Review please!

"I want to know if you would like to be the father." She said cautiously.

Booth shifted in his seat and considered the situation, "I'm really..."

Brennan cut him off, "Look, I know that I probably sprung this all on you quite suddenly, but I have seen you with Parker on numerous occasions and you are a very good father. You wouldn't need to support the child financially as I have the appropriate means to take care of it myself. You could see the child as much or as little as you wish."

Booth dropped his head and let out an exhausted breath, "You know…" he shook his head and stood, "I'm flattered but… no." he said putting his coat on and exiting the diner.

Brennan stood abruptly and left a ten on the table before grabbing her coat and running after him. She found him walking down the street, "Booth, wait!" she said, shrugging on her coat and buttoning it up.

Booth stopped abruptly and half turned to her. He looked up at the sky and then back down at the busy street in front of him.

Brennan stopped next to him and noticed that his eyes were tearing up, "What did I do? What did I say?" she pleaded.

Booth let out a half hearted laugh, "All this time Bones, I thought that I was getting through to you. I thought I was making and impression on you. It turns out that I was just seeing what I wanted to see." Booth turned and saw a window ledge and moved toward it to sit.

Brennan shifted from one foot to the other, "I don't know what I said Booth. I thought you would be happy. You seem like you want to have more children, and you are a very good father. I naturally assumed that you would be happy."

"You just don't understand." He said.

"Yes. That is what I have been saying." She said taking a step toward him and crossing her arms.

Booth shook his head and wiped his face, "How would you propose that we make this baby, Bones?"

Brennan rolled her eyes, "Well the obvious means of creating a child would be to have sex with each other. But if you don't feel comfortable because of the line of professionalism, I suppose that we could look into alternatives."

"You see!" he said standing abruptly, "You're treating it like it's some kind of science experiment."

Brennan shrugged, "Well, science and pregnancy go hand in hand."

"No, Bones. It's about love and respect."

Brennan took a step away from him and pulled her arms in tighter to her body, "Is this about your religion?" she asked.

Booth shook his head and turned away from her, "Damnit Bones, this has nothing to do with religion."

"Then what is the big deal? I want to be a mother, you want to have another child." She said exasperated.

He turned to her with anger written on his face, "I am not a sperm bank, Temperance!" he whispered with an intensity that was frightening.

Brennan stood frozen in her place, "Oh…Booth! It was never my intention to make you feel like that is all I wanted from you."

"Well what do you want from me?"

Brennan looked down at her shoes and then into the street; anything to not look at him right now, "I don't know what you mean."

"Look at me Temperance." He said. She reluctantly looked at him but avoided his eyes. He put his hands on her shoulders and leaned down to meet her eyes, "How do you see our relationship?"

Her head tilted to the side as if to seek out his meaning in the lines on his face, "Are you suggesting that we get married if we have a child?"

Booth closed his eyes and released a breath, "No." he said releasing her and standing up straight, "I'm going to go home now. You think things over and when you're ready to talk to me again, let me know."

Booth turned and walked away from her toward his car. Brennan stood on the sidewalk and watched him walk away.
