This has been on my computer for ages, so I have tweeked it, and thought I would post it.

I don't own the BB or Bones…

I haven't given up on "A Split Second" I will still be updating that regularly

This story takes place before BB were a couple


Angela and Bones:

"Angela, I don't think this is a very good idea" Brennan protested, as she took a sip from her wine glass

"Why not? It is actually a lot of fun... I am sure Booth would be up for it!" Angela smirked as she flipped through the latest edition of Cosmo

"I fail to see how doing something just because a magazine says it is a good Idea, actually will be a good idea, besides Booth and my friendship is fine just the way it is, we don't need to some.. some silly experiment, and besides, I can't guarantee that I am going to be available for that long" Bones argued

"I think the lady doth protest too much" Angela laughed "Are you afraid you are going to get too close to the G-Man, and he might see how you truly feel" Angela joked. She looked over at her best friend, who had her head down, looking away from her. "Oh My God… you are"

"Don't be silly Ange" Brennan replied, but didn't look up.

"Oh yeah, then look me in the eye, right now, and say that I Temperance Brennan, have absolutely zero feelings towards my hunky FBI partner, Seeley Booth other than pure platonic friendship, and I do not want to rip his clothes off and make love to him, and kiss him… not one iota" Angela challenged.

"Ange..." Bones looked up at her best friend, and smiled sadly

"EEEEKKKKK" Angela squealed. Bones put her hand over Angela mouth

"I do not want to always rip his clothes off and make love to him" Bones said removing her hand

"But you have thought about it…Come on, this can only make your friendship stronger… 26 days straight that you spend together... doing things for another.. Please?" Angela pulled out her best puppy dog look

"I suppose you have already spoken to Booth about this?" Bones relented

"YAY! And no Hodgins is telling him he has to do it"

"Telling him? Not asking?" Bones asked taking another sip of wine

"I figured I could sway you, so I only had to tell Booth that this is what was happening"

"And what if he has said no?" Bones challenged

"Sweetie, that man is in love with you... Any chance he can spend with you, he is going to take… so what do you want, 1st or 2nd" Angela asked, holding up 2 pieces of paper

"I guess I will go second... Angela this better not backfire" she said, taking the paper Angela offered

"It won't sweetie... and I expect updates… ok"

"Yes Angela, I know, it's all in this imaginary best friend bible you seem to own"

"That's right… it's all there in black and white sweetie" and clinked her wine glass onto Brenan's

Hodgins and Booth:

"So what do you think man, you up for it" Hodgins asked Booth, drinking his beer

"I don't know man, I doubt she will go for something like this. Bones isn't the kind of person that likes to do these kinds of things" Booth tried to protest.

"Nah man it's all set, Angela is with her right now, she is all for it, well at least that is what Ange tells me"

"Maybe I should speak to Bones first" Booth started, peeling the label off his beer

"No! I mean, it's all sorted, come on man, what are you afraid of?"

"Ruining an already fine friendship, for a start" Booth said, grabbing another Beer form the cooler beside the couch.

"How can it ruin it, it will make it better, stronger... come on G-Man" Hodgins encouraged

"Fine, if she is ok with it than so am I" Booth said, taking a large mouthful of his beer

"Ha, got to tell ya man, I thought it would have taken longer to crack you… you must really want to spend time with Dr B" Hodgins said leaning back on the couch smirking

"Loose the smirk bug boy…. Bones is my friend, of course I want to spend time with her"

"Dude, you haven't been 'friends' with Dr B in a long time..."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Booth asked, and Hodgins just looked at him eyebrow raised

"God…" Booth ran his hand over his face "Does everyone know?" he asked

"Ange and I always knew, and maybe Cam, and Max, and Caroline..."

"Whoa... Max?" Booth asked

"We all know how you feel about her, the only person that probably does, is her.

"This is not going to go well" Booth sighed

The sound of Hodgins phone beeping broke the silence.


(texting between Angela and Hodgins)

Angela "Hey babe, Bren is in... she is so in love with him, and so naive. Bren took 2nd... Let the fun begin xo"

Hodgins "Hey Booth is in too… I told him we all knew he loved her. I think he was shocked. Love you xo"

Angela "They better name their first child after me!"

Hodgins "Let's just see how this month's goes first babe. C U 2nite xo


"Angela?" Booth asked as he put his phone away

"Yeah... Dr B in all in... You are up first" Hodgins said, giving Booth the piece of paper.

"I do know the order you know" Both said glancing over the page

"Yes I know, but this is in case you want to get a head start in planning"

"And when exactly do we start this?"

"1st June baby" Hodgins smiles

"Ahh Hodgins?"

"Yeah?"

"Call me baby again and I will shot you"

"You got it man" Hodgins smiled, and watched as Booth processed what he had to do.
