It was the eve of Valentines Day, Booth and Bones was stuck in Las Vegas due to the weather conditions. They each had dates that they had to cancel so they called their dates and canceled and told them the situation that was at hand.
"Hello."
"Michael hi."
"Hey Tempe."
"Michael I have to cancel tomorrow night I won't be back in time to make the dinner."
"Why?"
"I'm stuck in Las Vegas because of a storm and won't be back until late Sunday." she explained and happened to glance over at Booth as he was also canceling his date with Tessa. She was so distracted that she didn't hear Michael calling her name until he shouted it.
"TEMPE!!!"
"I'm sorry Michael I got distracted. What was it you were saying?"
"I was asking if you would like to go out Friday."
"Umm I'll call you."
"Is Booth there with you?"
"Yes he's my partner."
"I don't like it."
"I'm sorry you feel that way but he's my partner and your just going to have to deal with him."
"Can't you request another parnter?"
"I'm not working with nobody else."
"I don't trust him."
"Michael if you don't trust him then you don't trust me and I can't be in a relationship where I can't be trusted. Bye Michael." At that she hung up the phone and sat on the bed waiting for Booth to get off the phone. He hung up the phone and came to sit beside her.
"You ok Bones?"
"I don't know Michael seems to think that there's something going on between us."
"I wonder what gave him that idea?" he said grinning.
"I don't know Booth but it's kind of crazy to think that. Everybody seems to think that were in a relationship. She silently wished that they were but wouldn't dare tell him that.
"I can understand where their coming from Bones. We do spend a lot of time together working and outside of work."
"I know that Booth but people should ask instead of jumping to conclusions."
"Bones any man who doesn't trust you and has a problem with you working with me than they don't deserve you."
"Thanks Booth I needed to hear that. So how did Tessa take you not being able to make it to dinner?"
"Not so good either she also thinks that were in a relationship aside the partnership. But even if we were in a relationship I wouldn't tell anybody."
"Oh ok." she said and got up to go in the bathroom to change into shorts and a t-shirt. She usually slept naked but since she's sharing a bed with Booth she put that on. He left the bathroom and headed to the bed and notice that Booth was stripping down to only his underwear.
"Um Booth?"
"Yea?"
"Are you putting anything else on?"
"No I get really hot during the night so I only sleep in my boxers and socks."
"I'm not sleep in the bed with you only with boxers on!!!"
"It's this or I go naked. So u can either get in the bed or you can sleep on the couch." he stated getting in the bed and leaving room for her if she got in.
Bones didn't have much of a chose so she got in the bed and stayed to the far end where she couldn't touch him during the night. But fate has it that sometime during the night they were drawn towards each other like magnates.
