Chapter 5

"I don't know what that means." Brennan's often used phrase when something completely passed over her head. It made Booth's jaw drop. He didn't know what to say.

"I haven't been happy since before my parents disappeared. I haven't lain in bed on Sunday mornings with anyone. I…" Brennan started but Booth didn't let her finish. He took hold of her face and pulled her close. Their lips were pressed against each other and again the spark of electricity seemed to pass through them. Brennan shivered and Booth rubbed his arms over her. Their tongues explored each others mouths but suddenly, the FBI Agent could feel her tense up and begin to pull away. Not wanting to push her, Booth let her back away.

Brennan sat back on the sofa. She breathed heavily and looked over at him. Something inside her screamed to kiss him again but she resisted the urge.

"Seeley, I…" Again Booth interrupted her.

"That is what love is. That spark between us. I've never felt anything like it and I don't want it to go away." He said.

"Neither do I." She smiled. This time she moved in and kissed him gently.

"But I don't want to go too fast either."

"We'll take this as slow as you want. I said I wouldn't rush you into anything." Booth reminded her.

"Then just hold me and tell me all about Sunday mornings." She said.

WWWWWWWWWWW

A beeping noise woke Booth from his sleep. He realized that it was his cell phone and he reached over to answer it.

"Booth." He mumbled.

"Booth, its Angela. Have you seen or talked to Brennan? She hasn't showed up for work and she's not answering her cell phone."

"Uh," he paused and looked over at the other side of his bed. There she was, wearing one of his t-shirts. Even though they hadn't done anything but lie and talk most of the night, it had to have been one of the best nights of his life.

"Booth are you still there?" Angela's voice brought him back to reality.

"Uh yeah, listen I'll be on the road in ten minutes and I'll swing by her place on my way in." He told her.

"All right. Hey, what are you wearing?" Angela asked.

"Goodbye Angela." Booth hung up. He turned to Temperance. She was still asleep and he hated to wake her but they did have a case to solve.

"Temperance," he whispered in her ear. She smiled but didn't move.

"We're late for work." Booth said. Immediately, Brennan sat up.

"I'd offer you a ride in but I think people would get suspicious." He smiled.

"That and I don't have any clothes other than what I wore yesterday." She smiled back. Soon she was hopping around scooping up her clothes.

"I'll see you at work." Brennan called as she headed for the door. Booth stopped her and kissed her.

"I love you." He said.

"I love you, too." She smiled and then quickly headed for the elevator.
