Brennan sat on her sofa, Summer sat in her arms, as she waited for Harry to arrive. Booth had spent the last five minutes knocking on the door, which had irritated Brennan and made Summer cry, although he gave up when no one answered. Brennan had just been in time to watch him head towards Angela's office, probably gone to question her on Brennan's new partner. The last thing Brennan needed was for Booth to do his usual stunt and run a background check on her partner. Harry, who was from the same building as Booth, was fairly new to the FBI and he didn't need a more exprienced agent looking in on him.
Brennan groaned when she heard a knock on her door. She stood up and balanced Summer on her hip, turning around to see Jennifer stood at the door. The anger drained from Brennan as she unlocked the door, gesturing for Jennifer to step inside so she could lock it oncemore. Jennifer shuffled inside quickly, she had noticed the tension between Brennan and Agent Booth before, and waited whilst she locked the door. Once Brennan had locked the door, she rearranged Summer on her hips, before stalking over to her desk. Jennifer rushed behind and took the seat opposite her.
"Doctor Hodgins found that the back of the victims jeans were stained with a sooty residue made up of lead and carbon, benzene and adlehydes," said Jennifer, looking through the folder.
"Engine exhaust," replied Brennan, nodding her head.
"Yes. Hodgins said that she must of been stood behind the exhaust pipe of a car, stood very closely indeed," answered Jennifer. "He said he also found dog hairs on her t-shirt!"
"Dog hairs ?" questioned Brennan, raising her eyebrow.
"Yes," said Jennifer.
"Ok. Anything else ?" asked Brennan.
"Cam said that in order to find the gun which killed our victim, basically, we need to find the bullets which killed her," said Jennifer.
"I found no bullets at the scene."
"Which means that our victim may not have been killed in the alley," said Jennifer.
Brennan nodded. She looked out of her window, her eyes widened. Brennan immediantly stood up, pushing Summer into Jennifer's arms and asking her to take her to Angela. Jennifer nodded and looked down at Summer, who she became fond of.
"I'm interrorgating the victims best friend and older sister today, I will see if they know anything that could inform us of any major suspects," shouted Brennan from over her shoulder.

"Harry!" Brennan called.
Harry tore his eyes away from Booth, who stood infront of Harry with a huge smirk, and greeted his partner. Booth shoved his hands in his pocket and smiled at his girlfriend, greeting her with a strong kiss on the lips. Brennan noticed his alpha male tendencies kicking in, she noticed how he deepened their kiss to claim he owned her.
"You do not own me," whispered Brennan, rather quietly so only Booth could hear.
Booth only replied with a shrug and his usual charm smile. Harry looked around the lab, feeling himself becoming more uncomfortable by the second, and was happy to see Jennifer taking Summer to Angela.
"Summer here ?" smiled Harry, turning towards Brennan.
"Yes. Her babysitter was unavailable today, as was my Father," answered Brennan, returning his smile.
"You want any kids, Harry ?" asked Booth.
Brennan avoided the urge to hit Booth. She noticed the look of discomfort on Harry's face by this question, she also noticed he began to fidgit and rub the back of his neck. Brennan turned her gaze to Booth who was smiling and keeping a close look on Harry, his hands still shoved in his pockets.
"Erm, not at the moment," Harry finally muttered.
"Oh," said Booth, nodding his head.
Silence fell upon the three. A very uneasy and awkward silence.
"Still a virgin, hey ?" asked Booth.
A huge smirk unfolded across his lips. He received a dig in the ribs from Brennan, who cast him a dirty glare, before apologising to Harry for his actions. Booth rolled his eyes, wondering when his girlfriend had become so polite.
"And, Booth, Cultural anthropologists have discovered that romantic love and sexual jealousy are universal features of human relatio sexual jealousy and ideals of romantic love, and appear to be deeply embedded in human nature," stated Brennan, nships. Social values related to virginity reflect bothraising her eyebrow at him.
"I apologise for being rude, Harry, there is nothing wrong with being a virgin," said Booth, forcing himself not to laugh.
"Actually -"
"Haven't we got to interrorgate some possible murder suspects ?" asked Brennan.
"Yes," replied Harry, looking at his watch.
"I will see you later," said Brennan, quickly pressing a kiss on Booth's cheek.
Booth nodded and waved off his girlfriend. Brennan gave him one more glare before walking out of the lab. Booth chuckled to himself as he headed towards Angela's office, planning on telling Angela everything which had just occured.
