Hangovers and Hairdos

Chapter 8


Temperance rolled over in bed and looked at the clock on the nightstand. At first she wasn't sure where she was or why she was alone. The familiar body of Booth wasn't next to her and she set up to look around the room.

The night before came flooding back to her. The last thing she remembered was stumbling through the doors and falling face first on the bed. She looked down to see she was still wearing the tight pink pants that were now unbuttoned. She was surprised she had been able to sleep so well. Scanning the bed she found her phone laying open beside her pillow and wondered who she had drunk dialed.

A knock came from the door and she looked up to see Angela peeking her head in. "Good morning sweetie. How do you feel?"

Temperance just shook her head unable to speak. She was sick, very sick. Angela set down a tray on the side table and smiled at her friend. "Drink this."

"What is it?" was all she managed to squeak out.

"If I tell you, you won't drink it. Just trust me. I drank some and I am feeling fine now."

Temperance gagged as she drank the gross concoction but she trusted her friend and drank the rest of it. She then ran to the bathroom and brought the brew back up.

"What the heck was that Ange? It tasted like beer with lime and tomato juice."

"Close." She said with a smile. "But you already feel better right?"

"Surprisingly, yes I do."

"Told you, I am the queen of getting rid of a hangover. I partied enough in college to know how to fix any ailment alcohol can cause."

"Thanks Ange. Now I might not kill you for last night!"

"Last night was so great! Don't act like you didn't have a wonderful time. You should be thanking me."

"I really did Ange, thank you."

"See, I knew you would. Now you get an even better night tonight with your hubby." Angela winked at her friend. "I can't believe you are actually getting married miss marriage is an antiquated ritual blah blah blah."

"People change I guess." Temperance smiled.

"Yeah, I would change for Booth too."

"Ange!"

"Okay, I know he is yours but you are a very lucky woman, remember that!"

"I will, thanks."

"Anytime sweetie. Now we need to hurry and get dressed so we can go get our hair done. I am going to drop you off and then run by my house to take some of my secret drink to Zack. He had a pretty hard night."

"What made it hard?" Temperance asked in confusion.

"No sweetie, he got drunk and ended up passed out in front of the toilet. Hodgie said it is a miracle Booth didn't shoot him." They both had a laugh at that.

"Okay, I am going to get dress really quick. I need to get out of these pants." Angela just laughed as she left Temperance alone to get dressed.

Twenty five minutes later Angela was dropping Temperance off to get her hair done and heading towards her house to see the guys.

She was greeted at the door by Hodgins who gave her a smile kiss on the cheek and moved to allow her entry into the house.

"Good morning beautiful."

"Good morning Jack. Where is sick boy?"

Hodgins laughed as he pointed towards the bathroom at the end of the hall. Angela proceeded down the hall and pushed open the bathroom door. Zach was curled into a ball beside the toilet muttering something that neither Hodgins nor Angela understood.

Hodgins tapped Zach with his shoe and Zach rolled over, this time muttering something about Booth and getting shot. Zach refused to wake up to Angela took matters into her own hands.

She retrieved a glass of ice cold water and poured it over Zach who immediately jumped up from the ground and looked around. Hodgins laughed "Good morning Zach."

"Why did you wake me? I think I am still sick." Zach kneeled down beside the toilet as if he were going to be sick.

"Drink this." Angela handed him the jar of her special concoction.

"What is it."

"Drink it or I will feed it to you." Angela gave Zach a look letting him know she meant business. Zach, being terrified of Angela, drank the potion and immediately started feel better.

"Okay, now where is the groom? You guys have 3 hours before you need to be to the Jeffersonian."

"He left this morning. Not sure where he went."

"Crap, if he is anywhere near Temperance I will kill him. They can't see each other before the wedding. I have to go." Angela gave Hodgin's a quick peck and left to find Temperance.

Angela took off to Hairsation, the hair salon where the girls were getting their hair done and was relieved when she saw the hair dressed putting the final touch on Temperance's hair.

"Thank God you are still here sweetie."

"Where else would I be?"

"Just making sure you didn't sneak off to find your night in shining FBI issued body armor!"

"It took both of us to keep her here." Stephanie replied.

Cam and Stephanie had already had their hair done and Angela was up next. "Stephanie?" Angela called Booth's sister over to the side of the salon.

"Yes Angela?"

"I need you to go find your brother. I am not sure where he went but he disappeared this morning. Go by their apartment and the Jeffersonian and see if he is there. You can take my car and here is a spare key to their apartment." Angela handed her the keys.

"I wonder where he is. He wouldn't back out though, I know that for sure. Seeley is so in love with that woman, no one could pull him away from today."

"I know but I would feel better knowing where he is."

"I agree, no problem. I will be back before you know it."

"Thanks sweetie."

"Oh nothing, I just wanted her to go by and make sure everything was coming along in the garden. Nothing to worry about."

Angela got into the chair and watched as the stylist started doing her hair. About 45 minutes later they are all finished just as Stephanie walked back into the salon.

Angela spoke up first "So, was everything ready at the garden?"

Stephanie caught on to what Angela was doing and replied "Yes, everything is looking so beautiful. Almost ready for the ceremony." She smiled at Temperance. "I am so happy to have you as a sister."

Temperance's eyes filled with tears and she stepped forward as she pulled Stephanie into a hug. "I am happy to have you as a sister too."

"Okay, we need to get dress pretty quickly. It will be time to be at the Jeffersonian before we know it." Temperance said as she stepped back.

"And we still have to go get our make up done." Angela said with a smile.

Temperance headed out to the car as Angela turned to Stephanie "Everything okay?"

"Yep, everything is great. No need to worry about Seeley." She said with a smile.

The quartet headed off to their next stop of getting their make up done before arriving at the Jeffersonian.
