Disclaimer: I do not own anything that has to do with 'Bone's if I did however, you could bet I would have gotten them together in season 1 lol

Based on the episode "Death in the Saddle".

Bones stared in a daze out the passenger side window and thought over what Booth had explained to her the Diner a few minutes ago. Never had she though there was a difference when it came to sex. To her it was a means to an end, it was a meeting of two people to fulfill humans' biological urge to please and be pleased. However, the way Booth had just explained it to her was something even her scientific brain couldn't completely wrap her head around, and it bugged her. It bugged her to think that she had never truly witnessed an act such as what Booth had described.

"Here we are. All of us, basically alone, separate creatures just circling each other; all searching for that slightest hint of a real connection. Some look in the wrong places, some, they just give up hope because in their mind they're thinking, "Oh, there's nobody out there for me." But all of us, we keep trying over and over again. Why? Because every once in a while, every once in a while two people meet and there's that spark. And yes Bones, he's handsome and she's beautiful and maybe that's all they see at first, but making love? Making love, that's when two people become one." Booth said as he leaned towards her and whispered with such conviction and belief that his speech had rendered her speechless and the tone made her awestruck.

"It is scientifically impossible for two objects to occupy the same space." She replied with a little grin of rebellion.

"Yeah, Bones, a miracle. Those people, role playing and their fetishes and their little sex games, it's crappy sex. You know, at least compared to the real thing." Bones said still whispering, bringing his partner more and more in a trance.

Booth would sneak a look at his partner every now and then. The moment they had left the Diner she had fallen silent. Normally they shared silences and it was one of comfort, but at the moment his curiosity was peeked and he wanted to know what was on her mind.

"What's on your mind Bones? You've been quiet ever since we left the Diner." he asked as he snuck another peak before slowing down at an intersection.

Tempe snapped out of her reverie and turned her head slightly to meet Booth inquisitive brown eyes.

"Nothing really, I was just thinking about what you said earlier." She replied still not completely coherent. She didn't know why it fazed her the way it did, and because for once in her life she didn't have an answer to her inquiry.

Booth regarded her with a small smile. He knew from the look in her eyes when he was saying it earlier that it had an impact on her, but he had no idea how much of an impression he had made.

"You're not going back on what you said earlier are you? Because once you commit defeat you can't take it back." He said in all seriousness. It wasn't often that he won arguments, and he was going to make sure that their current would stick.

Brennan looked at him and rolled her eyes amused at how childish her partner sounded.

"Don't be such a child Booth, I admitted you had a good argument and I stand by my word." She said getting back down to earth and into the moment, putting their past conversation in a corner of her mind for her to bring up again later when she was at home.

Booth slowed the SUV to a slow crawl and finally to a stop directly in front of her apartment building. Turning off the ignition he went to unbuckle his seatbelt.

"You want me to walk you up Bones?" He asked in earnest. It was coming to the point where he longed to be with 'his' Bones every waking moment. Wait!! His Bones?! He thought for a moment before smiling, he liked the sound of that.

"You know you don't need to show off your gallantry and alpha male possessiveness. I'm a grown woman Booth; I can walk up a couple of flights of stairs on my own." She replied a little tartly. Seeing the hurt expression spread across Booth's face however made her take a breath, close her eyes and try again. "What I meant to say was, I appreciate your concern, but there is no need for you to trouble yourself." She said a little quieter before she undid her own seatbelt and placed her hand on the door handle and pulled it slightly towards her. She dropped one foot to the cement when Booth grabbed her arm. She turned around to meet his eyes and what she saw made her insides just melt. He had put on the 'Booth's Charmer Smile' and was kicking it into hyperdrive.

"I know you don't NEED me to walk you up, and I'm not asking because I want to prove just how gallant I am or for my alpha male tendencies." He said as he pressed the release on his seatbelt catch and opened his own door to meet her on the other side. "I'm offering because I like walking you to your door." Was all he said, to Bones however, he couldn't have been sweeter. All she could was nod faintly and he walked up the steps to the entrance.
