Booth had spent the last half hour talking himself out of calling her for fear of pushing her even farther away. He jumped when his cell phone starting vibrating across the desk. Looking at the display he knew he had made the right choice.
"Hey Bones."
"Hey are you still at your office?"
"Yea, I was just getting ready to leave. Where are you?"
"I'm home. I left a little early. Would you like to come over here for dinner?" Booth could hear a touch of nervousness in her voice he found very endearing. Imagine his Bones afraid of something.
"You want me to come to your place? We could go out if you want."
"No. I am making you dinner. You just come on over and we will have dinner together."
"When do you want me there?" He was ready to run out the door right that moment.
"When are you leaving work?" She countered.
"Now." She could hear the smile in his voice.
"Well, than I guess I will see you in about ten or fifteen minutes."
"Sounds great. See you then." He gabbed his keys and walked out with a smile on his face. 'She didn't run.'
