most women start feeling better when they get past the first trimester. Everything looks good, and the baby is about four inches long now. It's in a great position and I don't foresee any problems in the near future. Now it is my understanding that you are getting married in two weeks?"

"Yes, on the 17th."

"Well, I would like to see you on the 15th, and then as long as everything looks good we can wait until the 3rd, so you can enjoy your honeymoon and holiday. When you come in on the 15th you will have a series of blood tests done to screen for any chromosomal problems. This is just routine, and every woman has this test, so there is no need to worry. Do you have any questions for me?"

Booth asked, "Are there any limitations on where we can go on our honeymoon?"

"I would stay out of third world countries, because the medical facilities are usually poor, but there shouldn't be any other limits. Did you have anywhere in particular in mind?"

"Yes Booth, what did you have in mind?"

"Oh, I see, well I'm not getting in the middle of this one. I will see you on the 15th. Remember if there are any problems, call me day or night." He left the room.

"Bones I will tell you soon enough, the plans are just about set and Hodgins tells me you will love it."

"Hodgins is planning our honeymoon?"

"No, just a few final touches. He knows many people, and has the ability to pull some strings. I know you will love it don't worry."

She just sighed, and gave up, she knew she was fighting a losing battle, when it came to this discussion, besides deep down she looked forward to a surprise.

Later in the week, she was sitting at her desk completing the paperwork on the latest set of bones from limbo, when she felt an unusual feeling in her abdomen. It felt like someone was tickling her from the inside. She sat very still and waited to feel it again. There, that was definitely something different. She called Angela to her office.

"Angela, I think I felt the baby move."

"Really, well I felt Enjoli, when I was 16 weeks, so you may be right. Did it feel like butterflies?"

"More like a tickle."

"Yes, that's probably what it was. I think it is the best feeling ever."

"Me too, I'm going to call Booth."

She dialed Booth's number as Angela left the room.

"What's wrong Bones?"

"Nothing's wrong, I just wanted to tell you I felt the baby move."

"I'll be right there."

"Booth, wait." However, it was too late he had already hung up.

He was in her office within 10 minutes.

"What did you say." He bent down and put his hands on her belly. "Hi baby, this is Daddy, how are you today?"

"Oh, there it is again, he must like you."

"See he knows his Daddy."

"Booth he can't hear you yet. It's still too early."

"Maybe he has his mother's steep learning curve."

"Booth hearing is developmental, not related to IQ."

"Well, you said he moved when I talked to him, so I think he is advanced developmentally. Can I feel him?"

"Probably not yet, but maybe in a few weeks."

"Want to go get lunch, I miss you today. We haven't had any cases for a while and I'm tired of paperwork."

"Sure, just let me finish these last few entries."

Ten days. She was ready, her vows were written, the dresses were done, the final arrangements for dinner were complete, and the flowers were set. She didn't think she missed anything. Yesterday she talked to her Dad, and he was ready. He asked Booth to have lunch with him today. He told her it was just to talk, but she thought it was more. She never knew what to expect from her Dad, and she told Booth to be careful. He had laughed at her, and told her that they had gotten close while they were in Washington, so she didn't need to worry, but she was still concerned.
