This fic is set in the future. Brennan's the foster mom for two children; a boy of five and a girl of 14. Brennan's foster daughter and Parker secretly join forces to help the partners became more. Brennan and Booth take a step towards them and keep it secretly to themselves at first. Let me know if there's interest. Will update my other fics too…soon.

Disclaimer: Bones belongs to Fox.

Brennan was seated on her bed with her back resting against the headboard and her laptop on her lap. She was working on the final chapter of her latest book. Her eyes left the screen when she heard her bedroom door crack open followed by the sound of little footsteps approaching her bed.

"Hey." Brennan watched as the small boy climbed on the bed and settled next to her.

"Hi, Mommy." The little boy gave her a kiss on the cheek before going under the covers, resting his head on her hip. "What are you doing?" He asked, hugging her right thigh.

"Finishing the last chapter for my book." Brennan answered, running her right hand through his short brown hair.

"I'll keep you company." Brennan smiled because even as the boy said those words, his light brown eyes were closing. The boy was fast asleep by the time Brennan typed up the last paragraph for her book. Saving her work to reread later, Brennan closed her laptop and put it in the top drawer of her nightstand. She settled under the covers and turned on her side. As she stared at the little boy Brennan thought about all that's changed for her in the last years.

Three years ago the partners worked a case of a mother who was murdered by her boyfriend. She'd left an 11 year old girl, Tracey, and a two year old boy, Tommy. The kids were going to be put into the system and Brennan stepped in and took them in. It was supposed to be temporary, but the kids would have been split after leaving Brennan's care. Brennan decided to keep the kids. She knew what it would most likely be like for the girl. She'd been there, done that and Brennan didn't want Tracey to go through that. Knowing that her life would change drastically by keeping the kids, Brennan still went full force on it. Her life had changed, but Brennan didn't regret her decision.

"Mommy, Mommy." Tommy patted Brennan's cheek. "Mommy, can I wake up?"

"You are awake." Brennan mumbled as she cracked one eye open. There was a time in Brennan's life when she shared her bed with tall, muscular men. Now her bed is shared, on most nights, with a five year old boy and Brennan didn't mind it at all. The boy giggled at Brennan's words and asked her what they were having for breakfast.

"The Diner?" Brennan asked, knowing that the boy loved going to the diner for breakfast. The boy's face lit up and he nodded with a huge smile on his face. "Go wake your sister." The boy climbed over Brennan, kicking her head by accident. "Umph." Brennan let out as she rubbed the spot the boy had kicked.

"Wake up!" Tommy jumped on his sister's bed.

"No, it's Saturday morning." The girl sleepily mumbled as she buried her head under her pillow.

"Okay, but we're going to the Diner." The boy taunted as he hopped off the bed. Tracey's head snapped up, knowing that she was beat. The diner was her weakness.

B&B

Brennan, Tommy and Tracey were seated on the table the partners usually sat at. Tommy was seated next to Brennan and Tracey was seated across from her. They'd just gotten their food when Tommy spotted a familiar face.

"Daddy!" The boy stood on his chair so that Booth could see him. Booth and Parker were placing their food order and Booth smiled at hearing the boy's voice. The boy thought that Booth was daddy since he was always with mommy.

"Hello, Toms." Booth said as he and Parker approached the table. Brennan was telling the boy to sit down when Booth scooped him up. The boy placed a syrupy kiss on Booth's cheek and Booth's smile was wide as he returned the kiss.

"Sit with us." Tommy invited and Brennan nodded. Brennan pushed her chair back and Booth moved past her to sit on Tommy's chair. They both felt the tingle in their bodies as their legs touched for the briefest of moments.

"Hi, Bones. Hi, Tracey." Booth greeted as he sat with Tommy sitting on his lap. Brennan returned the greeting as she took out a wet wipe from her purse. Tracey returned Booth's greeting before she turned to Parker.

"Hey." Parker and Tracey greeted each other as Parker took the chair next to hers. They shared a knowing smile as they watched Brennan wipe Booth's cheek, followed by Tommy's mouth.

As they ate their food a someone spotted Brennan.

"Tempe?" The man asked, finding it a bit shocking that Brennan and Booth were having breakfast with their kids.

"David, hi." Brennan and the man shook hands for a brief moment.

"It was good seeing you." David said before heading out of the diner. He felt awkward for interrupting the family moment and decided to not stick around.

"Mommy, who is that?" Tommy asked once the man was out of sight, not liking that another man was talking to Mommy.

"That's one of Bones' ex boyfriends." Booth teased, poking Brennan's side playfully. Tommy made an 'eww' face as Brennan slapped Booth's hand away.

"You shouldn't talk to other men." Tommy stated. Parker and Tracey elbowed each other, knowing this was going to be interesting.

"Why not?" Brennan asked.

