Hi! This is supposed to be a B/B friendship story, but it isn't necessarily just a friendship fic. I wrote this late at night, so sorry if there is any mistakes. I wrote this in response to some fics about Booth and Brennan sleeping together with the logic of relieving sexual tension. This is in no way supposed to disrespectful to those fan fictions, I just thought that Brennan wouldn't do anything to harm her most precious friendship with Booth. I am sorry for any OOCness. I don't own anything from Bones.
Bones sat in her office. A thought had distracted her from her work. Something that barely happened. She was working on the previous case; it was about two people that were caught having sexual relations by the woman's boyfriend. The two were very attracted to each other so they relieved the tension, and got caught and killed.
Sometime during the paperwork her thoughts strayed to Booth. The case reminded her of her relationship with Booth, except they had a better ending. Or have they? Maybe the two are now together in heaven, if that exists.
When Booth and herself started working together they both knew that they were attracted to each other. Brennan thought, but never voiced, that if they slept together that they would work more efficiently, not always bickering. But soon they found out that they worked well throughout the bickering, though the tension was still there. Then, shortly after, they became friends, then very good friends.
The tension was still there. Before it wouldn't have been so bad to sleep with Booth before but now, that they know each other better, it won't be just sex. Even she knew that. They were friends. He made sure that she took care of herself, eat, sleep, and live life more, not only just working. If she and Booth were to have intercourse, it would wreck all of that.
"Bones! You're still here!" Booth said as he popped his head in the door. "Have you eaten dinner yet?"
"No," Brennan stated simply. "I was working on paperwork."
"It's eight at night, you have to eat. And I want pie!" Booth whined as he grabbed her coat from the rack and Bones put her notes away. He helped her into her coat.
They walked out of her office door and through the lab. She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye as he put his hand on her back. Yes there was still attraction.
"Bones you should eat the pie tonight," Booth announced.
"Why? Booth that stuff is so unhealthy for you, especially at night, so soon before you sleep!"
They continued bickering all the way to the diner.
It was further proof that their friendship was more important. They learn and grow from each other. They grow closer together, not just work well together. There is more to them then just attraction.
I hope you enjoyed!
