A/N: Thank you once again for the wonderful reviews. They made my day. I hope this chapter won't be to sappy, I've been struggling with it. My apologies for keeping you waiting, I've started my senior year in high school and it's been very hectic so far, not with homework but with the bad management of my school but that's a boring, long and frustrating (at least for me) story again my apologies! Thank you tobeaglelvr93for beta'ing

Disclaimer: I don't own Bones, I don't own any of the songs I used/use. Story's mine though.

Dinner had been great, with light conversation a, a little bickering and much to Booth's surprise amazing food. 'Who knew that Bones could actually cook' he thought. After dinner they went to the living room, taking a bottle of red wine and two glasses with them. They both sat down, Booth putting his arm around her.

"So Bones how long have you been, you know.." Booth said trailing off.
"Madly in love with you?" She asked only half joking, she turned her head so she could look at him. He nodded, smiling at her choice of words.

"Well I think I've known it on some level ever since we first met but I've only come to accept and acknowledge it with this whole Gravedigger thing, I didn't want to die not knowing if it could've worked and you not knowing how I felt about you. I want you to know that I trust you with my life but more importantly with my heart."

"I never knew Bones, I'm glad you have that much faith in me it means more to me than I could ever tell you, and I promise you that I won't put your trust to shame." He said looking her in the eye.

"I know" she said smiling at him as she snuggled a little closer to him, putting her head in the crook of his neck. They stayed like this for a while, neither of them speaking or moving. They simply enjoyed the comfort they took out of each others company.

As time flied by, Bones got tired and a yawn escaped her.

"I think that's my cue to leave" Booth said

"Why?" she asked sleepily

"You're obviously tired" he said smiling at her planting a kiss on her head.

"True but why don't you just stay with, I find it comforting having you next to me" she said smiling back at him.

"Is that so Dr Brennan? I can't blame you, I am after all very good company" he said grinning at her.

She simply rolled her eyes at him and took him by the hand leading him towards her bedroom.

When she thought Booth was sleeping she whispered; "I love you too" and kissed him lightly on the cheek then snuggling closer to him, letting sleep take her over. Booth couldn't help but smiling silently, 'she'll be able to tell me soon enough' and with thought he, too, drifted into a content sleep.

The next day Booth woke up to see a smiling Bones lying next to him.

"Good morning" he said his voice thick with sleep.

"Good morning to you too." She said smiling softly at him. She than lied back down and put her head on his shoulder, he responded by laying his arm protectively around her.

'What time is it?" he asked

"Someone where around 8'ish, but for once I don't really care" He smiled and kissed the top of her head, pleased with this change of heart from his partner.

"Who are you and what did you do with my workaholic Bones?" he asked teasing her.

"I don't.."
"Know what that means" Booth said finishing her sentence "I had a feeling you would say that it means that I'm surprised, pleasantly I might add, that you choose lying here with me over work" He said smiling at her yet again.
She simply smiled back at him.

"Hmm I could get used to this" Booth said surprised he had really said that out loud and to his big surprise she answered; "Yeah me too"

"Booth would you like to go out with me Saturday?" she asked a little shy.

"I would love to Bones but I have Parker Saturday."

"Yes I knew that, you told me two days ago that's actually why I asked. If it's ok with you and Parker I would like to go out with both if you, if you don't mind sharing the little time you have with him that is." She asked nervously, she wanted to get to know Booth's son something she never thought possible. But she knew Parker was important to Booth and she really liked Parker the boy had left a good impression on her, even though she hadn't seen him often.

"I would love that Bones" he said beaming at her. He doubt there could be a more perfect way to spend his Saturday than with the two people that meant the most to him, his son and the love of his life.

"Do you think Parker would like that as well?" she asked still unsure.

"Trust me Bones, he will love the idea. He's been asking about you ever since that Christmas lock up." He said grinning as he thought back about the events of that day. "You and your assistant made quite the impression on my son especially you"

"As did he" she smiling softly

"You have no idea how much that means to me, Bones. You couldn't have suggested anything more perfect, there's absolutely no better way to spend my time than with you and Parker. You're by far the most amazing person I have ever met." He said kissing her gently, to let her know that she did something important, something great that she was more than he could ever have hoped for. He pulled her even closer to him, making her feel loved and secure two things she hadn't felt ever since her parents disappeared. Maybe this relationship stuff wasn't so bad and maybe she wasn't all that bad at it either. She smiled at that thought.
Their peaceful moment was interrupted by the ringing of her cell phone.

"Brennan" she said answering the phone

"Hi Bren it's Angela, I noticed you weren't at the lab yet so I called to check if you were ok." Angela said

"Hi Ange, I'm not feeling so great could you tell Cam I'm taking a sick day?" she said trying to sound ill.

"Yeah right honey, you never call in sick. I guess that means that Booth is there and that things went well yesterday" Angela said excited.

"To tell you the truth Ange, you're right. I promise you I will share the details with you, tomorrow at lunch."

"You better! I'll tell Cam you're sick now go enjoy that nice piece of FBeye candy"

"Thank you Angela and I'll ignore your last comment" she said rolling her eyes, Angela really did have a one track mind.

"Love you honey"

"You too Ang"

"Now all you have to do is call Cullen and tell him that you're sick." She said to Booth after she put the phone down.

'Yup, his partner was full of surprises.' Booth thought and with that he dialled his boss' number.
