AN: I don't own Bones. Thanks for all your support, Enjoy!


CHAPTER 3: Rebecca's Rage

BOOTH'S POV-

"Oh my God, Rebecca is gonna kill me" I cry out loud.

Bones looks over at me "Booth she wouldn't technically kill you, that is homicide" she replies whilst placing her hand on my arm in an act of trying to calm me down.

Parker walks over smiling cheekily "If we are snowed in it means we can't go anywhere right?" he asks mischievously.

I nod catching the gist immediately "Yes buddy if the weather doesn't clear up you'll get a Christmas with me and Bones" I say hugging my blonde son tightly.

Brennan looks at us "So at least you'll enjoy a Christmas with your son if you don't die" she laughs.

Parker and I both look at each other and shrug, Bones may be genius but her sense of humour was just awful.

I held my mobile to my ear. I had to ring Rebecca, Parker's mom and tell her what had happened with the snowstorm. The dial tones stops and I hear my ex's voice through the phone

"Hello, who's speaking" she asks.

I clear my throat "Seeley Booth" I respond.

"Oh Seeley I want my son to come over right now"

I feel uneasy "Well there's a slight issue, look out your window right now at the snow storm, I can't get my car out the garage so Parker will have to stay here"

I hear anger bubbling on the other end of the phone line "Parker is my son and you have no official custody of him, I want him over at my house now!"

"No can do"

I hear a sigh "Well let's just say the gambler in you got lucky this time Seeley, you get Parker for Christmas but as soon as the weather clears I want him at my house, do you hear me?"

I nod "Fine Rebecca, do you want talk to Parker I can put him on the phone?"

"Yes thank you Seeley," she responds as I head into the living room to grab Parker.


PARKER'S POV-

"Hey mom how are you going?" I say into the receiver. Dad had just given me the phone so I could speak with mom.

"Oh Parker is everything going okay at your father and that awful partner of his' house?" she asks.

I feel annoyed. How could my mom call Bones awful, she was practically a better mom to me then my real mom was and Bones didn't just leave my dad. "Everything is going great mom, I have got so many presents and Bones is the nicest person," I tell her.

I hear my mom sigh "Oh Parker I can't believe that you like the Temperance woman so much" she groans.

I smile "Mom I love Bones and Christine and Sweets" I tell her.

"Who's Sweets did your father and Temperance have another child that I didn't know about?" she asks.

I roll my eyes and I can see my dad and Bones smiling at me from the other side of the room. Christine was playing farm barn with Sweets who was mooing like a psycho cow.

"Mom, Sweets is one of dad's work colleagues who is staying over until he finds an apartment" I reply.

"Okay Parker fine…" she begins "Oh and one last thing, how is your father and that Temperance woman?" she asks.

Geez she is so nosey. "Fine he really loves her mom…" I reply.

I hear my mom make a disapproving sound into the receiver "Oh yeah he's probably just using her" she laughs.

I roll my eyes yet again. What did mom have against dad?

"Well I'll see you soon then" I say into the phone.

"Bye Parker" my mom replies before hanging up.


I turn around to face dad and Bones who were standing behind me and talking to Sweets.

"I told her what was happening, dad" I tell my father.

He nods "That's good Parker but she can be jealous though at times" he replies.

I shrug but Sweets seems to have an understanding, he turns to face dad "Booth in relationships where the parents aren't together there is usually a lot of competitive nature, trying to win the child's love" he begins.

Booth looks annoyed "I don't care about you're shrinky nonsense, I'm not competing with her, I just want Parker over more" he tells Sweets.

He shrugs "I'm not good in that field but I suppose you could ask Caroline?" he responds.

Dad shrugs and turns to face Bones. They were obviously discussing the snow. I turn around and run over to Christine who was playing with her presents on the ground.


"Christine watcha doing?" I ask my little two-year half sister. She seems to be trying to make the soft Minecraft Pig eat the little plastic cow from Sweets playset.

"Piggie's hungry!" she giggles as she tries to make the soft piggie eat my arm "He likes to eat yummy Parker" she laughs.

I shake my head; did she really do this to Sweets when I was over at mom's house? I would never know. Soon enough Christine and I were absorbed in our game of Creeper (my soft toy creeper) invades the Sunnydale Farm and Steve and his pet pig Bacon have to come in and save Sunnydale before it goes out of business and causes a worldwide egg shortage.

"Ha, Ha Bacon you are going to be bacon soon enough" I cry impersonating the Creeper.

Christine makes a face "Gee Parker I may be two but I can still tell when someone says a really silly joke" she laughs.

I make a face and make the Creeper attack Christine. We were on the floor in a fit crazy giggles when Sweets plops down on the floor beside me.

"What you guys doing?" he asks.

I tell him the story about Sunnyside Farm and the Creeper invasion and Sweets gets the picture soon enough and he excitedly grabs Bacon

"Oink…Steve I have an idea" he makes the pig cry.

I move Steve "Yeah Bacon what is it?" I ask.


The game continues until Bones walks over to us a smile on her face; this wasn't one of her good news smiles it was a bad news smile like she was going to drop a big bombshell, Oh No!

Brennan turns to us still smiling.

"Parker, Sweets, Christine I am getting some breakfast ready, all we have is a vegetarian tofu and broccoli breakfast slice" she tells us.

I share a horrified glance with Sweets and Christine. Bones was an awesome step mom; I'm not doubting that but being a vegetarian means that she has some very peculiar meals choices.

Brennan makes a face at us "I'm sorry everyone the slice is fresh I got Booth to make it yesterday morning but no one ate it except for me" she tells us "I'll just go grab it"

Sweets looks at me "I don't want to eat it as much as you Parker, now I'm seriously regretting breaking up with Daisy" he sighs.

I smile at him "Hey Sweets it's not that bad let's just fake it" I tell him.

He nods sadly "Some times Brennan acts like my mom" he laughs.

I give him a look "I can really relate to that"

About five minutes later Brennan returns with three plates with one slice of the foul looking slice on them.

She smiles "This is very good for you" she begins "Anthropologically speaking eating and living a vegetarian lifestyle can help improve the state of the world around you…" she begins.

I can tell all three of us tune out. She eventually finishes speaking and looks at us "Come on everyone eat up" she begins. We all look at each other and stuff the slice into our mouths. She walks off satisfied and we quickly spit out all the food on a plate.


AN: Hope you liked Chapter 3. Chapter 4 will be up soon and it will be called "Big brothers stick up for their little sisters". I'll be updating Too Late soon and I will be releasing a new Sweets story. Ideas for that are welcome.
