Thanks for the reviews.
I don't own Bones.
ooooooooooooooooooooo
Brennan called Special Agent Shaw the next day to let her know that Booth would not be in that day. He didn't feel well. Agent Shaw said she understood and said she would pass it on to the higher ups. Brennan then called Cam and told her she wasn't coming in either. Once she finished her calls, she went back to bed. Booth had a very restless night and had finally gone to sleep after 5 a.m. Brennan had got up every time Booth got up from bed so she was very sleepy. It was a little before noon, when she felt Booth get up from bed. She opened her eyes and saw him putting his suit pants on.
Shaking her head, Brennan said, "No, Booth. I called the office and told them you won't be in today."
Looking at Brennan, Booth said, "I have to go in Bones, I have things to do."
"No, Booth, I don't feel well and I want you to stay home with me today. Please, it's almost noon so half the day is gone anyways. I don't want to be home alone today."
Concerned, Booth said, "You don't feel well? Do you want me to call the doctor?"
Smiling and shaking her head, Brennan said, "No, I just don't feel well and I don't want to be home by myself. Please don't go into work."
Nodding his head, Booth stopped dressing and walked over to the bed, sitting next to Brennan. "Are you sure you just don't want me to go to work because of Jared? I'm fine."
Shaking her head, "No, I want you stay for me because I need you to."
"Alright." Booth said with a sad smile. Taking his pants back off, he put on a pair of running shorts and left the bedroom.
After awhile, Booth came back into the bedroom with a tray. He had made some toast for both of them and had poured a couple of glasses of orange juice. Putting the tray on his side of the bed, Booth sat down on the edge of the bed and said, "You can't skip meals, Bones. You know your doctor told you to stop doing that. Here's some toast and juice. That's probably why you don't feel well, I bet you skipped breakfast this morning."
Smiling sadly, Brennan said, "You're right Booth. That's probably what it is."
Sitting in bed, Brennan and Booth quietly ate their toast, both of them thinking about Jared. Booth wondered how they were going to tell Pops. He had to be told sooner than later.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
After they had finished breakfast, Brennan and Booth went back to bed for the sleep they both needed. Booth tossed a little bit before sleep took him. Brennan waited until she knew Booth was asleep before she got out of bed and went into the living room, closing the bedroom door behind her.
Brennan sat on the couch and called Cam. She found out from Cam that Jared's body had arrived at the Jeffersonian at around noon. Cam was going to look over the body in an hour or so. Cam didn't tell Brennan; but, she actually needed to calm herself before she could do the autopsy. Cam knew that she could arrange for another ME to come and do the job; but, she needed to be the one who did the autopsy. She didn't trust anyone else to do it. If there was anything to be found on the body that helped provide clues to catch the killer, then she needed to find them. Cam told Brennan that Hodgins was already working on the clothes and boots that Jared had been wearing when he died. After he was done with those, he would start looking at the soil and sugar cane that the coroner had sent with the body. All of the pictures of the crime scene and of Jared's body, that had been sent by the coroner, had been turned over to Angela.
Thanking Cam, Brennan hung up the phone and went back to bed. She wasn't sure she could sleep; but, she didn't want Booth to be alone. He said he was fine; but, she knew he couldn't be. Booth had told her more than once that he didn't like Jared; but, he did love him. That never made sense to Brennan. Booth had tried to explain it to her, a few times; but, it still sounded like psychological blah blah blah to her. She just took his word that he loved Jared and that was good enough for her.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo
