'' So how was the doctor's appointment.''? Asked Angela
'' It was...It was emotional.'' I replied
'' Really''
'' Yeah, soon as I saw the baby on the screen I litually just burst into tears.''
'' Oh sweetie! Where they happy tears or sad tears''? Angela asked me
'' They were bit of both, Ang. I'd just still can't believe that I am having a baby I mean Zack and I always use condoms whenever we have sex.'' I stated
'' Like Dr. Riley said Ems, condoms do attend to split when you're having sex'' Mom said
'' Yeah and condoms aren't awalys that affected.'' Angela stated and then she said, '' How's Zack taking all of this''?
'' He's actually really happy.''
'' Seriously''?
'' Seriously Ang, he is very happy that I'm having his baby and how do I know this because when I gave him a picture of the baby he burst into tears.''
'' Really''
'' Yep''
'' So when are you going to start telling people that you're pregnant'' Mom asked me.
'' Not yet, I told Zack that I want to wait couple of weeks so until Zack and I both decided to start telling people I want you and mom to keep this pregnancy to yourselfs.'' I told them.
'' You got it.'' Mom said
I looked at Angela and then she says. '' Yeah, you got it.'' Angela says and then she said. '' Do you know what you're going to have yet''? Angela asked me
'' Not yet, but Dr. Riley said that we be able to find out in couple of weeks.''
'' Do you want to find out''? Mom asked me
'' To be honest with you Mom, no I don't. I know that Zack wants to find out what we're having but I don't. I rather wait until she or he arrives.'' I answered
'' So, this Dr. Riley person that you're seeing is it a she or a he''? Angela asked
'' She's a she, Ang. Her full name is Dr. Adrienne Riley.''
'' Is she really nice''?
'' She is really nice'' I told Angela
'' That's good, at least you've got a nice doctor. That's the main thing.''
'' Yeah.'' I responded
'' What would you and Zack would like to have? Boy or girl'' Mom asked me
'' I'm not sure what Zack would like to have but I would like to have a girl.'' I answered Mom question
'' Really''
'' Yeah.'' I stated
'' If the baby is a girl what would you call her''?
'' Ummmmmm....I've always liked the name Maisy.'' I stated
'' Maisy.''? Questioned Angela
'' Yeah, it's simple and it's a beautiful name.''
'' I agree, Ems. Maisy is a beautiful name.'' Mom agreed.
'' What if the baby's a boy? What would you call him''? Angela asked
'' Matthew.''
'' Seriously.''?
'' What is wrong with Matthew.''? I asked her and Mom
'' Nothing is wrong with the name, Ems. Matthew is a beautiful name and so is Maisy.'' Mom said.
'' Thank you.'' I thanked Mom and then she gives Angela a look
'' Yeah, I agree with you're Mom, Ems. Matthew and Maisy are both beautiful names.'' Angela said
'' Hmm hmm.''

Angela, Mom and I were still in the bone room and all three of us were still standing on opposite sides of the lit up table. The skeleton was still out on the table and Mom still has the same skull in her hand and she's still gluing the pieces to it.
'' So I spent the night at Todd's.'' Angela said changing the subject and then she says. '' You remember Todd right? The bass player with the big hands, big nimble hands?''
'' Angela I'm trying to piece together a skull'' Mom told her
'' You're doing a great job.'' Angela said and then she carries on talking. '' So I wake up this morning and he's sitting there right? No clothes on just his bass. Singing to me in this low, low voice, it was creepy.''
'' I bet it was.''
'' Angela, is this conversation really appropriate here''?
'' Sorry but I'm into live people. Anyway Todd has a friend.'' Angela said
'' I thought you said he was creepy.'' I stated
'' Todd, not the friend.'' Angela said
Zack enters the bone room and then he says, '' Good news.''
'' I hope this is work related.'' Mom stated
'' The Anthropology Journal is publishing our piece on the evolution of the Coronals suture.''
'' That's awesome.''
'' For the interruption.''
Mom places the skull on the table and then Zack holds his fist up to her and then he says, '' You're supposed to bump my fist with yours''
'' Why''? Mom asked
'' I'm told it's a widely acknowledge gesture of mutual success.'' Zack said
'' I love it when you two impersonate earthlings.'' Angela stated
Zack leaves mom side and then he comes over to mine and then he says. '' So, how's the baby doing''? Zack asked me and then he puts his hand onto my stomach.
