Brennan stared helplessly at the blank document on her computer screen. Her thoughts had trailed away and she was left in blankness as a cause. She had no thoughts, no agendas; she was completely and utterly bored!

The light tapping from a distant hallway at the Jeffersonian annoyed her. Couldn't she be mindless in peace! Then a familiar shuffle, and as she looked up she noticed Booth walking happily into her office. He stopped when he noticed the blank stare from his partner, "Whoa, who took the life out of you this morning?"

Brennan rolled her eyes, "I'm just having a brain block, it happens all the time on Mondays." She explained drowsily with her lip slightly curled.

Booth noticed the curl in her lip and came to the conclusion that she had been up all night. "Bones, maybe you should go home and sleep."

Brennan shook her head stubbornly. She didn't want to go home and miss a murder case. "I'm fine, I just need some food." She said hoping he'd go out and get Thai food for her. She glanced up at him with a blank stare. He chuckled a little out of pity.

Booth could tell she wouldn't back down on her decision so all he could do was offer other things she might enjoy, "Okay well, I'm pretty sure I could call up some Thai food."

Brennan smiled. He had read her mind and it made her think back to all the other times they had been able to tell what each other was thinking. "Yeah, that would be great." She said weakly, realizing the tired stress in her voice.

Booth nodded contently, "Okay I'm going to do that and when I get back…you better be happy." He teased with a gingery smile crossing his lips. They both shared warm glances before Booth gestured a temporary farewell and exited out the door of her office.

She smiled after him feeling a slight cringe in her insides. Was she getting butterflies or was it just the lack of sleep acting up? Whatever it was, she suddenly realized how much she needed that food, and whenever the time came, sleep.

Brennan caught sight of Angela and Hodgins approaching from the lab and groaned a little to herself. There was no way she'd be able to stay up long enough to hear whatever they had to say.

"Get this Brennan, Hodgins was able to figure out where the girl was murdered before she had been moved into the Fish tank. Apparently…" Angela was cut off by her friend.

"Ang, please. I can't think today. I was up all night and I can barely talk let alone use logical reasoning." Brennan said clenching her forehead in pain. She was beginning to feel sick as well as tired. She could barely make out a sound of sympathy from Angela as she spoke out because all the voices around her were beginning to sound like one big jumble of chaos.

It was then that she fell down heavily upon the floor and all went black.
