"Girls, time for bed." Temperance said, shrugging her shoulder that Anna's head was currently resting on. Lily sat on the other side of Anna, her head on Booth's shoulder.

"Aw…" Lily said as she yawned.

"See? You're tired." Booth said, smiling down at the look his daughter gave him.

"No we're not." Anna said, attempting to snuggle into Temperance's stomach when her mother stopped her. Anna looked up with concern in her big brown eyes. "What's wrong momma?" She asked. Temperance and Booth had yet to tell them about what she had discovered two months previous. Yes, her stomach was slightly swollen, but only slightly. There was no way Anna and Lily could've noticed.

"Girls, there's something your mom and I need to talk to you about." Booth said, sitting up and pulling Lily onto his lap.

"Did I hurt mommy?" Anna asked, tears forming in her eyes as she looked at her father. "I didn't mean to, I swear!" She said.

"No, sweetie. You didn't hurt me." Temperance said, rubbing Anna's unruly curls. "It's just…" She tried to begin, looking to Booth for assistance.

"Girls, do you remember when you found out that you had a big brother?" He asked, trying to explain as best he could to two five-year-olds.

"You mean Parker?" Lily asked, smiling.

"Yeah princess." Booth said. "Well you two are gonna have another brother or sister." He said bluntly, waiting for the twins' reaction.

"You mean like Parker?" Anna asked, scrunching her face up like her mother.

"Sweetie, this one is going to be a baby." Temperance said.

"A baby?" Anna asked, her eyes wide with excitement. Temperance nodded and Anna quickly twisted around and looked at her sister.

"We's gonna have a baby sister?" Lily squealed.

"Or brother…" Booth said, squeaking Lily's nose and making her giggle. "It's in mommy's stomach, growing big until it's ready to come out and meet you."

"Yay!" The twins yelled, each jumping on the respective parent.

"Yes, yay. But now it's time for bed." Booth said, standing up with Lily in his arms.

"I don't wanna." Anna said, crossing her arms and pouting on the couch. Temperance stood up and looked down at her daughter, mimicking her stance.

"Aw…Bones and mini bones." Booth said, standing in the doorway. Temperance turned around to glare at him, and when she turned back she noticed Anna gone.

"Annabelle Nicole Booth!" She shouted. Booth set Lily down so he help Temperance search, but once he was far enough away, Lily ran for it. Temperance saw and tilted her head to side, looking at Booth. He raised an eyebrow at her, and she gestured to the now empty space behind him. Booth spun around and groaned, seeing that Lily was no longer in her spot.

"Great…" He said, running his hand through his hair. "Wasn't the TV supposed to calm them down for bed?" He added.

"Yeah…" Temperance replied. "You're the FBI agent. Find them." She said, waving her arms around. Booth glared at her, then motioned for her to be quiet. She rolled her eyes, but kept her mouth shut. Booth squinted his eyes and leaned his head towards the kitchen. He did some signals to her that meant for her to go around the other way into the kitchen. They both went their separate ways, and when Temperance was walking into the hallway she heard the twins scream.

"No daddy!" Anna said as Temperance watched him carry them both back into the living room, each of them under one of his arms sideways.

"I don't wanna go to sleep!" Lily squealed, wriggling and trying to get out of Booth's grasp.

"Girls, if you don't behave we won't go to the Jeffersonian tomorrow." He said, silencing Anna and Lily. Booth watched as they both looked up at him, their eyes wide. "Oh yes, I went there." He said, smiling.

"I don't know what that means." Lily said as Booth set them down, keeping a firm grip on their shoulders.

"Not letting you go to the Jeffersonian worked as a punishment and now you're talking like Bones?" Booth said, shaking his head as he guided Anna and Lily up the stairs and into their bedroom. "I can't believe my daughters are turning into squints…" He mumbled.

"What's a squint?" Anna and Lily asked simultaneously.
