Okay y'all, I hart came through for me again, and she is super busy so I thank her again! This chapter is a shortie, and is setting up for a meeting with Daddy in the next one. Please continue to read and review! I love 'em!!
Disclaimer: Just checked and nope, still not mine!! If they were I would be sitting on Booth's lap right now!!
Booth was at Brennan's door at exactly nine o'clock the next morning with bagels and coffee just as he had promised. He knew that his word was the only thing that she could fully trust at this point in her life and he refused to let her down. He knocked gently on her door and waited for her to answer.
Seconds later, the door swung open and Brennan smiled at the goodies Booth was holding. "Ah, my hero, bagels and coffee. You came through again for me Booth, what would I do without you?" They made their way into the kitchen and sat down at the table.
"You'd starve." He said plain as day. "Although just think of all the money you'ved save on groceries, no wonder your place is so much better than mine." He joked. He started doling out the bagels, and sipped his coffee.
She punched him in the arm. "Well I tell ya what, to make up for my mooching food from you, when we find out where my aunts are, I will pay for every expense. Seeing as I did kind of hire you as a private investigator. I won't take no for an answer."
"Well, that kind of makes me feel a little dirty, but you've got yourself a deal. I'll do the legwork and you can pick up the cheque. As long as your dad gives us enough info, I don't think it'll be too hard to track them down anyway. By the way, how many aunts are we looking for?"
"My Dad said that my Mom was the oldest of three girls. He never said anything about brothers, so I am assuming that's it." She offered.
"What about your Dad, does he have any family that you'd want to track down?" He inquired.
She shook her head. "He said that my Mom was the only family he ever knew, so either he has lost track, or he never really knew them anyway. Either way, I am kind of excited to know that I do actually have some blood relatives. I wonder if I look like any of them, or if they have kids or what they do for a living." Her enthusiasm was contagious.
"Settle down Bones, you almost sound human." He chuckled. "We'll find them. I called down to the cells and they will have your dad ready for us at eleven. We will find out then. Just be prepared if he doesn't tell us anything. What do you remember about your mom? Can you remember any names, or faces, anything at all? I don't want to go in completely blind, and I know your dad isn't always the most dependable when giving up any information."
Brennan sat in thought trying to replay her childhood, trying desperately to remember anything from her past. "I only just really remember my Mom, Dad and Russ. Maybe it was because they always told us we didn't have any family. Maybe my mind just decided to forget those important details. I'm sorry Booth, I just can't remember much."
He leaned over and rubbed her shoulder. "Hey Bones, don't be sorry. You just found this out, I can understand your excitement. We will do what we do best, we will find the answers, okay? We always do." He gave her shoulder one final squeeze and stuffed the rest of his bagel in his mouth, earning an amused chuckle from Brennan for his antics.
Okay and there it is, I hope to post again soon, so please stick with me!! And while you are down here, leave a review! Thanks all!!
