Disclaimer-Ok so I figure I should at least one proper disclaimer right? I, the writer of the fiction, hereby declare that I make no profit on the characters created by Hart Hanson, nor do claim ownership rights to anything other than the storyline and the secondary characters.
READ ME ****A/N- Before I start this chapter(this is NOT aimed at anyone in particular, I know people are trying to be helpful and that's how I take it), I want everyone to know, I have seriously tried to fix my punctuation and grammar to American standards, after all these characters are American; BUT I'm getting different information, from different people, in different parts of America and it's doing my head in, trying to please everyone. So, I'm going back to my Aussie grammar and punctuation. I do Grammar checks with Microsoft Word and it tells me that my work is perfect. I'll continue to change spelling from Aussie to American, but I want people to understand that I have honestly tried. I want my chapters out fast, which means a Beta is out of the question and I like the secrecy of no one reading my work until it's posted. Please take into account when you read that I'm not lazy or uneducated, it's just the more I try to adhere to the American way, the more issues I encounter. I hope you all, still enjoy my work.
I'm pretty sure it's still 'T'; let me know if I should change it though. I am SO nervous.
Booth walked around to the passenger side of the car, Bones had dropped her open hand bag on the floor and was picking everything up. The street lights illuminated the car a little, but Brennan smiled when the door opened and a torch light lit the interior, with bright white light.
"Thanks Booth."
"No problems Bones."
They picked everything up they could see and decided they'd check again in the morning. Booth dropped the torch onto the floor and out of view of passersby; Brennan slipped from the truck and joined him on the side walk.
The doorman, who had been watching them, opened the entry door and smiled at the happy pair as they approached.
"Dr. Brennan, Agent Booth. Good night?"
"Yes it was wonderful, thank you Ted. Angela will be down soon, could you please make sure she gets to her car ok, it's the silver van just there."
Brennan pointed to the parked vehicle behind Booths.
"Of course Dr. Brennan."
Booth pressed the button to call the elevator and it opened instantly, having simply been waiting for use.
"Good night Ted."
Ted tipped his hat at the pair and smiled as they disappeared behind, the stainless steel doors.
Booth stood directly behind his girlfriend for the ride, his arms around her waist his chin resting on her shoulder.
"Did you have fun tonight Baby?"
She smiled and turned her head to face him.
"Yes it was wonderful, but the nights not over yet and there's plenty of time for things to improve beyond, what they are."
Booth grinned stupidly.
"You have high expectations Dr. Brennan."
Brennan giggled at his professional tone.
"I do, when I see such a fine specimen of an alpha male in every aspect, I have no need to doubt his prowess in the bedroom."
Booth raised his brows, she used to rebel against his alpha ways, over time though she seemed to have embraced his 'cave man' behavior, even enjoying it on a certain level. He squeezed her against his chest and whispered seductively in her ear.
"Mmm, you have no idea."
Bones kissed his cheek, before scraping her teeth lightly along his jaw line.
"I hope to, very soon."
The door dinged open and Brennan pulled her boyfriend out and into the hall, with a giggle. They clasped their hands and stumbled toward her door, as he captured her waist again and pulled her back to his body. Booth was thankful he'd decided on jeans to wear, they hid otherwise prominent appendage growth.
Sliding his key into the lock, they opened the door and composed themselves to meet Angela. The TV was on and soft sounds of talking traveled down the hall. They entered the lounge room and waved to Ange.
"Hey guys, so... how was it?"
Brennan smiled, a dreamy look on her face, told Ange the evening had been everything she'd never experienced. Booth indicated he was going to check on Molly and tip toed off down the hall.
"So tell me Sweetie, where'd he take you? What was it like? Was it romantic?"
"I'll tell you all about it tomorrow Ange, but it was perfect; he was perfect."
Angela took her best friend's hands and squeezed them in support.
"God, I'm so thrilled for you Sweetie, and I'm so proud you've allowed this to happen."
Brennan nodded, she felt silly now, when she looked back at all the chances they'd had but ignored, all the excuses they'd made up, not to be together, when really neither wanted anything more than to never be apart again.
"Me too Ange, we couldn't have had tonight though without you, so thank you, I'm not sure how to show how much it meant, having you watch Molly."
Angela shrugged.
