A/N: These next few Parker stories take place when he's about 17...so maybe 2 years in the future.
Booth and Brennan waited at the end of a long hallway for the passengers from the London flight. Finally they saw an attractive young couple walking quickly toward them. Parker and his girlfriend had finally arrived.
Parker threw down his backpack and stepped into his father's hug, wiping away something that looked suspiciously like a tear. "Hi, Dad. Hi, Temperance."
"It's good to see you, Parker." Booth was wiping away tears also. "Would you introduce us to your friend?"
"Yeah." Parker blushed a little. "Dad, Temperance...this is my girlfriend Meredith Chenowith. Meredith...my dad, Seeley Booth and my stepmom, Dr. Temperance Brennan."
The petite dark haired girl shyly stepped forward. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Booth. Parker's told me so much about your work with the FBI. And it's an honor to meet you, Dr. Brennan. I'm quite a fan…" Meredith hesitated and turned toward Parker.
"Meredith would like it if you'd sign a book for her, Temperance."
Brennan noticed that Parker was giving Meredith the same loving look she had often received from Booth. Like father, like son… "Of course, Meredith. Now I'm the one who's honored."
Meredith smiled and giggled. "Oh, thank you so very much." Meredith took Parker's hand in hers and gave him a kiss.
"Meredith….not in front of my parents!"
Brennan and Booth exchanged small smiles. It was strange to see Parker with a girlfriend, but they were obviously very much in love. Meredith was going to stay a week with them and Parker was going to take her for some sightseeing in the DC area. Brennan hoped they would be able to take their eyes off each other long enough to see the sights.
Booth smiled. "We'd better go get your bags. Christine is really excited to see you. Let's not keep her waiting!"
