Well I think the weekend has almost reached its end. There may only be two or three chapters left to share the highlights with you. There is of course the wedding, a short honeymoon and Rebecca to deal with. So sit back and enjoy what is left of the rest of your weekend with the Brennan-Booth clan.
Chapter 14 The Rest of The Week-end Part 1 – Hurricane Angela
Booth was just turning back toward Parker, after returning the milk to the refrigerator, to find himself hit full on by a flying arm full of Bones. Her force caused them both to stagger back toward the wall and hit it with a "humf" as air was released from their lungs.
"Bones what the hell…"
She was placing small fast kisses all over his face punctuated by her words. "I" kiss "did" kiss " it I" kiss "made the reservations at the hotel" kiss "they will make" kiss "all the arrangements for the license" kiss "and" kiss "a magistrate" kiss "I also made arrangements for a plane to fly all of us up there." Kiss "I had to use a private company" kiss "because there are no commercial fights" kiss "but I figured" kiss "you" kiss "wouldn't care" kiss "because this is special." Kiss "so now can I call and invite everyone?" Kiss Kiss KISS.
Leaning forward to place them in a straight line he let her body slide down his to the floor. Looking at her beautiful face, her incredible crystalline eyes he saw something new. Something he had never seen, but knew he had been responsible for placing there. Love! In that split second he knew for certain this was what she wanted, she was not trying to place some sort of commitment on herself that would make her stay. She wanted this wedding this marriage. She really wanted it and the most astonishing thing of all was she wanted these things with him. Placing both hands on her head tilting her face to his he gently kissed her and said "yes Baby call them, but there is one person we don't have to call and should be told first."
"Oh, of course Parker, I almost forgot he was here sorry."
Taking his hand she turned around as Booth look up to see the astonished look on Parker's face. "Uhh guys that was gross. Don't ever do that again."
Bones felt the low soft rumble of laughter in Booth's chest as they walked forward and sat down next to him, one on each side. "Look Buddy there is a reason Bones is so excited. You see I asked her to marry me and she said yes. This morning, because you are here," Booth reached out and touched Parker on the chin, "we decided to get married today. We weren't sure we could make all the arrangements, but Bones was able to so that's why she was overly excited. See?"
"Yeah I see. Does that mean Dr. Bones is going to be my second mommy now? My friend Tommy his Daddy got married again and now he has two Mommy's a first Mommy, that's the one he lives with the most, and a second Mommy. He calls his second Mommy Mommy 2." Parker had on the face Booth thought of as his thinking face. The one that usually caused Booth's Father Radar to go into full mode because it meant Parker was thinking of doing something he probably shouldn't. Parker continued "Dr. Bones" he looked at her with his big brown eyes "since you are going to marry my Dad and be my second Mommy do you think I could call you Mommy Bones now?"
For a second Booth looked at Bones afraid she would fail to see the importance the question and her correct answer. It would have a direct effect on their relationship, with each other and Parker. While if she said she would prefer, due to her feelings about children, he didn't Booth would accept it. It could put a strain where he wished one might not exist, but he would accept her decision. He need not have worried.
Brennan looked at Parker's face and knew this was a serious request. He was asking her to become his parent and in the nanosecond it took her to decide she replied "Parker I could not think of anything more rewarding. I am honored you think of me as one of your parental units."
Parker looked at his Father with a slight look of confusion. Booth smiled and said "she said yes and loves that you think she's a second Mommy." They both turned to Bones with their charm smiles on full. Brennan knew then these two were going to keep her on her toes and their smiles were going to be the death of her.
"Well" she said jumping up "to my phone calls. You guys finish your breakfast, and Booth can you bring me some coffee?"
Five minutes later Bones rejoined them in the living room. Parker was watching Cartoons as Bones slid onto the couch next to Booth. "Hey Babe are you done with the calls already?"
"Yes Booth and it was very strange. I called Angela and Wendell answered," she looked at the smile on Booth face "did you know about this?" He nodded his head in the affirmative. With a slightly negative shake of her head she continued "so anyway, she contends I must have the perfect dress and since the plane doesn't leave until noon we have time. So hurricane Angela will be here soon. Then I called Hodgins, he had someone spending the night. Anyway, he said he was glad about us and would call Cam. She would call everyone else since she had them all on speed dial. I told him to bring his date he laughed and said he surely would. So now all we have to do is wait for is hurricane Angela. Booth," she asked "why would Hodgins offer to call Cam and how did he know she had everyone on speed dial?"
