I finally updated :) sorry about the wait! Enjoy:
Booth looked down at the baby in his arms. He didn't remember that he and Brennan were tpgether, nor that they were having a baby together. But now, holding the tiny little girl, he felt overwhelmed with love for it.
"She's beautiful, Tempe," he said, looking over to his...well, he didn't really know what to call her. They weren't exactly married, and he didn't remember that they were dating so he was at a loss at what she was to him. But, looking over at her in the hospital bed, pale and exhausted, he felt that this was right. That they were meant to be together like this. He walked closer to Brennan and placed the baby in her arms. "Kara. It's a perfect" he said.
"You named her that," she smiled, pulling the blanket away from her little girls face.
"I did?"
"Yes. While you were in the coma. You named her Kara. Didn't I tell you that?" she said, smiled up at him. He kissed her on the lips. Yes, that felt right.
"No, you didn't, Tempe. Even when I'm unconscious with the possibility of never waking up again, I can still make big decisions," he laughed softly. "It's a beautiful name."
"It is. Kara Booth," she looked at the baby again.
"She looks just like you," Booth said, touching the baby's head softly.
"But she's got your eyes," she replied. They both smiled at the baby girl. After several minutes silence he noticed that she'd fallen asleep. Removing his daughter gently from her arms, he moved over to the hospital window, cradling her. He looked out at the city, the sky dark blue and the lights glimmering. It was beautiful, just like the baby girl in his arms.
"Kara, you might not know this, well you defiantly don't know this, but I'm your dad," he explained to her. "But, you see, the thing is...I don't really remember anything about the last year or so, so I don't really know either. It kinda feels like I woke up one morning and someone said 'this is who you are. You love this woman and you have a daughter.' It's strange and it doesn't make a lot of sense. But then, I also have this feeling that it makes heaps of sense. That this - me, you and Tempe – is right. That it fits, you understand? I feel like we belong together. And do you think that matters, Kara? Do you think we can still have that spark, even if I have no idea how we feel so much in love?" The baby kicked softly and placed her hand in her mouth. "That's what I thought, Kara. I think it's possible. I mean, if we love each other that much...It's defiantly possible."

"Welcome home," said Brennan, gesturing around the apartment.
"Wait, I live with you?" Booth asked.
"Yes, we figured that my apartment was big enough to house both of us," she watched as he looked around, taking it all in.
"Wow. We really are together," he looked as though it had just begun to sink in.
"Yeah, we are," Brennan sat on the couch, placing a hand to her large stomach. "I hope you'll remember one day."
"Me too, Bones."
"Come here," she said suddenly. Booth rushed to the couch, thinking something was wrong with his girlfriend/wife/partner or whatever she was to him now.
"What is it?" Saying nothing, her grabbed his hand and placed it on her stomach. She watched in delight as his face morphed into a huge smile, as he felt his daughter kicking inside her mother's stomach. She laughed as he placed his ear on her stomach.
"I feel her kicking," he said, in delight. "It's amazing."
"It is, isn't it?" Brennan agreed. "Obviously, this was the first time I'd felt anything like it, so when she first kicked I was astounded."
"I love you, Temperance," he said, placing a hand back on her large tummy.
"Really? Even though you don't remember?"
"Of course," he replied. "This feels so right."
"I agreed, Seeley," she smiled and rested her head on his shoulder. "I love you too."
