From opposite sides of town, Booth and Brennan drove through the pouring rain, trying to figure out when they were going to meet up for the day.

"Bones…" Jeez, it was raining hard. "What about dinner?"

"What?" She was practically shouting over the sound of the deluge and her windshield wipers. "Did you say you wish you were thinner?"

"What?" Booth shook his head and pulled his phone away from his ear. "I said DINNER" He shouted as his car hydroplaned through some deep puddles.

"Oh…" she nodded. "Okay." Booth thought she was a winner. That totally made sense. "Thanks, I agree."

The thunder and lightning crashed and rumbled through the city as Booth pulled closer to the old J Edgar, and his fingers tightened against the wheel. "So, where, Bones?"

"Where what, Booth?" her voice crackled as their service went in and out.

"I said WHERE do you want to EAT?" He practically moved the phone in tight to his ear and shouted.

Brennan pressed hers tight to her ear as well and nodded. But when she opened her mouth to answer, she let out a shriek as a shock moved from her ear to her hand and back again. "Ah!"

Booth dropped his phone in a hurry as sparks shot through his arm. He slammed on his brakes, but still slid a bit as he fumbled to pick up his phone. "Bones, are you okay?"

Brennan rubbed her elbow and stretched out her fingers, putting her phone on speaker. "I think so. What happened?"

"I don't know…"

"Are you okay, Booth?"

"Yeah…I'm okay. I'm almost at work, so I'll see you tonight, right? At the diner?"

"Okay…talk to you later."

They both disconnected and continued through the rain to their respective jobs.
