56. Argument
The four Booth children were used to the bickering of their parents, however upon returning to the house after an afternoon spent at the park they were greeted by the shouts of Booth and Brennan, clearly mid-argument.
"Why are Mommy and Daddy fighting?"
"I don't know, Addie." Parker mumbled, holding Christine and Henry back as he listened.
He led his siblings into the backyard, settling Addison down, leaving the three playing on the swing hanging from the tree holding their treehouse, making them promise they wouldn't climb the ladder until he was back.
Returning inside he found the house silent. Keeping his attention focused on the noises of his siblings outside he stepped into the home office, immediately covering his eyes.
"Guys, oh my god!" He shrieked, missing the way Booth and Brennan fell apart, him making an attempt to cover her body, donned only in a pair of panties as her feet reconnected with the floor.
"Parker!?"
"How did you go from arguing to sex in less than a minute?!"
"Where are the kids?" Booth questioned, pulling his t-shirt over Brennan's head.
"Outside."
"Were they behaved?"
"Bones, now is really not the time to ask that question!"
"Why?"
"Because we're half naked!"
"We're significantly more dressed than the last time Parker walked in on us."
"Okay, I'm gunna go. I'm taking the kids out for ice-cream, you two can come or whatever— and I totally just realised how badly I worded that, okay I'm just going, we'll be back in an hour."
Upon stepping back outside Christine, Henry and Addison immediately ran to him.
"Are Mommy and Daddy still fighting?" Henry questioned, peering up at his brother.
"No, buddy, Mommy and Daddy are definitely not fighting anymore. Now, who wants ice-cream?"
