Chapter 1...
Dr. Temperance Brennan walked into the Jeffersonian for the first time since her vacation, and went towards her department.
She was about to walk in when she saw Angela standing there. The artist smiled when she saw her best friend. She walked towards Brennan, and hugged her.
"Oh Sweetie! I've missed you. How was your holiday? Did you meet a handsome man?"
The holiday had been quite peaceful for Brennan. She read a lot, and thought a lot about Booth. She had had plenty of time to think about it. It was her own fault that she had refused, and she now regretted it, but now it was too late. Booth was together with Hannah.
"The holiday was wonderful. It was very relaxing." Temperance looked at Angela's face and saw her grin. "Not in that way!"
"Honey, I don't understand you. Before you fell in love with Booth, you were different. Since you rejected him, now everything's changed... are you sick?"
"That's not funny. I'm not sick. I'm fit as a fiddle." She sighed. "I made a big mistake and I have to live with it. Booth is happy with Hannah. I'm happy that I can still call him my friend after that."
Brennan swallowed. "I need to work now. I'll see you later." She left her friend standing there and went to her office.
Angela looked at her friend. It hurt to see Brennan suffering like that.

Dr. Brennan was standing on the platform and working with the bones of a young woman when someone put a hand on her shoulder.
"Hi, I don't mean to bother you, but I wanted to ask you something. It concerns you and Angela."
Temperance looked up, annoyed. She didn't like it if anyone bothered her at her work. When she saw that it was Cam, though, she calmed down.
"Hello Cam. Do you need something?" The woman turned to her boss and looked at her, perplexed.
"I wanted to ask you and Angela if you would like to have a girls' night out!" Brennan cocked her head.
"Girls' night out? What is that?"
"You don't know what it is?"
"No I don't," said Brennan, and she shrugged her shoulders.
"Wait and see." Camille smiled softly. "I can count on you?"
"Yes, you can. Can I get back to work now?" She pointed at the bones.
"No! Go home, get ready. Angela already left." She pushed Temperance away from the platform. Dr. Brennan didn't like it, and complained loudly.

Dr. Brennan reluctantly went home and got ready for her evening out. She didn't like it, but what could she do? Cam was counting on her.
She was dressed in a jeans and a black top. Her hair was down, and was slightly wavy. She had even put on a bit of makeup for the occasion.
When she finished dressing, Temperance looked into the mirror, intrigued. She didn't want to sound conceited, but she really liked the way she looked.
Looking forward to the occasion much more than she had been earlier, she went out to meet the others.

Temperance went outside and saw Angela and Cam talking and laughing on the other side of the street.
Brennan went up to them and said, "Hello! What is so entertaining?"
"Hodgins wanted to come with us. I mean, hello! It's a girl's evening! He was just jealous," Angela told her.
"And that's funny?"
"Honey! You should have seen his face," the artist said, and rolled her eyes.

Two hours later...
Angela, Temperance, and Cam were sitting around, talking about everything. Work, friendship, and many other topics came up.
The conversation was halted, however, when Angela began to get a queasy feeling in her stomach.
She stood up and ran to the bathroom. Cam and Temperance looked after their friend in surprise, and then looked at each other. Neither knew what was happening.
"Sorry, but I have to go after Angela," Brennan said.
"Should I do come with?"
"No, I think I can handle it alone."
Temperance smiled to Cam apologetically, and then she went after Angela.

"You don't look well, Ange!"
Angela turned, saw Temperance standing behind her, and nodded.
"I don't feel particularly well. I'll think I'll go home." She walked over to her best friend, but went a little too fast and had to hold on to the wall to avoid falling over. Temperance saw her struggle and went over to help support her.
"Ange, give me your cellphone please." Angela took her phone out of her purse. She dialed her fiance's number, and handed the phone to Temperance.
After a few seconds, Hodgins answered the phone.
"Hey sweetheart, how's your evening?"
Temperance was shocked. Her mouth opened and then closed. It was a strange, but funny, situation.
"Jack, I am...Temperance..."
There was no answer. Hodgins was too ashamed to speak.
"How's Angela? Sorry about that, I shouldn't call you sweetheart." He coughed.
Hodgins and Brennan blushed.

Do you like it? Should I continue?
