Brennan was sitting in her office working on her newest book when her phone rang. Without looking she reached over and picked it up.
“Brennan.”
“Temperance, it’s Lisa.”
“Oh, hi. I’m actually working on my 下一个 book now.”
“That’s great, but that’s not why I was calling.”
“Ok, why did 你 call?”
“I have a 问题 for you. I got an 电子邮箱 from a young woman named River Morrigan asking if it was possible to get in contact with you. I gave her a call and it turns out she is wanting to make some kind of documentary about your work with the FBI.”
“Really?”
“Yes, what do 你 think?”
Just then Brennan’s cell began to ring.
“Lisa, can 你 hold on for just a second?”
“Sure.”
Brennan picked up her cell phone and opened it.
“Brennan.”
“Bones, did 你 know that someone wants to make a video about us?” Booth asked excitedly.
“Actually, my Publicist, Lisa Cowley, is holding on my office phone right now. She just told me.”
“So, what do 你 think?”
“I don’t know Booth, I need 更多 information.”
“Right.”
“Look, can I call 你 back after I’m done talking to Lisa?”
“No need, I’m almost at the lab anyway. I’m bringing lunch. I’ll see 你 in a few.”
“Ok.” 说 Brennan, closing the cell phone and picking the headset of her office line back up.
“Sorry Lisa, that was my partner.”
“No problem, so what do 你 think?”
“I really need 更多 information. If I could see some of her 前一个 work it might help.”
“I’m sure she would be glad to 显示 你 some things. I don’t think she’s expecting an answer right away though. She just wanted to meet with 你 and your partner to discuss the possibility of filming.”
“Well, in that case I don’t see why we couldn’t meet with her. Let me talk to Booth about this and I’ll give 你 a call later.”
“Sounds good, and I hope your 写作 is going well.”
“Thank you, goodbye.”
“Bye.”
About five 分钟 later Booth came through her door with his arms full of Thai food. Brennan got up quickly to help him and took one of the bags, setting it on the coffee 表 in front of her couch. Booth placed the rest of the 食物 along with the drinks beside it and sat down beside her.
“So, what did your publicist say?” asked Booth, handing Brennan a drink and opening a container.
“I was happy to find out that this woman just wants to meet to talk about the prospect of doing this. I thought maybe she had already made up her mind and was going to try and force us to do it.” 说 Brennan, taking a bite of noodles.
“Oh, that’s not what I got from Cullen. Then again, I didn’t exactly hear much after he said, “She wants to make a film with 你 and Dr. Brennan.”, because I kind of spaced out.”
“Well, what did 你 get?”
“I remember that he 说 that Director Landau had actually contacted him about all of this. Apparently he knows her and has done work for the FBI before. I’m clear on all of the details though.”
“Well, I told Lisa that I would call her back and give her our decision about meeting with this woman. I suggest we meet with her and look at some of her other work before we make any decisions.”
“That sounds reasonable, and stop bogarting the noodles.” Booth said, grabbing them away from her.
“Hey! I can’t help it if they’re the only thing that sound good right now.” she said, taking them back.
“Wait, did 你 take the test?” asked Booth, dropping his chopsticks into the container of chicken he was holding.
“I took it this morning, it was positive.” she said, taking another bite of noodles.
“Bones! Why didn’t 你 call me 或者 something?” he asked, nearly dropping the chicken before setting it back on the table.
“You probably would have been asleep, and I knew that I was going to see 你 in a few hours anyway. I don’t know why you’re so surprised, this is what we were trying for.”
“I’m not surprised, well a little that it happened so fast, but no, I’m just really happy…excited!”
“To be one hundred percent sure, I need to see a doctor. I made an appointment for 下一个 week if 你 want to come.”
“Are 你 kidding? I told you, I want to be there for everything.”
“Everything?”
“Well, I don’t know. Let’s just see how it goes first.”
“Booth, I’m perfectly comfortable with 你 being in the room during a vaginal exam.”
“Bones, just stop talking about that…stuff, please.”
“Fine, but it’s only logical that there is going to be a lot of talk about…that stuff.”
“Yes, but, just give me some time ok.”
“Ok.”
After a silent 分钟 Booth started to smile and then leaned forward. He reached out his hand and placed it on Brennan’s stomach and started to talk.
“Hello baby, how are 你 today?”
Brennan just froze and stared at the 最佳, 返回页首 of his head curiously.
“Booth, what are 你 doing?”
“I’m talking to the baby.”
“It’s technically an embryo and it can’t hear you, it doesn’t have ears yet.”
“Bones, stop taking all the fun out it!”
“Sorry. 你 do know that 你 won’t be able to feel anything for many weeks and it’s impossible for the embryo to feel you, right?”
“Bones.” Booth groaned as he took his hand away and leaned back.
“Sorry, sorry. I’m going to finish these noodles and then I’ll call Lisa back and get this lady’s number.”
“Sounds good.” 说 Booth, pouting and eating his chicken.
Brennan watched him and thought about what had just taken place. She really wasn’t adverse to Booth’s wanting to talk to the embryo. It was that when he touched her like that, so intimately, she couldn’t help the 图片 that filled her mind. Ones of the night they made this embryo and of the 前一个 tries the 月 before. She had always felt something when he touched her, making her 心 race and stomach jump. But now it was so much more, sometimes she would just hold her breath until he let go. She didn’t know what was happening.
Brennan wasn’t the only one that felt that way though, Booth too, had his feelings. Just looking at her was enough to make his 心 race and the corners of his mouth twinge upwards. When he touched her, even just the slightest skim of his hand, his head swirled. When she would walk past him and he caught her scent, it was like he was back in 床, 床上 with her. He loved her in every way imaginable, but he couldn’t tell her, he didn’t want to drive her away. As hard it was now, it would be so much harder to not see her every day.
“Brennan.”
“Temperance, it’s Lisa.”
“Oh, hi. I’m actually working on my 下一个 book now.”
“That’s great, but that’s not why I was calling.”
“Ok, why did 你 call?”
