A/N: Hey, folks. I thought I'd try something new, so this is me trying something new. I'm going to crank out a 100-word drabble every day that has to do with the Brennan/Booth relationship in correspondence with the letters of the alphabet. They're not in any sort of chronological order or during a specific point in/before/after the series. Annnnnnd here we go!

"Be careful, Bones," a certain FBI agent whispered slyly, his breath hot against her ear. Brennan was the self-proclaimed champion of Jenga. She was never the first to lose. Ever.
She blamed her slip-up on the wine. Her fingers, having found the appropriate block to rid from the tower, trembled when Booth brushed his lips against the back of her neck. The structure tipped precariously before falling to the table in a collapse, not much unlike the feeling he caused in her stomach.
She was unsure if she was more irritated that she'd lost or that Booth was grinning.