"You tell tomorrow how good the sex is tonight and we'll call it even."
Angela winked and grabbed her jacket from the back of the chair, as Brennan shook her head in mock indignation, at her friend's request. Booth strolled back down the hall with a smile on his face.
"Molly asked me to thank you for looking after her."
Brennan smiled.
"She's awake?"
Booth shook his head.
"Not anymore."
Angela grinned.
"Well, have fun you two; don't do anything I wouldn't do... seriously though, that leaves you wide open with choices."
Booth blushed and turned away as Brennan, giggled at his embarrassment. They said good nights and thank yous before Ange left and door was locked again.
Booth and Brennan stood awkwardly in the hall for a second or two, before Booth broke the silence.
"Come on, there's a bottle of wine in the fridge calling our names and tub begging to be used."
Brenna smiled.
"You get the wine, I'll run the bath."
Brennan enjoyed baths, she had really only discovered the love a few years ago, before that sitting in a tub seemed like a waste of time, though tonight would be something new, she had never shared a bath with anyone, the situation seeming too intimate for her liking, but as with everything else; with Booth she felt differently and was actually looking forward to sharing the large water filled space.
She lit some candles in the tiled room and turned off the overhead light, the dim glow setting a romantic ambiance for the normally bright room. Bones poured in some scented bath oil and some bubbles, inhaling the relaxing fragrance and feeling all tension leave her body.
Next thing she knew Booth was beside her, the wine and glasses on the side of the tub and he was slowly unbuttoning her blouse, as he stood behind her. Brennan allowed her head to lull back, into the crook of his neck and arched her back away from his chest, as he removed the article of clothing.
Booth's pulse paused for a beat, he'd seen her in less than she was wearing now, but there was something about seeing his girlfriend in a pure white lace and satin bra that made him thankful for the direction their lives were now taking. She wore white well, the color suiting the innocence of the woman wearing it; her milky skin no contrast to the material.
Booth dropped his lips to her bare shoulder, kissing the warm skin and leaving heated kisses on a path to her ear.
"You're so beautiful Baby."
Brennan smiled and tilted her head away from him, allowing better access to the sensitive flesh below her ear. As he continued to gently suck the tight tendon of her neck, his hands found the button of her jeans, with a flick he moved onto the zipper and slowly made his way down her body.
Brennan shivered as his lips trailed down her back, his barely there stubble lightly scratching the skin at her ribs and making her tremble in anticipation for the night ahead.
Booth lowered her jeans and helped her step out of them, before flicking the material out of the way and standing back up to his full height. Brennan turned in his arms and decided it was her turn to undress him, something she'd been, wanting to do again, since undressing him the lab a year ago.
She unrolled the long sleeves on his arms, before starting on the buttons down the center of his torso.
"You know Booth, I used wonder what it would be like, to be one of the girls you chose to make love to, I was always jealous of the women who got to be with you like that."
The buttons released easily as the shirt separated, the gap revealing the tanned and toned flesh beneath. Booth reached up and cupped her cheek.
"Bones there was only one woman I ever made love to and that was the mother of my son, tonight... you will be second woman, but most definitely the last."
Brennan frowned.
"What about Cam and Tessa... Hannah?"
Booth cringed at his most recent stuff up.
"They were just sex bones, not necessarily meaningless but lust filled sex all the same..."
He stroked a tendril of hair behind her ear and kissed her forehead.
"Tonight Bones... tonight is forever, for keeps, no changies or take backs; this is it for me; you're it for me."
Brennan felt the tears burn her eyes and nodded.
"For keeps."
They undressed each other in silence, Booth climbing into the tub first; he sat with his back to the porcelain at the opposite end to the faucet. Brennan stepped in slowly, wondering if they'd let the water rise too high to hold both their forms. She eased down into the water and was instantly pulled back between her partner's legs.
They each sipped their wine and felt the effects of the alcohol wash over them.
Booth's free hand caressed her abdomen, drawing swirling patterns across her wet skin; the sensation made her tingle and her arousal was felt, from the tips of her toes to the top of her head. She smiled feeling his body responding to hers, the hardness against her back growing with each passing minute.
