thanks for your reviews :) and i decided to have a mix of assistants :P -- Oh and i'm going to have some scenes without Brennan in 3rd person...

3- Hormones

"Yes." Grinned Angela, "Can I talk to you for a minute?" She seemed to be asking but she had grabbed onto Booth's arm and was pulling him to her part of the lab,

I looked from them to Hodgins who was smirking at me, "What?" I asked, irritated,

"You haven't denied it baby." He chuckled, walking away,

I stood still for a moment longer but shrugged and made my way to the remains.

Angela pulled Booth by his arm into her work area and shut the door before pouncing.

"Why aren't you out there?" She hissed at him,

"What?"

"Shh!" Angela shushed him and pulled him further into the room, "Some guy rapes Brennan and you're not out there hunting him down?"

"Angela, listen-"

"No." She interrupted, "You listen here Booth, that's my best friend, and she doesn't deal with these things like normal people, but you have no excuse! You're going to go out there and use all your magical FBI skills to find this rapist and throw him in jail for what he did to Brennan."

Booth looked Angela in the eye, "Angela." He said, "You have no idea how much I wish I could do that, but I can't. No one can. There's nothing that can be done and no way to prove a rape actually occurred. Too much time has past for anything, no rape kit, no hairs, no semen, no tox-screen and no memory. There's nothing we can do, I'm sorry."

Angela's face fell, "Damn it."

"I know." He sighed, "I hate it too."

"What about the baby?" Ange asked, her face lifting, "We can test the baby for DNA, see if it's on file?"

"We can't."

"What? Why not?"

"It's too early in the pregnancy, she's only eight weeks."

"And she'd never agree to it." Angela stated, disheartened.

"Yea." Sighed Booth, "But on the bright side, we're gonna meet a baby Bones."

Angela let out a laugh, "Yea… Are you ok with it?"

"With what?"

"Brennan having a baby… with someone else."

"Oh." Booth's wall built up, "Yea. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Don't give me that." Sighed Angela, "We all know. Well… all of us except Bren."

"Right, well. I have to go…" Booth left,

Booth walked to me and gave me a tense smile. "Hey there, Bones." He clapped his hands together and walked to the table where the remains I were examining, sat. "Whatcha got here?"

"Remains of a male, roughly thirty years old, they were found in an archaeological dig. I've been asked to date them." I told him looking over the bones,

"Sounds like fun." he commented,

"Is this one of those times when you say something but mean the opposite?" I asked, not looking up from my work,

"Uhh…Yea. Yes it is."

I nodded slowly, "What did Angela want?"

"What? Oh, you know, protective stuff."

"Protective stuff?"

"Well she's your best friend Bones, she loves you like a sister and she's worried about you."

"Worrying is illogical."

"Not for Angela. Not for the people that care about you."

I looked up from my work and studied Booth's kind face, he was closer then before, closer then anyone else would stand.

"Do you care about me?" I asked, and I was momentarily surprised that my voice had changed to become a sort of whimper.

He moved closer still and brought his hand up to touch my cheek gently, "Of course I do." he whispered,

He was looking into my eyes deeply, and I felt a fluttering in my stomach as hormones raced through my blood stream, my heart beating faster.

My eyes dropped from his and focused on his lips, we were so close. His head dropped and I knew he was going to kiss me, I knew it.

"Er-Hmm."

Booth and I were caught by the element of surprise, Booth jolted backwards taking steps away from me, I turned and tried to refocus on my work as Clark walked from the top of the stairs to the remains shaking his head and muttering quietly.

"Dr. Edison." I said, my voice even, "What can you tell me?"

Clark looked over the remains and droned out his findings while I watched rather longingly as Booth walked away.

Review please :)
