Chapter Two- Booth

Thoughts made their way through Booth's head as he parked his car in the Jeffersonian parking lot. When he'd approached Temperance Brennan that afternoon, he'd had only the best of intentions. Dinner together, while not the most common of occurrences, was a casual affair when it did. If they were too late to eat out, they'd have takeout at one of their apartments. Friendly banter would be exchanged, usually shop talk, though the more grisly details would be left out as neither wanted to lose their appetite- or dinner.

Something felt different about tonight, though, Booth thought as he made his way to the front door. He had decided to take Temperance out to Tony's, a small Italian restaurant. It wasn't a fancy restaurant, but it was nicer than the places they usually went to. Booth though Temperance deserved a nice night out with friend. Was that what it was? Dinner with a friend? Lately Booth had begun to feel different around Temperance. Leaning against the wall outside the lab entrance, Booth realized he actually looked forward to seeing her in the mornings and her smile always made his heart beat a little faster. Not to mention he'd caught himself wanting to kiss her quite a few times in past few days. What would those lips taste like? He wondered. Feel like?

Mentally slapping himself, Booth told himself it was just a passing awareness that she was female, after all she was attractive, and he'd have to be dead not to notice her. Besides, she'd never shown any signs of liking him in any other way besides friends or coworkers. Yeah. Booth thought. It'll pass soon enough.

Just then, the doors to the Medico-Legal lab opened. Temperance came through them, gave him a smile and turned to make sure the doors locked. Pushing off from the wall, Booth straightened out his suit. Looking at Temperance, he saw that she wore the same clothes she'd worn all day, not surprisingly. However, he also noticed that her hair was down, framing her face in soft brown waves. Also, he detected the shine of lip gloss on her lips. She looks nice, he thought.

"Hey." Temperance stopped in front of him, jarring him from his thoughts.

"Bones. Ready to go?" Booth greeted her. They started walking towards his car.

"Don't call me Bones. Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise." Booth grinned opening the car door and sliding in.

"Oh come on. I hate surprises." Temperance complained as she slid into the passenger side and closed the door.

"Too bad." Booth started up the engine and shifted into reverse.

As he backed out of the parking spot and drove away from the Jeffersonian, he couldn't help but hope that this evening would turn out to be more than just a friendly dinner.

And there you have it. Booth's point of view. Thoughts? Comments? Review, please!
