Chapter 3 Lies


Sorry for the ridiculously long wait for another chapter, I have been extremely busy, plus I read, rewrote and read for one month just so you would like it. Ch. 4 is almost set, but you'll have to wait a few days (probably next Thursday). Please R&R (I respect honesty, but don't be too harsh please). Also, just to clarify, this in no season order (if it was it would be around season 5). Enjoy!


Brexington High School

Booth and Brennan entered the school's main office, and were greeted by a woman in her 40's with light brown hair and brown eyes, she however, paid no real attention to Brennan, as her main focus was Booth. The office was cold and had very poor lighting, which seemed odd considering the how bright and modern the school looked. Slowly, the woman rose from her desk and approached Booth and Brennan, with a subtle grin on her face, and a subtle sway of her hips. She was on the prowl.

"Hello, my name is Candice Thorn, and you are?" Her stare failed at really getting Booth's attention, and left him with a unpleasant shudder.

"Ugh, yeah, Special Agent Seeley Booth, FBI," Booth flashed his badge at the woman.

"FBI? Sounds serious if you're here, what can I do for you?"

"I'm here looking for a student named Todd Able, is he here today?"

"Uh, let me check," Candice quickly returned to her deck, and sat a her desk and typed at an a truly exceptional speed. After a couple of seconds the computer dinged, and she called them over. "Yup, he's here, in block C, history," she turned her chair around and got up from her seat once gain, and approached them. "If there's anything else I can do for you Agent Booth, please don't hesitate to ask,"

"Thanks, but I think that's all we really need right Bones?"
He asked, while inching slowly away from the woman towards Brennan. Booth quickly walked out of the office with Brennan behind him.

"She seemed quite attracted to you Booth," Brennan chuckled.

"Really Bones? I didn't notice, thanks for that,"

"You're welcome Booth. I find it fascinating that you didn't pick up on that Booth, perhaps you can't read people as well as you think you can," Booth glared at her, and she finally caught on. "Oh, that was sarcasm," she started laughing. "It's funny," Booth didn't even bother replying to that because he could see that she was enjoying this too much. A few moments later her cellphone went off, but Brennan neglected her phone and continued down the hallway.

"Uh Bones, aren't you going to get that?"

"Of course," she replied, she grabbed the phone out of her pocket and looked at her it for a moment, then finally answered it.

"Dr. Brennan," she knew subconsciously who it was but decided she was going to play dumb.

"Hi Tempe, it's Andrew, do you want to grab a bite to eat later, and talk-" Hacker was cut off by Brennan. Brennan already knew what this was about, and she wasn't wanting to talk about it.

"I'm working on a case right now. Can we talk about this later?" Before he could reply she hung up on him.

"Ouch," Booth commented, cautiously, and slowly shuffling closer to her. Brennan turned around to face to Booth.

"What?" Brennan shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm just saying, that was kind of cold, don't you think?" Brennan continued walking.

"I don't know what that means," she replied, coldly.


J Edgar Hoover Building Washington D.C.

Booth entered the interrogation room, carrying a file in his left hand, and his right, moving his jacket in a way that the boy could see his gun. The boy, Todd Able, gasp quietly and looked at Booth. The fear in his eyes becoming more obvious. Booth sat down in the seat opposite to Todd and placed the file in front of him, closed.
"What's this?" Todd asked. Whatever it was he knew it wasn't good.

"What do you think?" Booth asked. The boy sank deeper into his seat and turned his attention to Booth.

"Did I do something wrong?" he asked, but the words that came out was almost a whisper. He was afraid. Maybe he did know what happened.

"I don't know, did you?" It was then, that Booth open the file to reveal a the body of Kelly Leers.

"Oh god," Todd looked away.

"Why are you showing me that Thing?" Booth looked at him in disgust.

"That Thing, is Kelly Leers," Todd's eyes widened in shock, and his body froze.

"You mean, Kelly's dead?" Todd's back straightened.

"You really are quite a smart kid aren't you,Todd?" Todd looked at Booth, and that fear became more obvious.

"You think I did this? Booth stared at Todd and shrugged Are you nuts?"

"You're not under arrest, we're here to just ask you some questions about her," Todd calmed down a bit, and relaxed his shoulders in relief.

"Yeah, okay, I can do that,"

"So, what can you tell me about Kelly?" Booth's arms crossed, leaning back in his chair.

"Uh, we've been friends since elementary school, and we've been going out for a few months now," Todd cleared his throat and tucked his arms under his armpits, making his muscles bulge out more.

"Any problems between the two of you? Any family members, or friends have who didn't agree to this? Jealousy?"

"No, not that I can think of," Todd cleared his throat again.

"Could I get you a glass of water?" Booth rose from his seat.

"Uh, sure, yeah, sure, I guess so, yeah, I could use a drink,"

"Okay, just sit tight," Booth quickly shuffled out of the room and headed towards the observation room. Booth met up with Brennan and Sweets. Sweets turned around to face Booth.


So what do you think? What's going to happen next chapter? Reviews are definitely appreciated. Otherwise why continue if people don't like it/read it?
