Booth cursed in his head. Damn. He thought he was being subtle. The car was silent for a few minutes while Booth thought of something to get her to do or tell him. "Okay, Bones. Truth or dare?" he asked.
Brennan bit her lip and thought about it for a few moments. She knew that by choosing truth it meant he asked her a question and she had to tell the truth and well, that made Brennan feel uncomfortable. But if she chose Dare who knows what he'd make her do, then again it wouldn't be too bad knowing Booth. He'd take it easy on her. Well she hoped so anyway. "Dare."
Booth thought for a minute. Then inspiration struck. He turned on the radio. "Bones. I dare you to sing the next song that comes on," Booth told her with a sly smirk.
Brennan's eyes widened at the sudden realisation of the song that came on the radio. "Booth! I know this song. Angela leant me the artist's CD" she cried, growing slightly excited. Brennan started to sing along to the song and looked over at Booth keeping her expression casual as she sung "I touch myself can't get enough, and in the silence of the night through all the tears and all the lies, I touch myself and it's alright" Brennan hid her smile as she continued to sing and then the lyrics repeated later on in the song. "I touch myself all through the night, and when something falls out of place I take my time, I put it back. I touch myself till I'm on track". Her eyes shifted to look at Booth who now looked uncomfortable in his seat. Oh she knew this dare had backfired.
He looked over and saw the grin she tried to hide. Well done, Seel. He thought to himself. His cock strained even more in his pants, if that was possible. Yeah? Road trip with your very hot, sexy, and right now rather provocative partner? Not a good idea. After the song finished, Booth swallowed hard and cleared his throat before speaking again. "Very good Bones. May I say, you do have a lovely singing voice. I believe it's your turn now," he told her, bracing himself for the worst like he did back in the army. He had a feeling, however, he would need more than a scatter gun and some protection.
From the corner of her eye Brennan could notice the straining erection through Booth's pants and held back a grin. Oh yes, she was starting to like this game after all. "Why thank you Booth. You know when I was younger my mother did say that I sung better than Cyndi Lauper. Now... Truth or Dare?"
"Truth!" Booth choked out immediately. He so did not trust Bones to give him a dare; especially with that evil gleam in her eye and that mischievous smirk. He let out a deep breath and prepared himself.
Brennan thought for a second before coming up with an idea. Her eyes glanced over at Booth and examining him up and down. "Alright then Booth. Since you already know so much about my childhood. I want you to tell me what happened during yours. I mean we're partners and we're meant to share stuff like this right?" she questioned, her face innocent.
Booth groaned. He hoped she wouldn't bring that up again. Obviously, no such luck. He was silent for a moment, thinking about how to word this so he didn't sound like a poor little abuse victim. Suddenly, an idea struck him. "Well, Bones. I was born in Philly. Seeley Joseph Booth. First son to my parents: George and Mary Booth. I was christened a Roman Catholic on my first birthday, at St. Louis church in Philly. We moved to Pittsburgh when I was four. Mum had Jared when I was six. I was so excited to be a big brother. Dad has to always tell the story of when I knocked over a vase running to see mom in the hospital," Booth rambled, "Every summer from when I was ten, mum sent us to Pops' place for the summer. That's where I got this scar right here on my shin," Booth said, pulling up his trouser leg as they stopped at a traffic light again, "Me and Jared tried to build a cubby and I cut myself on a rusty nail. Had to get 16 stitches. Boy, did it hurt!" They pulled up to Brennan's apartment building. "Oh, look. Guess that's all we have time for. Seeya, Bones," Booth finished with a victorious smirk, as he helped her unload her luggage before driving off.
