When You Say You Love Me
Chapter 1

So… I've noticed that I have issues in completing an entire story… so im sticking to one, two or three shots…. This will be two… possibly three. I have a strange liking for fics where the squints find out about a BB relationship. So here's one. And I just noticed that I write most of my fics as a gala party fic…. But whatever. Here's the first chapter of this one.

Disclaimer… I don't own squat. Sadly.

It was another one of those infamous galas; this one was an FBI and Jeffersonian gala. They had worked in sync for the past four years so, why not throw a party together? There were a few differences from the last one. For one, the forensic anthropologist and the special agent were now, and finally, in love. This was not just one of those loves that is just there, this was head over heals movie love. The kind you hear famous artists sing about, the kind no one thinks actually exists. But it in fact does. And second, the entertainment for the night was a step up from the last one complete with ZZ Top (courtesy of Angela), and Josh Groban. Hodgins actually didn't fight Goodman or Cam on it, which I may add was also new. So here the squints went to the gala they would never forget. Well, Zach might… he got a bit drunk. Well, anyway, back to the anthropologist and the agent...

"Bren! My dad got us in the limo with them and Josh Groban! Who are you going with anyway? And do you know who Booth is going with? Because we need to tell them how many of us are going in the limo." Angela asked Brennan. Of course, she hoped Brennan would say something like 'I'm going with Booth' but in reality she knew it would be the ever common 'I'm not going with anyone Ange'.

"I'm actually going with Booth. Since we are the liaisons between both benefactors we thought we should go together and Cullen thought it was a good idea." Brennan answered. Well that was pretty much the truth. They were going together but not as Angela thought. They were going as themselves, Temperance Brennan and Seeley Booth. And Cullen had agreed. He'd agreed not to split them up once he found out about their romance; the only catch was they had to tell everyone. Apparently, there was some bet going on between not only the FBI and also the Jeffersonian. Cullen had won.

"OH MY GOD! SWEETIE! WE NEED TO GET YOU A HOT NEW OUTFIT!"

"Ange, it's fine I have the dress from my brother's wedding." This wedding was also the place the two had finally, and I mean finally, done the horizontal mumbo. According to Booth it was all because of that dress.

"Well let me see it and then I'll tell you if it's fine."

"Fine," Brennan said walking with Angela to her office where the dress had been kept.

"…wow," was all Angela could get out. The dress was gorgeous. It was black and it hung just to the knees. It was v-neck, and I mean v-neck. The back swooped down low, but not too low. When you moved the dress just seemed to shine. Which was probably just because of the material but hey, whatever.

"Hey, Bo-" Booth said walking into her office nearly choking on his coffee. There was his Bones wearing that dress. The dress that has the words 'fuck me' all over it. It was The Dress. Booth believed it was a gift from God. Brennan only the other hand said it was a gift from fashion designers.

"Hi Booth." Brennan said giving Booth a smile knowing exactly what he was thinking.

"Alright, well I'm going to go call my dad and tell him that there's seven of us." Angela smiled looking at the couple. Cam was going with one of the other head honchos of the Jeffersonian which made seven. Zach again had no date.

"You're wearing that dress again." Booth managed to choke out.

"Yeah… you got a problem with that agent Booth?" Brennan joked.

"Nope, no problem at all…Dr. Brennan" He said in one of those sexy tones walking up to his favorite forensic anthropologist. The second and I mean the second Angela had left the office Booth had his hands all wrapped up in her long hair and was kissing her. So this lasted for like thirty seconds until Brennan realized she was in her office and any one of the squints could walk in at any moment.

"Booth! Just because I'm wearing The Dress does not mean you can break all the rules. That was what your tenth offence?!" she said laughing.

"You didn't seem to mind last night," he waggled his eyebrows at her, "and what does it matter if they catch us now? We're telling them tonight anyway." He gave her those puppy dog eyes.

"Ha. How are we planning on telling them anyway?"

"Oh, don't you worry Bones…. I got the whole thing figured out."

"Well, are you going to tell me what that plan is?"

"Nope! Love you!" He smiled walking out of the office before he completely lost his self control… again.
