"It seems so strange walking around here again." A heavily pregnant woman stated, she stopped for a moment, took a deep breath and then started walking again.
"I know. No i.d.'s, we aren't special anymore." her companion waited for her to finish her stretch.
"I'm not special." The woman repeated, giving him a look that combined with her hormones put fear into him.
"No I just mean here, we can't touch evidence or anything." the shorter man babbled.
"Sure buddy." Like always the automatic doors parted when they sensed the two approaching.
"Well the doors are the same." He noted; the Medico Legal Lab of the Jeffersonian was relatively the same since they had left thirteen months ago. It was cleaner than a very nice and expensive hospital and seem well equipped with interns and doctors clad in their work attire of a lab coat. Around lights were on in offices with people walking in and out of them. The man picked up on that most of them were on.
"Who's in my office?" The man was standing on tip toe to see over the raised platform were most of the interns were milling around.
"Let me do it." Walking with her hands on her back she shuffled to the side of the platform closest to the said room were a young woman was working. The man rushed to her side. "Who is it?"
"I don't know. She's probably an intern or something."
"She's a little bit better than an intern, she actually has had her doctorate for quite some time now." came a voice from behind them, whoever it was their accent was remarkably similar to that of Nigel Murray's. Turning they saw a tall balding middle aged man; Clad in a plaid bow tie and a lab coat, revealing him to be a Dr. Ethan Williams.
"Yea..." The man said running his hand through his hair.
"Hi." The woman waved slightly and gave a large smile.
"I'm Dr. Williams and you two are?" he trailed off.
"Well I'm Dr. Hodgins."
"I'm Angelea, we used to work here."
"Yes, I've heard much about you two from Dr. Saroyan and Dr. Sweets."
"Oh, and where's Cam now?" the man asked, peering through the group of people on the platform he couldn't see her.
"Dr. Saroyan should be in her office."
"Thank you." they said in unison, something that had started to develop since they found out about the baby.
"Must be working in paleontology or something." Angelea whispered down to Jack.
"Yea. Well he's a long way from home then." he replied watching as the formal Dr. Walker walked back towards the platform, swiped his i.d. badge and pulled on a pair of gloves, all in a proper fashion.
"Lets go find Cam, my feet hurt." Again she readjusted herself and
"I'm not rubbing this time." Jack had to lay the law down before the question was posed.
"I only made you do that once in public."
"At a cafe in New York City." He rebutted.
"Leave me alone I'm pregnant." she smacked Jack's arm and while he rubbed the throbbing appendage she waddled ahead off to her former boss.
"Knock knock!" Came the oh so memorable voice of Angelea. Cam at the moment was talking to the from young women earlier, who was leaning agaisnt a chair arm.
"Angelea!" Cam looked up and the smile that had already been present on her features brightened.
"Hey I'm back!" she stood with her arms outstretched waiting for the hug.
"Oh my god!" it was obvious that when the two would come back from France that they would be having a little Hodgins coming back with them.
"I know!"
"You're huge!"
"Leave me alone," she
"It's a good huge."
"I manage to pull the look off." Angelea laughed as Cam reached over her stomach to hug her shoulders.
"Is Hodgins here with you?"
"Yea he was just freaking out that someone took his office." Angelea broke the hug to support her back again and rolled her eyes.
"Oh. Yea, anyways, Angelea this is the medico legal labs new Toxicologist and Entomologist, Dr. Evie Collins. Evie this was our Facial Re-constructionist and Computer Tech Angelea Montenegro."
"It's nice to meet you." Said Evie shyly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear before taking Angelea's hand. "You actually look really good. My mom always got a lot bigger when she was pregnant."
"Oh, I guess that's good. I just feel like I have to check behind me before I turn in case I hit something."
Both Cam and Evie laughed, "I should get going I have to go talk to DEW before he leaves."
Cam coughed and stared at the young women.
"Um I mean Dr. Walker before he leaves." Evie shuffled out to the door where she said a quiet bye and closed the door.
"Is that the english dude?" Angelea asked when she took a chair in front of Cam's desk.
