Brennan awoke to a knock on her door. After staying up extremely late studying she had planned on sleeping in before she started her last day of studying. Turning over, she pulled the blankets over her head and pretended not to hear the knock. Sadly the knocking did not cease, forcing Brennan to answer the door. Angela was standing in the doorway looking…awake.

"Yes, Angela."

"We need to talk. Now!"

"Can't this wait? Midterms start tomorrow and this is my last full day to study."

"We have to do this now!"

Grumbling, Brennan let Angela in.

"What is so dire that we have to discuss it now?

"Last night I went to that Italian place we love with Todd, remember him? Well on my way out I saw you walking down the street holding hands with a really hot guy! So spill."

"Oh, him…" Brennan blushed and smiled to herself remembering the date.

"Sweetie."

"Well I called the guy from the club and asked him out. I was hoping that a date with him would get him off my mind so I could study more efficiently."

"And how was the date?"

"Good, we had Thai, went for a walk in the park, and then he walked me back to my dorm."

"Did you kiss him?"

"Yes, Ange we kissed."

"And…"

"It was… breathtaking."

"Are you gonna see him again?"

"We're planning on doing something Thursday night. He'll call me before then to figure it out. Can I sleep now?"

"Sorry sweetie, I just had to know. I'll let you get your rest."

After saying goodbye to Angela, Brennan went back to sleep. When she awoke, she promptly showered and dressed for the day. Sporting a pair of jeans and her Northwestern sweatshirt, she headed over to her kitchenette. After scanning the contents of her fridge and cabinets, she realized it was time to take a trip to the grocery store. Grabbing her purse, she made her way out of the dorm. Arriving at the store, she grabbed a cart and went to the organic section. There she stocked up on fruits, vegetables, pastas, and the other necessities. Next she needed milk, well soy milk. Upon reaching the milk section she ran smack dab into Seeley Booth.

"Oomph. Sorry miss… Hey Bones!"

"Hey Booth. Sorry about running into you."

"Who am I to complain when a beautiful woman bumps into me?"

Brennan blushed and ducked her head. Booth took this an invitation to keep talking.

"Since you're here, how would you like to have dinner and movie at my place on Thursday?"

"Depends, are you cooking?"

"Of course!"

"Then yes, that sounds like a nice evening. And what will we have to eat?"

"It's a surprise, babe, gotta wait till Thursday."

'Did he just call me babe?' Before she could ask, he gave her a quick peck on the lips and said, "I've got to run, but I'll come to your dorm around six on Thursday. I'm looking forward to it, babe." And with that he was gone.

'Babe? He called me babe, again. We're going to need to talk about pet names. I have to admit, it does warm me up inside when calls me that.' Shaking her head, she grabbed the milk and the last of her items. Strolling down the block with her purchases she contemplated the situation with Booth. They had only been on two dates, well technically one, since the first time they hadn't even known each other. It seemed like things were moving so fast between them. They'd known each other for about a week and he was already calling her pet names and she was getting this tingly sensation in her stomach every time she thought about him. And the big surprise was that none of this was scaring her. She was not one to be in serious relationships, and she could already tell she and Booth were headed in that direction. For her it was all about "satisfying biological urges," and yet with Booth she hadn't even thought about her "urges."

Looking up, she saw that she was already back at her dorm. Sighing she put all thoughts of Booth aside. It was time to focus on midterms. She could think about Booth all she wanted Thursday night. Sighing once again, she thought to herself, 'Why can't it be Thursday already?"

AN: So this is a bit short and not what I was hoping to write, but I wanted to get something to you guys soon. Their date will be in the next chapter! And I promise to get the next chapter up soon. Also THANKS to everyone who reviewed and put this on your story alerts. I hope it's living up to your expectations.
