Chapter 36: Story Time

Booth had asked Brennan to keep herself free on Saturday night.

Brennan was intrigued by what Booth had planned for them.

Right now Booth and Brennan were sitting in Brennan's apartment.

"You know that I will have to convince Kate first right?" Brennan said with a sigh.

Talking to Kate about going out without her had been very difficult for Brennan. Kate always had the fear of being abandoned just like Brennan had.

"If you prefer I would like to do it." Booth said.

"Are you sure? It's really difficult to make her understand though. She thinks that I'm going to leave her." Brennan said.

Booth got up from the couch and made his way to Kate's room.

"Don't worry about it." Booth said with a smile.

"Missy what's up?" Booth asked Kate on entering her room.

Instinctively Kate looked up at the ceiling.

Booth controlled his laugh and asked, "What are you doing there?"

"I'm picking up a story for mommy to read to me." Kate said.

"Kate superman wants to ask you a favor will you please do it?" Booth asked.

"What's a favor?" Kate asked as she sat on the bed next to Booth.

"Its doing something selfless for someone just because you want to help them or because you love them." Booth said.

"You loves me." Kate said.

"More than you know!" Booth said with a huge grin.

"So even I loves you." Kate said, "so I will do the favor."

"Missy listen to me first. This Friday night your mommy and I will go out for sometime okay. So how about you stay with you aunt Angie for sometime? She will come here and put you to bed just like we do" Booth asked.

"Can I come too?" Kate asked.

"No missy it's a big people's place and it is very boring." Booth said.

"Is you gonna leave me?" Kate said and her eyes watered breaking Booth's heart.

"Katherine listen to me your mommy and I are never ever going to leave you. We love you so so much. You are the most important part of our lives." Booth said caressing Kate's head.

"Then why..?" Kate asked confused.

"Kate if I tell you you can't tell anyone. It's a big girl secret." Booth said.

"Pinky Promise I not tell." Kate replied extending her pinky out and taking Booth's large hand with her other small hand, removing his pinky finger and crossing it with hers. Booth chuckled at that.

"Ohkay. I ahm tahking your mommy ouht tooh tellh her how much I lhove herh." Booth whispered loudly.

"Ohkay." Kate said smiling widely.

That's when Brennan made her way to Kate's room. Booth of them looked at her and smiled nervously like a deer caught in headlights.

"What?" Brennan asked.

"Nothing." Both of them replied too quickly.

"Mommy I know which story I wanna hear!" Kate said and moved and settled herself in Booth's lap and rested her head against his chest.

"Which baby?" Brennan said and took a place on the bed next to Booth.

"Yours and supa-man's" Kate said excitedly.
