Chapter 1 – Seemingly Perfect

Dr. Temperance Brennan was asleep on her bed next to her boyfriend, FBI Special Agent, Seeley Booth whose arm was around her waist as they lay against each other inside their bedroom. Both Bones and Booth's eyes had black cycles underneath, showing how difficult the past months had been for them, yet the baby monitor by Brennan's nightstand made all these months so much more worthy.

The silence of the room was sliced by the very familiar to the couple screams of their baby from the monitor, causing the two partners and lovers to jerk from their sleep, Brennan to catch the monitor in instinct and Booth to groan and rub his eyes.

'I'll go for her,'

'I'll go for the milk,'

The couple shot up and Brennan turned on the lights of the corridor as she rushed close to her child's bedroom which was located two doors from her and her boyfreind's, while Booth moved down to the first floor of their house in D.C. to make the milk. Brennan entered the room and let the door open as to illuminate the place along the small light they always had on for her. Brannan smiled brightly despite her sleepiness at her beautiful daughter.

'Sssh, sweetie, mommy is here,' Brennan whispered as she took in her hands her three month old daughter and kissed her cheek before she could suppress a yawn of exhaustion. Crystal blue eyes stared at crystal blue eyes as Brennan sat on a rocking chair she had for herself and Booth in the baby room. The baby didn't smell bad since Booth had changed her a few hours ago so she was hungry and a bit cranky and Brennan did the first trick she had performed before a baby and had worked, years ago.

'Look, Christine… flying falanges…' Brennan exclaimed sleepily as she waved her fingers before her little daughter's face, the baby giggled and stretched her own little falanges to touch her mom's. Brennan smiled and took her baby's hand in hers, kissing her little fingers as the two ladies waited for Christine's dad to bring the milk that would end yet another sleep break.

'Hey… Bones… woken up again?' Parker's blond, sleepy head showed up in the frame of the door and Brennan smiled at the fourteen year old boy who entered the room and moved close to his half-sister.

'Sorry for waking you up, we should have taken her to our bedroom but she needs to become independent and lose up the attachment she has to me because of the breastfeeding.' Brennan said seriously and Parker laughed, blushed and nodded.

'It's ok,' Parker said with a smile and Brennan remembered the day Parker had actually asked her to be Booth's girlfriend so they could move to a house with a pool, at that time the boy's request had been satisfied with Brennan's keys for her apartment's set of houses but now, five years later, Parker had a pool of his own in his father and Brennan's house. 'I had been woken up anyway for a glass of water,' Parker said and Brennan smiled.

'Your holidays with us should have been more relaxing…' Brennan pointed out as she knew that when her daughter cried, everyone was listening. Parker smiled and took a stuffed toy from the numerous Booth had bought for his daughter, the young boy waved it at Christine's face before he could make it nuzzle its nose to the baby's neck, causing the little girl to squeal in joy.

'I really don't mind, Bones… I prefer Christine's crying over Captain Fantastic's lectures about nothingness.' Parker said and Brennan only nodded her head as she didn't want to interfere in this, in the past years, Parker had grown a dislike about his mother's boyfriend and later on husband and the young boy preferred to be with his own father and Brennan more, when the news of Brennan being pregnant had reached his years, he was just more happy about the situation. Everyone was happy about it after all they had gotten through.

Almost five years ago, Bones and Booth were being separated from each other in that airport, with the promise of returning both. That was longest year in Brennan's life, it had been interesting yes, to be in Indonesia, to research all these amazing remains. But it had been difficult too, worrying over Booth, knowing she had sent him away because of her incapability to love him as she wanted or the thought of this incapability… After that year, when she returned, when she fell in his wounded from the war arms, she knew she was ready, she had realized it in Maluku, she was ready.

But Booth wasn't, he had done what he had promised her that night in D.C. when they had shared their third kiss, he had found someone else to love him, and what hurt Brennan most was that someone indeed loved him.

Booth had entered a war zone to get over Brennan, his Bones, and he had thought he had done it by finding compassion and care in Helena Johnson's eyes. They were a nice match, Parker had liked her, but she wasn't Her, she wasn't Bones. She wouldn't correct him whenever was needed, she wouldn't make smart comments, she wouldn't be as clueless at social communication, she would say thank you at a complement instead of "I know" or "I am aware of that", she was normal, when he and Bones weren't.

Brennan had felt like the biggest idiot alive with all those confusing feelings at the sight of Booth introducing to her his new girlfriend, she had felt like an idiot when she looked at his eyes and she could see the feelings for herself there, she had felt like an idiot when she could see the same emotions in her own eyes whenever she had looked in a mirror.

It hadn't taken long for Helena to see these things too, these emotions, after all, Booth had been talking about Bones from day one and it only needed a moment for them to look at each other and forget about everything. No death, no dead bodies, no distance and no religious or social differences would make them apart in the past, how could just one other woman achieve that?

