I was asked to do another chapter from Booths POV, so here it is.

Disclaimer: Not mine, I don't own Bones or Fox

It's Bones party today and I had told her that I would come, but I don't know if I can. Hannah just called and she said that she didn't feel so good and that she would love it if I came home, so I did. I mean sure, it isn't like I wanted to stay at the Hoover.

But, Bones's party is in an hour and I needed to get her gift from my table at home. I wouldn't be able to tell Hannah 'I know you're sick, but I kind of told Bones I would be at her party, so I have to go'. Hannah is my girlfriend and Bones is just my partner.

Besides, Bones has more friends. She doesn't need me around. she has Angela, Hodgins, the squints, Cam, and all the people at the lab. She won't miss me. I'll just give her the gift tomorrow. Maybe I'll call her later.

After I've left the Hoover and I'm on my way to get some soup for Hannah, my phone rings. Its Angela.

" Booth"

"Where are you. The party starts soon and everyone is already here. Bren looks great."

" Look Angela, I don't think I'll be there. Hannah is sick so I need to take care of her. Besides, Bones won't even know that I'm not there."

"Sure, choose Baghdad Barbie over your partner. What do you mean Bren won't notice you are not there? She has been looking for you the whole time."

" Yes, I am going to choose Hannah over Bones because Hannah is my girlfriend. Bones is just my partner. Bye Angela, I'll see you tomorrow."

"You better hope not." And with that, Angela hung up, leaving me annoyed and feeling a little bad.

Why should I feel bad for wanting to stay with Hannah? She is my girlfriend, I am allowed to help her feel better.

After I pick up the soup and drive back to my place, Hannah greets me at the door.

"Hey Hannah, I thought you were sick. I got you some soup."

"Thanks, but I feel better now. You can still help me with some things though." She winked and pulled at my tie.

" Maybe later, I'm starving right now though. Let's eat. This soup smells delicious." I dodge around Hannah and set the food on the table and begin opening it.

" I get you to come home early from work and all you want to do is eat?"

Maybe I should have gone to Bones's party after all. I look at the clock, 7:30. I would either be fashionably late or stand out like a sore thumb. I didn't want to take the chance of the latter happening, so I decide not to go to the party. I compromise by calling her later and explaining myself.

" Hannah. I've had a long day at work and I really would just like to eat right now."

Hannah sighs, but goes and eats her soup. I realize that my relationship with Hannah has changed since she came over here. I try, but I can't figure out why.

The rest of dinner is silent and afterwards Hannah silently goes to the bedroom, leaving Booth alone at the table.

I look at the clock, 8:53, and decide that now would be good to call Bones. I dial her number and wait for her to pick up.

"Brennan"

"Hey Bones, sorry I couldn't come. Hannah is sick so I was helping her and-" I'm cut off before I can finish. I decide to lie and say that Hannah actually was sick so that It sounds like I had an actual reason to not be there.

"I'm sorry too Booth" And she hung up, leaving me confused. I somehow feel like she has more than one meaning to that and I'm pretty sure it has to do with our seven month leave. I'm mean sure, I felt like things were different, but I had a girlfriend now. Things had to be different.

They just had to be.