"Yea. We needed a replacement for Brennnan."
"What do you mean replacement?"
"Well when you guys all left it wasn't like all the murders were going to stop to. I needed to get another team. Dr. Walker came out of retirement when one of his friends said that I was looking for an forensic anthropologist. Evie was referred to me by the FBI Labs in Boston."
"Did you get someone to replace me?" Angelea looked as though she was a bit upset by the news.
"No, I send them out to a specialist at the University of Pennsylvania."
"Oh, so what happens when Jack and Brenn want there jobs back."
"That part I'm still working on." To avoid eye contact Cam started to shuffle papers into folders, no matter which one they were actually supposed to be in.
"Well Brenn was going away on research, it wasn't like she quit, she went away to make a discovery which is her actual job in the first place working at a museum."
"Yes. But we needed someone to solve the murders that the FBI wanted us to solve."
"Who took Booth's job? If its the Perotta agent I swear..."
"No, Perotta doesn't work with us."
"Thank god," Angelea sighed, "Who's the agent then?"
Jack was a little more than mad that Cam had given someone his office. Most of things were the same besides for the major lack of bugs. Where were they? In the medico legal lab it was little more than important to have bugs to use for evidence.
"Ummmmm." a females voice came from behind, and how it sounded young meant that it probably was an intern.
"It's okay. I used to work in here and I haven't touched anything." Jack explained while turning away from the door.
"No, I kind of just have to get in there and get my lab coat, Dr. Bancroft I heard is coming around and I don't want to get fired." Evie explained, she looked down at her star tight covered legs and bright maroon skirt.
"Oh, is this your office?" Jack was a bit surprised that someone this young had gotten his office, it was his office when he left.
"Yea." To Evie it seemed a bit obvious, if her lab coat was in here that it must be her office.
"Where are the bugs? There are absolutely none in here." He sounded a bit disgusted by the fact, actually Jack was very disgusted by that fact, they were his bugs in his office.
"Excuse me?"
"The bugs." Now she got it.
"Oh, since I've been here they've been in the room next door, Cam said that this was supposed to be an office not a bug zoo. I actually wouldn..."
"Are you an Entomologist?"
"Yea."
"Then you need bugs in your office." It was as plain as that.
"I know."
"Oh."
"But I need room for the toxicology machines, because I'm a toxicologist as well, which takes more priority because you know they both include chemically stuff."
"Oh, yea." he now looked at the diagnostic machines that covered mostly every surface.
"True dat." she turned and carried on walking to the swirly chair which had her lab coat and bag, with most of its contents spewn across the desk's surface.
"So you are?"
"Dr. Evie Collins."
"Do you know the Brit out there?"
"Which one? One of the three interns we have or the anthropologist?"
"They got a new anthropologist?" Cam had replaced Brennan?
"Yea, well when I got here he wasn't new, DEWs actually kind of old. He was in retirement before but came out of it to take this deal." Evie explained as she shrugged her lab coat onto her shoulders, took her hair out from underneath and adjusted the turquoise beanie that was on her head.
"DEW?"
"That's what I call him. Use D, from Doctor and then his initials, E and W and you get DEW. Like do the dew?"
Jack laughed. He loved nicknames.
"So who are you? If you used to work here? And with the big temper tantrum over the lack of bugs in here I'm guessing you used to work with them."
"I'm Dr. Jack Hodgins. Entomologist, but I like to be formally called the Bug and Slime guy." she laughed as she walked back to the front of the room.
"Oh so you're a geologist to?"
"I can be, and I like ..." See the Light by Green Day started playing somewhere and Evie's bent down to struggle with taking her Samsung Flight out of her Doc Marten boot.
"Excuse me for a moment."
"Yea Skywalker?"
With the use of the movie character's name Jack's eyebrows shot sky high.
"I'm going to have to walk to him." she whined to the phone. "Fine." she started to walk away and then looked behind her, she bent her finger and brought a quick 'come here' finger movement before she unclipped her id badge. Hesitantly Jack followed looking around wondering if he would get attacked for doing so, when Evie scanned her badge she whispered to the guard who was watching Jack, "He's with me."
