Tempe sat on the couch with Parker at her side she looked down at him and forced a smile as Booth stood behind her pacing back and forth while on the phone. Parker looked up to her and gave her a smile in return before looking back to the TV that played a cartoon that all Tempe understood was about a talking sponge that lived under the sea in some fruit. She rested her hands over the protruding stomach and looked back to see Booth walking into the hallway out of earshot of both her and Parker.

"I'm hungry." Parker mumbled never turning from the TV.

"What would you like to eat?" Tempe asked trying to get up, but found it harder than she thought. Parker was up from his seat and walked into the kitchen searching for something to munch on. When he returned Temperance smiled as he sat on the couch eating a chocolate ice cream cone and handed her one. "Thank you." She said taking it from him to eat.

"My mommy said that when she was going to have me she liked chocolate and lots of it. I thought because you're having a baby also you would want some." He explained changing the channel to a show where a bunch of kids sang on a basketball court about how they were all in it together. "Mommy?" Parker asked after singing along with the song.

"What?" she asked looking over to him. They had agreed to him calling her Tempe or Dr. Bones, but he always ended up turning back to calling her mommy. She had let it pass and figured that it was better than nothing.

"Where do babies come from?" He asked placing his hand on her stomach and looking up at her.

"Well you see…" she started out, but was stopped mid sentence by Booth's hand covering her mouth.

"Hey buddy, what did I tell? Not until your older right?" Booth asked letting his hand fall from her mouth and to her shoulder. "No matter how much he begs, don't tell him." He said leaning down to place a kiss on her lips then walked over to Parker to kiss him on his cheek.

"Wait! Where are you going?" she asked turning to see him walk out the door, his phone was no longer to his ear, but was now in his hand.

"I have to go and run a few errands." He said opening the door and heading out. "Parker, help her out as much as you can, OK?" he asked and received a nod from the child in return. Once Booth was gone Tempe sat watching cartoons with Parker for an hour before she was pulled away by the phone ringing.

"Booth." She answered immediately placing the phone to her ear. "Oh, hey Angela. No I'm home watching Parker until Booth gets back, he said he had some errands to run. Any update on the cases?" There was a silence followed by a small conversation about how she was supposed to be enjoying her day off instead of worrying about the case. "Look I was just wondering, how do I spend quality time with him?"

Tempe sat on a bench overlooking the playground that Parker played around with his friends from school. Looking down to the book at hand, one titled 'Everything You Need to know About Having a Baby'. She had lost herself in trying to memorize the knowledge she would need to know in trying to make the case convincing that she failed to notice that it had started to rain, and most of Parker's friends had started to leave. He quietly made his way to her side and nudged her.

"Mommy, I think it's time to go home." He whispered looking around at the empty playground and jumped as a raindrop fell on his forehead.

"I think you're right." She said getting up from the bench with his help and they walked the small distance home.

As they approached the door a small note was posted to it addressed to her. Looking at it curiously Tempe grabbed the note and read over it. 'In the room there is a surprise, don't thank me just yet. I just had to do it. Thanks for the spare key. Love Angela.' Tempe opened the door and with Parker at her side she found that the small room in the corner she had left empty had been converted into a baby room. The walls were painted with soft blue and pink colors and a small crib sat in the middle of the room as stuff animals lined the walls.

Resting on the child's dresser was another small note and a large envelop. 'Like I said, don't thank me, the money was all from him, he left specific directions along with the money and everything else, I merely decorated it. I hope you love it. Angela.' she then quickly opened the envelope to find another note along with more money, only difference was the hand writing was different. 'Congratulations on the child. I only wish we could be there to see you, but as you know we must stay in hiding for our safety. I hope someday soon I will see my grandchild. Love your father. P.S. your brother says hi.'

That was it, a simple note from her father and money promised to go to the child. She knew things had gotten out of hand, that all of it was unnecessary considering there was no child to be had, but instead she cried, knowing that people loved her so much and cared so much they would do all they could to see her happy.

"Are you ok, mommy?" Parker asked walking to her side and looked up to her.

"I'll be fine. What do you say to helping me with dinner? Huh?" he looked up to her and nodded. He ran ahead of her into the kitchen as she looked back on the room leaving the money and note there for when Booth came home. She stood a while staring before closing the door and walked into the kitchen to find Parker looking into the cabinets with the pasta strainer on his head.

"Mommy? Can we have psgetti?" he asked holding the strainer up for her to grab.

"Why not?" she asked rinsing it off and started to boil the water.

Later that night after reading Parker his bedtime story, Tempe sat sleeping on the couch with Parker asleep on the small space of her lap. The TV played the news as both of them slept peacefully. Booth entered the apartment and smiled at the cute picture of his wife and son sleeping soundly. He quietly walked over and picked Parker up, carrying him to his room where he placed him in the bed and covered him up. Once certain he was comfortable he walked back into the living room, pulled Tempe forward into his arms and undid the strap that held Tammy the Bulging Tummy to her, he then picked her up and carried her sleeping all the way into the room, only to leave and retrieve the prosthetic stomach and throw it into the closet.

Once dressed and ready for bed, he undressed Tempe and quickly dressed her into her pajama's before turning out the light and crawling into bed next to her. He smiled as he found her automatically turning on her side to sleep on his chest.

"Mommy? Daddy?" the voice was drowned out by the rain and thunder outside, but it woke Tempe up with a start, she looked to the clock behind Booth that read 1:34 am before turning her gaze to the doorway where Parker stood crying and carrying his stuff bear.

"What's wrong?" she asked trying to shove a pillow beneath her shirt realizing Booth had taken off her pregnant belly.

"I can't sleep, I'm scared." He cried, she lay there watching him for a moment struggling with the pillow before finally succeeding and offering if he wanted to sleep with them. He quickly ran from the doorway and onto the bed where she made room for him to sleep between them. "night mommy." he said yawning.

"Night baby." she whispered finding the term of endearment fall from her lips and smiled as he wrapped his arms around her neck to hold her close.

It was early the next morning that Tempe woke up to find the bed empty. As she changed and dressed, placing Tammy around her stomach, she left the room and headed into the living room to find Parker eating a bowl of cereal and watching cartoons as Booth stood in the kitchen cooking an egg.

"Good morning." Booth said kissing her on the head and handing her a cup of coffee.

"Morning." she said taking it gratefully. "what time did you get home last night?" she asked after a moments silence.

"About ten, I found you and Parker asleep on the couch, put him and you to bed only to find both of you on me this morning." he joked placing the egg on a plate with toast and gave it to her, she thanked him with a smile and a soft peck on the lips.

"He wanted a bedtime story, so I gave it to him, he woke up unable to sleep so we watched some TV and fell asleep, then this morning around two he woke up scared of the lightning and thunder so I let him sleep with us." she said walking over to the couch to sit next to Parker.

"Yeah, well just be lucky you got the pillow in your shirt fast enough." he whispered to her as they walked over to him and sat down to watch some TV.

"It wasn't easy." she whispered back.

Later that day after eating breakfast, Parker couldn't contain himself any longer and rushed over to the new room to show his dad what his Aunt Angela had surprised his new mommy and little brother or sister with. After which they had agreed to get ready and head down to the lab to thank Angela in person. As they left, he stood in the shadows watching closely, mentally calculating his perfect time to send it. His message would come soon, as would her disappearance. It wouldn't be much longer now, only a matter of time before he could strike.
