Thanks for the reviews...hope i didn't keep you waiting for too long. This season 7 is amazingly intense. Defently made up for season 6 in my book. Anywho disclaimers alert and on to the story.
Booth paced up and down the corridor. He was a nervous wreck and it was all because of Broadsky. He was the reason that the woman he loved life was in jeopardy once again. Booth wanted to punch something but that would get him kicked out and that could not happen. He had to be the first one to know when Bones was out of surgery. He had to be the first one to see her. He had to say that he was sorry and he forgave her because he understood then what Bones knew all along.
The gang was with him, although they were sitting down watching him run a hole in the ground. They tried to get him to sit down as two hours turned into three. Angela got him to get checked out because of the shot stating that Bren didn't need to be worried about him when she came out of surgery. Like he thought it was just grazed. There were barely any stitches required.
A short man with gray hair came towards them and Booth stopped abruptly. "Family of Ms. Temperance Brennan", the doctor asked.
"Dr.", Booth corrected automatically. "And yeah where her family", he answered.
"Can I speak to you in person Mr. ", the doctor paused.
"Booth and you can speak freely", Booth gestured toward the group of people anxiously waiting the news.
"Dr. Brennan had a lot of scaring and it was touch and go for awhile. She pulled though but I'm sorry to say that she slipped into a coma", the doctor announced.
"A coma… how serve is this coma? If you doctors were really smart that would have happened", shouted Angela.
Booth inhaled sharply. "I thought it was a simple procedure. What went wrong", he asked through clenched teeth.
"There was a serve amount of blood lost and to be frank she might not pull through…let alone", the doctor paused.
"Let alone what", Booth asked.
"Doctor", Angela yelled interrupting. "My water just broke".
Hodgins turned to look at his wife hide eyed. He hurried up and started to panic. "Oh god, are you in pain", he asked. "I need to get you to a hospital", he yelled.
Despite the pain Angela smiled. "Honey, were already at the hospital", she teased.
Hodgins cooled down dramatically. "Right", he stated. He then turned around and screamed for a nurse.
The doctor made a move towards her but Ang held out a hand to stop him. "No", she panted. "You save my best friend, she promised not to miss this", she yelled. "So studly get in there and work that magic", she shouted as a nurse wheeled her away.
"Talk about the odds", Cam stated feeling left out now it was just her and Booth.
"Cam thanks for staying throughout all this. Me and Bones and now Angela really appreciates it", he sighed.
"Booth that what friends are for and I'll keep you posted on Angela...i should probably call Wendell too", she stated softly.
Booth turned back to the doctor. "Can I see her", he asked him.
The doctor led him to Brennan's room in silence. Booth was lost in thought. When the doctor left Booth alone with Bren he stood frozen in his spot. She was so pale and still. He was remembering her on that slab at the Jeffersonian. He hesitates as he took a step closer.
"Bones, we have to stop meeting like this", he jokes lamely moving her bangs out of the way. Nothing was his response. He breathed heavily listening to the steady beat that calmed his own.
He pulled a chair closer to her. "I'll be here when you wake up", he told her sitting down and reaching for her hand. "Which better be soon cuz Ange is in labor", he told her sternly. He sat there talking about anything and everything until he fell into a restless sleep.
Her eyes felt heavy. The last thing she remembered was that Booth was begging for her to hold on. Her head hurt but she had to get to Booth. She had to ask him what she had to hold on too. She felt something on her hand and noticed it was warm and familiar. She then heard this annoying beeping sound and realized she was in a hospital.
Very slowly she opened her eyes and waited for them to adjust to the darkness. She tried to move her arm but again something was holding it. That something was her partner's strong hand holding it. He must have fallen asleep holding her hand. She smiled at the thought and studied his sleeping face. He looked ten years younger fast asleep and it clicked. She shifted in the bed so she could see him better but of course her partner was alert and ready before he noticed that it was just her and smiled.
"Hey there stranger", he smiled.
She smiled. "Hey ya back".
They just stared into each other eyes. "I thought I lost you", Booth admitted.
"I thought I lost you too", she repeated. She was referring to the argument they had prior to.
"It's going to take more than that to get rid of me Temperance. I was a Ranger", he joked and she smiled.
"Good", she replied hoarsely. "Did we win", she asked.
Booth gave her a big Boothy smile. "Big time".
