Been up all night staring at you
Wondering what's on your mind
I've been this way with so many before
But this feels like the first time
You want the sunrise to go back to bed
And I want to make you laugh

Mess up my bed with me
Kick off the covers I'm waiting
Every word you say I think
I should write down
Don't want to forget come daylight

Happy to lay here
Just happy to be here
I'm happy to know you
Play me a song
Your newest one
Please, leave your taste on my tongue
Paperweight on my back
Cover me like a blanket

And no need to worry
That's wasting time
And no need to wonder
What's been on my mind…
It's you
It's you
It's you…

I give up
I let you win
You win 'cause I'm not counting…
You made it back

To sleep again
Wonder what you're dreaming

Paperweight by Amanda Seyfreid and Josh Radin (cute little song)

Booth, Bones and Allie moved into their new house last week and last night it was just the three of them. Parker would come over next weekend. Allie was crawling around like a mad woman, Booth likened her to a runaway train and Bones only rolled her eyes at the analogy.

Though, that was last night. Now it was four forty seven in the morning and Bones and Booth were in bed. They had, had quite a work out last night and now Booth was asleep. Brennan was curled up into his chest. She drew lazy circles on his arm and traced his fingers in a methodical manner. She was happy just to be.

Her eyes were open yet she kept silent as she watched him breathe. Since he had returned she caught herself watching him sleep a lot. It had become a habit and she didn't plan on breaking it. She would often wonder what he was dreaming, what was on his mind?

Though, right now she brushed her fingers lightly over his forehead and pulled her hand back smirking when he absentmindedly batted at her hand in his sleep. Her lips turned up into a smile and she whispered. "I love you."

Then she snuggled back onto his chest and watched as his steady breathing lifted her up and down, up and down. His lips twitched every now and then as did his eye lashes. As she smiled she heard a low rumble, "Bones, is Al still asleep?"

She only looked into his eyes and nodded yes. She lay back on the pillow and he rolled over holding himself above her for a second. He studied her face, her lips. Her eyes were a deep indigo, and they looked like their daughters. That starry haze of deep emotion, it filled her irises that looked up into his. He leaned down and kissed her slowly, she smiled into his mouth returning the deep kiss filled with a perfected cadence. "I don't want to get up." Brennan said as the inevitable morning starting to filter into their room.

Booth kissed her forehead and then her flat stomach making silly noises like he did to Allie's stomach, he called them raspberries. Brennan called him crazy. Then again, he called her the same. Though, it tickled her stomach and she started to laugh. Booth loved that sound and it made warmth flood his world. God he loved her.

Been up all night staring at you
Wondering what's on your mind
I've been this way with so many before
But this feels like the first time
You want the sunrise to go back to bed
And I want to make you laugh

Brennan was laughing her head tossed back as Booth kissed her stomach and blew wet raspberries on it. "Stop! Booth you're crazy!" Brennan begged in between laughing and fending him off. Booth looked up at her with a devilish grin.

"Bones…" he trailed off her name a whisper on his lips. She looked down at him her irises changing from dark blue to light to indigo littered with specks of turquoise. She tilted her head to the side answering him without words. He leaned up toward her and kissed her shoulder and then started to trail kisses down her clavicle. Smiling she kissed his shoulder and then his neck as she murmured her delights back into his warm skin.

"Booth…"

"Hhhmm?" he asked as he kissed her chest and made his way up her neck.

"I love you." She stammered out in between kisses.

He grabbed her head in his hands and kissed her only pulling apart for a breather, he exhaled, "I know." His hands ran up the back of her neck and through her hair grabbing at it and fisting it in his hands. She arched her back and kissed him harder. Exhaling she spoke, but he couldn't make out anything but his last name as two loves melted together. A room so silent and ever still, but the bed a tornado of emotion as two became one on a different morning, again, under a different sunrise.

Mess up my bed with me
Kick off the covers I'm waiting
Every word you say I think
I should write down
Don't want to forget come daylight

Brennan lay bare-chested on top of Booth's own bare chest. Her arms were folded and her head was lying on his chest, she could hear his heart. She picked up her head and looked up at him. She smiled at his sleepy face and messy hair. She took her bottom lip in her mouth. Booth looked at her his hands behind his head now her atop him looking down into his eyes. Mommy Bones, he smiled. Brennan leaned up and kissed him slowly as her finger tips traced his shoulders. He ran his hands tenderly through her hair. She turned her head sideways and smiled at him placing a quick kiss on the side of his lips.

"Booth, I'm not jealous anymore." Brennan smiled and Booth looked confused.

"What are you talking about Bones?" he asked as she nestled her head back onto her folded arms and looked at him as she spoke.

