Chapter 4
A/N: This is short, but it's all I have time for right now. Sorry! I hope I can update again soon. I'm on break for Thanksgiving right now, so expect another chapter soon!
A man walked along the sidewalk of DC purposefully, even though it was about 2 o'clock in the morning. He ignored everyone in his way, not that there were many, and kept going. He had a mission, and he was going to get it done.
The man walked towards the large house. He peered through the gate surrounding the mansion. There were several lights on, but the man couldn't see inside. He walked around the perimeter to the back of the house, where he could see more clearly. The bushes were thicker here, but the man squeezed himself behind them so he was pressed into the large fence.
He could now see into a couple windows. The kitchen light was on, and a curly haired man was pulling something out of what looked to be a refrigerator. The man turned and walked out of the kitchen.
The man appeared in the room next door, where two women were dancing crazily. The man sat down on the couch and set what he was carrying down on a table. The women stopped dancing and grabbed the items the man had been carrying. When they held the objects to their lips, the man watching assumed they were beverages.
The women put down the drinks and sat down on the ground. The watching man couldn't see them anymore. The man inside stood up and walked past another window. He reappeared a few minutes later. The man turned out the lights, and a bluish glow flickered over the people. The watching man figured they were watching a movie.
The man outside pulled away from the fence, fought his way out of the bushes, and walked off. He wandered around the mansion, scoping out the fences and other security measures that were around. Eventually, he walked away into the darkness.

August sighed. She felt relaxed and happy for the first time in a while. Hodgins was sitting on the couch holding a soda, and she and Angela were on their sleeping bags on the floor. They were watching Talladega Nights, which had to be the funniest movie August had ever seen.
"Dear Sweet Baby Jesus, or as our brothers in the South like to call you, Jesus…." He pronounced the second Jesus as Hey-zeus, which of course sent Angela, August, and Hodgins into another laughing fit. They were having a blast, and August felt pretty normal again.
The movie ended, but Angela, Hodgins, and August were all fast asleep. August's phone rang a few hours later, waking them all.
"Hello?" August said into the phone.
"August? We're outside." Booth's voice said.
"Awww. Well then I guess I'll be out soon."
"Ok." August shut the phone and grabbed all her stuff. "Well, thanks guys. I had tons of fun. But I have to go now."
"Alright, Sweetie. I'll see you later, ok?" Angela asked.
"Yeah. Soon. Definitely." August replied she hugged Angela, and, after a moment's hesitation, wrapped her arms around Hodgins too, stunning him. He smiled and hugged August back. August released him and they all walked to the door.
"Bye!" Angela and Hodgins yelled.
"Bye," August replied. She walked out of the house and climbed into the SUV. August greeted Booth and Brennan.
"Well we were going to go to the lab, but you're in your pajamas," Booth stated.
"Sorry. Your phone call woke us up."
"It's noon! What time did you go to bed?"
"I don't know, like 4 am or so."
"I thought you couldn't sleep past 8!"
"Well apparently I can because I did."
"Well I'll take you home then."
Brennan broke in. "But I have to get to the lab!"
"Booth, you should drop her off at the lab. We can go back to your apartment, I can shower, and then we can head back to the lab," August suggested.
"Ok then. Sounds good." Booth dropped Brennan off at the lab, and then headed back to his aparment.
A/N: Hope you enjoyed! I won't ask for reviews because that sometimes bugs me, but I'd like feedback if you guys don't mind :)