Brennan lifted one leg and let if fall over the top of his, her fingers playing with the sensitive flesh of his outer thigh, resting her back to his chest, she smiled as he started kissing her face, little chaste kisses meant to show his affection for her. He placed his wine glass on the rim of the tub and picked up a large natural sea sponge from the hook beside him. Dunking the creamy colored object in the water, he filled it and moved it to her shoulders; before allowing the water to trickle over her skin. Rivers of clear water ran down her chest and broke the bubbles clinging to her skin, each rivulet revealing a little more flesh to his adoring eyes. Brennan inhaled sharply when she felt his finger tips graze the side of her breast; he tilted his head thinking that perhaps the touch wasn't welcome.
"Sorry."
She looked up with hooded eyes.
"Don't be."
Booth smiled and released the breath he'd been holding. Soaking up water into the sponge again, he brought it back to her chest and lightly brushed over her skin. Temperance closed her eyes, completely at ease, she couldn't remember a single time, a man had taken so much time; to simply dote on her before. The sponge wasn't entirely soft, it's sometimes rough edges created a sensuous friction against her skin and, as it was dragged lightly over her breasts, she allowed a small moan of approval to escape her parted lips.
Booth dropped the sponge into the water and let his hands wander her naked torso, his fingers creeping higher to their desired destination. He tickled the area beneath each breast, before gently cupping the flesh in his palms and squeezing approvingly.
Brennan sighed, she felt as though she'd waited forever for his touch and finally as he held her, she was amazed how precious he made her feel. His thumbs glided back and forth over her silky skin, edging closer and closer to where she wanted him most. Her body was on fire, her insides tingling with the need to be touched by this one man, to have his hands on her; everywhere and all at once.
She moaned when his thumbs finally brushed over her tightened nipples simultaneously, their tips hardening without delay. Booth sealed his lips to hers and kissed her hungrily, his greedy tongue lapping at her mouth, she didn't resist, her own body just as eager to claim him for itself.
Brennan turned in between his thighs as much as she could without straddling him, her left arm wound around his back under his right arm, while her other hand settled behind his head, her damp fingers tousling his short brown hair, and tickling the nape of his neck. Booth dropped his right hand to rest at her waist, as his left continued its play at her breast.
They kissed hotly, minutes passing without care before finally moving at a more languid pace. As the water cooled and goose bumps rose on their skin, Booth blindly pulled the chain attached to the stopper, with his toes and allowed the water drain away from them.
"Come on Bones, I know where there's a bed with our names on it."
Brennan smiled standing up she pulled two towels down from the rack, Booth was quick to wrap his around his hips before stepping out of the tub, he turned and without warning, scooped his still damp girlfriend into his arms.
Brennan yelped in surprise at his action, still smiling when he lowered her to the floor and onto the bath mat. Unknotting the towel at her cleavage, Booth took the two ends and pulled her closer, her bare body crashing against his semi naked one. Carefully and studiously he dried her, dabbing her skin with the fluffy material, when done he kissed her lips and smiled.
"I've always wanted to do that."
Brennan smirked at him with a furrowed brow.
"Dry me?"
He shrugged.
"Take care of you."
Brennan felt her pulse jump, she had realized some weeks ago that despite her views on equality, between men and women; she enjoyed being taken care of, and having someone look after her needs and wants. Though she was positive the job couldn't be filled by any other man than the one in front of her.
Booth stepped behind her and caught their reflection in the mirror, her back to his chest, her naked body displayed without shame or bashfulness. She was beautiful, long lean legs that joined the gentle a flare of her hips, toned abdomen and torso, full, round breasts and perfectly defined shoulders and upper arms that led to the softest hands, he ever held or had touch him.
"God, I could stare at you forever."
His arms encircled her waist, his hands resting against her flat belly. Brennan watched their reflection in the mirror; she had never felt so beautiful before, his words washed over her, cocooning her in his praise. She smiled as she watched his right hand, leave her stomach and make its way back to her breast, she felt his manhood twitch beneath the towel and wondered of its size when fully aroused.
Reaching behind herself she located the twist of material and tugged, the white towel dropping to the tiled floor in a flutter. Booth closed his eyes as his body came in contact with hers again; they swayed together, the friction between their bodies heightening their desire to occupy the same space.
