'At last.' Booth sighed as they made their way to his SUV. Michael had declared almost an hour ago that he was done, for the time being mind. Booth didn't really care, as long as he could go home now.

'Tell me about it.' Brennan laughed. It was now 11pm and she was finally going to spend some time with Booth. 'I don't think he found much anyway.'

Booth looked over to her as he entered the car on the drivers' side. Starting the ignition and backing out of the Jeffersonian parking, he commented on the statement.

'What do you mean?' his eyebrows furrowed. Brennan looked over to him and turned her body so that she could face him instead of the road in front of her.

'It's just that, he spent 5 hours with the remains, right? Yet still he's gonna come back tomorrow and do more. I spent less than an hour and I got a hell lot out of it.'

Booth looked over at Brennan, and noticed how her face was concentrating on something else. He couldn't help but notice how cute she looked. He smiled to himself and faced back to the road.

'You think something's up?'

'I don't know.' Brennan shrugged. 'I mean for a professor of anthropology, he was working pretty slowly. Slower then Zack and I -'

'Maybe you're just, you know, better than he is at the job.' Booth cut in. Brennan smiled at the compliment, but then pushed on.

'Anyway, I just think it's taking time because he finally realised that the Costello's are guilty and should be in jail for the rest of their lives. He just couldn't find what he was looking for. So he'll try again tomorrow.' She said, a bit exasperated. Her eyes finally lay on Booth's face and were able to register the look on it. 'What?' she asked at the smile on his face, which looked kind of made in disbelief.

'Nothing.' He shook his head, still laughing a bit. The dubious look on Brennan's face made him tell her the truth. The truth that only she could probably not see.

'C'mon Bones. The only thing that he was there to look for was you. And I'm guessing he found it alright.' He was still laughing, which relaxed Brennan a bit, but the tone of his voice made her realise that he was being serious.

'But what has that got to do with the case?' Brennan's naivety now showed through again. They had arrived at her apartment and had started to get out of the SUV. Booth was already at the other side of the vehicle by the time Brennan had thought about getting out of the car.

It was quite warm outside, and Brennan took her time getting to the door and opening it.

'You didn't answer my question, Seeley.' She stated once they had gotten inside. Booth had made his way to the kitchen to grab a couple of drinks from the fridge, a new one, which was reasonably big.

Brennan was sitting in the living room on the single couch, legs curled up under her, awaiting Booth's response. He finally came in with two water bottles, claiming it to be too late for anything hard. He had taken his suit jacket and tie off and looked quite hot, to Brennan's opinion.

Sitting on the other couch, adjacent to Brennan's, he grabbed the control for the TV, which he had bought for a 'birthday gift' last year, and settled back, flipping through the channels.

'Oi!' she kicked him with one free leg that she had uncurled. He looked at her and smiled.

'You still not worked it out?' When Brennan shot him a 'just tell me' look, he shook his head and chuckled. 'Well, my theory is that when he found out that the Costello's were appealing, their team of lawyers probably recruited him once again. It didn't matter to him that he knew, which I guess that he does, that they were guilty, but the perks were right. So he took the job. And here we are.' He looked at her for moment longer and shook his head. 'You're confused aren't you?'

'What perks?' she asked.

'Uh. Let's think.' He said sarcastically.

'You mean me?' she asked, slightly taken aback. Booth rolled his eyes.

'What have we been talking about for the last half an hour, Bones?' Brennan ignored the comment.

'Michael's not like that.' She stated. In response, she got a glare from Booth. 'What?'

'Trust me, he is.'

'How do you know? You hardly know him!' Brennan didn't know why she was getting defensive, and she decided that it wasn't the best tactic to use.

'No, I don't. Don't really wanna either.' He muttered. Brennan threw him another look, and Booth decided to go on. 'All I'm saying is that it's obvious that that's what he's up to. I mean, I'd be the same if I were in his position.' He added on the end in a murmur.

'Really? You would do the same?' Brennan's eyes had lit up and now she was interested in the conversation, and where it was going.

'Well, I did.' He shrugged. Brennan was getting intrigued by the moment. She put it down to the fact that she hadn't seen him for a week, but she knew that it was due to a lot more than that.

'Really? When?'

'When? Let's see.' His sarcasm got him a pillow thrown at him. He was now lying on the couch on his back, and Brennan had inched closer to him. She now stood over him.

'Well?'

'Well, what?' he teased. Booth had grabbed Brennan's arms before she could hurt him with them, and pulled her down on top of him. An arm next to his head on the armrest, Brennan was able to prop herself up.

'When did you do the same thing?' she whispered. He tried to kiss her, but she moved her head up away from him. 'Uh uh. Not till you tell me.' She shook her head, causing her hair to fall down onto her face.

'When we never had the chance to do this.' He lifted an arm and moved the lock of hair off of her face. 'What? You didn't think that Cullen gave all those cases to us, do you? And I thought you were smarter than that.' He shook his head.

With one hand on his cheat, Brennan began to push herself off, pretending to be offended. Booth grabbed her wait and pulled her back down.

'I'm sorry. ' He whispered and leaned in to kiss her. No matter how much she wanted to try and get away, a part of her kept Brennan there and returned the kiss, deeper than ever.
