Booth walked into the Jeffersonian Medico-Legal lab looking for his partner. They had just finished a hard case, and to celebrate, he had brought along the finest bottle of Tequila he could buy. Mexican Tequila. Walking into her office, he saw the other Squints sitting on her couch and chairs looking morose and depressed.

"Hey everyone! Why so gloomy?" He said in a chipper voice.

Angela just looked at him with a blank look. So not Angela, he thought to himself as he walked to stand in front of them all. Ange and Jack were sitting on the couch, with Bones sitting on the armrest, Cam and Sweets were each in a chair, and Daisy was standing with her hands in Sweets shoulders.

"Booth… this was just a really hard case, and were not really shaking it off well" Bones replied to him.

Sobering up quickly from his good mood, Booth replied to her, and the Squints,

"This was a shitty case. We all know that. But the main thing to remember is that we caught the guy. Yes, he raped and killed six girls. But he wont be able to hurt anyone else. Without you guys, we wouldn't have caught him. He would still be out there. Remember that."

The group mumbled under their breaths words he could not make out.

"Ok, guys, lets go. I've got this whole bottle of Tequila here, and you all are going to help me drink it. To celebrate, to forget, either way. Let's just get drunk."

"I'm up for that" Angela said as she got to her feet. She grabbed the bottle out of Booths hand and started to leave the office.

"Hey, where are you going with that?" he shouted after her

"I'm going up to the lounge. I am going to get some shot glasses and cut up a few lemons. Then I am going to get hammered. Just like the rest of you." She replied over her shoulder as she made her way up the stairs to the lounge.

Jack quickly got up to follow her, but stopped at the door

"You think one bottle will be enough? I've ahh,,,," he shot a guilty look at Cam "got a little…extra…brewing in my office…"

"Might as well grab it, with the amount in the bottle, and the body weights of the people planning on getting drunk tonight, we will need more" Brennan replied to him as she also stood.

"I am not staying for this" Cam said as she got up and left. "And any damage sustained to the building will be coming from your pay checks" she hollered over her shoulder as she went into her office to collect her coat.

"Daisy?" Sweets said, looking up into Daisy's face.

"Sure, I'd really like to forget what happened, and I'd certainly like to get drunk, Lancelot, but only if your up too it…" She replied

"Sure, I actually am a fan of Tequila." He said as he made his way to the door of Brennan's office.

Booth looked at Bones and Bones looked at Booth. Silently they turned in tandem and walked out of the office and up the stairs.

By the time they got there, Angela had already laid out the first shot and Cam had locked up the doors on her way out. Quickly they all threw it back and slammed their cups down on the table, grimacing at the taste and feel of the liquor burning its way down their throats. Three shots later, they were starting to perk up.

"Okay, I have an idea" Angela announced to the group

"Uh oh" muttered Sweets under his breath.

"Everyone, its time for TRUTH, DARE, or TEQUILA!" she said with a little shake to her shoulders and a coy smile on her face.
