Angela saw Brennan taking her daughter, Christine, out of her car seat as she pulled into the diner parking lot. She parked her car next to Brennan's and turned around to Michael already trying to take his seatbelt off. He and Christine were very close to each other despite the fact Christine was almost a year younger than him.
"Slow down buddy!" Angela said to Michael, "Just let me get out of the car and I'll come around and unbuckle you!"
Michael smiled and patiently waited for his mother to come let him out to see his friend.
The four of them walked into the diner together and sat down in a booth.
"So sweetie, how's Booth?" Angela asked Brennan.
"Honestly Ange, I don't really know. Ever since that night he told me we shouldn't get married, he's been avoiding interaction. One might think it's due to the fact that he's feeling embarrassed by his withdrawal of the engagement, but I know Booth. Something else is up, and I just don't know what," Brennan replied. "But let's not let my problems interfere with out lunch. So, did you do it?"
Angela looked at her best friend and debated between lying to her and dodging the question. She decided with the latter. "Do what? I really don't know what you're talking about, Bren. Christine is getting so big! Is she talking a lot?"
Brennan leaned over the table getting closer to Angela. "Oh don't do this Angela! Although I might not possess the most finely tuned social skills, I know when you're trying to avoid telling me something, so spill!"
"Well, Bren, I haven't even talked to Hodgins yet. I should talk to him before I talk to you, right?"
Brennan sat back in her seat. "Ange, you told me you were pregnant with Michael before you told Hodgins, so this shouldn't be any different. In fact, we were in this very diner in this booth. Just tell me, are you pregnant or not?"
"I'm going to step outside and call him right now, then I'll come back to talk to you, okay?"
"Fine, but hurry up! I'm getting impatient!"
Angela dug through her purse for her phone and stepped outside, leaving Brennan to entertain the babies.
