Chapter 4
Temperance awoke and sat up in the bed. She got out and dressed in a green tank top and a black knee length skirt. She ran the brush through her hair a few times and then put it back down on the dresser. She walked out into the hallway and through the living room to see a smiling Booth. "Morning" she said.
He smiled and said "Good morning. I made some coffee." He handed her a cup of coffee and she smiled. "Thanks" she said. She took a sip and then set it down on the table that was there. "I guess we should go grocery shopping later today" she said remembering that they hadn't bought any food since they had arrived.
"We will after we get back" he said smiling. "Booth where are we going" she asked after taking another sip of coffee. "Oh alright" he said "I'm taking you to Idlewild and Soak Zone." Getting no response but a confused look he said "It's an amusement park and a water park. That's also why I told you to bring your bathing suit."
"Oh" she said. She finished her coffee and set the mug in the sink. She would wash it then. She sat down at the table again and Booth said "Want to go get some breakfast? Then we can go to the water park. So I guess you can either wear your suit under your clothes or change when we get there."
"Ok" she said. He finished his coffee and put his cup in the sink also. She walked to the guestroom and packed a small bag with her suit and a towel and then walked into the living room area to wait for Booth who was getting his things. When he came out they walked outside and got into his car. They drove to a pancake house and stopped there.
They sat down and ordered their breakfast and drinks. It didn't take long for it to come and they ate while chatting about nothing in particular. "So have you ever been to a amusement or water park before?" Booth asked after chewing a bite of pancake.
She nodded and finished her bite too. "Once. My parent's took us but that was the only time. I enjoyed it." she said remembering the trip. Soon a sad look came over her face and Booth felt guilty. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to bring up the subject." he said guiltily.
She looked up at him and said "It's ok you didn't mean to." They ate the rest of their meal in silence and when they were done Booth paid the bill. As they were walking out she said "At least once on this trip I am going to pay the bill! Do you understand me?"
"Yes mother" said Booth with a smirk as they reached his car. He opened the passenger door for her and got an eye roll in return. He shut it and got in on his own side.
They reached the water park in a quick 30 minutes and parked close to the park but also close to the water park. They got out and got their things from the trunk. They put on the neon orange wristbands they had to wear and walked into the water park and to the changing areas.
Temperance walked into the girls side and into a changing spot. She took off her clothes and replaced them with her black bathing suit. She hadn't brought a cover-up so she would have to walk around in just this. She put her clothes in her bag and quickly put on some sunscreen. She walked out and saw Booth sitting on a bench waiting for her.
As she walked towards him she could feel his eyes going up and down her. The strange part though was that she didn't really mind. When she had been standing in front of him for at least 15 seconds she said "Hello? Booth?"
He quickly snapped out of his starring at her and said "Well you look nice" which earned him a playful slap on the arm. He put on his best 'ouch' face and wined "Oww." He stood up and they walked to where they could put down their things. After they did they walked to the first slide which you could have double tubes or single tubes. After a lot or arguing over which tube to use, Booth finally convinced her to get a double one.
They stood in line for about 10 minutes and finally it was their turn. They both got in Booth in the back and Tempe in front. Booth had to have his legs around her arms and she didn't mind. Soon they were speeding through the tunnel and then it was over. They landed in the water and got off the tube. After riding the other slides in the park and this one a few more times they resorted to just the pool.
He told her he had to go to the bathroom and he did. He came back 5 minutes later. He realized she hadn't seen him yet so he got in and snuck up behind her. He placed his hands on her shoulders and she tried to turn around but it was too late. He was dunking her under and after a mere five seconds he let go and she floated back up.
"Booth!" she yelled at him. She skimmed her hand across the water sending a spray of water all over him. He sent a spray back and soon they were in the midst of a water fight. Finally both of them got tired and Booth suggested they go to the main park now. It was now 4:00. It was getting closer to the time. They had both gone and changed back into their clothes from earlier and they were now entering the main park.
First they rode the scrambler and all the fast rides. Then the got some pizza at a pizza shop and now were seated at a table enjoying some ice cream. When they were finished it the sun was just starting to set. "How about we ride the ferris wheel?" Booth said and so they walked over to it and got on. They went around two times each enjoying the breeze and the beautiful sunset. Finally when the got stopped on the top Booth realized this was the moment.
He looked over at her and saw the wind blowing her hair. She was so beautiful. "Bo-Temperance" he said. The sound of him saying her name sent chills down her spine and she looked over at him "yes Booth?"
What do I say? How will she react? He pushed the thoughts away and cleared his throat. He looked in front of him avoiding her questioning gaze and finally said "Temperance you know your more than just my partner you my friend. Possibly my best friend in the universe but sometimes I feel like we could be more, should be more." He was still looking ahead when he felt her hand on his shoulder.
"What are you saying" she asked him still confused. "I guess what I'm saying is that I need to tell you how I really feel before it makes me explode. What I guess I'm saying is that I love you Temperance Brennan" he said finally turning his head and meeting his gaze.
She stared at him not being able to move. She didn't know what to say, didn't know what to do. She was just to shocked. But maybe what shocked her the most was what he did next. He leaned in and kissed her. He pulled away and closed his eyes expecting a slap across the face. This was what stunned him. She put her arms around his neck and pulled him in for another kiss this time deepening it herself. When they finally pulled away she smiled up at him.
"You know what Seeley?" she said with a smirk on her face.
"What Temperance?" he asked
"I love you too" she said. And with that he pulled her in for another breath taking kiss. The ride started to move again and they pulled apart. They got off and he took her hand in his and the exited the park and walked back to the car. The drive home was silent neither knowing what to say. When they finally reached the cabin Temperance was the first out of the car and up the path. He got out and walked up it himself unlocking the door to let them in.
They both walked inside and she started towards her bedroom but felt him grab her wrist. "What Booth" she asked finally breaking the silence between them. "Do you regret it?" he asked, actually scared of what she might say. She sighed and looked him in the eye.
"No but I can't do this I'm to scared of being hurt again" she said holding back the tears that were threatening to fall. He wrapped his arms around her in a giant hug and said "I would never hurt you and never leave you. Not intentionally anyway. I hope you know that Temperance."
She smiled up at him and said "I do now" He released her arm and pulled her in for another kiss. When they finally broke apart she said "I'm going to bed now." and he nodded. They both walked to the doorway of the rooms and before they walked in Booth said "Love you Tempe" she responded with a smile and an "I love you too." Then they both went into their rooms and got into their beds. Each replaying the events of the night they had just had. Soon they both feel asleep, smiles on their faces.
