Thank you for reading my story. Hope you are enjoying it. This chapter is a ton shorter than my other ones... some cuss words in this chapter

Walking up onto the platform, you could tell that everyone was working twenty times harder than usuall because of it's connection to the Jeffersonian. Everyone seemed tense, and they were.

"Hey bones." I said, and leaned in for a kiss, but she pushed me back. I knew it was a stupid desicion. I was even on edge. I couldn't get those photos out of my mind. I also didn't want to leave her side very much. It was even hard for me to drop Christine off at daycare. I didn't want my family to get hurt. I loved them so very much.

"Not right now Booth, I'm working." she had said as she ran her microscope over some of the bones, looking for minor fractures that may have not shown up on the xrays. she was tense, and I almost forgot about the way she was acting before the case started.

"See anything?" I asked, leaning over to take a peek at the bones.

"Let me work, and then I'll tell you." she had replied tartly. I looked at her, and started to think about what it would be like without her. Without seeing her everyday, without her smile and laugh that would warm my heart everyday. I was sure that without her, My heart would freeze and break into pecies.

"Hey, is Cam around?" I had asked.

"In her office" Bones muttered while she examined a particular bone.

Cam was lying on the couch looking at a of Michelle, thinking about her daughter. Her head turned to me as I walked in.

"Hey Booth you okay?" she asked, sitting up now.

"I'm fine, and I should be the one asking you that right now." I sat down on the couch next to her.

"Booth, I'm fine Michelle will be fine, and we'll get her out of this. It's Bones we should all be worried about. The pictures were of her and her family. He probably took Michelle to get Brennan. You should keep an eye on Bones. I'll be fine." Cam said.

"You sure?" I asked, sorta feeling that something was up, but maybe she just wanted some time alone to think about Michelle.

"I'm sure. Now go out there and find that son of a bitch and kill him. And bring Michelle back with you." she said. A smile found its way to her face, the first one since the case started.

"Okay, you want anything?" I asked, as I got up and walked out the door.

"A large coffee with one sugar, please" she said, throwing her head back on the couch. I could tell she was tired, and needed a kick.

Then I walked out of there. It was the stupidest thing i had done up to that point. Next thing I know, I hear a gun fire and the sound of breaking glass.

will be posting next chapter later today, had to get this one out of the way first
