"Booth….wait…." Brennan hesitated before entering the Founding Fathers.
"What's wrong?" Booth asked, smiling. He'd been looking forward to this moment for days.
She shuddered slightly. "I'm quite nervous."
"You're just excited. This is a big deal…." Booth took a deep breath. "Come on….let's go." He winked at her. "You're the one who needs to start wearing maternity clothes, remember?"
Angela, Hodgins, Cam and Sweets sat at a table waiting for Booth and Brennan, trying to figure out what was going on.
"Booth was quite mysterious", Cam said, drinking her beer. "I bet they got married over the weekend."
Angela shook her head. "No way...it'll be years before he gets Brennan to agree to that. They're just moving in together. There they are…."
After ordering a round of drinks, Booth cleared his throat. "We have an announcement." He smiled lovingly at Brennan. "Bones has made me the happiest man on Earth…."
"Totally called it." Cam was pleased with herself.
Brennan blushed as her hands fluttered over her abdomen. Angela gasped, watching Brennan closely. "No….."
"Booth and I have entered into an exclusive monogamous relationship, and in six months we will become a family with the arrival of our child."
"Sweetie...how could you keep this a secret from me? I should've known….I'm so happy for you!"
"You've been preoccupied with caring for Michael-Vincent, Angela. Booth and I decided to keep this secret between us for a while." Brennan smiled at Booth, pleased that they were able to surprise their friends.
Hodgins and Sweets both shook Booth's hand vigorously, congratulating him on his impending fatherhood, while Cam and Angela hugged Brennan. Everyone talked at once about the happy news.
Booth watched Bones happily discussing the pregnancy with their friends and grinned. He knew without a doubt he truly was the happiest man on Earth.
