Hey guys! I'm glad a lot of you liked the story! Here is Chapter 2!


5:30 rolls around and it's time to go home. Booth stops at the Jeffersonian and picks up Brennan while everyone packs up for the day. As soon as Booth and Brennan get back to Booth's apartment Booth passes out on the couch. Brennan went into the kitchen and started to cook dinner. It was her turn too cook tonight and she was craving mac and cheese. As she prepared the meal she looked over to the couch and watched him sleep soundly. The case they caught today hit both of them pretty hard. Two adolescent human remains were found in an abandon house in Maryland. There was a boy roughly 8 years old and an infant girl roughly six months old. Throughout today they thought about Parker and their unborn child. Brennan tried to sleep off the horrible day at 4 but she couldn't get comfortable. She was happy that Booth is getting some rest. He needed it. As soon as dinner was ready Brennan took two bowls full of mac and cheese and went over to the couch. She placed the bowls down on the coffee table and gently stroking his head in an effort of soothly waking him up. He opens his eyes and was greeted by her gentle smile and piercing blue eyes. He smiled softly and brought her in for a hug. She always felt safe in his arms. She buried her head in the crook of his neck and inhaled his sent. His anxiety about this case melted away in their embrace. She always made him feel safe. When they let go she places a kiss on his forehead and ushers him to start eating. It was a silent dinner but not a bad one. They both feel comfortable in each others presence that talking didn't always have to happen. As they were eating Brennan remembered back to that mysterious man that came into the lab today. She jumped up in realization and went over to her purse and pulled out the card. She walked back to the couch to a confused Booth staring at her. She laughed and sat back down. Booth started eating again when she asked him a question

"Booth, Who is Joe?" He stopped chewing and looked at her slowly. He swallowed and spoke,

"Bones, where did you hear that name?" He asked slowly. She sensed the tension and a hint of anger on his voice. She looked at his confused,

"A man came by today and asked to ask you to call him. He gave me his card for you." She handed him the card. He looked at it and became furious. He pulled out his cell and dialed the number. moments later someone answered the phone,

"Listen you son of a bitch. Don't you ever contact me again. I do not want to talk to you ever. Go to hell." He said. He hung up and threw his phone. Brennan jumped up and went to him. She walked up to him and put her hands on his arms in an effort to calm him down. She whispered to him softly and after a couple of minutes he was calm. He wrapped his hands around her waist. He looked at her and spoke,

"Bones, if he ever tries to contact you tell him to leave and never come back." Brennan nodded and said okay. She pulled him into an embrace and held on for a while. She released and guided him to the couch. They continued eating. Brennan thought of the man; why did Booth hate him so much? Who do you know in Booth's life that he hates that much. She skimmed through the list in her mind and came across one person that he hates that much. It all made sense, the man said they weren't on the best of terms for a long time. All of his features resembled Booth. Booth never talked about his father. The only thing she knew about his father was the world series in 1980. Booth hated talking about his father so much and avoided him at any cost. Brennan didn't even know the mans name. When they were finished eating she cleaned up the tiny mess and did the dishes. When she was done she rejoined Booth on the couch for some relaxation. The both cuddled while Booth's head laid on her stomach; hearing the heartbeat of his unborn child and the woman he loves helped him calm down from the fiasco that just unfolded. She played with his hair and watched him. She knew she had to ask who is Joe. She had no other choice,

"Booth, is Joe your father?" He sighed and spoke

"How did you figure it out?" He asked.

"Booth, the only person that you have so much anger towards is your father plus your facial features are the same." She said. He laughed at her honesty. He started rubbing her stomach lightly and spoke,

"I guess your wondering why I didn't tell you much about him." She stopped playing with his hair and spoke,

"I get it Booth. You don't like talking about your father. I knew you would tell me about him when you were ready." He loved her so much for respecting his privacy.

"Bones, just promise me you will tell him to leave if he ever contacts you again." He asked she nodded and spoke,

"Of course I will Booth." She said. He smiled and kissed her stomach. Brennan read as Booth talked to the baby. It always made him happy to talk to the baby and she loved it when he did. They both decided to knock out early. Today was an emotional day and they both needed their rest. The both got ready for bed and fell asleep in each others arms. They both drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
