A/N: My apologies for the delay. A friend of mine died last weekend and I've been processing. But now, I am missing my fans and ready to write with flair again!

Disclaimer: I don't own Bones but being the middle of a DB and TJT sandwich would be very warm in this freaking Michigan cold!

The color drained from Temperance's face. "What? He wants me…..to engage in sexual relations…..with both of you?"

Hannah was laughing inside. Brennan's reaction was better than she figured. "Yes….see, I told him this would make you uncomfortable, but he said you were his best friend and he wanted the first time to be with someone he trusted and respected."

Of all the things Brennan thought Hannah would say this was not what she expected. Of course, a small part was flattered as she knew she was beautiful and men desired her. To have Booth trust her was a big thing after all they went though the last year.

However, a big part of her was devastated. First he didn't want her anymore, but then he wanted to have sex with her and his girlfriend…one of her friends. She didn't know how to feel. For years, she chided him for his prudish attitude towards sex. When he finally discusses exploring his options, it was after she told him about her feelings for him and his following rejection.

She knew it was not rational, but the fact he only wanted to have sex with her while also engaging with another woman and after he turned her down was hurtful. One could say he was an insensitive asshole. 'Why would he do this to her now?'

All Brennan knew was she had to get out of there now before she lost her feces. "Hannah I'm…I'm going to have to think about this. I have to go now."

Brennan got up, barely remembering to grab her bag and took off from the restaurant. When Brennan got to her car, she sat in it and cried.

When Hannah saw that Temperance was out of sight, she laughed and toasted herself. The waitress came to the table. "Is Dr. Brennan okay? She and Agent Booth never leave a drink unfinished."

Hannah was miffed that the waitress didn't remember her habits after being in here with Booth enough. "She's fine!" She guzzled the remainder of her wine. "I want a refill"

When the waitress was looking towards the exit, Hannah got pissed. "Waitress!" When the girl turned around, Hannah almost shoved the glass in her face. "Refill. Now. Or is that too much to comprehend?"

The waitress stiffly grabbed her glass and left the table. Hannah sat back and smiled. She needed to get back to the office, but she felt she deserved a reward for a job well done. She began to hum to herself Dixie as she got her phone out.

Two hours later, Brennan walked through the door with her face still tear-streaked. After she threw her bag down, she went into her bedroom to change. As she entered her living room, she heard knocking. Ignoring it, she almost sat down when she heard a voice.

"Temperance, it's Andrew."

Brennan continued to ignore it, but when the knocking continued, she knew he was aware she was there. Quickly wiping her face to disguise the face she had been crying, she went to the door, looked through the Judas hole, and opened it.

"Temperance, I went to the lab and I have been looking all over for you."

"Why, Andrew? We didn't have plans tonight." Brennan said while attempting to not sound rude. The fact that he was carrying a bottle of red wine did not escape her.

"Because I wanted to see you. What's wrong? You seem upset. You seem to need a friend. I'm going to stay for a while."

His company she was not in the mood for, or anyone's for that matter. "Andrew, it's been a long day…"

"I'm not taking no for an answer, Temperance. Now let me in."

Brennan merely stepped aside to let Hacker in. "Can I get you anything?"

Andrew smiled one of what Brennan remembered that Booth called his 'shit eating grin'. "No, Temperance. I do have this new bottle of Beaujolais that I picked up earlier. You look like you could use it right now."

Resigned, she closed the door before taking the wine bottle. "Of course, Andrew. I'll get a couple of glasses. Please make yourself comfortable."

When Brennan disappeared into the kitchen, Hacker made sure she had her back turned behind the counter. He sprayed a spritz of Binaca in his mouth and searched his coat pocket until he pulled out three condoms. 'Can't wait to show her my new black silk boxers'

"Andrew, here's your glass."

Hacker almost dropped his condoms on the floor and barely had time to shove them into his pocket before accepting the glass of wine. "Thank you, Temperance."

"What did you just have in your pocket?"

"Oh, nothing to concern yourself with. Now, tell me what happened tonight."

Brennan chose her words carefully. "It's Hannah. We discussed something and I am not sure how to feel about it right now."

"Can you tell me? I care very deeply for you, Temperance. I want to help."

Brennan pondered for a minute then began. "Hannah asked if I wanted to engage in sexual relations with her and Booth."

Hacker could only sit and stare. "We-well, what did you say, Temperance?"

"Andrew! Booth is my best friend! It's not something that the two of us have discussed."

"Well, I have to say that if he is having his girlfriend ask his partner to do this, then there is something wrong with him."

"I-I don't know, Andrew. It's flattering, really, but a part of me feels…..like it's not proper."

