A/N: Well here it is, the final chapter! I know I said thatI was going to post this this week-end but Saturday night I had writer's block then Sunday I woke up with a very sore wrist and it would hurt when I typed. It still hurts as I'm typing this but after frustrating everybody I thought you all deserved a quick update. So even though my wrist is in a lot of pain, here is the final chapter. Hope you all enjoy it and don't forget to review!

It took Booth a couple of seconds to process what had just happenedbut as soon as everything clicked in his mind, he quickly wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. As he held her tightly, he couldn't help wondering how come she was there. Had she known which hotel he was staying at? He pushed that thought aside and simply enjoyed the fact that he was holding her.

He didn't know how long they had been standing there, holding each other, in the hallway of the hotel but Booth held her tight until he felt her squirm in his arms. He let her pull away a bit but kept his arms around her waist.

"What are you doing here?" she asked him.

"I came to see you." He replied as he leaned in.

He had been about to kiss her when she dodged.

"When did you get here?"

"Same time as you. We took the same plane." He told her, smiling in an attempt to hide the fact that it had hurt when she had dodged.

"How did you know I was staying in this hotel?"

"I didn't." He answered truthfully. "We just happened to pick the same hotel, that's all."

She gave him her I-don't-believe-you look before smiling at him. She saw him look at her lips and it was obvious to herthat he wanted to kiss her but she wasn't going to let him that easy. She felt like teasing him a little.

"Can I kiss you now?" Booth begged her.

"Why?" she asked him. Is he really begging?

But all of her hopes of teasing came crashing down when, without answering,Booth leaned in quickly and pressed his lips on hers before she had the time to dodge once more. But,to his surprise,Brennan stayed passive instead and Booth was forced to pull back.

She saw the hurt in his eyes and immediately felt guilty. She hadn't meant to hurt him, she just hadn't felt like doing this in the hallway. She told him so and before turning to her door she saw in his eyes and by the expression on his face that he was relieved.

She felt his hands on her hips which caused her to think that her legs were going to give out on her. She weakly unlocked the door, swiping her card in the lock, and opened it. She felt Booth pushing her inside the room. She turned around to face him. He had barely closed the door behind him with his foot when he kissed her once again. Eyes closed, she felt him pushing her to the bed and they soon fell on it.

Booth opened his eyes a few hours later feeling rather cold. He looked down to see that the blankets barely covered his naked body. He turned on his side and stared at the woman asleep beside him, hogging all of the blankets. He smiled to himself as he propped himself on his elbow to get a better look at her. She looked so peaceful when she was asleep. He tried taking some of the blankets but the more he tugged on them, the more she tugged on them as well.

"Temperance." He whispered, gently shaking her to wake her up.

But Brennan didn't wake up. She smile sighed happily in her sleep and pulled the blankets to her even more, this time leaving Booth completely blanket deprived.

"Bones." He added a little louder and shakinga littlebit more.

Still she wouldn't wake up.

"Come on, Bones, I'm cold. Give me some of these blankets."

He saw her stirring and sigh out of relief.

"What are you whinning about, Booth?" she asked him, having been raised from her slumber by the sound of his whinning.

"I'm cold, Bones. Quit hogging the blankets."

Booth pulled on the bedspread and covered himself up. Brennan turned around and cuddled up against him.

"There, are you all better?" she asked him teasingly.

"Yeah."

They stayed in silence for a few minutes simply enjoying each other's company.

"Why did you come to Charlotte?" Brennan asked him.

"I needed to see you."

"Why?"

"Gee, let me jog your memory, Bones. You show up at my house at night, ask me to go take a walk then when we come back from it, you tell me you love me and before I even have a chance to answer you take off."

"Sorry."

She sounded really sorry and Booth's heart ached at the thought that maybe he had hurt her. He hadn't snapped or anything but maybe something in his voice had made her think that he was mad.

"I'm not mad, Temperance." He said, kissing her on top of her head. "I love you too, you know."

He heard her sigh happily and he couldn't help but smile.

"My turn. Why did you take off?"

"I had to find Temperance."

"Did you?"

"Yeah. I was just coming back from lunch with her when I saw you."

"And?"

"She's my cousin."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes. My dad was her dad's brother and my mom's twin sister was her mother."

"Whoa that's weird. And you didn't know she was your cousin?"

"No. I had never met her parents and my parents never talked about them. Apparently, her parents ran away when they were teenagers because my aunt was pregnant with Temperance. Her parents cut their family out of their lives. Temperance had only heard about my grandfather William, the one who got me out of the foster system."

"Hmm... talk about a coincidence especially since you two have the same name and the same profession."

"I don't know about the name but the profession is surely coincidental."

"Why do you say that?"

"Our mothers are the ones who chose our names. Temperance thinks it's got to do with how seperated twins sometimes lead some sort of parrarel lives. In our case, both our mothers chose the name Temperance for their first daughters."

"And of course you don't believe her because you don't believe in psychology."

"Perhaps."

"Are you two going to keep in touch?"

"Yeah. We exchanged e-mail addresses and phone numbers. Oh, and guess what? She also has a younger sister named Harry. It's short for Harriet. AND she has a daughter named Katy, which makes her my niece."

She had added that last bit somewhat proudly and Booth chuckled.

"What?"

"Nothing." He replied lifting his head so he can look in her eyes. "I'm just happy you finally found a family."

Temperance smiled.

"Even without them, I would have found a family anyway."

Getting what she meant, Booth smiled and leaned in to kiss her.
