Author Notes: Yep based off the famous scene with Booth and Brennan with the librarian glasses ;D
I know its been done before; and I tried to find stories based on it because I didn't want it to be the same.
So hopefully this is okay; just worked on something thats been in my mind for nearly a week.
And i think this will just stay as a oneshot. enjoy!
Booth couldn't help but smirk deviously when he walked down the plane stairs and saw his partner examining the bones with her hair tied back and big thick rimmed glasses making her eyes look abnormally large. She noticed that he had come into the room, and looked up to give him her full attention.
"Alright, what I want you to do is take off your glasses, shake out your hair and say, 'Mr. Booth, do you know what the penalty is for an overdue book?'" His face was a few mere centimetres away from hers. She felt awkward but she didn't know why. Was it because of how close he was, or maybe it was that she didn't quite understand what he meant, and that his tone sounded low and gravelly.
"Why?" was all she could say. She decided not to think much of it; besides they had a murderer to catch and if they didn't conduct a proper case then the person would walk away and have no punishment for the life they so wrongfully took.
Booth sighed closed his eyes for a moment to think. He felt like a fool for just saying that her; so suggestive and wrong. He truly hoped that she wouldn't think anything of it and he decided too that it would be best to push this away to the back of his mind.
Vaguely hearing what Brennan had listed for him to get, he ran off back upstairs to the passengers compartment to salvage anything that could be used for the experiment.
After checking that he had gone, Brennan took off the glasses and took the hair band out of her hair; then proceeded to shake her head making her hair fall loosely on her shoulders. She frowned; thinking there was no meaning to it; and felt even more confused as to why she ended up attempting it.
"That was hot" A female voice could be heard from the nearly silent room. Brennan's eyes were wide open and glanced around the room. Surely Angela isn't on the plane. I spoke to her not too long ago on the laptop…
"Oh no" she muttered as she walked over to the laptop that had been covered with a black piece of fabric. She had covered the screen earlier incase of any chemicals going onto it but to her dismay she realised the webcam attached to it was still sending image and sound back to the Jeffersonian.
She removed the fabric from the screen and there sat Angela with a massive grin on the webcam feed box.
"I thought I disabled the connection" Brennan muttered
"It's a good job you didn't" Angela laughed.
"So you saw it all" Brennan replied as she stood in front of the camera, arms crossed in front of her chest.
"Yep all of it" Came the reply.
"I don't know what it means" Brennan sighed as her friend erupted into a fit of giggles.
"Don't worry sweetie. Now go; you have a murderer to catch!" Angela ushered Brennan to get back to work even though she wished she could talk all day about how her and Booth should get together
This time Brennan made sure to disconnect the live chat.
It was the day after the murderer was caught and the plane had returned back to America much to Brennan's disappointment.
Brennan fast walked into the Jeffersonian, about to go to her office when Hodgins appeared with a brown shopping bag in hand.
"Hey Dr.B; your supervisor for your new book wanted you to wear this for a photo shoot right here in the lab" He announced and pushed the bag in her direction.
"Today?" She bit her lip and eyed the bag of mystery, not too keen on wearing something that she hadn't picked out.
"Yep" Hodgins nodded and left the room, shutting the door behind him so that Brennan could change.
Booth walked into the lab just as Hodgins had finished talking to Angela. They were just ending their conversation when Hodgins saw just the man he needed to see.
"Hey Booth can you do me a favour and give this to Brennan" Hodgins handed Booth a copy of Brennan's book and carried on walking without question. Angela quickly ran into Brennan's office, thankfully for Angela's sake she; was fully dressed although there was a protest about knocking on the door before bursting in.
"Your publisher said she wants you to wear glasses and have your hair up" Angela grinned, putting the glasses on Brennan and tying up her hair.
"Why?" Brennan frowned.
"Well you look pretty sophisticated sweetie, I think it will suit your next book" Angela smiled and double checked Brennan's attire. She had on a white short sleeved fitted blouse, a dark grey pencil skirt that was just above the knees and a pair of newly polished black heels.
"Thanks I guess. I'd best leave and get this over with" Brennan muttered and walked out of her office. She was lost in a trail of thoughts whilst she was walking thus bumping into Booth.
"Hey Bones, Hodgins told me to give you this" he mumbled and handed her the book; noticing a change of her attire. His expression was priceless; jaw dropped and eyes widened and wandering here there and everywhere.
Brennan didn't acknowledge his gaze; she was too busy wondering why Hodgins would have returned her book. Doesn't he like it then? Is it a personal reason?
She opened it at the very first page and noticed a library sticker inside marked with a stamp and yesterdays date written on the said.
"What is it?" Booth overcame his trance and stepped by her side to look inside.
"It's an overdue library book" Brennan took a deep breath in as the feeling of déjà vu kicked in. She noticed Angela and Hodgins standing within earshot and figured they'd watched the whole scene which smelt like a set up. Angela nodded her head at Brennan and mouthed "go on", pretty sure that Brennan knew what she was talking about; I mean it wasn't every day that Booth had made such a comment to show his interest.
Brennan looked back up at Booth who looked slightly uneasy; and seeing that he had nothing to say she decided to take the plunge. She took off her glasses and folded them, tucking one of the handles behind the blouse so that it hung on the front. She then pulled the hair band out and let her hair fall gently, feathered out along her shoulders.
"Mr Booth; do you know what the penalty is for an overdue book?" She asked innocently with her eyes locked onto his the whole time.
Booth was not expecting this; so many thoughts racing through his brain that all he could do was stand there with his mouth wide open and blushing furiously. A roar of laughter could be heard from Hodgins and Angela was trying her best not to laugh.
Brennan looked at Angela who was walking their way, clutching her sides and giggling,
"So there's no photo shoot?" Brennan sighed.
Angela caught her breath and grinned when she saw Booth still unable to say a word.
"Nope" She replied slyly.
"So this was all a set up?" Brennan crossed her arms in front of her chest and glared at Angela.
"Oh you're catching on quick. Now about those penalties?" Angela laughed directing it at Booth.
"What..well..i..uhh..i have to go" He spluttered. His face couldn't have possibly gone redder and with that he charged off. He just walked to wherever his feet took him; dying to get over his sinful thoughts and the humility he had just been put through.
"Wrong way!" Angela shouted and nudged Brennan in the arm as Booth made his way back. She'd figured he was going to his office for some thinking alone time and he had clearly not gone the right way. He had been busted; and she was keen to take things further and have Brennan punish him; with a lot of set ups and persuasion along the way.