Helena was soon dumping Booth, but not with fights and screams, just a serious conversation that concluded that Booth knew with whom he had to end up…

But things weren't easy, they were too afraid to do it, to take that step, they were feeling that if they made it, if they were together the whole world would fall apart, they didn't know it was just easy to fall into place.

Uncomfortable tensions, snapping at each other, being back to Sweet's armchairs for therapy, driving the young psychologist nuts with their seemingly oblivious reactions, solving ugly murders that made them realize every day that life was too short and they had already wasted too much time jumping around the subject made them both suffer for months ever since Booth and Helena's break up and these months ended with a night of raw passion and love.

It was after the solving of young Broderick Mason's murder, a young boy who had been abused and murdered by his insane teacher because the young boy hadn't accepted to be taken by his teacher and flew the country as the man was obsessed with the idea of a son.

Booth had remembered all those nights of abuse from his father, all the pain, and it hadn't been long after Hank Booth's death, that night, Brennan stood by him like they had done with each other in the past, that night, Booth learnt that his grandfather had kicked his father out of the house. And even if he expected to feel angry at his grandfather's action, he felt enormously relieved, happy, protected that Hank hadn't only saved him and Jared, he had also made sure for the boys' father not to return. And Hank had trusted none but Brennan for the secret, that clicked it all into place for that night, it meant everything to them.

That night of support and soothing words for Booth's wounded past had been sealed with their first lovemaking in the seven years ever since they had laid eyes on each other, their first mission, the year apart, their partnership for five years, another year apart and a few months of Booth and Helena being together had been needed for those two to end up together and that night was simple heaven with the two finally being joint and loved by each other.

And after that, with baby steps, Booth and Brennan started their relationship, that remained a secret for weeks, as they both wanted to make sure once again if this was the right thing to do. After an almost lethal for Brennan, mission, the two had proved to themselves that they could manage without emotion getting in the way so they had told Angela, who had practically screamed many octaves above her voice's normal volume, causing Hodgins to learn the news too as he was passing by Brennan's office by that time and then Booth told Cam as they were friends for so long.

Lastly, Sweets had learnt or actually figured out as he noticed that the pointed stares and endless looks were accompanied by small smiles and even some winks, causing him to gasp and point frantically at them, right before he could clasp his hands in a gesture Brennan had first adopted as to show the sexual activity between two people.

Things were going nice and slow for Brennan, she was feeling like the child that for the first time goes for a swim to the open sea, small steps further inside the ocean.

The pull at her leg by the unknown creature came a few months after when she threw up a mere inch by the dead and decomposed body of a male in his thirties that had been found in a cremator, the mix of the decomposed, dead and half-burnt flesh was enough for her previously strong stomach to rebel and she had vomited right between herself and Camille who had been more scared of Brennan vomiting than the vomit being close to her feet.

The tests had been ran and Angela was soon screaming again as the news were shared among friends and Booth's brother. Everyone had seemed happy apart Brennan herself who wasn't sure if this was according the plan… once again.

Yes she wanted children, she had even asked of Booth's semen in the past, but then the tumor had been before them, and the surgery, and those four days of Booth's coma, and then that strange year that concluded to their confesses of feelings, and then their separation… all these things had proven to Bones that people should be with each other before all those obstacles but bringing a child into such a complicated and dark world wasn't an easy thing.

Another rocky period had started and it had lasted some months, up to the first actual ultrasound. The moment Brennan looked at the black and white image of her child, learnt that she was a girl and she had Booth's hand clasped in hers, she had forgotten all about her fears and worries. She was there for her child, Booth was there for their child, and if two people with traumatic childhoods know something, this is how to keep their children from harm's way.

And that was what Brennan had been doing for the past months, her pregnancy and labor hadn't been an easy issue to deal with, but she had made it, she had became a mom, and after she had woken up, still tired and weak from the long labor, Booth had nodded and Brennan had forgiven her mother completely, sealing her forgiveness by naming their little girl Christine.

Now, Christine Angela Brennan Booth was one of the most beloved children in the Jeffersonian. Many times, her mom took her to the lab, away from the dead bodies of course but Brennan's office had been transformed to a small nursery in a corner so Christine's crib could be located along another set of baby monitors.

People would expect from someone as strict and cold scientist as Dr. Temperance Brennan to have a nanny for her young daughter but Bones wanted her child as much as she could have it with her. And lets say that Booth had just been too happy to have his daughter and girlfriend close by.

It sounded strange to most people, but the couple hadn't gotten married. Brennan didn't believe in such ceremony sealing anything as they were already parents of child together, however she was considering the possibility of the performance of that ritual as it meant a lot to Booth who even a Roman Catholic had achieved to have two kids from two different women who declined to get married to him for their own reasons.

'Baby… you're still there? Booth was asking as both he and his son were looking at her with similar faces of concern as she had been lost in her memories. Brennan finally snapped from her stupor and smiled slightly.