Booth thought for a minute he knew Cam very well. Had he been so involved with Bones he had missed something? Could she and Hodgins be involved? Now that he actually thought about it, the last few weeks he had seen her she had seemed different. She was more relaxed, and closer to the team. She seemed to understand their inner workings better. If he were to think about it he would have thought she just had a better handle on their dynamic. Now, however, with Bones question he thought again, Hodgins and Cam? It was a distinct possibility; they would fit very well together she would fit quite well into his world. It might hurt Angela if she and Wendell didn't work out but he had a feeling they would. "Hey Babe" he murmured in her ear "what about Max, Russ Amy and the girls?"
"I talked to Dad earlier in the week he Russ, Amy and the girls were going fishing this weekend. I tried but they don't appear to have cell service where they are. All I got was the message saying the person you are trying to reach in out of the area. So I'll call on Tuesday and give them the news. It's ok Booth if they aren't here, they have missed so many of the high points of my life I have become accustomed to them being absent. I will have those whom I really are about there."
Just then there was loud, thunderous knocking at his door. They both got up and prepared themselves, Booth to answerer the door, and Bones to be bowled over by the storm. Booth opened the door and hurricane Angela blew in at full force flying to Bones and wrapping her in a hug. Wendell walked in behind her in a daze as he Booth and Parker watched in fascination as Angela began.
"Sweeite, so when did this happen, no scratch that, when did you start sleeping together? Are you living together? How long? Why have your kept it from me? I want all the juicy details, but we have to get going. You said the plane leaves at noon? That leaves us four hours, not a lot of time but I've gotten a lot done in less. Let's see we need a dress, shoes, flowers, your hair and nails done, I already called my salon they will be ready for us as soon as we arrive. Come on lets go we have a lot to do and not much time." Turning to Booth Angela said "and you Mister don't think you are off my list either. You owe me explications too but us girls have a lot to do. Wendell honey you are in charge of Booth and Parker. Take them somewhere and get them white slacks and Parker a white dress shirt. Booth has plenty of them, oh and white shoes too. They are all going to be dress in white. Then at eleven pick up the flowers I order. Have Booth and Parker back here at 11:30 and don't be late. Got it?"
"Angela" both Bones and Booth said unison; Bones continued "Booth does not need Wendell to guide him in the selection of clothes for his own wedding. Nor does he need Wendell to baby sit either himself or Parker."
"Look Sweetie, I love you to death but know this, you two are only going to get married once and this is it. You want to get married today with no warring ok, but it's going to be a wedding you will remember if it kills me. Now Brenn you are with me let's get you packed and to the salon. Wendell the shops open at nine you have your marching orders. Booth do as you are told or face my wrath. Let's go everyone.
Each rapidly went to do the bidding of hurricane Angela. She was at force 10 and to fuck with her meant you cared little for your life.
"So Wendell this is your first experience with hurricane Angela how does it feel?"
Looking over to make sure Parker once again was totally engrossed in his cartoons Wendell leaned in and in a low voice told Booth "it feels like I've been hit by a fucking brick wall. Is she often like this?"
Booth smiled at the man and said "not often but she can be. It's just best to do what she wants and keep your head down. The smoke clears soon. I hate shopping even if it's for either me or Parker. Do you have any ideas? We don't have to go a shoe store, since the wedding will be on a beach I am excising my prerogative as the groom to go without shoes. Who ever heard of walking on the sand in shoes?"
"Well for Parker we can go the GAP for KIDS I'm sure they have the slacks there. As for white slack's for you? I haven't a clue do you?"
"Well let's try where I buy my suits they either have them or know where to get them. Bones set me up with these guy's a long time ago and they have been my go to guy's ever since. They know where to buy anything clothing you would want. Come Parks chop chop we've got wedding clothes to buy." Parker drug his feet at first but one look at his father's face and he complied.
Angela was able to get quite a bit of information out of Brenn as they traveled around to get everything done. They found the perfect dress at the first boutique (one of their favorites). It was cream colored, long, flowing, linen. Gather just under her breasts with satin ribbons flowing down the back. Initially Brennan resisted saying she really wasn't a ribbon kind of girl. However, Angela persisted telling her it made a beautiful view from the back and that was the view most everyone would remember. It was the perfect dress for a beach wedding. Angela knew Brennan would not want the typical bridal bouquet so she ordered something she knew both of them would like. Brennan, like Booth, refused to buy shoes. No one wears shoes on the beach she told Angela. Then they went to the salon. True to her word they were waiting for her. Both Angela and Brennan were out of there and back at Booth's just as one of Jack's limo's was pulling up to take them all to the airport. Booth explained Jack had call and offered to pick up everyone and take them to the airport so it would not be necessary for them to leave their cars in airport parking on a holiday weekend. Once they were all inside they were able to relax from the hectic morning.
