A memory worth forgetting
Booth pauses in the doorway to brennans office,this has been happening quite often lately after the operation that left them with more problems than they started with.
Brennan:Booth,are you ok,another one,oh no,maybe I should call the doctor?
Booth:No bones,ok,Im fine,I don't need you calling Dr Jekyll everytime I get a little out of it,ok,you know they said this was recovery's a bitch though.
Brennan didn't like seeing Booth struggle,even if he didn't voice it because he didnt like to worry knew him too for the moment and because it was morning(not booths favourite time of day)she let that discussion drop.
Brennan:So what was this one about?
Booth was momentarily caught off guard,he had just noticed how glowing Bones's face looked this morning in the rising he caught himself doing this he stopped abruptly in time enough to catch her question and answer her before she had time to question his sanity again!
Booth:What was what one about?
Brennan:The flashback youjust had,well,I presume that was what was going on,as that is the way it has been happening for the past few months,youstop suddenly,whether in the middle of a conversation or when Im trying to explain waht a hairline fracture means!
Booth:Dud I ever tell you that your analysis of me creeps me out,well,Im saying it now,its ,this one was not so solid,it was sort of in pieces.
Brennan:Well anything is good,this is a signalyour getting better,remembering memories so as to speak.
Booth:Like putting together pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
Brennan:Ya,thats a comparison I can work with.
Booth:Hey Bones,I think I just used a the correct term isn't it?
Brennan:Yes booth but I believe its more effective when used in a poem and not used in comparison to mental health.
Booth:Ya way to ruin my buzz there bones,anyway(pause)this is sort of were in sweets's office,probably for our weekly visit,more like another trip to the principals office...
Brennan:Hey booth you just used another simile-
Booth gives Brennan a hard stare,this was hard enough for him,why was she making it harder for him by wearing that tight blue top-wait,what-ok way off track(booth clears his throat to fix his thoughts)
Booth:Suddenly,you say you wanna have a baby,because we were playing this stupid game and well,um,I don't know how to say this but you suggested I be the father.
Of all the memories to remember,it had to be this one,Brennan suddenly felt the urge to bury herself in paperwork and dismiss Booth's very real memory as a fantasy or was a nightmare for brennan though as she didn't want to tell booth the truth-that it actually happened and he had eventually agreed-and give Booth an excuse to pledge his undying love for her........again!It was bad enough when he woke up calling her 'Bren'and trying to kiss her,because of the strange dream that felt so has been consistently trying to tell him that the dream was a result of the post operation other choice of course was to lie,to tell himit was part of this illusionary dream he had while in was never good at lying however and especially not with was like her lie detector-funny that,her own simile,great minds think alike-and it just wasn't in her nature to lie,she was honest and ,she decided to take a shot at it..........
Brennan:Sorry to halt your progress booth,but that is not a memory I know of or that we shared,so Im sorry,but I think(fidgets nervously in seat)that was probably a dream or part of your fantasy.