"Where's Ange", she asked and Booth laughed.
"She was wheeled away to have a baby, before I drifted of to sleep she was still in labor", he stated.
Bones moved to get up and was instantly dizzy.
"Bones, what are you doing. I'll go get a doctor. Just chill. I know how much you want to be there for Angela", he stated.
She laid back down and nodded. He turned to leave but stopped when he heard her. "Booth, don't keep me waiting", she called out.
He laughed. "I wouldn't dream of keeping the Dr. Brennan world famous anthropologist waiting. "
True to his word he came back with a doctor in less than five minutes. The doctor had asked for booth to step out and he finally did after he realized Bones didn't want him there. He was hurt but he tried to focus on what was important; the fact that she was alive. It took a little convincing and Bones belittling the doctors so she could get wheeled into Angela's room.
"Sweetie", she yelled. "I would hug you but I'm kinda busy at the moment. I've been in labor for almost twelve hours", she continued in labored breaths.
"Booth said that his imaginary friend must have wanted me to be here for you but that's improbably because child births are infrequent. Some can be an hour and others can take days", Bones stated messing the pained looked on both Booth's and Angel's face.
"Days", Angela shouted. She turned to Hodgins and squeezed his hand as another contraction came. "You are never touching me again", she yelled.
Hodgins gulped and Booth took it as his queue to leave and join Cam in the waiting room where he promptly fell asleep. Several hours later Michael V. Hodgins was born into the world.
Angela and Hodgins adored their new addition to the family. He was perfect. "Sweetie would you like to hold your god child", she asked Bren.
"I would like that very much", Bren stated.
Ange turned to Hodgins. "Honey can you bring Cam and Booth in here; I can't wait to show off our baby", she gushed.
Hodgins smiled at his wife's blissful demeanor and went to get the crew.
Booth came in with a really big bear. "Bones you look good with a baby in your arms", he observed wishfully thinking.
Maybe it was his imagination be swore he saw a hopeful expression on her face before she covered it up and gave the baby back to Angela.
Everyone sensed the tension in the room after that. "What's the handsome guy name", Cam asked trying to cut down the tension.
"Michael Vincent Hodgins", the couple said together laughing and smiling at their newborn.
Everyone smiled at the scene. "He's going to love that when he wakes up", Booth assured referring to their fallen squintern in a deep sleep.
"We'll never hear the end of it that's for sure", Cam agreed.
Two hours later Bones was wheeled back into her room. "I don't see why I need this. My feet are fine", she argued. "I can walk perfectly well", she stated.
Seeley sighed. "Humor me Bones", he said as they made it down the hall.
Bones scoffed. "Why would I do that? This is not funny", she fussed turning her head to look at him.
He looked down and smiled. "Oh bones, I've missed you", he admitted.
"That's not going to work. I am not sleeping in the hospital overnight Booth", she paused when she noticed it wasn't her room. "This is not even my room", she stated.
He proceeded to open the door and wheel her in. She gasped as she saw the figure in the bed. He had a bandage wrapped around his head and looked as if he was sleeping.
"When does the doctor presume he will wake up", she asked soberly. "Can I see his charts", she asked analyzing the body.
"Bones the doctor said his brain is healing up quite nicely and all because you're a doctor does not mean you can see his medical records", he explained tiredly. It seems like they had this type of conversation every time she had the urge to help someone. Which was quite often but he loved that about her. She had a lot of heart.
"A brain is a terrible thing to lose", she sighed defeated.
"Why don't you call his parents later and ask permission to review his files", he said trying to cheer her back up.
"You think they'll let me", she asked hopefully.
"They'll be insane not too", he assured. "Now I'll leave you two alone so you can saw a few words to him", he said and kissed her forehead.
"Booth don't go. Plus I don't think he'll hear me anyways", she stated.
Booth stood by the door and shook his head. "I'm a go hurry up those discharged papers and plus don't worry... I did", he smiled closing the door.
"I'm sorry Mr. Niguel Murrey ", she sighed. "I should have done something to prevent this. It seems like everyone I care for always ends up hurt".
"You need to get better but take as long as you need. Although the longer you stay in a coma the odds are slimmer to come out especially without brain damage. I feel silly talking to you. But I want you to be the first to know". She took a deep breath and continued, "That I'm pregnant and Booth's the father. "