Booth leaned over and kissed Bones ear murmuring into it. He punctuated his words with little licks from his tongue sending shivers down Bones spine. "So did you find the perfect dress? Mmm, good. I am so glad you decided this was what you wanted, Bones before this really gets crazy I just want you to know I will love you for the rest of my life. I will honor and fight for your wants and desires for the rest of my life. While you have taught me change is inevitable I want all your changes to come from your desire to want that change."
Bones turned to look at him with unshed tears in her eyes. "Thank you Booth that means a lot to me knowing you understand me and are will to wait. I think as with everything you have done for me, my change on other ideas will change soon too."
"Bones does that mean you want to have a baby?"
"Booth it means I have been thinking about it. I would only consider it with you and don't press your luck. I am still in the theory stage." She said in her best squint voice as she turned to kiss him.
"Euwww, Parker said. "I thought I don't you guy's not to do that in front of me. I don't know why you keep doing it its disgusting"
"Yeah" Angela and Wendell agreed. Angela continued with "it's not fun to watch you guys have all the fun."
Booth just looked at Parker with Bones with a smirk and turned to Parker. With an even bigger smirk he said "one day Parker it won't be disgusting and we will all be trying to get you to stop, right Wendell," Booth said as he looked over at an embarrassed Wendell.
"Yeah Parker that's true, well what do you know here we are the terminal I wonder where Jack is?"
When they arrived at the terminal for private airlines they found the rest of their guests, Hodgins, Cam, Sweets, Daisy and surprisingly Dr. Cullen and his wife.
Bones looked at Booth with an arched eyebrow. "I decided there was someone I wanted from the Bureau after all is that ok, Booth asked with concern in his voice"
"Of course it is. At least this way we don't have to hide anything. Does this mean by his attendance he approves and will not split us up?"
"Yes it does. He told me he wondered why we had taken so long to come to this conclusion. He also mentioned he would not to terminate the most successful team he or the FBI has ever had. It didn't hurt he knew you and the squirts wouldn't work with anyone else. He really is one of the good guys."
"Yes he is," she said running her fingernail down his cheek just as the pilot told them all was to board.
They each took their seats and fastened their seatbelts Booth helping Parker with his. The plane backed away from the jet way and rolled to the runway. They were jetting off to their future. A future they did not know was there as they had worked their first case together. As the old commercial said Baby You've Come A Long Way.
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
I know some of you don't like the pairing of Angela and Wendell, but I think it makes much more sense. Besides come on folks he was the only one who helped her buy the piglet. Remember way back when Wendell first came to the lab he told Angela his college tuition had come from the working people in his neighborhood? It is highly unlikely she would have forgotten. So when he offered her all her had in his wallet it meant more to her than any amount she might have received from Brennan or Jack at that point. So once they got together I think it might be highly unlikely they would separate. As an aside here I am glad Bones gave her the money in the end. It was the right thing for a friend to do.
As for Cam and Hodgins, some in other fictions have put them together and to me they make a much better couple. His mean an unthinking statement to Angela about not asking him to be the one to break her fast, says to me he has not forgiven her and may never do so. As for his social requirements, not to say in any way is Angela inferior in this department but, Cam would make a better fit for these times. Hodgins must have Cantileversp things to do sometimes. There is also her reticence to move in with him. She agreed with Gordon Gordon when he said she should not move in until at least half of Hodgins clothes were in her closet. Now look at it with an open mind, Hodgins lives in a mansion, she lives in an apartment. Why would he leave his stuff there? Cam also would fit his quietness' better. I think he really feels his romantic relationship with Angela is over and they have returned to their previous good working relationship.
This is just my humble option what do you think? I am willing to be brought back from the dark side with enough persuasion.
This is the Part 1 of the Wedding. I envision it to be in three parts. This one, their vows and the reception, a brief honeymoon and their meeting with Rebecca. There may be an epilog if there is enough request for it.
Please review and let me know if there are any requests for the last chapters. Your chance to impact the story line is quickly coming to an end.
Love - Nyre
