Author's notes: The reviews have been great, the feedback is really useful.

"Bones she'll be fine you heard Frank." Booth called as he found Brennan leaning against a window watching Isa run about the yard with Al. She looked back at him with a look of anger and went back to look out the window.

"Come on Bones I didn't mean to hurt your feelings."

"Don't call me Bones!" she hissed pointing a finger at him. Booth sighed he knew she would be extremely pissed at him if he were to kiss her luscious mouth mid rant so he restrained himself. Sometimes she just didn't know how hot their verbal foreplay made him and now with their little episode they had that morning he couldn't wait to get her back in bed.

"Fine, fine." Booth threw up his hands and surrender and opened the door that led to the backyard. Brennan watched as he sauntered into the yard and swung Isa into his arms. Her auburn hair flew as she was flung from side to side. The sounds of her happy giggles could be heard as Booth held her close. After putting her down she ran to Al and began to talk incessantly. Brennan looked on noticing the way Booth listened intently nodding at the appropriate times and offering her some encouraging words to continue her thoughts. Right now nothing was sexier than Seeley Booth in all of his fatherhood glory. She bit her bottom lip as she watched Booth walk towards Al, she took in his broad shoulders and enticing waist, wanting nothing more than to wrap her arms around him and kiss him senseless. Brennan let out a breath; she definitely had it bad for Booth. That morning she had awoke to find herself holding his family jewels and kissing his neck. She was never this horny whenever she was around Peter. With Peter their relationship was more intellectual and practical than the one she shared with Booth. Not only were she and Booth sexually compatible their conversations were just as stimulating. He was her equal in every sense. Pushing herself off the window she walked to the door and made her way outside.

"Mommy come here." Isa called gesturing wildly with her hand. Brennan couldn't suppress the smile that graced her lips and obeyed Isa's command.

"Can we get a dog?" she asked, bending down to pick up one of Al's rubber toys. She handed it to Booth who threw the slobbery object out of sight. He ran off into the woods with Isa at his heels.

"Isabella!" Brennan called starting to follow her. Booth grabbed her elbow and pulled her back to him.

"She'll be fine Bones, don't worry so much." She glared at Booth freeing her elbow from his grasp.

"Oh come on Bones. This morning more than willing to let me hold you." He smiled giving her one of his devastating grins.

"Booth, we have to work out this whole parenting thing. I can't have you completely usurping my authority just because you want to please Isa. There are rules for a reason."

"You're right Bones. I'm sorry." He tried pulling her into his arms. Instinctively her hands went to his waist as he drew her closer. "You know if we keep doing this you're going to have to give up your little boyfriend you have back home." He chuckled.

"Peter is my fiancée and I love him."

"Oh really! Than why were you on top of me this morning promising me sexual favors?"

"Sex does not equate love Booth."

"If you were so madly in love with him you wouldn't be trying to get me in the sack!"

"Mommy, Daddy." The two looked down to find Isa with Al and a piece of paper in her hand.

"What's that Isa?" Booth asked pointing to her right hand. She handed the paper to Booth silently. Booth's eyes scanned the paper breathing in sharply.

"Damn it!" he shouted lifting Isa into his arms and taking Bones by the hand.

"What? What is it Booth?"

"Who did you see out there Isa?"

"A man, he was dressed in black, like he was going to a funeral."

"Isa we don't talk to strangers okay." She nodded and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Let me see the paper." Bones insisted with an outstretched hand. Begrudgingly he handed Bones the paper ushering her inside.

"Oh my god. They've found us."

"Come on Bones you've got to move a little faster than that." Booth instructed throwing his clothes into his overnight. The letter that Isa was carrying had said 'No where is safe, the lady scientist will be dead in a matter of days.' This had frightened Booth and sent him off demanding they leave immediately.

"Booth." She tried.

"Damn, they're good. I mean how on earth could they have found us here." He ranted pacing the room nervously.

"Booth!"

"I mean I thought I had covered our tracks pretty well. Luckily Martha wouldn't except my credit card so they wouldn't have accessed my account and pin pointed where we were…"

"Booth!" she shouted finally. He sighed as she walked over to him and placed her hands on his chest.

"We have to be calm. Not just for our sakes but for Isa. She's very intuitive and will be able to discern why we're so panicky." Booth looked into her clear blue eyes and let out a breath.

"You're right." His hands slid to her waist and he dipped his head to steal a quick kiss. Brennan pulled back and continued to pack her bags.

"I've got all my stuff." Isa entered the room with her Hello Kitty suitcase and sat on the bed.

"Okay sweetheart, why don't you give mommy and daddy a few minutes to get all of their things together, 'kay?" Booth asked dropping a kiss on her forehead. Isa nodded and watched them pack frantically.

"Why are you moving so fast? Is there something wrong?" Isa asked.

Brennan and Booth looked at one another trying to formulate an answer.

"No, we're just hurrying because we want to beat the traffic." Booth explained as Brennan rolled her eyes. "Traffic?" she mouthed reminding him that they were in the middle of nowhere.

"Oh." That seemed to do it for Isa because she sat quietly as they gathered the rest of their things.

"Alright let's do this." He said as Brennan picked Isa up and followed Booth out of the room.

After bidding Frank and Martha farewell they made their way to Booth's car. Isa wiggled her way out of Brennan's arms and ran to Al who was sitting near their car.

"Al!" she shouted. Isa rubbed his belly vigorously and smiled as his long pink tongue licked her cheek.

"She's gonna miss that dog." Brennan mused smiling at the sight. Her heart skipped a beat as she noticed an unidentifiable man make his way towards Isa.

"Booth…" she started despite the fact that he was a step ahead of her.

"FBI make your presence known!" he shouted wielding his gun on the unsuspecting man.

He raised his arms slowly turning around to face Booth with a smug look on his face. An angry scar ran across his right cheek and his mouth was covered with a good amount of facial hair. His tall build was menacing but not enough to make Booth want to back down.

"You thought we'd never find you, huh? You should really teach your little girl that it's dangerous to talk to strangers." He smirked.

"Temperance, get Isa." Booth instructed. Brennan walked slowly behind Booth as he acted as a human shield between the stranger and himself.

"It's her we want, not you or the kid." He exclaimed hands still raised.

"Bones get in the car."

"Booth?" she questioned.

"Temperance get in the damn car!" he shouted. Brennan followed his instructions putting Isa in her seat and getting in. Booth stepped back making his way to the car.

"We found you once, we'll find you again." He warned.

"I doubt it." The man shook his head and then quickly drew his gun and fired it, but the sound was drowned by Brennan's scream.
