For her it was just another ordinary day, no special occasion. Cam walked into her office; her eyes immediately focused on something on the far end of the room. Cam smiled as she got closer and closer. It was a bouquet of roses. That was when she remembered that the ordinary day was Valentine's Day. In her mind she searched for the men that could've sent her the roses, the only one who popped to mind was Booth. She picked up the card and read

Camille, you are always on my heart, and in my mind

With love

Your father

You're father! She threw the card to the floor. Cam decided to go back to the lab, work was probably the best medicine for such a disappointment

"Baby girl!" A tall, rough, dark man was walking towards her, his arms spread

"Dad?" Cam asked as the figure started to get more familiar

"Happy Valentine's pumpkin" Mr. Soroyan hugged her daughter tightly

"You are here, at my work" It was the first time his dad had come to visit her at the lab

"Yep, I thought maybe I could stop to meet the lucky man"

"Lucky man?" She had no idea of whom his father was talking about

"Yes, where is Booth?" Mr. Soroyan searched the lab with his eyes

"Booth!" Cam hadn't told his father that Booth and her had broken up, she preferred not to tell so her family would stop bothering her "Oh Dad Booth and I ha.."

"There he is!" The man pointed at one of the doors. The top part of the body couldn't be seen, it was blocked by a bouquet of roses twice the size that Cam had received. Booth placed the roses a little lower, so his face could be seen

"How is my almost son in law?" Mr. Soroyan patted Booth in the back, making him juggle the flowers on his arms

"Mr. Soroyan?" Booth said looking slightly at the big man then at Cam. Cam gestured that she hadn't told his father that they had finished months ago

"Look he also brought you a Valentine's gift"

Booth smiled shyly, what else could he do with such a scary man in front of him?

"It has a card!" It was obvious that Mr. Soroyan was more excited than his daughter. He snapped the card from the bouquet. Booth did his best to keep him from reading it, but he failed

Mr. Soroyan started reading out loud "You know I'll always be there when you need me, just like you've been there to me. A strong rock for me to hold on to, a loyal partner, a best friend. Thank you Bones"

Cam had to bite her lip to keep herself from screaming

"Bones!" Screamed Mr. Soroyan "Who the hell is Bones! Are you cheating on my baby girl?!"

Booth started shaking and getting slowly away from the angry man, when Brennan appeared at the lab

"Somebody called me?" Brennan said. She didn't noticed the roses nor Mr. Soroyan

"You Bones?" Mr. Soroyan asked her as he looked at the card to reassure the name

"I'm Temperance Brennan but he calls me Bones" Brennan responded as she pointed to Booth "Though I never agreed to"

Booth smiled nervously

"Daddy I need to talk to you in private" Cam whisper to her dad, who was folding his hands into fits

"Can somebody tell me what's going on?" Brennan asked as she folded her arms in front of her chest

"What's going on is that this punk is cheating on my daughter!"

"Who's your daughter?" Brennan asked calmly

"Cam" Said Booth as his Adam's apple rose and fell

"Dad please!" Cam said as she started to pull on his father's jacket

"Sir, I'm not cheating on your daughter, Camille and I whe…" A strong punch stopped his words

"Dad!" Cam screamed as she got farther from his father and closer to Brennan

Both the roses and Booth where on the floor. Booth touched his jaw which was hurting "I'm okay, okay" He said as he started to get up. Brennan ran to help him get up. Mr. Soroyan straighten up his jacket and was almost pulled out of the lab by the guards, Cam went right behind him

"Booth what just happened?" Brennan said as she squinted Booth's face

"I'm not sure" Booth was rubbing his cheeks, and trying to get the roses back together

"Just leave them there, sit down on my office" Brennan suggested as she started to guide him to her office. Though he did managed to get the card

They where now sitting on her couch. Brennan was pressing ice against his jaw. He kept pushing her hand away, not that he didn't enjoyed her touching him, the problem was it was such a temptation having her that close "Okay, now tell me"

"Well, I guess Cam's dad didn't know we had broken up, he thinks I cheated on Cam" Again he pushed her hand away. Brennan brought it close again

"Why would he get that idea?" Brennan smiled slightly. Booth reached to his back pocket, pulled out a card and handed it to her. She read it and her smile grew

"Booth" A paused "Those where for me?" She was referring to the roses

He nodded "I know you don't like Valentines, but I just wanted to give you something to tell you how much you mean to me" Booth looked at her eyes, she was getting nervous so he decided to add something else to his sentence "You know, as a friend" The look in her eyes disappeared

"Thank you Booth" They smiled "I, well I also got you something"

"But you don't like Valentines"

"But you do" Brennan said, getting a sweet smile from Booth. She stood up to get something from her office; she picked up a rectangle package and sat back on the couch

"Here" She said handing him the box

"What's this?" Booth said smiling, and turning the box in his hands

"Open it" Brennan almost demanded. He did so, pulling out of the box Brennan's latest book, that was to be released in a week. The cover of the book was dark like most of her other books, he turned the book and there was Brennan like in most of her books, but when he opened the book he found something that didn't come in the other books. Booth read

You know I'll always be there when you need me, just like you've been there to me.

A strong rock for me to hold on to, a loyal partner, a best friend.

Thanks Booth

Tears formed in the corners of his eyes, he whipped them off quickly. Brennan had dedicated a book to him, and the dedication was personal, was deep and sweet

"You like it?" Brennan asked as she held her bottom lip between her teeth

Booth took the time to look at her, really look at her "It's the best Valentine's gift ever Bones, thank you"

She released the lip and smiled back, letting him cover her with his arms in a big nothing to do with a guy hug.
