A/N: Thanks for all the Reviews.
Chapter Five: Home Again
Bones was sitting on the couch, Andy on her lap, eyes glued to the door waiting for Booth to return with Parker. The little boy had given her quite the scare, Booth's text telling her he'd found Parker at the playground and was on his way home had calmed her some, but worry had been replaced with anger when Booth explained Parker had left because he felt left out and jealous of little Andy.
The door swung open and Bones jumped up just in time to catch the little boy who threw himself at her. "You worried me so much Parker" she scolded slightly, Parker lowered his head in guilty shame, he hadn't meant to upset Bones, he loved her and didn't want her to be sad.
"I'm sorry Bones, really I am, I didn't mean to make you sad" he spoke quickly "Do you hate me?" he asked, worried that she really might "No Parker, I could never hate you, I love you far too much so get that silly notion out of your head" she said, passing Andy to Booth to get ready for bed, Brennan bent down pulling the little boy into a hug.
"I love you too Bones" he said kissing her on the cheek, she pulled back from the embrace, her face turned stern "Don't you ever wonder off and worry me like that again" she scolded before turning him to the side and her maternal instincts taking over she landed three firm swats on the poor boy's already sore bottom SMACK, SMACK, SMACK the tears reappeared on Parker's face as his hands flew back to protect his very sore backside.
"I'm sorry Bones, I won't do it again" he sobbed, Temperance felt a little guilty, she gave him a quick squeeze "Good, come on you must be hungry, let's get you some dinner" and with that she little the very sorry little boy into the small kitchen to feed him some left over pizza and a slice of pie.
Parker was home and safe, everything was good for now and back to normal, but the nausea she'd been experiencing for the past few weeks told her things were going to get a lot more complicated.
A/N: there, Parker's home and there is only one more chapter to go, I am planning on writing a sequel with an older Andy. Well Review and let me know what you think?
