Chapter 10-That's our little girl

"We need a doctor!" Booth yelled as soon as they entered through the sliding doors of the hospital.

"Booth I'm not dying I'm just having a baby," she said grabbing her stomach as another contraction hit and she leaned against the wall for support.

"But you're in pain. Someone help us!" He yelled again as a nurse came forward to help her into a wheelchair.

"Alright we just need you to fill out some paperwork as we get her settled into a room," The nurse said handing him a clipboard.

After finishing what seemed like a mountain of paperwork he was led to a room where they had put Bones. "Hey sweetie how you feeling?"

"I'm in labour how do you think I'm feeling."

'And so it begins,' he thought to himself as he stepped up beside her and took her hand in his.

"You did this to me, this is all your fault!" She screamed in pain as the worst contraction yet hit her body.

"Breathe sweetie, breathe." He said as she tightened the grip on his hand.

"Why don't you breathe," she said as he tried to wrench his hand free.

The doctor came in just then, "Alright Temperance let's see how far along you are?"

"Maybe she should have some drugs," Booth told her.

"No I don't want any I want this to be natural, women have been doing this for years."

"Are you sure Bones?"

"Yes"

Booth winced as she nearly crushed his hand in her fierce grasp as another contraction hit her body. "You ready for the drugs yet?" he asked nursing his sore hand.

"No."

"Maybe I should have your share, I think you just broke my hand in that death grip."

"Booth don't be such a baby, I don't see you giving birth at the moment and I think my pain outranks yours."

"Alright let's check your progress," the doctor said coming back in the room. "Looks like you're ready to push." Booth let her grab his hand once again as she sat up a little to begin pushing, "You're doing great Bones."

After what seemed like forever she heard Booth say, "One more big push Bones I can see her head and she's got hair."

Minutes later she heard a small wail fill the room and the doctor announce 'it's a girl,' before she was being placed into her waiting arms. Staring down at the little bundle that was trying to open its eyes she felt something she had never felt before. "Hi, I'm you're mommy."

"She's beautiful, Bones she looks just like you." He said reaching down to touch her downy head. He noticed Bones had tears in her eyes and he knew. She had already fallen for their little girl, it was inevitable and he knew the feeling times two.

"What are we going to name her? She needs a name?" Booth said smiling at his two girls.

"I was thinking maybe we could name her after my mom? If you don't want to we can pick something else."

"No I think that's a great idea Christine Angela Brennan-Booth, I like it."

They had already agreed on the middle name months before in honour of their friend and now their little girl had the perfect name, a name that meant something to them. "Are you up for some visitors?" he asked tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Sure."

"Alright come in," He said as Parker, Angela, Hodgins, and Cam all stepped through the door. "You're dad said he would come by later."

"Bones is that my little sister," Parker asked as he raced over and climbed on the bed beside her.

"Careful buddy."

"Yes Parker this is your little sister, Christine."

"Can I hold her?"

"Yes but you have to be careful with her alright come over here in the chair," Booth told him as he brought the baby over and carefully nestled her in Parker's arms. "See put your hand here under her head."

"She's so little."

"You were that little once too bud."

"Oh sweetie she's adorable," Angela said as she walked over and kissed her friends cheek handing her a gift for the baby.

"Isn't she," Booth said proud of his little girl.

"She's gonna be a heartbreaker for sure," Hodgins said clapping him on the back.

"What if our son marries you're daughter, wouldn't that be something?" Angela said taking her turn to hold the baby.

"No I don't even want to think about her dating one day," Booth said shaking his head.

"You know it's going to have to happen eventually Booth," Bones said with a laugh.

"Yes but right now she's just an innocent little baby and that's all I want to think about right now."
