Chapter 3

Booth woke early to get everything ready for the day. He was still amazed that he was able to convince Bones to go with him to the Park today.

Normally she would fight him tooth and nail about being pulled away from work to do something as normal as go to the park for a day but somehow he had managed to do it.

Even more surprising than that, he had nearly kissed her yesterday and she hadn't flipped him on his back or threatened bodily harm in any fashion. When anyone else got into her person space she freaked out and either ran or hurt the person depending on the situation but somehow he had bypassed this fate.

This put all the more pressure on him today. Everything had to be perfect and he couldn't make her feel uncomfortable or she might run. He hoped that the previous day hadn't been just a fluke.

He hadn't talked to Brennan since the yesterday when Angela had rushed Brennan out of the Jeffersonian and they took off shopping. He feared that if he did she would come up with some reason not to go today and he couldn't let that happen.

Now if just everything would go well today. He had a sneaking suspicion that Angela had been spying on them yesterday and part if him hoped she had. He knew that if anyone could convince Brennan to take a chance on him that it would be Angela.

That is just what he had planned today too, besides spending a great day with his son and best friend; he was going to make her realize that they had crossed the line between friendship and more a long time ago.

It wasn't until yesterday when he nearly kissed her that he had realized he couldn't fight it anymore. Looking into her eyes he saw passion and knew that she had feelings for him too.

Booth pulled away from his thoughts and let his mind drift back to the task at hand. He had everything they needed for a great day in the park prepared. He had an ice chest full of water and juice for Parker. He also had some chips and cookies packed away. All that was left to do for food was to make some sandwiches. He had decided upon turkey since that was her favorite.

Tonight, if all went well, he had planned on coming back to his house and cooking the steaks he had purchased the night before and sitting on his patio for dinner. His patio had a perfect view of the baseball field that was only two blocks away. The baseball field was infamous for its yearly 4th of July show and he wanted her to see it from the best seats in town.

Once he made and packed the sandwiches, he hurried down stares to load his SUV with the lawn chairs and cooler. He also packed huge towels for after the water park so they could dry off and a blanket so they could sit under a tree for their lunch.

Today was going to be perfect, he could feel it. Looking down at his watch he realized that it was almost nine and he had told Rebecca he would pick Parker up around 9:15 and take him to breakfast.

That gave him just enough time to get over there and grab breakfast with Parker and take it over to the Jeffersonian for them to eat there. He knew that Bones skipped breakfast and if he got there in time they could eat before he made her leave her work promptly at 10AM.

He got in his SUV and hurried to Parker who he knew would be waiting for him. He pulled up right at 9:15 and hurried to the door. He was greeted by a small boy with blonde girls in his eyes attaching himself to his leg.

Booth looked down at the boy and smiled. "He bud, you ready for a day in the
park?"

"Yeah daddy!"

"And guess what bud?"

"What?"

"I talked Dr. Bones into coming too!"

"Yeah!" Parker shouted as Rebecca walked up behind the pair. " Mommy, mommy, guess what?!"

"What Parker?"

"Dr. Bones is coming with us and we are going to have the best day. Aren't we daddy?"

"We sure are Parker."

"Well that is great. Be careful and mind your father and Dr. Brennan okay?"

"Okay Mommy, I will."

Rebecca smiled as she turned to Seeley. "Here is his backpack. There is sunscreen in. I put some on him earlier but if he starts getting red or after you get out of the water you might want to put some more on him so he doesn't burn. I also packed him an extra towel and set of clothes. You know how messy he can me."

"Thanks Rebecca." He smiled at her.

"Sure Seeley, just make sure you have him back by seven for dinner."

"That I can do!" Booth then squatted down to Parker's level. "You ready to go bud?"

"Yeah daddy!"

"Well climb on!" Booth said as he lifted the small boy over his shoulders to rid on his back.

"Be good Parker." Rebecca reminded him as she smiled at the boys.

"I will mommy."

With that Parker and Booth turned to go to the SUV. Booth buckled him into his car seat and then went to get in the drivers seat.

"So are you hungry buddy?"

"Yeah, mommy said you were going to feed me this morning so I didn't eat the pancakes she made. I wanted you to take me to Sid's and get some hash browns and a biscuit."

"You got it bud."

They traveled over to Sid's and Booth went around to unbuckle Parker. Parker jumped out and ran up to the door and waited on his father. "Hurry daddy, I'm hungwy."

"Well how about we grab the food and then take it to Dr. Bones so she can eat with us too? That sound okay?"

"I guess but let's hurry cuz I'm hungwy"

Oddly, Sid had their breakfast ready for them and Booth paid. They then got back into the SUV and headed for the Jeffersonian, making it in record time.