Andrew scooted closer to Temperance and put his arm around her. "Of course it's not Temperance. That is disgusting and immoral. You are his partner and if he is asking you to do something like that, well, then he's not much of a partner. First thing tomorrow, I see to it you are assigned a new one."

Brennan turned and looked him in the eye. "Andrew, I will only work with Booth as I will only work with the best. If I am ever assigned another agent, I will contain my FBI assistance to the lab as it was before I started working with him."

Andrew's eyes grew dark with anger, but he kept it contained. "Of course, Temperance. Your assistance to the FBI is invaluable and I will do whatever it takes to keep you happy to be working with us. You are the best, after all."

Hacker's reaction wasn't missed with Brennan, but she kept it to herself. "Thank you, Andrew. You're right. I am." Brennan replied before the agent slid closer and his hand tickle her throat. Suddenly, warning bells went off in her head.

"Temperance, you are so beautiful and you deserve a man who will respect you. I am also very sexually attracted to you."

Before Brennan could do anything, Hacker started to kiss her as his other hand traveled close to her breast. Before he could start groping it, she stopped his hand. "Andrew, please. I am not ready for that right now in our relationship."

"Please, Temperance, you need me as much as I need you." Andrew muttered before starting to kiss down her throat.

"Andrew, stop!"

Hacker looked up and saw that he might have went too far. "I-I'm sorry, Temperance. It's just….well I find you very desirable sexually and I think we would be very compatible in that way."

"I do appreciate your interest, Andrew. I know that men find me sexually attractive. Right now, I am not in the mood for sexual intercourse. You understand?"

"Of course" His insides were hot with sexual frustration, but he knew when to let it go. "I am enjoying getting to know you better. Would you like to have dinner and see a play Friday night? Faust is playing at the National Theater."

Brennan's insides got cold. She hated that play and the theme behind it, but wanted to be nice to Andrew. "I will check my calendar tomorrow morning. Can I call you by lunch?"

"Certainly, Temperance" 'Of course tickets will be sky high by the time I hear from you. Better get them in case after my morning meeting.'

Brennan was ready to end the evening. "Well, Andrew, I need to go to bed because I was up very early this morning. You understand?"

Hacker could see she was wearing nothing underneath the pajama pants, tank top, and bathrobe. He wanted nothing more than his hand between her legs and to not go home. However, he knew that he had to tread carefully. "Yes Temperance. How about I cork this and leave it for you?"

"No Andrew, you brought it. You should take it home and enjoy it. I do appreciate you coming over though."

"Okay." He came over and moved to kiss her on her cheek, which Brennan let him do. "I will call you tomorrow, Temperance if that is all right?"

"Of course. With this case, though I am not sure when I will be home."

"I will do my best for you."

Brennan walked him to the door and saw him out. When she locked the door, she got halfway to her bedroom when something Andrew said clicked in her. Realizing she couldn't do much more tonight, she went to bed.

It was around midnight and Booth was sitting on the couch watching the last minutes of the Flyers/Kings game when he heard the door open. He turned around just as Hannah came through the entryway. "Hey Hannah. How were drinks with Bones?"

Hannah came around and kissed her boyfriend. "Good. Just catching up on what's what…you know, girl stuff. I had to leave to work on my story for tomorrow. How was work today? Temperance said you two have a hell of a case."

"We do, but Bones and I have had worse and we cracked them." Suddenly he looked to the screen. "Go go go go! Yes GOAL!"

Hannah held back her eye roll but decided she wasn't in the mood for sleep. Suddenly, she came around Booth and slid her hands down his chest until she got to his groin. "Seeley….."

Booth turned to her with a pained face. "Hannah, my back is killing me tonight."

"Seeley….." Hannah said as she began to knead his cock outside of his pants.

"Hannah, seriously, my back hurts and I'm not up for this tonight."

Hannah laughed before she walked around and got down on her knees. As she began to pull down his pants, her voice took on a sultry tone. "I think someone's up for something…"

"Maybe he is, but I'm not tonight. No, Hannah! Not tonight!" Booth said in an irritated tone before prying her hands away from him.

Hannah had a petulant look on her face. "Fine. Good night, Seeley."

After she stormed into the bedroom, Booth rolled his eyes. "Always so damn dramatic."

He got up five minutes later but when he got to his bedroom, the door was locked. "Seriously, Hannah! I don't fuck you and I'm locked out of my bedroom!"

Booth hit the door with his fist and stalked into his son's room. He laid down and prayed that the shit going on would be ending soon.

Hannah laid in bed thinking. Yes, it was childish to lock Seeley out, but she was in a good mood and had excess energy to burn. He was the best sex she ever had and planned on hanging onto him until she was sent out of the country again. She was disappointed at how domestic he was back home, but she was confident that she could hang onto him enough to get rid of Temperance Brennan. Hannah Burley has competition for no man.