Brennan was awed by what watching them, was doing to her libido; she was so aroused there would be no need for further foreplay. She turned in his arms, feeling his hardness press into her abdomen, her hands traveled up his torso settling at his shoulders, while she felt his hands entwine at the small of her back. Tipping back she kissed his shoulder and moved her lips to follow his collar bone to the center of his throat, she licked the water that clung to the hollow and smiled when she heard him growl in appreciation of the action.
"Booth, let's go to bed."
Dropping his head and kissing her mouth again, Booth lifted her where she stood, feeling her legs wrap around his hips; they didn't break apart as he carried her into the bedroom and lowered her to the cool sheets. His knees on the mattress Booth, lay over her body, his elbows supporting his weight from crushing her, he finally pulled back from her lips when oxygen became paramount. Seconds past when he nuzzled her neck and kissed a line from her ear lobe, to her shoulder, over her collar bone, he continued south, his lips finding her nipple and sucking gently, on first her right breast, before moving to the left and bestowing the same attention on it.
Brennan rolled her head to the side and arched her back, his tongue making her feel a thousand things, none of which she could name, the only sound to leave her lips was a whimper when he released her sensitive flesh in favor of exploring more of her body.
When he reached her hip and grazed her skin with his teeth, Brennan cried out in need. Booth could smell her arousal but was thoroughly enjoying watching her reactions to his teasing; he continued his quest to drive her insane with desire, for a few extra minutes before he could no longer deny himself, the opportunity to taste her.
Temperance Brennan had, had enough. She had never been so completely satisfied in her life and yet still feel the need for more. He had kept her on the precipice of oblivion for over an hour, his mouth and tongue bringing her to the point just before no return, before easing her back down and then starting again. He had played and explored and learned what makes her, Temperance Brennan. When he finally allowed her to fall, she has screamed his name into her pillow, fisting the sheets and arching off the bed, he had let her calm, before bringing her quickly to climax again and then once more.
Booth was pleased with himself, it was easy to see, bright eyes and char grinned he gently stroked her sweat plastered hair from her forehead.
"I'm going to have to do that again soon."
Brennan's wide blue eyes gazed up at him and he fell for her a little more. He had never witnessed anything more gorgeous than the sight of Temperance Brennan losing control.
She couldn't speak; even if she wanted to, she had no idea what to say. No words she knew could describe how she felt.
"Water?"
She nodded.
Booth pulled on a pair of boxers and quietly crept down the hall, into the kitchen. He was loathe to drink anything, the desire to keep her flavor on his tongue almost overriding his need for re-hydration, he grabbed two bottles from the fridge cracking both and walking back down the hall to where his girlfriend was waiting.
Entering the bedroom, Booth briefly wondered if his best friend had fallen asleep, he edged closer placing the water bottles down on the bedside table and gently sitting beside her. As he reached out to touch her cheek her eyes snapped open and she smiled.
"Hey Baby, I thought you'd fallen asleep."
Brennan looked to the bottle of water and held her hand out for it. Booth removed the lid and waited for her to sit up, before giving the bottle over and watching her down more than half. When her thirst was quenched she looked to her boyfriend and grinned.
"Sleep is furthest thing from mind right now Seeley Booth."
Placing the bottle back on the side table, he turned his body slightly to face her.
"Yeah?"
"Yep."
Getting up onto her knees, Brennan placed her palms against his chest and pushed him down onto the mattress, she straddled his thighs and leaned down to kiss his lips. Booth's hands pressed against her shoulder blades, pulling her into his torso firmly. The feel of her naked chest against his, sent his arousal soaring, from zero to a hundred in a matter of seconds.
Brennan slowly slid down his body, taking a similar path that he taken with her, however upon reaching his abdomen, Booth stopped her.
"If you don't stop now, its gunna be all over real quick."
Brennan smiled, she couldn't help being slightly disappointed that she wouldn't be able to return what he had done for her, but upon searching his eyes, she saw how far gone he already was and nodded.
Booth lifted his hips and removed his boxers, revealing an extremely healthy and fully aroused, Seeley Booth to Brennan's greedy eyes. She involuntarily shivered at thought of finally making love, her nerves slipping into high alert.
Once free of his shorts, Booth wasted no time flipping them over, so once again he was hovering above his girl.
His eyes stared down into hers, while one hand tested her readiness.
"Wait I need a..."
Brennan held him place.
"Are you safe?"