She inhaled and exhaled her chest rising and falling as he lay underneath her, enamored by the depths of the indigo eyes that stared into his chocolate ones. "I use to be jealous of you, Angela, Cam and even Daisy and Sweets. I'm not anymore." She smiled brightly.

"Why is that?"

"I believe in love now. I believe in transcendent and eternal."

Booth looked surprised, "Do you?"

Her brows furrowed, "I learned that loving someone is hard to do, but it's worth it. It hurts worse than anything I have ever felt, love hurts. I let you in right before you left and it was painful, probably the most pain I have ever felt. I let my guard down and gave in to all I never believed in…It wasn't easy, yet I did it. As you say, I took a leap of faith. Though, I think I just needed to feel you as close to me as I could that night. So yes I do."

"I knew you would come around." Booth joked placing a kiss on her forehead, nose and then lips.

"Booth, do you think…" Brennan stopped herself from speaking any further.

"What? What is it Bones?" Booth asked as he watched her think about something.

"Nothing…nevermind."

"Tell me." Booth cocked his head sideways in wonder and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear. He watched as her mind struggled back and forth with a final decision.

She exhaled, "Do you think…." She trailed off again; Booth noted that she looked nostalgic. He was squinting as he tried to read what was about to come out of her mouth. "Do you think...that, that maybe…we will be together… that we will love each other, eternally?" Brennan asked her eyes were almost confused. Booth only smiled.

Happy to lay here
Just happy to be here
I'm happy to know you
Play me a song
Your newest one
Please, leave your taste on my tongue
Paperweight on my back
Cover me like a blanket

"I have no doubts Bones. No doubts." He said smiling at her. She smiled back leaning forward to place a kiss on his lips.

"You are always so sure of everything Booth."

"Nah, that's not true. But I'm sure about this…" he nodded back and forth from him to her. "…us. I'm sure about that."

"How?"

"It's a special agent thing Bones."

"Really? I'm unsure about that Booth." She said and he chuckled.

"No not really baby."

Mess up my bed with me
Kick off the covers i'm waiting
Every word you say I think
I should write down
Don't want to forget come daylight

"Booth?"

"Hhmm?"

"I'm glad you're home and not in Afghanistan anymore. I like seeing you not just in my dreams….and so does Allie." Brennan said smiling.

"I'm glad I'm home too Bones, very glad." She smiled laying her head on his chest nuzzling him.

And no need to worry
That's wasting time
And no need to wonder
What's been on my mind
It's you
It's you
It's you

Booth smoothed her hair back and brushed his hands through it while she lay content as a purring kitten on his chest. They were just enjoying them, enjoying being. Neither wanted to speak for the stillness of the room was too grand, their bodies tangled in each other too much of a painting. The moment was precious and Allie could wake any minute.

Every word you say I think
I should write down
Don't want to forget come daylight

Brennan's voice was a whisper, "Although, in retrospect it was quite simple to let you in Booth. Probably because, I did it years ago…" She lifted her head to look at him. "…I just never allowed myself to acknowledge it. I love you Booth and I love Allie...you won my love or heart. I'm unsure on how the saying goes. Although, I did have a wise woman, Annie our regular waitress at the Royal Diner, tell me another saying that I found appropriate for the situation we found ourselves in. Did I tell you Annie passed away?"

"Yeah, the first day we went back to the dinner. What did she tell you?"

"Not to count the miles, count the 'I love yous.'"

Booth smiled, leaned up and kissed Brennan's forehead, nose and then lips. Parting he said, "She was a wise woman."

"She was. She is another reason why I wanted to name Al, Allie. It sounded like Annie and Annie helped me through some things while you were away and while I was pregnant. When she was younger she had two sons while her husband was in Vietnam." Brennan smiled in thought. "Parker was very upset one day and she helped him. He couldn't believe there were no cell phones when she was our age."

Booth and she were quiet a moment until they heard some cries coming from the other room. Brennan inhaled, kicked off the covers and rolled off of Booth. Grabbing her robe she went to get Allie. It was go time… baby girl was up. She brought her back into their bed and handed her to Booth. He proceeded to sit her on his chest and make her fall into hysterics with his silly daddy voices and kisses. Bones only shook her head at him.

Brennan looked at Booth with Al and smiled a bright smile. She was happy, she loved and was loved. Angela once said you aren't really someone until you give your heart away and make somebody else someone too. Brennan had done it, and done it tenfold. Smiling she laid her head in the crook of Booth's shoulder as he lifted Al up in the air and back down her eyes followed their little girl. Today was not a good day, no, today was a great day.

I give up
I let you win
You win 'cause I'm not counting
You made it back
To sleep again
Wonder what you're dreaming…
