Booth stood in Angela's office staring at himself in the mirror,

'is it the suits?' he thought to himself 'nah the suits say all man. The hair? No the hairs good.' he smiled and fixed the hair up a bit 'the hairs very good. The ties maybe. No they're not that bad. The shoes? Converse don't really give off that vibe. The socks! It's gotta be the socks.' Just then his train of thought was cut short by a cough behind him. He turned to find Angela standing at her office door.

"G-man I know your hot, I mean I'll admit I stare from time to time cause you are the best bit of F-B-Eye candy I've ever seen, but this is a tad ridiculous." She smiled.

"I'm not… I wasn't…" he stuttered. "Ange can I ask you something." He muttered.

"Of course Booth. but can I ask first are you blushing." He coughed.

"No of course not!" she grinned

"What did you want to ask." She coaxed him on, and sat on the couch.

"Do… do I give off a gay vibe." He blurted it out. Angela nearly choked on the mouthful of coffee she had just taken.

"What! You gay!" she laughed. "No G-man , no way in hell. There isn't a single gay vibe giving cell in your body." She shook her head.

"see that's what I thought." He stole another look at himself in the mirror.

"Where has this come from?"

"I don't want to say." He sat down beside her.

"You kinda have to now I'm afraid."
"Both Max and my Pops have asked me am I gay in the past few months." He said in almost a whisper.

"What?"

"Yeah they've both directly asked me am I gay, and I'm just trying to figure out just why they could have possibly thought that."

"They just randomly asked you are you gay. Separately?"

"Well yeah kind of. I mean… they both asked me was I in a relationship and when I told them that I wasn't they both asked am I gay." He said.

Just then the door opened and Brennan walked in. Booth jumped up off the couch.

"Hey Bones." He grinned. She looked over quickly.

"Hi Booth. I'll be with you soon I'm nearly finished with my present remains from bones storage. Angela have you got glue mine's gone."
"Top right hand drawer." Angela said watching Booths face.

"Thank you." she took it and left. Booth sat back down. Angela laughed.

"God could you be more hung up?" she smiled.

"What are you on about?" he looked at her.

"You lied to me earlier. Both Max and your grandfather asked you were you with Bren and you said no then…" she stressed "…they asked are you gay." She sat forward on the couch. "I know I'm right G-man just admit it."

"Maybe you are." He said slowly. She stood up.

"It's not the shoes or the belt or whatever that gives off the vibes it's the fact that you're around that unimaginably hot, intelligent woman the majority of your time and still haven't jumped her. nothing screams gay more then that."

She walked towards the door and turned around "and you know what. Maybe they have a point. Although I'd say your equipments broken before I'd jump to gay." She smiled and left the room leaving Booth with his jaw quite close to the floor.

He finally got it together and running over to the door shouted after her

"MY EQUIPMENTS WORKING JUST FINE! AND I'M NOT GAY!" on the platform all heads turned.

"Why did you feel the need to inform us all about that Booth. I know you're equipments working you did those fertility tests last year remember. And as for you being gay that's entirely a personal matter. Everyone you work with don't need to know that." Brennan said walking over. Just then max walked in with a group of school children and caught Booths eye.

"I'm not gay Bones." He repeated. "And I'm sick of people thinking I am." He grabbed her arm and pulled her into a kiss that would not leave anyone on earth questioning which side of the fence Special Agent Seeley Booth was on.
