"You have never been sledding?!" Booth asked.
"Well…I never saw the point to going down on a piece of plastic and having to walk back up and just do the same boring routine over and over again until you are too cold and wet to continue."
Booth was now smiling and shaking his head.
"Bones, if you think of it like that, of course its gonna be pointless and besides, its not the going down on a sled over and over again that make people love it. It's the people you are with, the memories that you are creating just by doing the same pointless routine over and over again."
"Im not sure I understand."
"Okay, this is how much I care about you and how good of a friend I am, we are going sledding."
"Booth, I don't want to go sledding."
"Too bad,"
"No, its too bad for you, I am not going."
"Bones please, just…just come and if you don't like it after a few tries, I can take you back to your bones."
She nodded reluctantly and thought how bad could it be? I mean like Booth says "don't bash it til you try it"
They were both ready. She wore her coat with a toque and mitts and he wore his suit and long black coat over top. Luckily, Parker had left one of his sleds in the SUV.
They arrived at a hill to find themselves completely alone.
"Okay, sit down."
"I don't feel comfortable going down by myself Booth."
"Aw come on Bones."
"How about you go down first?"
"How about, I go down with you."
Brennan thought, "Alright,"
He sat down and she sat in between his legs. His arms wrapped around her waist and she held onto his hand.
"Okay, ready?" he asked.
"As ready as Ill ever be."
Booth put his hands on the ground and began to move them until they were finally on their way down the hill.
They laughed the whole way down.
They ended up hitting a bump and they both fell off of the sled.
She landed on him and they were both still laughing. When they finally made eye contact, the laughing faded off. She slowly leaned in and he met her halfway and their lips came into contact. He rested his hands along her arms and she had one hand on his face, cupping his cheek and the other on his shoulder. When they finally pulled apart it was because oxygen was a necessity.
"I love sledding Booth…and I…I…"
"I love you too Bones."
They made their lips touch once again.
