Last year the dress and the gift were for Sherlock. She should have known; she needn't have made a fool of herself. So after that night, Molly decided that her affections would be more welcome elsewhere.
It was quiet, unassuming Molly who helped the inspector through his messy divorce and made him smile again. And it was the older, kind, gentle Greg who helped the pathologist hold her head high with confidence.
This year, the gift was for him, the smile was for him, the dress was for him.
As Greg pulled his gift out of the Christmassy bag, he barked out a laugh of genuine amusement.
Molly smiled, "I just had to get it for you."
Greg pulled her into a hug, kissing the top of her head. "It's perfect."
He set his present down at the front of his desk and shut the door behind them.
The bobble head Bobby nodded his head as the inspector and the pathologist walked out, hand in hand.
A/N: If there are any Bones fans reading this, you may recognize Booth's Bobble head Bobby. I wish the FOX network would sell them! They'd make a fortune, I know.