"I'm with her." he said while pointing to Evie while he passed the guard.
"Doc." she called out. Most of the interns turned to look at her. Dr. Williams kept his head down. "You guys aren't one yet." she returned the phone to her ear, "Yea they did it again. Doc Williams."
"You forgot the 'tor' at the end of Doctor again Dr. Collins." came the lightly peeved voice of Dr. Williams who was bent over a set of bones.
"And you forgot to call me Evie. Anyways Skywalker would like to speak with you," she looked down at his gloved hands that were delicately wiping over the newly arrived and extremely grimy bones of their newest victim, "And your gloves are kind of gross so I'll save you and my phone the trouble and put it on speaker." she pressed a button and 'Skywalker' or who Dr. Williams liked to call Agent Walker could be heard.
"Do you guys know how Miss Louise Blunt died yet?"
"No, I just got the bones only a few hours ago."
"But the buggies have told me that she has been deceased for a little under three weeks."
"Did you use the beetles?" Jack asked, Dr. Williams looked up with the new voice.
"Yea." Evie nodded enthusiastically.
"Dr. Hodgins I see you've meet Dr. Collins."
"Yes. Fellow Entomologist and bug lover." the joke made two or maybe three of the interns crowded around Dr. Williams stifle a laugh.
"Bug friend. I prefer to get down with someone in my own species." she said bluntly with a few of the male interns cheeks turning a bit rosy.
"Who's Hodgins?" Skywalker's voice asked.
"Oh, someone who used to work with Cam."
"Well I should meet this Hodgins." Skywalker said as he flipped a switch in his car and the signal turn sound started to go off in the background.
"You must be Skywalker." Jack said to the phone.
"Or Agent Walker which is what we professionals call him by." Dr. Williams piped in.
"Have you even seen the movies?" Evie turned to him, he was kind of, killing the fun mood.
"Yes. When they first came out. Now can we please be professional and get back to work."
"Very Clark." Jack remembered the behavior.
"Excuse me?" Dr. Williams asked a bit offended.
"Nothing inside joke with some old colleagues."
"Dr. Collins could we please not have Doctors like Dr. Hodgins who lack a Jeffersonian id on the evidence platform?"
"Of course we can Doc." Evie said in an english accent matched with a smart ass grin, which Dr. Williams returned with most of the same enthusiasm.
"Evie and Williams could we not but each others heads off in front of the interns. I'm sure most of them think that being anthropologists in the big, bad, world renowned Jeffersonian Institute that they'll have nice co-workers now."
"Oh, you make it sound so classy Skywalker."
"Well I gotta go now kiddies and Hodgins, but I'll swing by when I get some evidence."
"Bye."
"Yes Dr. Collins lets work on getting Agent Walker some evidence."
"I've got the sisterhood working on it, I think that you should have your interns working on your side of the evidence as well."
"Be nice you two." Cam called from the side of the platform on the lower floor a smile on her face despite her scientist fighting.
"Yes Mom." Evie called as she stepped off of the platform with a smile.
"Yes Dr. Saroyan." said Dr. Williams in a business-like tone, which Jack guessed he talked in alot.
"Cam oh Cam." he had to wait for the guard to swipe his id card.
"Hodgins. How are you?" he skipped down the stairs slightly.
"Pregnant." Hodgins rolled his eyes as he walked towards his wife and maybe boss.
"Well this part of the relationship is." Angelea said as the two released from the slightly more manly version of Cam and Angelea's earlier hug.
"So this is the crew eh?" he asked as he joined Cam and Angelea who were walking to the doors.
"Yea. This is it. And Pete. Well he likes it when Evie calls him Petey."
"Petey?" Jack asked, the name fit a dog, probably a schnauzer of some sort.
"High School Intern for the summer, he's on vacation right now. Usually I have him watch the lab when I'm gone."
"Why?" Angelea started to rub her stomach.
"You did see those two on the evidence platform?"
"Oh." The couple said in unison as the exited down the hall.
tell me what you think!
