Caught

He knew where the motions sensor security lights where. He took care to avoid those most likely to wake the sleeping occupants of the house as he led his partner through the yard toward their desired destination.

"Shh, we don't want to wake anyone." He whispered, when she bumped into him from behind. They righted themselves and continued on, being careful not to drop their supplies and cause any further noise, at least until they were a little further from the sleeping quarters.

"Ok" he spoke softly "We're away from their bedrooms, we should be safe here as long as we don't make too much noise." They approached the pool with its colored underwater lights, and strategically placed spotlights in the plantings around the pool, and on the waterfall at the far end of the pool.

The setting really was quite romantic. The sound of the waterfall and the crickets in the night along with the limited lighting did set the mood. He turned to face her before stripping off his clothes, then nodding to her said. "Your turn." A smile spread across his face as she shed her clothes and began walking toward him.

They joined hands and descended the steps into the pools together. It'd been particularly hot lately, so even this late in the night the water was still very warm. As he tugged her closer to the waterfall he said, "I've wanted to do this pretty much from the first time I saw this pool at night. I've especially been thinking about it lately. He seems to know every time we're about to do anything."

The words had barely left his mouth when they heard the crying coming from the handheld receiver for the baby monitor. Brennan had left it on the lounge chair along with their towels. Booth groaned as he touched his forehead to hers and said "I can't even skinny dip with my own wife in our own pool without being caught before the act."
