:( I didn't get
it up before the episode:( sorrrrrrry!! Hope you'll still read
it and review though!!
"Do you think we'll get out of here?" Temperance asked, gasping for breath.
"I don't know, I hope so though," Hodgins looked at his cell phone. There were two bars left in the battery. "I've got to call Angela," he whispered.
Tempe nodded. "I need to make a call too."
"All right, one last call for each of us, and three minutes a call," Hodgins pressed 1 on speed dial again.
"Hello?? Hodgie??" Angela's voice was quivering.
"Ange, I only have three minutes to talk, then it's Dr. Brennan's turn, listen baby, and never forget this, you and I are meant to be, I'll always love you, hell, you'll probably be the last woman I ever love," Hodgins chuckled so lightly, Angela couldn't even believe that was the laugh she loved so much.
"Jack, you won't die, I promise… Probably be the last woman?" Ange couldn't help smiling to herself.
"No, you will be the last, and only woman I ever love," tears were falling down Hodgins cheeks, and Tempe was worried. She'd never seen Hodgins cry before.
"I know," Angela was crying on the other line.
"Baby, we are the magnetic field, and we'll be together forever," Hodgins whispered. "I love you."
Hodgins heard Angela's sobs on the other end. "I love you too, so much, you won't die Jack, we have a whole life to be together! Booth is on his way, you won't die, I promise."
"I've got to go now. Temperance wants to call her brother I think," Hodgins was getting tired, there wasn't much oxygen left.
"I love you so much Jack, don't die, do it for me, do it for…" she trailed off.
"Do it for who Ange?" Hodgins couldn't help but ask.
"Do it for our baby," Angela was sobbing even harder now.
"You… you're pregnant?" Hodgins asked, shocked.
"I found out today Hodgins, I wanted to tell you as soon as you got here. I need you here, please?" Angela whispered.
"I'll try, goodbye Angela, if I don't make it, never forget me, no matter who else comes into your life," Hodgins was trying so hard to control his breaths.
"I'll always remember you, see you soon Hodgie," Angela hung up and collapsed on the floor of the Jeffersonian in tears.
"Your turn," Hodgins said in a horse whisper.
Tempe didn't say anything, she just dialed a number by memory.
"Booth," came a voice from the other end.
Tempe began to cry.
"Hodgins? Is that you?" Booth sounded more worried now. "I know where you are, we're almost there."
"Booth, it's me," Tempe said, in a quiet, raspy voice.
"Bones? Bones, we're almost there! I promise, we'll find you, I swear," Booth said, he sounded so worried it killed Temperance.
"Booth, I guessed about an hour and a half ago and we only have about two more minutes. I called to say, goodbye, to one of my best friends," Tempe gasped for a second. She was sweating like crazy. "I only have a few moments Booth, I want you to know, that I always held you in high respect," Tempe couldn't say what she really wanted to say, it just wouldn't work out and she didn't want to hurt Booth when he found her dead body.
"Bones, you are not going to die," Booth said. "You can't, we're already digging, the teams been digging for the last twenty minutes," Booth said. "I didn't know though."
"Booth I… Wait…" Temperance had seen something hit the glass. "Booth!!" she yelled into the phone. "Booth! They've found us! We're ok!"
Hodgins was smiling, in spite of how sore he was.
Temperance reached over and hugged him, with tears in her eyes.
XXXXXXXXXX
Hodgins and Angela were sitting side by side as the paramedics checked Hodgins' injuries.
Temperance was sitting in the hot air, taking in deep breaths. She was so happy to be out of that box.
"Hey Bones, how are ya?" Booth asked walking up and sitting down beside her.
"Tired, sore, still a little shook up but happy."
"Happy? Other than being alive, why are you happy?" he asked.
"Because, my best friends are all alive too, Hodgins, you, me, Angela, Zach, we're all here," Tempe said. "But now, I have to get back to the Jeffersonian."
"Why is that Bones?" Booth asked.
"Because, this guy is still out there Booth, he's going to choose another victim, and I need to find him so we can lock him away," Temperance smiled and then she saw a man staring at her.
"Who's that?" she pointed at him.
"He's an author who wrote the book about the Grave Digger."
"I don't like the way he's looking at me Booth, let's go," Temperance pulled herself up off the ground and helped Booth up after her.
A/N What do you think?? Pretty much this whole chapter is Hodgela in a way, but whatever. Do you like it? And yes I threw in the author from the episode last night (that ep is in the top 3 that I've seen!!) R&R!!
