First attempt at a multi-chapter fic. Review and tell me what you would like to see happen. I might not base one of my chapters on that, but it might inspire new ideas.

Brennan and Booth were preparing for a solo mission Sam Cullen was sending them on at the end of the month. First thing on the agenda, training.

Walking into the FBI training center, Brennan thought, This is ridiculous. Why do we have to do this mission. Our efforts would be better used at the lab. What makes this even worse is that we have to work with Sully and Perotta. Sully will probably spend all of his time trying to get me to go on a date with him, and Perotta will hit on Booth. God, the nerve of that woman. Hitting on my partner.

"Bones," Booth said in a singsong voice.

Brennan was quick to apologize, "Sorry, my mind was just wandering. Can you believe we have to work with Sully and Perotta?"

"I don't like it any more than you do, but we have to get along with them." Booth, always the reassuring one.

"Booth, I don't see why the FBI is sending us on this mission. We should work in the lab, solving cases."

"Bones, just go on the mission. If you don't go, they'll send me some fill-in partner that I can't stand. Just put up with it. There's no way we're getting out of this, I already tried."

Just then Perotta showed up.

"Sully's sick. He won't be here tonight."

Booth leaned towards Brennan and whispered in her ear, "That's one less we have to deal with."

"Let's start and get this over with so I can go look at my bones."

"Okay" Booth and Perotta replied at the same time.

Brennan went off toward the punching bags.

As she walked off, Booth couldn't help but watch her leave. Oh my god, she was wearing a very tight undershirt that displayed her curves. Booth couldn't help but look. He was trying so hard not to.

He followed her toward the punching bags. There were more than one set of course. It was not unusual to find agents training for fieldwork.

He walked in the punching bag room to find Brennan hitting the heaviest bag, and the bag was moving very fast.

Man, she had a good punch. Booth knew that from experience.

After she got done beating the bag, she went on to bench pressing.

As Booth watched her bench pressing, he was amazed that she could lift that much weight. She was lifting only five pounds less than he usually lifted.

Booth, of course, wanting to be a show-off, put ten pounds more on than he usually would.

After their daily training session, Booth and Brennan went out to eat. Brennan had order the same thing he had, but she was still stealing his fries.

"Bones, why are you stealing my fries when you have your own?"

In response Brennan looked at Booth with "that" look.

Booth couldn't define what "that" look was, but he knew that it was adorable. It always had an effect on it.

He quickly stuttered, "Not that I mind."

Because they were sitting in the same seat of the booth, she scooted a little closer to him.

Just then, the squints showed up. The booth was big enough to fit them all, but they would be squished. Cam, Zach, and Hodgins sat across from them, and Angela sat down by Brennan. That made Brennan scoot closer to Booth. Not that either one of them minded. They loved being close to one another.

"We need you guys on this case. We are stumped. Zach can't figure out the bones, Hodgins hasn't found anything in the bugs, and Angela's sketch isn't getting any hits."

"We have to do this solo mission, Camille. As much as Bones and I want out of it, we have to do this mission."

"I would love to look at the case file."

"Of course you would, Bren."

Cam, Hodgins, and Zach went back to the lab to work after giving Brennan the case file. Angela moved to the other side of the table, but Brennan didn't move away from Booth.

"Sweetie, why are you sitting on Booth's lap?" Angela, why'd you bring that up? Maybe we're both comfortable.

"I'm not sitting on Booth's lap."

"Not literally, sweetie, but you're really close."

She moved away reluctantly. "We're both really tired, Angela. Sorry."

"It wasn't bothering me, sweetie. The whole lab would love it."

"Angela!" Booth and Brennan shouted at the same time.

"It's the truth, though."

"Booth and have never had sex nor do we plan to."

"Well, buy guys. I've got work to do."

After Angela had left, Brennan scooted really close to Booth again. They finished eating and went home reluctantly. They liked being close. They wanted to spend all their free time together.
