When they had reached Brennan's apartment Booth parked the car and just sat there for a while wondering what to do. "Would you like to come inside?" Brennan asked. Her voice laced was laced with sleep and Booth knew she was just being polite.

Wanting to make sure she got inside ok, Booth accepted her offer and walked her to her apartment. Once they were inside Brennan went to the kitchen to make some coffee for the two of them. When she came out she found Booth stretched out on her couch like he owned the place. This made her smile, most of the men in her life where never around long enough to be comfortable enough to take up the entire couch. She sat the coffee down on the table and sat on the edge of the couch near Booth's stomach. She was about to say something when the sound of his cell phone interrupted.

"Aren't you going to answer it Booth?" Brennan asked when the phone just kept ringing.

"Nope." Booth opened his eyes and saw his partner sitting, well, as much as she could, on the couch with him. He sat up making room for her to sit with him. She sat next to him and handed him his coffee. They sat in the quiet drinking there coffee when Brennan's home phone started to ring. She ignored it and let the machine get it.

"Temperance, I know you're there. Pick up the phone, we need to talk." The voice on the other end was one she knew too well. Brennan felt Booth tense up next to her, he knew that voice too, and he wanted to strangle that voice. Neither of them made a move to the phone as the voice continued. "I'm sorry. I overreacted and I shouldn't have said what I said. I want to help with this baby. This kid is part mine and I feel like I should be part of his or her life. Umm..I guess just give me a call when you get this. I love you."

Brennan was frozen to the couch. She couldn't move, she couldn't blink, and it felt like she couldn't even breathe. Bryce wanted back in the game. Two months ago he told her he wanted nothing to do with her and now he wanted her back. Booth was just as shocked as Brennan; he turned to look at his partner and noticed that she wasn't breathing. "Bones, you need to breathe."

At the sound of Booth's voice Brennan was shaken out of her trance. Sucking in a huge breath she turned to Booth and said, "What am I going to do?"

It took a while for Booth to respond, and when he did he told her, "I could see what I can do about getting a restraining order against him. I could, as you so lovingly put it once, 'get federal on his ass'."

Brennan smiled a little at his words as it brought back the memory of him dropping everything he was doing to come help Angela. Not many people would do that for a friend, Booth was one of a kind. "I think I should call him back, just to tell him that I want no further contact with him." Brennan was about to reach for the phone when Booth stopped her.

"Bones, wait, there is something I've been trying to tell you for the past two months and every time I start you tell me to stop." Brennan was about to stop him, yet again, but he continued. "See, there you go again. I need to do this; it's the type of guy I am. Back is Sweets' office, I didn't mean to yell at you like that. I don't know where it came from," liar, "and I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I know this baby thing is hard on you and I should have been more sensitive about it. It's just that you brushed it off like having a baby was no big deal and that got me upset."

"I understand Booth, you're the people person and I shouldn't have said that having this baby wasn't going to be a big thing. I now know that he or she is going to change my life. I don't know if I'm ready for this though." Brennan replied, playing with the end of her shirt. Booth had noticed she only did that when she was unsure about something. "I have this baby and Bryce is being weird and I just don't know what to do. I'm not used to not knowing."

"Hey," Booth said, lifting her chin with his finger to face him, "we are all here to help. Like I said before, when Parker came I didn't have a clue what I was doing. Hell, I STILL don't know what I'm doing. All I know is, when this kid comes they are going to have the best mom in the world." Brennan put her face into Booth's neck and mumbled a 'thanks Booth'. Booth turned his head and, without thinking, placed a kiss on her hair and wrapped his arms around her.

It was a while before Booth realized that Brennan was asleep. He picked her up and carried her to her room. Once he put her on the bed he took her shoes, socks and chucky necklace off and tucked her into bed. She mumbled something he didn't understand and said, "Goodnight Bones."

Booth walked into the living room and looked at his phone. One missed call from Rebecca. Checking the message he thought Wonder what she wanted. "Hi daddy!" he smiled when he heard his son's voice, "Mom said that if it was ok with you I could spend this weekend with you and Dr. Bones. Oh, and my team won our soccer game. I scored two goals! Mom says I need to get off the phone, call her when you get a chance. I love you daddy. Bye." The message ended and Booth was so happy his ex-girlfriend was going to let him have his son this weekend. One more call to make then I can go to sleep. Booth got out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hey Charlie, sorry to call you so late, I need a favor…" Booth gave Charlie all the information he would need to get the restraining order on Bryce.

