A/N: Sorry for the delay in posting I was on holiday n there were no computers around.

Chapter 3

Lexa Pierce's eyes snapped open. Oh God, I did not just dream of Brennan. Not Brennan Mulwray! Quickly she checked the rest of her room, including under her bed. No Brennan. Lexa sighed in relief and leaned down so that her head touched the ground. A small unwanted voice at the back of her head whispered softly, He could have left already…

Silently she got up off the ground and changed into a form fitting black tank and black track bottoms and quietly walked out of her room towards Brennan's.

Meanwhile…

Emma woke up shocked-Lexa … dreaming of Brennan…. SHIT! Instantly she bolted out of bed causing Adam to wake up rather violently. Sitting up instantly, Adam stared as his love dressing so fast she was almost a blur. Stunned Adam asked, "Where's the fire?" Stupidity taking over in a moment of complete and utter shock.

"Not now Adam." Said whilst hurrying towards the door.

"Whoa, easy there! Tell me what the hell is going on!" Shot back whilst blocking her path. Sighing, knowing there was no hope, Emma opened her to start her story.

Meanwhile…

Brennan turned to the sound of the knock on his door. He had been halfway through changing. Curious, he called, "It's open." Curiosity gave way to pure shock as Lexa Pierce walked through the door to stand in his doorway. She looked up at him shyly and cleared her throat.

"Um… Do you know what exactly happened last night?" She glanced up at him, swallowing. He grinned. Oh no, no, no, no…

"Drinking really isn't your thing is it?" Lexa relaxed visibly and let out the breath she'd been holding. Thank you God!

"I don't mind drinking – I can take it. Just not other stuff…" Lexa colored realizing too late her slip. Shit…This I am NEVER going to live down… Then suddenly it hit her – drinking, with Brennan – only meant one thing…

"They're together aren't they?" Looking down. Hurting – badly.

Brennan, who had opened his mouth to say something in typical Brennan fashion, closed his mouth and the mischief faded from his eyes. "Yeah, yeah they're together… They always together – we just refused to see it…" Lexa nodded and felt a single tear travel down her face. She heard herself sniffle and panicked trying to control herself. You cannot cry in front of him – you CANNOT! But her mind's rebel when she felt Brennan's strong arms envelop her. She broke down sobbing into Brennan's bare shoulder. Brennan stroked her hair soothingly whilst swaying slightly with her.

A bit later, once Lexa had calmed down a bit Brennan asked mischievously "So was I good or not?"

Lexa looked up confused for a second then realized what he meant, she screamed, embarrassed, "WE DID NOT HAVE SEX! NEVER! NOT IN THE DREAM, NOT EVER! You just slept there – that's all!" Brennan burst out laughing and managed to get out:

"So you're not disappointed?" Lexa froze – maybe for a second too long. Brennan stopped laughing instantly. "Holy shit! You are disappointed!" All he could was stare. Shit, shit, mother fucking shit! She, Lexa friggin' Pierce, wanted to have sex with me! He instantly started panicking not because of the fact of her disappointment but because of his own dream and what had happened in it.

"No, no, hell no."

Swallowing, she turned to get to the door when she felt the two arms that had been around her just seconds before curl around her waist dragging her back. She struggled half heartedly – half wanting him, half unsure of what would happen.

"Tell me the truth – are you or are you not disappointed?" whispered in her ear and sending shivers down her back. She opened her mouth to reply when the door swung open to reveal four very shocked teammates, all with the same question on their minds: ''What the hell was going on?'
