**Disclaimer: I do not own anything with BONES or any songs in my stories. I just love Booth and Bones love story. **

Writer's Note #1: I am going to apologize for the title I couldn't think of a decent title.

Sweets watched the clock, time passing not quickly enough. Just sitting there watching the clock just made him more on edge. "This is so bogus. All you have to do is tell them what you told Angela. That's it. You can do this, you have to do this," giving himself a little pep talk, just waiting for Booth and Brennan to show, whenever that may be.

"Bones, why don't we just call out sick? We aren't really that late, Angela only considers you late because you are usually in before anyone else. We don't have any cases and the remains in Limbo can wait one more day." Booth begged using that sad puppy dog look.

She could never say no to him when he looked at her with those big brown puppy dog eyes, but they weren't sick letting her brain rule out this time. "Booth, we really should go to work."

"Please, let's just stay in bed all day. This is so nice. You know you agree with me," as he flashed her, his charming smile.

She couldn't argue with that she much rather lay in his arms all day. "How about a compromise let me check my emails and if there isn't anything major then we can use our sick days. OK?"

"Deal"

Booth laid on his back on the bed while she grabbed her laptop from the side of his bed. For once he was happy that she brought that thing with her. Because if she didn't then they would definitely have to go to work, right now there could be a chance that they could call out sick. She logged in, nothing really and then she noticed an email from Sweets.

"Hey, Booth, I think we are going to have to go in. Look at this."

He propped himself up on the pillows so he could look at the email. "Damn it Sweets."

"Booth, maybe it really isn't that important. You know Sweets."

"We couldn't be that lucky. Damn it Sweets." He let out a long sigh and pulled Bones into him closely and nuzzled her.

"Let's get going. You can take your shower first."

She looked at him mischievously, "Why should we waste time by taking two separate showers."

"She is trying to kill me," he thought. Booth was going to kill the kid shrink and thank him both at the same time. Booth much had rather spent all day holding her but if going into work meant they would share a shower together then that is a great way to start the work day.

After a nice long shower and make out session, they were both ready to start their day and to see what the twelve year old wanted. And it better be good, dragging them out. Not that either one of them had a problem with work far from it, but at work they were all business. The only real physical contact that they have through out the day is when he touches the small of her back to lead her out a door other than that nothing inappropriate. Booth just waned to be able to touch her a little more often at work, but instead he would take what he could get. Holding hands in the vehicle, a little touch here and there, so Sweets' reason better be a really good one, because Booth and Bones could have been laying in bed right now, instead of heading to Sweets' office.

Sweets was startled when the partners entered his office.

"Sweets this better be important." Booth stated to the boy shrink.

Bones barely looked at Sweets, she took a seat on the couch and Booth sat right along side her.

"So Sweets, out with it. We don't have all day." Bones just sat there with her one hand in her lap and the other intermingled with Booth's. It gave her comfort because she really didn't want to be there. If it wasn't for Sweets' email her and Booth would be snuggled up in his bed. But she was definitely not complaining about conserving water this morning.

"Well," Sweets tried to speak without getting emotional like he did with Angela. "I asked for you and Dr. Brennan to come here because I have something that I have to get off my chest. It is very important that I tell you."

"What you finally hit puberty? Booth chuckled and Bones flashed a half smile, as he ran his thumb over her knuckles, which made her feel better even though she still didn't want to be there.

"No, Agent Booth this is very serious, as I was saying." Sweets continued trying not to lose his train of thought.

Booth was getting a little annoyed with the twelve year old.

But Sweets lost his train of thought and started all over again. "Well, like I was saying I asked you both here because I wanted to apologize. Since, Dr. Brennan is extremely upset with me because she thinks I purposely tried to sabotage your relationship. But that is further from the truth."

While Sweets spoke Dr. Brennan stayed fixated on her hand that Booth was holding and Booth alternating his attention between her and Sweets.

"That night when you told me of your real first case and that you kissed. And it was obvious to me that even back then you two had something. I got frustrated. That is why I told you Agent Booth to make the gambler in you to work for you. And that was just wrong in so many ways. Though you two never listen to me anyhow, who would have thought that you would have listened to me this time? The reason I got frustrated this time is because you both deserve to be happy, just the way you look at each other, your interaction with each other and the twinkle in your eyes when you look at each other. You are meant to be with each other. You two remind me of my adoptive parents. They were so much in love with each other. They looked at each other the way that you guys look at each other. I just wanted both of you to be happy. That is all I ever wanted. I didn't mean for all of this to turn so wrong, all this drama, all this hurt, all the running and all this hurting to happen. I was wrong to try to push you out of your comfort zones and out of your "surrogate relationship". I just want to apologize and make everything right again."

Bones rose from the couch and released her fingers from Booth's. "I will take your apology under consideration." And she headed toward the door without another word. Booth followed her without saying a word, put his hand on the small of her back and guided her out the door. As Booth closed the door he looked back at Sweets. Sweets was looking at his feet, not wanting to make eye contact with Booth.

Heading out of Sweets' office, Bones asked, "Can you take me back to the lab? I just want to be alone to process what Sweets had to say."

"You sure you don't want me to stay with you in Limbo, because we both know that's where you are going to go. That's where you always go when you want to think."

"I just need some time alone. Please"

"Ok, Bones, but I am going to pick you up from lunch."

"I would like that. I always enjoy our time together, but I just need time to think about what Sweets said right now."

As they drove to the Jeffersonian, they drove in silence. Only holding hands, Bones just looked out the window. Booth just let her be with her thoughts when she was ready to talk she would.

They pulled up to the Jeffersonian. She leaned in and gave Booth a soft little kiss on the lips. "I'm fine Booth. I just need some time to think."

He didn't want the kiss to end, but he knew it had to. "I will pick you up for lunch."

She let go of his hand, exited the SUV and heading to the Jeffersonian. He waiting until she was in the building, and drove back to the Hoover Building.
