It had been a couple of hours since Booth had dropped Brennan off at her apartment and Parker at his mother house for the night, though he smiled knowing tomorrow his son would be spending a few days with him. When he dropped her off at her apartment she happily said goodbye to the little boy telling him she hoped to see him soon, but to her now boyfriend all she uttered was a simple 'good bye'. Her cold exit made him shiver and knew it was his job to make it right, though he knew she needed her space and he had all night to think about it.

He walked around his apartment looking for something to do, his bills had been paid the dishes had been washed and their wasn't a case to keep him busy, so he settled on the couch and turned on the television. His mind instantly focused on the comedic program.

Brennan had nothing to do, she would usually spend her time with Booth, which at this moment she clearly did not want to be near him. She couldn't understand how someone would say those types of things to the person, she just couldn't believe what he had said to her. She paced her apartment picking things up and unconsciously stacking them, she needed someone to talk to, and usually that person would be Booth but instead she decided to call her best friend

"Sweetie"

"hey Ange, I need to talk to you" she sighed "Since Booth and I got together I don't know whether to start taking him serious and-" her sentenced was cut off by her puzzled best friend

"wait … what?…you and Booth?" she asked

"oh, im sorry I forgot to tell you, its only been a couple of days" she said "that's not the point" she continued " he used to make fun of me and I wouldn't care but now that we are together and.."

"sweetie its okay to feel that way, just remember that Booth will always be their for you, he loves you"

"but im just not sure what to do"

"let him come to you, hes bound to realize what he did was wrong"

"are you sure" Brennan asked a bit skeptically

"im sure, I have a question though" she said in a playful tone " how's our FBI in bed?"

"Ange"

"oh c'mon, I have some time, Hodgins and James are outside" she said a bit forcefully

"however you imagine" she replied "Angela I have to go the other line is beeping"

"alright ill talk to you later"

She hung up the phone and noticed it was the Jeffersonian

"hello?" she asked into the line "a body, yes ill be their soon" she was about to click off when the voice in the phone requested Booth to aid her in the investigation "yes ill be their in a bit" she clicked off the phone calling her Partner immediately

They were on their way to the crime scene, the ride seemed long for both of them until he broke the silence

"listen im very sorry about all of this" he glanced to her direction and noticed she didn't seem so angry anymore

"its fine" she said " I think I may have overreacted, im willing to put this in the past if you are"

"absolutely

They arrived at the crime scene and fell into their normal routine. When Brennan made her way towards the body many of her interns were surprised to see her, they were all told that she had taken a vacation and wouldn't be back for another week. They all worked together to collect the evidence efficiently to impress their boss.

The evidence was gathered Booth had taken his notes and the intern rode back to the Jeffersonian in their own cars.

Booth leaned against the truck

"hey honey, we need to get back to the lab so you can work" he said sweetly

She smiled and entered the SUV smiling for the entire ride. At first she was convinced that their new relationship was going to work, Booth was alpha male of course, but her mind was beginning to change.

They arrived at the museum and she got right to work. Booth had insisted that he would stay here with her until it was time to go. He made himself comfortable on her couch and drifted of to sleep.

Besides Booths insisting that she needed to stop working so hard, or his suggestions for her to eat she had been working all night which was slowly becoming morning

Brennan worked with her interns tirelessly, she noticed all 17 of her interns had yawned at least once which made her aware of the time

"Dr. Brennan" one of the interns called out

"yes"

"I found this bullet embedded in the victims mandible" he said holding up the bullet "their might be more evidence at the rime scene"

"ill inform my partner, please continue to clean the bones and continue the usual protocol" she said clinically

"Nope we are not going out to a crime scene at 3:30 in the morning" he said as he climbed up the platform pointing to his black watch

"But Booth evidence needs to be collected" she said snapping off her gloves

"No, we can go tomorrow after you have gotten some sleep and food" he replied

"yes we will" she replied sternly

"Bones, lets go home and sleep, ill take you to the crime scene tomorrow morning, its going to be to dangerous"

"Booth our work is dangerous, we put criminals away!"

"no, lets go home!, tomorrow we can go out and look for evidence, I dont want you getting sick"

She was at loss for words her anger getting the best of her, instead of fighting it more she turned and began her walk towards her office, clearly she would be going home. His stubbornness got the best of him she thought as she flipped the light switch off. She closed her door and saw her stubborn partner standing in front of the glass sliding doors

"c'mon Bones you need to sleep" he said in a harsh tone

"I knew this wasn't going to work" she muttered as she angrily made her way towards the glass doors
