One Night (Continued)

Thanks for all the reviews! Please send in more! No, I haven't read her books, but I think that I'm getting one for Christmas.

It was the week of their wedding; they were getting married on New Year's Eve, and Tempe was getting the nerves she expected to have before a wedding. Booth wasn't exactly calm either. They were both very stressed out. Since Tempe had moved her stuff in to Booth's house last week, she told him that she wanted to use up the rest of her rent and stay in her apartment until 2006. He agreed.

Tempe rushed to pick-up the phone when it rang. "Hello…sure, booth I'll be right there…124 Canoe Dr. …got it." She said, trying to get her coat over her arms while trying to hold the phone. They had to go to the dress rehearsal of their wedding. Booth didn't have to pick her up anymore because he had gotten her a new car for an early wedding present. She loved it.

"Hey, over here Tempe," Booth said as he spotted Tempe in the large group of people in the house. Apparently, one of the high school-aged kids had a party and it got out of hand. His step-mom and dad were on their honeymoon when it happened. One of the guests was making out with his girlfriend in the basement when they found the body.

"Oh, hey, I was looking for you. Some party, huh?" She said walking down the stairs to the basement.

"Oh, yeah, reminds me of collage parties; no chaperone, trashed place, and spiked punch. Real surprise there." He said following her to the basement.

"Really? Reminds me of bad decisions by the parents." She said, examining the body hanging from the ceiling beams.

"Hey, how would like to come over tonight and we can have our own little party, just us two?" he said, knowing she would say yes.

"Oh, I don't know if I can. I've got to wash my hair." She said sarcastically, joking around with him. "I'd love to come to your 'party' Booth."

"Great, I'll get the beer for the punch." He said, getting back at her for what she said.

"Good, Booth, come look at this." She said pointing to the neck of the victim. "the neck didn't break which means that this person, I estimate was a young adult."

"I love you," he said, her hand in his as they headed upstairs to his bedroom (which was technically their bedroom now.)

"I love you, too," she said as she was struggling to make it up the stairs, walking backwards, and kissing her fiancé at the same time. When they made it to his bedroom, he kicked open the door, only to find Tessa sitting on his bed, waiting for him.
