AN: The song is "Is she really going out with him?" by Joe Jacks. He he he, I had to mess with Booth a little..
Chapter 13 Is She Really Going Out with Him?
Pretty women out walkin' with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm starin' while my coffee goes cold
Booth shook his head as the conversation within a song began.
Look over there
(Where?)
There!
There's a lady that I used to know
She's married now or engaged or somethin', so I'm told
"Bones?"
"Shhhh, Booth! You'll miss the chorus." Temperance began to sing along, stifling her laughter as Booth became more flustered.
"Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here"
"Bones, I didn't mean… don't take everything so seriously!" Booth was cut off again as Temperance joined in again, shouting the words and pointing her finger haphazardly around the car.
"Look over there
(Where?)
There!"
Temperance didn't know how much longer she could keep up the charade before bursting into laughter. Booth seemed so worried that she was angry or worse, had thrown away everything he'd confessed that night.
Here comes Jeannie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don't count for much and so there goes your proof
Booth racked his brain for a solution to this dilemma, how to get Bones comfortable again. I moved too fast, pushed to hard! Why would I think a bunch of silly love songs would change anything?
"Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here"
"Temperance-" he tried again, failing miserably if he correctly interpreted the glare she sent toward him. Ironic, he thought as the next verse began.
But if looks could kill
There's a man there who's marked down as dead
Cause I had my fill
"Patience, Booth, I have something to say… in just a minute." Temperance's eyes sparkled unnaturally as she noticed Booth's hand slipping on the steering wheel as he set his jaw, steadied himself. Is he actually sweating? I'm a better actress than I thought, she thought triumphantly as the chorus played again.
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here
"The answer is yes."
"Yes to what, Bones?" His confusion was growing as quickly as his frustration. Temperance decided he'd suffered enough.
"Is she really gooing out with him? The answer is yes." Booth let out a heavy sigh as he pulled the SUV into the hotel parking lot, signaling an end to their interesting, somewhat tumultous journey. Choosing a spot near the back, away from the hotel's lights they were soon enveloped in darkness with only the light of the moon lighting the car. Turning off the engine, Booth unbuckled his belt and turned to her with questions in his serious brown eyes.
"Really?"
"I've got you." She confirmed, leaning toward him. A quick charm smile appeared.
"And I've got you." The kiss was long and sweet in the dark car, far from the view of the musical mastermind who was, at that very moment, wondering when Bones would arrive.
Angela picked up her phone, pressing the speed dial and waiting impatiently.
Somewhere, downstairs in the parking lot, in a steamy black SUV a certain anthropologist's phone began to ring a very distinctive ringtone selected by the caller herself.
Temperance groaned audibly sending shivers down Booth's back as Fergie sang out "G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S!!!"
"I'm gonna kill Angela." Booth grumbled.
"Me first," bargained Temperance flipping over the phone, "Brennan."
"Sweetie!" Brennan winced at her best friend's cheerful voice, knowing the artist would want to talk. Meanwhile, Booth plugged in his iPod and selected a single song.
Everything changes in the face of the moon
END Chapter
