Brennan was the first to wakeup, which was not a common occurrence, usually a jumping child was involved, but not today. She sat up in bed to see Booth fast asleep beside her, still in his Flyers shirt and jeans. Brennan ventured into Christine's room to also find her asleep, but Booth had made sure she was in her pajamas. The phone rang as Brennan closed the door to Christine's room, Brennan picked up her pace to answer if before it rung out.
"Hello?" Brennan spoke into the phone.
"Hi, Bones!" A little voice replied excitedly from the phone.
"Parker! How are you?" Brennan recognized the voice immediately, and there were only two people on earth who called her Bones, and one of them was asleep in the room next to her.
"I'm good." He replied. "Is dad there?"
"He's asleep, but I can wake him for you." Brennan answered, knowing Booth would want to be woken for Parker.
"Oh, no, that's okay." Parker reassured her, "I just wanted to see if you were going to be home later today. Mom said I could come for a visit if you were home."
"If you're coming of course we'll be here!" Brennan responded. "Your dad and Christine will be so excited when I tell them you're coming."
"Okay, awesome." Parker replied. "Mom says to tell you we should get there around twelve."
"Alright, see you then!" Brennan smiled and hung up the phone.
Booth had just woken up and walked out into the lounge room. He could see groceries and grocery bags on the counter, meaning Brennan had just returned from the store. He walked over to start unpacking the bags and pulled out a box of triple choc cookies, they were Parker's favorite and Brennan only bought them when she was expecting Parker. Booth looked up to see Brennan walking out of the Bathroom, she smiled at him.
"Is Parker coming?" Booth asked Brennan excitedly.
"Yes. He rang before. I expect him to arrive around twelve." Brennan replied. Brennan walked over so she was standing next to Booth. Booth noticed that she was holding something behind her back.
"What've you got there?" He asked, trying to looked behind her. She brought her hands out in front of her, holding a pregnancy test.
"It's positive." She said, smiling uncontrollably.
"What!?" Booth, now also smiling uncontrollably asked. "We're having another baby! Wait, don't you need to check with the doctor to make sure or something?" Booth asked her.
"I took the test last night, I just got back from the doctors. I am definitely pregnant" Brennan replied. Booth kissed Brennan on the lips, neither of them able to wipe the smiles off their face.
"Bones, we're having another baby!" Booth repeated, letting it sink in.
"But I'm your baby, Daddy." Christine said, she was standing at the bottom of the stairs with her hands on her hips. Booth looked at Brennan, trying to figure out what he should do. Brennan shook her head at Booth and bent down with her arms out stretched.
"Hey there gorgeous! Did you have fun last night?" Brennan asked her daughter who was now running into her arms.
"I did Mommy! I did!" Christine replied, and then went on to describe every single thing that happened. Booth and Brennan kept exchanging glances, hoping that Christine hadn't remembered what she had overheard.
"And guess what, bab...honey?" Booth jumped in as soon as Christine had stooped talking.
"What Daddy?" Christine turned to her father.
"Parker is coming over! And he is going to be here real soon." Booth told Christine, whose face lit up at the sound of her older brother's name.
"So how about you go pick out what you want to wear and I'll be up in a minute?" Brennan said to Christine.
"Okay Mommy." Christine replied and ran up the stairs.
"Well that was close." Booth said to Brennan.
"Yes," Brennan replied. "The pregnancy is only in its very, very early stages. I would hate to think about telling Christine if anything went wrong..." Brennan explained.
"Bones, nothing is going to go wrong." Booth said, wrapping one arm around Brennan's waist and placing his other hand on her stomach.
"I certainly am very excited, Booth." Brennan said, placing her hand on top of Booth's.
