Yeah I know I got a bunch of stuff that needs updates, but this needs to come out.

HANNAH is in this but only the second chapter and briefly in the third then B&B all the way.

In the three months since Booth and Brennan cut their overseas work short they'd found a comfortable working relationship with the occasional lunch or drink after work. To say Brennan missed spending time with Booth would be an understatement, what she really missed was spending the weekends with Booth and sometimes Parker.

It was Sunday and Brennan was getting ready to head to Booth's apartment; they'd had had a case and Booth got knifed in the upper thigh on Friday. It wasn't serious six stitches and Booth was on his way home, Brennan wasn't that worried Hannah would be there to take care of him, but Brennan had called him twice today and didn't get an answer.

Brennan grabbed her keys and headed out, arriving at Booth's apartment Brennan noted Hannah's car wasn't in the guest space. Brennan knocked twice and hearing nothing she carefully opened the door. Booth was home, his shoes were by the door and a takeout receipt dated this morning was on the floor.

"Booth?"

"Bones?"

"Yeah, where are you?"

"Bedroom, Hannah's not here."

"Are you okay?"

"Just dandy."

Brennan rolled her eyes at Booth's sarcasm and headed to Booth's room. Brennan found Booth sprawled on the bed in grey sleep shorts with takeout cartons surrounding the nightstand.

"Booth, where's Hannah?"

"France, covering the French trade unions strike over pension reforms, or something the voicemail was garbled."

"Does she know you're injured?"

"I think so, I left her a voicemail, and she was gone when I got home."

"Booth you should have called me, you're not supposed to walk around that much."

"I'm fine I haven't been up that much, Sid delivers now. I eat whatever he leaves on the table."

"Still, you should have called me."Brennan looked at Booth's pant leg, it had fresh blood on it, "Booth, when did you check your bandages?"

"This morning when I got up, why?"

"You're bleeding, let me look at it."

Booth rolled over and Brennan pulled the leg of the shorts up and pealed back the bandages.

"You pulled half your stitches out, you need to go back to the E.R. and let them sew it up again."

"No, can't you put a band-aid on it?"

"No, will you let Cam come and look at it and sew it up if she can or go to the ER if she says to?"

"Yes."

Brennan left the room to call Cam, a half hour later the pathologist was in Booth's bedroom.

"Ya know big guy you're lucky I'm good friends with the doctor that stitched you up in the E.R., Tom's mad that you destroyed his handiwork, but he let me have the supplies to sew you back up."

"Thank you, Camille."

"You're welcome, Seeley, now hold still this may pinch." Cam inserted the needle with the local in it and Booth didn't even flinch. Forty minutes later Booth was the proud owner of 6 new stitches.

"I'm all done, let Brennan help you out I don't want to have to do this again. Brennan you're off until at least Wednesday." Brennan nodded, Cam left.

Later that day after Booth had slept the local and pain killers Brennan made him take off, he made his way slowly to the living room."

"Bones you're still here?"

"Yes, I called Sid and told him he didn't need to make a delivery tonight, I'll go to the diner and get us dinner later."

"Okay."

"When's Hannah coming back?"

"Friday I think."

"Okay." Brennan went back to reading her report.

The week passed with Booth and Brennan hanging out, Booth realized he was truly happy with just Brennan and he didn't miss Hannah at all. Thursday night after dinner, Booth turned to Brennan, "Bones, I think it'd be best if you went home tonight. I've been thinking and it over for Hannah and I, she's been gone a week and she's never called me back. It'd be better if you aren't around when I break up with her."

"I'm sorry Booth."

"Its fine we'll talk about it later."

"Okay."

An hour later Brennan was gone and Booth was alone thinking about who had just left and who was coming….

What do you think?
