This was supposed to be a one shot then I was asked why didn't I have Parker ask Bones too? It sounded like a good idea so here it is. We will just have to see where it goes from here.

Tell Her - Parker asks Bones

She was sitting at her desk drinking some tea. She really missed her cafine but the very minute she knew she was pregnant she started doing all the things recommended. It brought a smile to her face every time she remembered his shock replaced by his beautiful smile when she told him. They had spent several hours googeling pregnancy sites for information. She was lost in thought when she heard Parker's voice.

"Hey Bones ya got a minute? I need to ask you a question."

"Sure Parker come in. Have a seat," she said indicating the couch. She sat down beside him and asked "what do you need to know Parker, is it for school?"

"No, yesterday I was talking to Dad and I asked him I wanted to know when I found the right girl how do I keep her like he keeps you? "

Interested in hearing if Parker understood what Booth had meant she asked him "what did you Father say?"

"There was a lot but I guess for me it kinda boiled down to love gives more than it takes so be willing to stand by her even when it hurts and don't let go. She I'll be your best friend and your lover, so if you want to keep her take good care of her. I he was talking about you and him, but I don't understand how he did it. What did he do that made you feel he treated you right?"

She gave his question some careful consideration. There were so many examples she could give, but which ones would make her point. Even after all this time sometimes her people skills failed her. She finally decided to use examples. "Parker do you remember anything about the time the gravedigger buried me underground in a car with Jack?"

"Yeah I remember a little bit, I was around 6 so I really only know what little you and Dad have talked about since then, and I know its not something either of you like to talk about."

"Your right but during that time and shortly there after I had time to think and I did come to some conclusions. When you find that certain person think what would happen if you never woke up in the morning? Would she ever doubt the way you felt about her in your heart? Will she know how much you loved her? Did you try in every way to show her every day that she's was the only one? If your time on earth was through and she must face the world without you would the love you gave her in the past be enough to last
If tomorrow never came?"

"I understand why you thought about that at the time. You were trapped underground. You and Dad were still not together, well not in the way you should have been. But I have to admit at my age it's hard to think about tomorrow never coming."

"I understand at your age you think you are invincible, but Parker you are also not of an age where you should be considering a relationship of a permanent nature. I thought you were gathering information for the future."

"Yeah I guess I am I just got a little distracted. Bones has Dad always made sure you knew he loved you? Did you know how he felt that time they faked his death"

She had to stop and think. That time was still hard for her to think about. She often thought about the other many times in their life where she would have felt safer if she had known, but she had kept them to herself. Could she make Parker understand how those times had affected their relationship? Should she tell him? She decided yes. "Parker you and I have never talked about that time and there have been others. It is still a difficult time for me to talk about them, but I will try and see if I can help you understand. The time I thought your father was dead I thought I would face the world without him. I truly thought I would not be able to survive. When he came back I was angry and hurt. Now I know the anger and hurt came from the fact that at the time I was just beginning to learn how I felt, but then I thought he really did not care about me or my feelings. I have since learned that was not true, but much pain and suffering for both of us could have been avoided. I have lost loved ones in my life who never knew how much I loved them. Now I live with the regret that my true feelings for them never were revealed. When your Father and I decided to become romantically involved we made a promise to say each day how much we mean to each other. To avoid that circumstance where there's no second chance to tell each how we feel. Every day I tell your Father I love him beyond words. Sometimes we ask each other if our time on earth were through and we had to face the world alone is the love we gave each other in the past enough to last. Then we make sure in all the ways possible the love we give now is enough to last if tomorrow never comes." Just then a thought came to her. "Parker I had to learn how to give and take that kind of love. You experienced it from infancy. You have always been secure in the fact your Father and Mother love you, but do you know how much I love you too? I know I don't always show it, sometimes I don't know how. However, I want you to know I think of you as my child, and you will truly be this new baby's brother not a half brother. In this family we don't do anything by halves."

"Thanks Bones, I know you love me, but it's nice to hear. I think I understand what you are saying. I need to show the person I love that I love her in many ways. It sounds like telling her is an important part of that showing."

Just then there was a knock on the door frame. Booth entered. "Hey here are my three favorite people. How about we go get some lunch?" He had heard the end of her conversation with Parker and would ask her tonight if there was anything she would like him to know about it. He doubted it, those two often kept secret from him. Looking at her he was reminded he needed to make sure he told her tonight how grateful he was and loved and treasured her. He had a lot to be thankful for, Bones, Parker and now their new miracle.