The next morning Booth woke up to the sound of someone in the bathroom. His first thought was who the hell is in my bathroom? It was when he looked around and noticed that he was, in fact, still at Brennan's apartment. Realizing that is was Brennan in the bathroom he rushed to see if she was ok. "Bones, are you ok?"

"Booth! What are you doing here?" Brennan was surprised to see her partner standing in her bathroom doorway in nothing but his undershirt and boxers. "Where are your clothes?"

Booth looked down and saw what he was wearing. Way to go Booth. Now she's going to think you're some weird pervert or something. "I fell asleep on your couch last night and I guess I was uncomfortable. You never answered my question. Are you ok?" Brennan was sitting on the edge of her tub near the toilet with her head in her hands.

"I'm fine Booth, its just morning sickness. Why did you sleep on the couch, you know that you have a bad back. I have a guest room, you could have slept there." It was so like Brennan to yell at him about sleeping on a couch when she was throwing up.

"Bones, I'm fine." He went over and sat next to his partner on her tub. "I have some good news. I called Charlie last night and he is working on getting you that restraining order against Bryce."

Brennan didn't respond but rested her head on Booth's shoulder. They sat like that for a good five minutes before Brennan stated that she needed to get dressed for work. She exited the bathroom and left Booth sitting on the edge of the tub. Sitting in Brennan's bathroom in made him realize that this is where he really wanted to be. Well, not literally sitting in a bathroom, but helping her through all the pains of the next nine months. He sat there for a bit longer and then got up to go put his clothes on.

The drive to the Jeffersonian wasn't awkward, but no one said a word. Brennan said a quick 'thanks' to Booth as she left the car and entered the building. They didn't have a case at the moment so Brennan was going to LIMBO to get started on the bones there. "Good Morning Doctor Brennan!" Brennan didn't need to look up to know what intern she had this week. Daisy was always so peppy in the morning and it bothered almost everybody, including Brennan. She waved at Daisy and went to her office to put her stuff down.

"Hey Sweetie." Angela said, walking into her best friend's office. "How are you this morning?"Before Brennan could answer she dashed off to the bathroom. Damn morning sickness. "Bren, are you ok?"

"I'm fine Ange. This morning sickness is, well, sickening." Brennan splashed some water on her face before returning to her office. "I have my first ultrasound today."

Angela stopped what she was doing and looked at Brennan. "Sweetie that's fantastic! Are you going by yourself? Is Booth going to take you? Please don't tell me the sleaze ball is going?"

Brennan was taken by surprise with all of these questions. "Ange, calm down. No, I'm not going by myself, I don't know if Booth is taking me, and no, Bryce is not going to be there. I was actually wondering if you would take me?" Brennan looked at her best friend and couldn't quite gage her reaction. "If you don't want to I can go by myself, it's not a problem Angela."

"Are you serious! You want me to go with you! Of course I will!" Angela was so excited she couldn't contain the squeal that left her mouth. A squeal so loud, apparently, that it made half of the lab run to Brennan's office to see what was going on.

"I heard screaming. Everything ok?" Cam asked, wondering what was going on in her lab.

"Everything is fine Cam. I have a question though. I have an ultrasound appointment today and I was wondering if it was OK if Angela took me?" It seemed weird to ask Cam permission to go to a doctors appointment, but it felt like it needed to be done.

"I don't see why not. We have no case today, and Ms. Wick can always start on LIMBO without you." Cam wasn't about to tell Brennan that she couldn't check on her unborn child, there was no why in hell she was going to get caught in an emotional war with Dr. Brennan.

"Thank you Cam." Brennan was about to tell her when her appointment was, when her phone rang. "Brennan…Hi Booth….I can't have lunch with you, I have a doctors appoint…no, everything is fine….Angela is takin…Booth..." Brennan rolled her eyes, "Booth! Everything is fine, I promise….I'm just going in for my first ultrasound….yes, I understand this is a big deal…fine, you can come too…10:30…Bye Booth." She hung up the phone and looked at the pathologist and the artist standing in her office. "Booth insisted that he be there. He is picking me up at 9:45 so I can be there by 10:30. I still want you there Angela." She added the last part when she saw her friend looked almost disappointed that she couldn't go. Angela's face lit up at those words and said that she would be ready when Booth got here.
