Okay this story is taking place after "Killer in the Churchyard", but only because they have been to therapy. Other than that, it is all from my head!! Please read and review, it means the world to me!!
Chapter 1
Booth pulled his FBI issued SUV into his parking structure. He couldn't wipe the smile off his face. The partnership was back! Thanks to Dr. Wyatt everything was back to normal. The guilt that he had been holding on to was suddenly gone. He wasn't the reason Bones stayed. Okay, yes he was slightly dissapointed but at least she made the decision for herself. Bones had decided what was best for her, and Sully was not it! Booth walked up to his door and unlocked it. Just as he had stepped into his apartment his phone rang. He pulled it out and checked the call display, it was his partner. He smiled to himself, he loved it when she called him.
He answered as cooly as he could.
"Booth,"
"Hey Booth, it's me."
Yah Bones, I know, what's up?" Booth put his keys on the table and walked back to his bedroom and changed out of his work clothes.
"Um, I was just wondering if you had, had dinner yet?"
Taking any opportunity to do so he decided to tease her.
"Why Bones, are you asking me out?"
"Ah no, it's just that when we close a case, we go for dinner and tonight we didn't. We finished our paperwork and then you took off."
Booth chuckled to himself and shook his head.
"I didn't take off Bones. I just had to get it filed, plus you wanted to go back to the Jeffersonian. You didn't say anything so I assumed you would be working. Why have you had dinner?"
"No, but I was thinking about getting a pizza and watching a movie. It has been a very stressful couple of weeks."
Booth decided to find out what she was getting at.
"How are you going to watch a movie Bones?" Then stated the obvious. "You don't have a TV."
Bones figured it was now or never.
"Well that is why I am on my way to your place."
Surprised by her unexpected announcement, Booth tripped on his own words.
"You're what?"
Looking around at his somewhat disheveled apartment all he could think was stall, stall!!!
"Um Bones, how do you know I don't have a hot date or something tonight?"
"Oh right, sorry Booth. I just assumed you weren't seeing anyone. I guess I could go to Angela's. Sorry, I guess I will talk to you on monday. Have a good weeke..."
Booth didn't want to lose this opportunity. He spoke right over her.
"No Bones, I was kidding. I would love to have dinner with you, here."
"Why do you do that?"
"I was just teasing you Bones, plus Jack and Angela probably have their hands full. Where are you?" He knew she was driving and talking.
"I am just pulling into the pizza place now. I already got the movie, so I could be there in twenty minutes, if that's okay?"
"Well I guess it's a good thing I grabbed beer on my way home. I'll be here Bones."
"Sounds good, thanks Booth."
Booth scrambled and picked up the dirty dishes and toys left from Parkers last visit. He couldn't help but smile. She was coming to his house. Bones never did that. Just as he had the last dish washed, there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and found his partner holding a large pizza and the movie she had promised.
This is going to be a lot harder than you thought. What have you gotten yourself into Brennan?
So please review and let me know what you think. I love reviews!! I do understand that the alerts aren't working so I hope y'all stick with me!!
