Not mine! Please review, i need some ideas on how to beat the Company...
It took me some time to get this first part right. I had started out with Booth waking up and seeing Bones holding Parker as they both slept. And then I was trying to figure out how to fit Angel into the whole waking up scene, and came up with this.

Bones woke slowly the next morning, and stretched. Lying on her back, she immediately noticed Booth when she opened her eyes. The Agent's head was resting on her stomach; his deep, warm breathing tickling the bare skin where her shirt had ridden up during sleep. Stubble grazed the tender skin, but she found it soothing. His arms were wrapped around her, and their legs were tangled together intimately. Brennan's right hand was buried in Booth's tousled hair, and as she ran her fingers through it, it stuck up in all directions.
Bones let out a deep sigh of contentment, and snuggled further into the covers, wriggling against Booth to try to get comfortable. The movement woke up Booth, who tightened his arms around the squirming anthropologist.
"Stop moving, Bones." He groaned into her stomach, still half asleep. Booth was jolted fully awake when Brennan flipped them over so that she was on top, her head now on his stomach.
"Hmmmm. Much better..." she mumbled, eyes shut as she buried her face in his stomach. Then she opened one eye and looked around. "What time is it?"
"7:30."
"We have to be at Dad's at 8, and we all have hair appointments at 9."
"I should go get Parker up, but I'm too comfortable." Booth murmured, running his fingers through Brennan's hair.
"Then I'll get Parker up, you just lay here and be lazy." Said Brennan, getting up and fixing her shirt.
"Fine by me." Booth mumbled, relaxing back into the pillows.
Brennan walked over to Parker's makeshift room in the home office. She quietly pushed open the door, and observed the scene inside.
Parker and Angel lay on the small cot, the two so tangled up it was hard to tell where boy ended and dog began. Bones felt arms wrap around her from behind, and she sank into their embrace.
"Look at them, Bones. Did you know he's always wanted a dog?" They stood in silence, breathing deeply. After a long time, Angel stirred, yawned, and stretched. Her tail wagged when she saw Booth and Brennan, and the movement woke Parker.
The look on the little boy's face was priceless. He was shocked to see a doggie in his bed, and he stared to laugh as Angel licked his face.
"Good Morning, Parker!" Booth said cheerily.
"'Morning, Daddy! What's the doggie's name?" asked Parker.
"Her name is Angel. Parker, we have a few things to do today, but first we are going to go have breakfast at Max's, okay?" Booth said.
"Yay! Are Uncle Zack and Uncle Jack going to be there?" Brennan raised an eyebrow at Booth.
"They said it was ok." he shrugged. "Your Auntie Angela will be there too. And Ziggy."
"Is Ziggy my Aunt too?" asked Parker.
"Umm. I don't know, you'll have to ask her, buddy. Come on, let's get up."

At 8-o-clock, they knocked on Max's door. Ziggy opened the door, and ushered them in. Everyone was sitting around the kitchen counter on mis-matched chairs and stools, eating pancakes. Once they were all seated and eating, the conversation flowed easily around the table. Zack and Jack were discussing job interviews, which were going to take place later in the day.
"So, do you think you can get on as an assistant?" asked Jack.
"I don't know. But it would be good if you could get a job as entomologist with us. We could be a team again, like in DC." Zack answered.
Angela and Brennan and Ziggy were discussing hair colors.
"So Bren, do you want to be twins in red, or blond?"
"I told you, I'm not going blond!" answered an angry Brennan.
"Are you serious about the blue?" asked Ziggy.
Booth and Max were talking about security measures they would need to take.
"The guys and Bones could use their papers to prove they are Dr's, but they'd have to change the names. We all probably need new identities." Booth said, chewing thoughtfully on his pancakes. "These are really good." he added.
Parker slid out of his seat and crept over to Ziggy. He tugged on her sleeve to get her attention.
"Yes, Parker?" she said, looking down at the little boy.
"Are you my Auntie?" he asked, face a picture of innocence.
Ziggy looked shocked for a minute, and she stuttered for a moment in the silence that had suspended over the group. "If you want me to be, Parker." she finally blurted out.
"Yes, please!" he exclaimed, jumping into Ziggy's arms. The girl returned Parker's hug, and then set him down on the ground with a big grin on her face.
Booth mouthed 'Thank you' heading out into the hall, gesturing for Bones to follow him.
"What are we going to do about Parker?" asked a worried Booth. "I can't take him with me if I go to work."
"We could take him... we will all be in the same building, the guys, Ange, Ziggy and me. We'd switch off watching him."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. But, Booth, you know I'm not that good with-" Booth cut her off with a kiss. "You're wonderful. Max and I think that you and the boys can use your papers and such to prove you are doctors. Then you wouldn't have to sign on as assistants. We'd change the names, of course. Gonna have to figure those out after lunch..."
"Booth?" asked Brennan.
"What, Bones?"
"There is NO way I'm going to be blond, so stop hoping." Booth put on his best puppy dog face, but Brennan just rolled her eyes.