'' The baby's fine, Zack.'' I told him
'' I know I'm just checking.'' Zack stated
'' Awe, you guys are so cute.'' Angela said
'' I agree'' Mom agreed and then she says. '' You guys would make a great couple. It's a shame that you guys aren't together.''
Zack moves his hand away from my stomach and then Hodgins enters the bone room. He was carrying a red box with a blue bow on it.
'' What's that you got there, Hodgins''?
Hodgins turns to Mom and then he says, '' Okay now, this is weird. There's some guy in the lounge who asked me to give you this.''
Hodgins hands Mom the box and then I said. '' That is very weird.'' I stated
'' Is he alive because this is an excellent start to a relationship.'' Angela said
Mom opens up the box and pulls out a shoe and looks at it and then Hodgins says. '' I didn't put a mirror underneath his nose or anything. He said that you'd know who he was when you opened it.''
Mom hands the box to Zack and walks off
'' Okay. A guy who gets her to stop working? This I have to see.'' Angela stated
'' Me too.''
Angela, Hodgins, Zack and I went to follow Mom. Mom enters the main lab area and there is a guy up in the balcony looking down at her who is known Michael
'' You left it at my place.'' Michael said
Mom looks up to speak to him and then she said. '' Three years ago.''
'' First time I've been to Washington thought that I should return it in person.''
'' Why didn't you tell me that you were coming.''
'' What if you didn't take my call? You're a big important author now.''
'' You could come down here you know.''
'' You could come up.''
'' Half-way.''
'' As always.'' Michael said and then he comes all the way down and meet her. Hodgins, Zack, Angela and I were standing a little distance behind her.
'' Who's that''? I wondered
'' This is like watching cars mate.''
'' It's got to be Michael Stire, her forensic Anthropology professor from North Western. They were...''
'' Very, very close''? Hodgins said
'' Dr Brennan is my forensic Anthropology professor. Does that mean.''?
'' No.'' Hodgins, Angela and I both said
And with that point Booth walks into the lab with some guys hauling a beat up refrigerater on a dolly and then Booth calls my mom '' Hey Bones'' Booth called my mom and then he turns to the guys and then he said. '' Okay, put it here, easy. Bones! I got a present for ya straight out of an illegal ravine found in a dump in Fairfax.'' Booth said and then he continues to talk. '' You see our forensic people confirmed it was human matter so rather then open it myself and risk being trashed by you for contaminating the evidence; I decided to bring the whole refrigerator to you.''
'' All we need is a toaster oven.'' Hodgins stated
Booth clears his throat and then he calls my mom again. '' Bones.'' Booth called my mom again and then he nods towards the fridge.
Mom comes over with the guy and then she looks at the outside of the fridge and sniffs and then Mom says. '' Bodies going to be mostly decomposed.''
'' Which is my cue to leave.''
'' Me too.'' I said and then Angela and I both leave and we both walked towards her office .
'' I still can't believe it you know.''
'' Believe what''? I asked
'' That you're pregnant, Ems. I still can't believe that you are pregnant.'' Angela stated
'' I know I can't believe it either and you know what else that I can't believe...''
'' What''?
'' That I'm already half way through the Trimester. Dr. Riley says that I am four months pregnant.''
'' What? Seriously''
'' Yeah, I mean I don't even look like i'm four months pregnant though and it feels like that I'm not even pregnant.''
'' What makes you think that''? Angela asked me
'' Because of my stomach, Ang. It's so tiny.''
'' Some girls are different though, sweetie.'' Angela said as she and I both entered her office.
'' So listen, Ang. You know how we was talking about baby names before in the bone room.''
'' Yeah.'' Angela answered
'' Well, I really like those names Maisy and Matthew. I've always liked them and I was wondering if you could help me to think some middle names for them.'' I said and then I continued to speak, '' Well I only need you're help for Matthew middle names as I've already got Maisy middle names already.''
'' Sure, I can help you with that. What are you thinking for Maisy''?
'' Well, I was sort of thinking having May and Temperance for Maisy's middle names''
'' Maisy May Temperance Brennan Addy. I like it, it's got a ring to it.'' Angela stated and then she asked. '' What about Matthew''?
'' That's the thing though, Ang, I don't know what to have for Matthew's middle name. That's why I am asking you.''
'' Okay, how about I write down a list of middle names and then once I am done we can both decided to choose which ones that are right for Matthew.''
'' Okay.'' I stated and then I leave Angela's office.
