Interruptions
Chapter One
Seeley Booth knew he was in trouble the moment he saw the white envelope in the stack of mail. The return address was that of a Colorado Anthropology Museum and only one person would send him an invitation to a wedding from there. Bones, she was getting married and it wasn't to him. Who was it then? It had been a long time since he had talked to Bones; after all, she had taken the job in Colorado nearly two years ago. Sure, they emailed and sent pictures and what not, but it wasn't the same. There was something weird about this invitation. "Oh, well. May as well see who she's marrying," he thought as he opened the envelope.
Doctor Temperance Brennan was nervous. Had Booth gotten the invitation? Would he turn down David's request? What if he had to work or something happened and he couldn't make it at the last minute? She was beginning to pace around her office and, after twenty minutes of restless wandering, finally decided to get some work done. Just as she had begun to become immersed in her work, she heard a ruckus outside of the office and she decided to explore.
"Sir, you can't just walk in there. You don't have an appointment and no notice has been given to Doctor Brennan about your arrival." The Secretary outside said.
"Carla, just send the person in." Tempe replied through the intercom, wondering just who could be in that much of a hurry to see her.
She turned back to her computer and saved the work she had been doing, her instincts were telling her that no more work would be done if things continued this way. She looked up as she became aware of someone watching her from the doorframe.
"How can I help…" she began before she realized just who the impatient visitor was.
"Bones, how have you been?" Seeley Booth replied knowing full well that he was about to be chewed out for his entrance and welcomed enthusiastically at the same time.
"Booth, what are you doing here? When did you get here? And why in space did you just barge in like an animal?"
Booth chuckled as he listened to her, some things just didn't change. "It's why on earth, Bones. And it's good to see you again too."
"So I take it you got the invitation?"
"Of course, but why did David choose me to be the Best Man?"