"Because Daddy doesn't like it." Brennan shot Booth a glare and Booth was quick to raise his hands in defense.

"I didn't tell him to say that." That was Booth's defense. Brennan returned to her food without further comment, but Booth knew she did have something to say. Parker and Tracey followed Brennan's example and returned to their food. It wouldn't help if they burst out laughing at that moment.

After eating, they all walked out of the diner together. Booth was carrying Tommy and the boy was chatting away about his previous day, saying he'd gotten blue for the day. Blue meant 'excellent', green meant 'good', yellow meant 'improvement was needed' and red meant 'didn't do the work'. As they continued to walk Brennan told Booth to put Tommy down, the child could walk. Tommy hugged Booth's neck tighter and shook his head no. He liked being carried by daddy. When they reached Brennan's car, Tommy asked the partners if they were going to kiss.

"Not like that." Tommy shook his head once the partners kissed on the cheek. "On the lips." Parker and Tracey shared another smile, doing a discrete fist bump. "Aunty Angela and Uncle Jack kiss on the lips." The boy stated. Booth and Brennan stared at each other for a few seconds before Brennan leaned forward. Booth thought she was going to kiss him on the lips when he felt her hand on his left cheek. Brennan kissed him near the lips, the position of her hand made Tommy believe they'd kissed on the lips. It hadn't been Brennan's intention to trick the boy.

"Parker and I are going to the park. Do you want to come too?" Booth spoke after the near the lips kiss, still wishing it had been on the lips.

"Yeah!" Tommy answered excitedly.

"Tracey?" Brennan turned to face the girl.

"Sure." Tracey answered, knowing that it would be fun especially since Parker would be there too. She wouldn't be bored.

B&B

"Parker loved this place when he was younger." Booth told Tommy as he walked them to the carousel.

"Awww." Tracey teased and Parker blushed.

"It's true." Brennan added.

"Ah, Bones." Parker whined, hating that the partners were putting him on the spot.

"What?" Brennan sent Parker a look that said she didn't understand why he was embarrassed. Tracey laughed softly; she got that same look often. Brennan was great, but she could put someone on the spot.

"Are you riding with us?" Tommy asked Brennan, tugging her hand to join them.

"Don't worry about us. We'll be seated on the bench." Parker and Tracey pointed at a nearby bench and made their way over to sit on it.

"So, your dad likes my mom." Parker nodded.

"And your mom likes my dad." Tracey nodded.

"We've turned un-cool, Bones." Booth told her as they stood on either side of the horse Tommy was seated on.

"I don't know what that means." Booth smiled at Brennan's line. Yes, she's learned many things from caring for the two children. She's done a wonderful job and she's been a good mother, but she was still a bit clueless on some things.

"Oh, Bones." Booth gave her a smile and a head shake. He leaned across the horse and kissed her cheek.

"Seems like all they need is a little push." Tracey commented when the two teens saw the kiss on the cheek.

B&B

"I'll get something of Parker's." Booth told Brennan as he opened his front door. Tommy ran around after his ride and ended up very muddy. It was late afternoon and hunger had struck them all. Booth suggested that his place was closer and Brennan could give Tommy a bath as they waited for the pizza delivery.

Brennan made her way to Booth's bathroom with Tommy as Booth went to Parker's room, searching from something that would fit Tommy. Tracey and Parker went straight to the living room.

"Tommy!" Brennan gave the boy a look when he splashed water out of the tub, soaking her front completely. Tommy apologized as he played with Booth's rubber ducky.

"I found these." Booth entered the bathroom, holding up shorts and a tee that used to be Parker's and would fit Tommy just right. Brennan turned to face him and Booth stood still, eyeing the way her wet clothes clung to her body. "Uhm…" He shook his head and cleared his throat. "You should get out of those wet clothes. You can borrow something to wear. I'll finish up here." He gave her his charm smile and Brennan returned it as she walked past him. Booth stared after her before helping Tommy out of the tub.

Tracey was on her way to the bathroom to see if Brennan needed any help when she saw Brennan exit Booth's bedroom, wearing loose FBI sweats and t-shirt.

"What happened to your clothes?" Tracey was interested to know, especially since it was obvious Brennan knew her way around Booth's place. Booth was over to Brennan's often, but they weren't over to Booth's often. Brennan showed her the wet clothes and Tracey nodded, needing no further explanation.

"All set." Booth and Tommy walked out of the bathroom.

"Let's order the pizza!" Tommy said excitedly as he called Brennan and Tracey to follow.

Parker and Tracey watched as Booth and Tommy helped Brennan with the salad she was making to accompany their pizza. It was obvious to that the two partners are meant to be together and were convinced that all they needed was a little help.

I'd like to know if there's interest in more. Reviews are a great way for that.

Did anyone catch what's interesting with the names?
