BRENNAN'S POV:
"Tell me everything!" Angela proclaimed as she made her way to the table I'd acquired in the canteen that morning "I was desperate to ring you last night but Mom and Dad said I had to study and then it got too late and, anyway, tell me everything!"
"There's nothing to tell." I replied
"What?" she questioned
"There's nothing to tell." I informed her
"Seriously?" she asked, raising an eyebrow at me
I nodded my head… "Seriously."
"So what happened when you went over?" she inquired
"We talked." I replied
"So no juicy details for you to spill?" she questioned
I shook my head… "Sorry, Ange."
SEELEY'S POV:
Jack and I made our way into the canteen, finding Temperance and Angela talking at a table and made our way over, a smile emitting on my face as I brushed my hand across her shoulders gently, her body shivering under my touch as I took a seat next to her…
"Hi." she greeted me
"Hi." I mirrored "How are you?"
"Good, how are you?" she asked
"Good." I informed her, smiling at her warmly "So, what were you two talking about then?"
"Nothing special." she replied as she shot a glance at Angela
"Actually," Angela proclaimed "we were talking about what happened when Bren came over to your place last night."
"We talked." I informed her
"Now do you believe me?" Temperance inquired as I sat back in my seat and draped my arm over her chair
"No," she replied "no I don't, because you're both acting differently and I want to know why."
"How are we acting differently?" I questioned
"Your arm's around her chair, your hand so close you could brush your fingers up and down her arm if you wanted to. Bren blushed when I asked her about what happened, and you're both acting all coy now. I know you did something more than talk." she informed me
"I know you're my best friend, Ange, but I don't have to tell you everything." Temperance admitted "At least not right away."
"So something did happen?" she inquired
TEMPERANCE'S POV:
"So something did happen?"
I glanced at Seeley and swallowed a lump in my throat before nodding my head… "Yes, something happened. But that's all you're getting. And on that note, I'm off to class."
"I'll walk you." Seeley informed me as I rose to my feet
I smiled at him warmly and collected my things together, the two of us leaving the canteen…
"I'm sorry." I sighed as we made our way down the corridor
"What for?" he asked
"Telling Angela." I replied "She just wouldn't let up until she found out whether something actually did happen or not."
"It's fine." he assured me "I'm surprised you're not shouting about it from the rooftops."
"Think a lot of yourself, don't you?" I inquired, smirking at him as I spoke
"Most girls aren't able to keep quiet about me kissing them, but you're not most girls." he replied
"I'm glad you realise that." I informed him "And just so you know, I won't be shouting anything about our relationship from the rooftops and you want to know why?"
"Why?" he asked
"Because what goes on between us, that should just be ours. Don't you agree?" I questioned
He swallowed a lump in his throat and nodded his head… "Yeah."
I smiled at him warmly… "But here's me talking about a relationship and we've not even spoken about what's going on between us, which is probably something we should do."
"Yeah, I agree." he admitted "How about we head to the diner after school?"
I nodded my head… "Seeley Booth, are you asking me out on a date?"
"Maybe." he replied
I smiled at him warmly… "I've got my car with me, so I'll meet you out front at 3pm, and drive us there?"
"Okay." he informed me
"Okay." I mirrored
They're going on a date, and Temperance isn't willing to tell even her best friend about what happened between her and Seeley – could that maybe cause problems?