He tilted his head and smiled.
"I wouldn't be here if I wasn't Temperance."
She smiled, knowing he would never put her in danger.
"I've been tested since Hannah and we never... I mean I... I never did it without protection Bones, not since Parker."
Temperance smiled.
"I'm safe too and I'm on birth control."
Booth searched her eyes.
"So, we're... we're gunna do this without?"
Brennan shrugged.
"If you want to."
Booth smiled at her nervous expression.
"Oh I want to, but only if you're sure."
Brennan reached up, her hands lacing behind his neck before pulling him down to kiss him.
"I'm sure, I love you Booth."
"And I love you."
As he spoke his response, Seeley Booth was accepted into 'his' Bones, both of them feeling, that for once, they were both on the same page, at the same time.
Brennan rolled off from her dominate position and flopped down onto the mattress, they were both panting heavily. The first time they made love had been slow and gentle, movement accompanied by words of love and tenderness, promises made and sealed with the power of faith. The second time they made love had been a test of stamina, neither able to outdo the other, they had laughed and talked throughout the entire forty two minutes but the third time was a pure Booth and Bones battle of the wills, they had flipped and wrestled, taught each other new techniques and finally collapsed, hands entwined palm to palm, sweat soaked and smiling.
"God, you're gunna kill me Bones."
She giggled, rolling into his side and resting her cheek to his pounding heart. Booth instantly wrapped his arm around her and kissed her brow.
"Mmm salty."
She scrunched up her nose and lifted up onto her elbow.
"I think we need showers."
Booth chuckled.
"I won't say no."
Booth knew he wouldn't be able to sleep as he was, despite his exhausted state. He rolled up onto the side of the bed and swung his legs onto the floor, taking a minute before standing. Turning he noticed Bones staring up at him with sleepy eyes, he smiled.
"Come on you gorgeous creature, up."
She reached out a single hand to him, which he used to slide her across the damp sheets, before scooping her up and carrying her into the bathroom.
She didn't struggle, or complain; simply rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes.
"I'm so out of practice."
Her voice was muffled but the statement made him smile.
"How long has it been exactly?"
She lifted her head and eyed him curiously.
"Marc."
Booth nearly dropped her.
"The deep sea welder?"
"Yep."
His eyes were wide in shock or disbelief or maybe both, she couldn't tell.
"What?"
He shook his head.
"Wha... no... Nothing I just... that was like two years ago..."
"So?"
Booth eased her down onto the floor and turned the shower on.
"Don't get me wrong Bones, you... I mean in there, you were perfect... flawless, I've never... but wow two years..."
She furrowed her brow, unsure if she should be insulted by his reaction.
"Two years and eight months actually."
Booth chuckled.
"I thought... what about Hacker, he said..."
She shook her head.
"No, he wanted to but..."
Booth gestured her into the large shower recess and then followed her.
"But what?"
Brennan picked up her shower gel and was about to tip it up when Booth took it from her, with the intention of lathering her up himself.
"I didn't want you to get upset with me, you were already mad at me for sharing the meat loaf story and I knew you didn't want us seeing each other, so I ended it."
Booth felt humbled that she had taken how he felt, about her dating his boss seriously and put a stop to it, he had always wondered what had happened between them, considering Hacker had a different story.
"Thanks Bones."
He poured a generous amount of the scented gel into his palm and began lathering it onto her shoulders.
"Well, I found anything beyond a friendship with Andrew undesirable anyway, so..."
Booth chuckled as he spun her round to rinse the soap from her body. Brennan picked up a second bottle of shower gel that belonged to Booth and set about returning the favor.
When they were sweet smelling and squeaky clean, from head to toe, the lovers stepped out of the shower and dried quickly. Booth pulled on his boxers and Brennan changed into a pair of boy leg panties and a camisole.
After changing the sweat soaked bed sheets, both adults fell into bed together, Booth's tired body spooning around Brennan's equally fatigued frame.
"I love you Seeley."
Booth smiled at the use of his given name.
"And I am so in love with you Temperance."
Brennan pulled his arms tighter around her body, wanting to be as close as she could to him before sleep claimed her, for the last of the sunless hours.
Ok? Please review, be nice. It was really hard to explain things in what I considered a 'T' rating. Hope you all like it.
