Bones had to smile at at her partner, Booth, in amusement. They'd been searching a premises for about an hour now and had just stumbled upon the woman's collection of sex toys that had been in the back of the closet in what was obviously a womans bedroom. As usual, Booth had become squeamish about something related to sex. What she found even more amusing was the fairly obvious erection that he'd gotten when the toys had been revealed. His constant twists and body movements to hide the rising evidence of his arousal at the idea of a woman pleasuring herself with these toys.

"What's the matter, Booth," she asked calmly as she pulled the box of toys towards her. She began to pull each one out and examine them, both out of a desire to be thorough in the search, but also because she had quite a collection of "toys" herself and was curious to see if this woman had any that she herself didn't have. "They're only sex toys," she remarked. She held up a large dildo which looked very realistic and had a scrotum at the bottom of the shaft.

"Bones," he whined in frustration. He was not a prude when it came to sex, but she always seemed to enjoy bringing it up when they were working, or in a public place somewhere. Then something on what she was holding caught his attention. "What the hell is a suction cup doing on the base of that thing?"

"It's called a dildo, Booth," she patiently admonished. "And as for this," she pointed at the suction cup, "you can put this on a flat surface, like a chair or a wall, and use it to simulate intercourse without having to manually manipulate it. I have several of these myself, of varying sizes. In fact I was considering going to a sex shop on Saturday and purchasing a new one."

"Varying sizes?" Booth managed to squeak out, though he was sure that he was not going to be comfortable with the answer.

"Of course," Bones continued. At first she'd wanted to tease him a bit to see what kind of reactions he would have, as that was always an amusing pastime, but now she had a strange stirring inside and wanted to see if this could be used as a catalyst to have the serious relationship that she'd wanted with him for some time. That damn line of his had been the stumbling block for two years now, and no matter how many casual lovers she'd been to bed with since he'd laid down that ridiculous line, she still wanted him. It had gotten to the point that for the last couple of months she had actually preferred to masturbate instead of contacting one of the numerous male acquaintances she knew who she could call upon for a night of sex, no strings. "Depending on how I want to achieve orgasm, the size of the dildo is important. I realize that when I am with a real man, the choice is not there, but when I pleasure myself it is nice to have some control over certain aspects."

Booth was almost too afraid to ask, but for some reason he did anyway. "'How you want to achieve orgasm'?" he questioned, repeating her words.

"My body is very sensitive and able to achieve orgasm in a number of ways, as are most women," she explained, combining a bit of biology with her new strategy to get Booth. "Take vaginal versus anal intercourse. I enjoy both, and while I can have an orgasm anally from a larger penis, I prefer a more moderate size penis for anal sex. For vaginal intercourse I enjoy a larger penis, though I am not what Angela refers to as a 'Size Queen'. Then of course there is the whole question of double penetration."

Booth's jaw almost fell to the floor. He couldn't believe that Bones was being that direct and open about her sexual preferences, though he shouldn't be all that surprised, and he was even more incredulous at how turned on he was by it.

"I think that about covers it for now, Bones," he said quickly as he gestured for her to put the toys back in the box. He stood up and looked around. "I think we have enough for now. Let's head on back to the Jeffersonian and I'll drop you off. The diner for dinner tonight?" he asked, desparate for a change of subject.

"Sure," Bones said with a smile. Inside she was pleased to see how well her plan was working so far. It was very evident that he had enjoyed her talking about her sex toys and what she preferred. It was going perfectly.

A/N: There's chapter one. I came up with this one after a conversation with a good friend who wondered aloud as to whether Bones had sex toys. As it seems likely that she would given her views about sex, I asked myself if she would possibly use sex toys as a way to get Booth to erase that line he drew. This story will be my exploration of that. Let me know what you think. Gregg.