'Yes sorry, I got lost in a train of thoughts,' she said and both Booths straightened up and sighed in relief.

'We realized…' Booth said and ruffled his son's hair who smiled, patted his dad's arm, kissed Brennan on the cheek and blew air on his half-sister's stomach before he could say his goodnight and leave the baby room. 'Here's the milk,' Booth said and sat on the carpeted floor of the room, next to Brennan's legs and rested his head on her lap as he watched his little daughter enjoying her bottle. 'What were you thinking?' Booth asked gently and Brennan smiled as she glanced between him and her hungry daughter.

'That you have two children and no marriage in your CV,' Bones said and Booth looked at her exasperated.

'Hurray Hurray… what have I been telling you for the past months? Why you think I have proposed to you twice already? Temperance you really need to speed up your conclusions about the people around you…' Booth said and Brennan grinned at the sound of her actual name. Ever since the two got together, the nickname "Bones" was still her dominant title but soon words like "Baby", "Brennan" and even "Temperance" got in his lexicon and in a way, she liked it. Of course "Tempe" was still her father's favorite nickname, "Dr. B" was Hodgin's and "Sweetie" was Angela's but now Booth had taken two more names for her.

'Well I had been thinking… a wedding means nothing to me, I mean, for me it's a simple co-signed piece of paper, qualified by a priest of just one religion-'

'Don't start again with the Pope and the Catholics…' Booth interrupted her annoyed.

'Let me finish…' Brennan complained and went on. 'And lets not mention all the cases of fallen marriages we had with one of the spouses dead…' Brennan went on and Booth sighed exasperated. 'However, I think Angela would be very happy to organize our wedding… if this is still what you want…' Brennan was interrupted again but this time not from Booth's lips speaking words but kissing her own lips as she still held their daughter and her bottle in her hands. The kiss was tender and sweet and at the same time passionate and intense. When they broke the kiss their foreheads were touching and Booth kissed her lips once again.

The two remained like that for a few moments, Christine was done with her milk and she complained, signaling Brennan to change the position in her hug and put her on her shoulder and pat her back until she burps. When the baby was ready, the couple remained close and Brennan lulled her baby to sleep by singing an old song her own dad sang for her, "Keep on Trying" was a cheering song but from Temperance's lips, it sounded like an Angel's lullaby.

When the couple was finally done and little Christine was asleep in her mom's arms, they put her in her crib and left her bedroom as they had only a couple more hours until their actual morning wake up call.

'It will be bad for our sleep schedule if we sleep now and wake up in two hours…' Booth said as he nipped on his girlfriend's neck, Brennan moaned and nodded her head.

'Anthropologically speaking… you're correct…' Brennan whimpered as the couple closed the door of their bedroom and moved close to the bed between kisses, nips, moans and light bites.

Their lovemaking was sweet, passionate, full of need and love like always, at the end, Brennan was happily spread on Booth's body with her head on his chest and his hand caressing her slightly longer than in the past hair.

'I want to give you something,' Booth whispered and Brennan raised her head and looked at him, she was sure what that was. Booth reached for his nightstand and took out of the drawer the velvet box he had tried to give her in the past. He opened the little box and showed the content to her, she had never opened it before and he smiled when he saw her eyes widening slightly.

'It's beautiful,' Temperance whispered with her sophisticated voice and Booth smiled.

'Grandpa left it for me in his will, well not for me, for the woman I would choose, and I think he knew where it'd end up… it was my grandmother's…' Booth said and Brennan smiled and took the elegant ring from the box, she put it on the finger she had her own grandmother's ring on already and smiled at Booth, these rings symbolized a lot of things for them, and having them both on Brennan's finger meant even more things. Brennan and Booth smiled as they looked at the rings and then Brennan leaned closer and brushed her lips with Booth's tenderly.

'I love you, Booth, thank you,' Brennan whispered and Booth smiled against her lips.

'I love you too, baby,' he whispered back as their eyes remained locked.

They were interrupted however when the alarm clock was set off and Booth reached for it and turned off. They grinned tiredly at each other as they knew they had to take Parker to Rebecca and then take Christine to the Jeffersonian for another day in their work.

Another sound was heard and this time, Temperance rolled over Booth, reached for her own nightstand and gripped her mobile phone that was ringing.

Cam is Calling. Was written on the screen of the device.

'Good morning, Cam, that's an early phone call…' Brennan said with a grin as she looked at Booth who grinned and kissed the rings on her hand.

'Dr. Brennan? You and Booth need to come here as soon as possible… there is an emergency that concerns you and the children… it's about Grave Digger,' Cam's frightened voice caused Brennan's blood to freeze in her veins. She knew such thing couldn't actually happen but the feeling was just like that, her eyes betrayed her fear and Booth soon was frowning at the rapid change on Brennan's mood.

Something was really wrong, he was sure of it.
