Oh and I said that this chapter would be a little different from the others well it's in Booth's POV instead of Tempe's

I cuddled her head back into my chest as I listened to her screaming and crying. She had been repeating the same three things to me ever since I had arrived. She told me that it was my entire fault, she didn't want this and told me that I had done this to her. I was beyond confused by her ramblings. Any other words she had spoken had been in comprehendible. She pounded her fists again against my chest. Her words had only been muffled by the sounds of her sobbing.

I had been to work today even though it was the weekend. Information in the form of a notice had arrived. Ortez had made a move; it had been his first in nearly 8 weeks. He was thankful though that now he only had to worry about Brennan. The case of the psycho-loony who had been setting people of fire was finally settled and the guy behind it was now behind bars.

"You're lucky I'm not wearing a good work shirt Tempe," I whisper softly in an attempt to calm her. She doesn't show any sign that she had even realized that I had spoken. What has gotten into her?

When I got home with a bag of groceries she had come at me with a kitchen knife. Suddenly everything begins to fit. Tempe's mindless ramblings and the letter from Ortez blend slowly together. I have to ask her again what she is talking about to find out though.

"Tempe, did I do something that you didn't want me to do?" I ask playing with her mindless words. I feel her nod into my chest. "Are you going to tell me what I did? What's wrong Tempe?" I ask again. She seems to be calming down. She looks up at me; she is at a complete loss for words as far as I can see. The wet tracks of tears continue down her face. The tears are still sliding down from her eyes. Her eyes are still puffy and red from crying, but now she is attempting to hold the tears down.

She obviously doesn't know what she wants to say or maybe how to say it, but I get a tiny smile from her when I cup her face in my hand. I wipe away the tracks left from her tears with my thumb. The silence has become overwhelming, I can't take it anymore. My mind is telling me to break the silence that has settled itself into the room.

"I got you some popcorn," I say. She'd had the strangest craving for microwave popcorn and so I had gotten some for her. I realize though that I said the wrong this because she started to cry again.

"For god sakes Temperance, just tell me what's wrong," I scream. I can't stand this any longer, her tears are killing me. She brings her eyes back to mine, they're sparkling with tears.

"I'm scared," She whispers softly.

"Why are you scared?" I ask softly. "Is it because you don't want this, whatever this is?" I ask.

"No. I'm scared because, because a part of me does want this," She whispers.

"What is this thing that a part of you wants?" I ask. "Temperance what is it?" She doesn't reply for many moments, but when she does, she doesn't say what I'd expect.

"This isn't my area of expertise Booth, that's why I'm scared," She says. She's afraid of doing something wrong.

"You've gotta be more specific Temperance," I say. "I don't know what you're talking about. Will you please just tell me what's wrong?"

She looks straight into my eyes before replying, before giving me the answer to my long asked question. "I'm pregnant," She whispers. With those words all of my fears come crashing in on me. Ortez isn't going to kill Temperance he's gonna kill the child that is growing within her. As soon as I let that thought take a place in my mind I realize something, he isn't going to kill the child, but he's going to try.

I've learned in my time something very important about people such as him, they won't go for the kill they'll go for the pain. He somehow knows that Temperance is pregnant and he knows that it'll hurt her if he kills the child. I lift her into my arms. Our eyes are still locked when I finally respond.

"I won't let that man hurt you, or our child," I state, my voice is shaking but the seriousness still stands. I know she sees my seriousness.

I can't help the thoughts that overwhelm me. I love her so much and I really don't want to see her get hurt, but I'm afraid that she will get hurt. I try and shake off my negative thoughts before getting up.

"I'm gonna go and make you some popcorn," I tell her before leaving the room. She follows behind me and into the kitchen moments later.

"There is something you're not telling me," She says seriously.

"Ortez isn't after you anymore he's after the baby." My statement doesn't seem to startle her. "I won't let him hurt you," I add moments later. She smiles knowing that I wouldn't let her get hurt.

The timer on the microwave goes off moments later. I take the bag of popcorn out and put it in a large bowl and hand it to Temperance. She smiles in thanks, but then throws a few pieces at me before running away. The first thought that occurs to me is 'that woman is full of surprises.' I chase after her seconds later. I have to protect her and I can't do that if I don't have her to protect. She's gonna be my wife soon enough, I can't have her running from me.

As I continue to think about her I wonder. I wonder if I'll be able to keep her out of harm's way. I also think about how this all started out. Ortez only is doing all this because Temperance bruised his ego. What an ass?

PLEASE Review I've been working on this chapter since before chapter 4 and I finally finished it today
