I know, I know...late again.
I passed out on Tuesday and I was tired and had a headache on Wednesday. Thursday...i tried. I tried to type.

Enjoy!
The car ride back to the Jeffersonian was silent and not a comfortable silence either. It was more of an 'I think I just messed everything up between us' silence. Both Booth and Brennan were shocked at how much they liked it. Booth had thought he moved on and Brennan felt something in that kiss that freaked her out.
Booth pulled up to the Jeffersonian and turned to look at Brennan.
"I have to go over to the Hoover to check something out, but I'll pick you up tomorrow at around 10 so that you can talk to the lady about the kids. After that we can go talk to the teacher. Okay?" Booth didn't really need to check anything out, but he knew that Brennan would want to talk to Angela about the kiss.
"Okay, that's fine with me. I'll be here when you get me. And Booth? Thanks for being there." Brennan didn't want Booth to think that she was mad at him for the kiss. She didn't know what she was feeling, but she knew it wasn't anger. She really needed to talk to Angela.

Brennan had gone straight to Angela when she got to the lab. Angela could tell something was up, so they went to Brennan's office.
"Okay Sweetie, spill. Now. I know you're hiding something."
Brennan looked around her room for a few seconds before settling her eyes at Angela. "Booth kissed me." Angela's jaw dropped and then became a huge smile.
"Sweetie. That's great! When? Where? Was it amazingly awesome?"
"It was when we were leaving Miss. Edwards's office. I had gotten the file on Alice Wonderfield's foster siblings and the things that they have been through...Anyway, Booth saw how distraught I was and then I started rambling. The next thing I know, Booth's lips are on mine and I think I liked it." Brennan couldn't look at Angle by the time she was done talking.
"Bren, that's great! Well, not the part about the kids, but the kissing part is! That means he still has feelings for you. I know you still have feelings for him, so don't even try to tell me that you don't." Angela was so happy for her best friend. As soon as this talk was over, she had a congratulatory phone call to make to one special FBI agent.
"I don't know Ange. After the whole Hannah thing..." Brennan wasn't so sure that Booth still had feelings for her, but she hoped so. 'What? Since when do I wish Booth still had feelings for me? Do I have feelings for him?'
"Brennan. I can clearly see that you have a lot on your mind right now, so I'm just going to go. But first, a few words of advice. Don't use your mind on this. Use your heart. Booth loves you and you love him. Don't let him go." With that, Angela left to make a phone call. Brennan didn't know what to think. She hoped Angela was right, that Booth still had feelings for her. She sat on her couch for a while, just thinking about how much she liked the kiss. The more she thought about it, the more she wanted it to happen again. She looked at the clock to see that I was 9:47. Brennan was surprised that she managed to sit and just think for a good hour and a half. Then, she got an idea. Before she could change her mind, she grabbed her purse and left the lab. 'I wasn't doing anything productive anyway.'

When Booth got back to the Hoover after dropping Brennan off at the lab, he tried to do some work. After a half hour of getting nothing done, he decided that he was going home. The normal work day was done, so it didn't really matter. He got home at around eight and decoded to have so mac and cheese for dinner. 'This isn't anything like Bones's, but it would have to do for now. Once he was done eating and cleaning his few dishes, he decided to go watch some TV before heading to bed. After 20, minutes of sitting in front of the TV, thinking about the kiss, there was a knock on his door. Booth got up, looked through the peephole and was surprised at who he saw.
An: I know it's shortish, but I wanted to put something up.
Review? Please?
