Chapter 6- Okay, Here's the News
Booth and Parker walk into the house, "Tempe you back yet?" Booth called out, but gets no reply.
"How did we beat her back?" Parker asked.
"Well she was talking about marrying Sid earlier today."
Parker turned to face his dad slowly, "Please tell me that you are joking, because that is really creeping me out."
Booth laughed, "Yeah it is a joke. So I was thinking, I know your mom took your cell phone away a few months back, she never told me why, but Tempe and I thought that you should have one. So I went and got you one this afternoon."
"Are you serious? This is awesome; just so you know; mom took my phone away because Drew told her that I was having phone sex with Candi. Funny, I wasn't even having sex with her!"
Just then Bones walked in the door with two huge bags of food.
"Hey guys, Parker would you mind running back down to my car and getting the other bag of food?"
"There is more food?" Booth asked, as his eyes got big.
"Hey talk to Sid, I walked in and told him it was the three of us, and this is what he gave me."
"Okay I'll be right back," Parker said as he slipped his shoes back on walked out the door.
"So do we just what to say 'Hey guess what your not going to have one sibling but a brother AND a sister?' Or should we say something else?" Bones said quickly, a little nervous.
"Well… we can do it like that, I hadn't really thought about it. Have you?"
"No, I have no clue how to tell him, I don't know if we should just drop it."
"Drop what?" Parker said, neither of them had noticed that he had walked back into the room.
"Uh, nothing." They both said together, a little to quickly.
Parker raised his eyebrows and has a half smile on his face. "Do you guys that that I am stupid? I can tell that you are both lying, and doing a very bad job of it. So what's going on?"
"Well, uh, we have some news…" Bones said slowly.
"Good or bad?" Parker asked.
"Well, we think it's good." Booth said, "We went to the doctor today, and we got our first sonogram, and we are having twins."
Parker did not react at first; it took a minute for all of this to sink in. Then his face broke into a huge Booth charm smile. "Really? So I'll have two little siblings?"
"Yeah, an little brother and a little sister." Bones said smiling. Parker walked over and gave Bones a hug.
"This is awesome! I though you weren't going to know the sex of the baby."
"Well, we decided that we wanted to know, two of the same or one of both." Booth said.
"We have something we want to ask you too." Bones said getting nervous all over again,
"Shoot," Parker said taking a bite of food out of the container 'What could they ask me that is related to what they are talking about, dad already knows that I'm not having sex.'
"Okay so I was thinking about godparents for the twins," Bones said looking at her hands, Parker could tell that she is really nervous, "And we were wondering if you would want to be one of the twins godfathers?' Bones was talking so soft that Parker could barely hear her.
"Did you just ask if I wanted to be a godfather to one of the twins? Because if you did I would love to, but if you didn't I have no clue what you said." Parker said with a smile.
"Really? You want to?" Bones said, tears in her eyes.
"Yeah why wouldn't I? But I do have one question, okay, two questions, did you really think of this, this was your idea not dad's?"
"Yeah, it was my idea, I thought of the godparents, he was thinking of names." She said with a smile.
"Really? Dad you didn't come up whit this? This just has you written all over it." Parker said amazed. "Way to go Tempe!"
"What's your second question?" Booth asked.
"Which twin will I be a godfather of?"
"Well, that's the thing, why don't we start eating though, because I am starving, and Seeley and I need to catch up with you!" Bones said as she started to take the rest of food out of the bags. "Okay so we kind of thought that you could choose, not saying that one of them is better than the other, but, okay this is coming out wrong."
Parker and Booth were both laughing, "I think you are doing great hon." Booth said still laughing. They all sat down in the living room to eat.
"Don't make fun of me!" She said as she took a bite of food, and drips some on her chin.
"Come here," Booth said, and she just shook her head.
"You are being mean to me." Booth scooted over next to her and rubed the sauce off her chin.
"Oh, didn't realize that I had stuff on my chin." She said quietly.
"Okay so what are the names that you said dad had thought of?"
"Well I have two for each. Jameson or Sean and Aubrey or Kylee."
"I like them. How are you going to decide?"
"Good question." Bones said after she swallowed a big bite. "I almost wish we were having more kids, I really like the four names that we have, but we only have two kids."
"Are you kidding me? You didn't want kids for the longest time and now you want four? Pregnant women are impossible!" Booth said with a smile and a kiss to Bones cheek. Parker and Bones both laughed.
"I said almost! So Parker, what are your thoughts?"
"I don't know, it's not really my decision." Parker said.
"Well, we would like your input, and you are going to be one of their godfathers." Bones mumbles with food in her mouth.
"Who else did you think of for godparents?"
"Um, you and Ange, Caroline and Sweets." Booth replied. "So what is your opinion on the names? Which ones do you like?"
"Well, I like Jameson for a boy, Sean is too average. I don't know about the girls names though, I really like them both. I think I like Aubrey a little more though." Parker said thoughtfully.
"I think that I like Aubrey a little more too." Booth said.
"Okay so enough about the twins, how was school today Parker, anything new?"
"He already told you didn't he?!" Parker said while he looked at his father.
"No, we haven't really had a chance to talk, so what happened?" Bones asked with a knowing smile.
"Yeah sure he didn't tell you," Parker rolled his eyes. "Well I asked Aderyn to prom, and she said yes, and now I have to come up with something for us to do on a date, possible a triple date with Trey, Brett, Ema and Becca. Oh are you still willing to go dress shopping with her Tempe?"
"Of course! Well as long as Ange can come with me. I don't know how good I would be at that alone." Bones said a little worried.
"Yeah I told her all about Ange, she is excited, even if it is just a little bit."
"So you have a date with her?" Booth asked, shoveling noodles into his mouth.
"Yeah, we have to figure stuff out first. Like what we want to do and all that."
"Do you have any ideas?"
"Yeah I have a few," Parker explained the ideas that he had. They spent the rest of the night talking, and catching up on everything. They spent another hour talking about the twins. When Parker walked up to his room at 11:30 he realized that he forgot to call Aderyn.
