Chapter 6

Booth had to force himself to walk at a normal pace up the stairs to her apartment. He was dying to see her, but he was still a little curious about where she had been at lunch. Usually he had to forcibly drag her away from her office to eat, but today she had gone out for lunch and had left early. He knocked on the door still puzzling over her actions of the day.

"Hey." Brennan answered the door without checking the peephole first.

"Bones, you didn't look out first." Booth immediately began lecturing her.

"I knew it was you." Bones smiled at him, helping him remove his coat and hanging it up in the closet.

"Oh, so you are superman now?"

"I don't know what that means."

"Come on, Bones. X-ray vision. You have got to get a TV."

"Aren't you even going to kiss me?" Brennan asked smiling at how easily they could fall into an argument.

Booth looked at her in surprise and obvious pleasure as he leaned over and kissed her. "So, how was your day?" Booth asked her after the few seconds it always seemed to take to clear his head after kissing her.

"It was great. I made that macaroni and cheese you like so much. And about that TV…" Brennan led the way into the living room where she had a brand new HD flat screen handing on the wall with a new DVD player and a variety of DVD's sitting on the shelf to the side.

"Wow! When did you get this Bones?" Booth couldn't believe she had finally gotten a TV.

"Today." Brennan said simply with a slight shrug.

"Why did you buy all this Bones?" Booth looked at her curiously.

"Because I'm not going anywhere either." Temperance looked him in his eyes as they both remembered their talk from this morning. "This way you can teach me some of those popular phrases everyone seems to understand." Brennan was starting to look a little nervous wondering if what she had done was completely ridiculous.

Booth smiled as he pulled her to him and thoroughly kissed her. It may have not been a declaration of love, but Bones had gone out and bought all this stuff thinking about him. He walked over and began sorting through the movies he was not surprised to see a variety of old movies. He smiled remembering their time in Vegas. He could still see her pulling two grand out of her dress.

"I wasn't sure what you liked, but the guy at the store highly recommended these." Brennan was holding up The Godfather box set.

"Bones, don't tell me you have never seen The Godfather."

Brennan just gave him a look that spoke volumes about her cinematic knowledge.

"Bones, you have been deprived." He gave her a big smile as he popped the movie in the dvd player and pulled her down onto the couch next to him.

"What about dinner?"

"Lets just eat it in here." Booth kissed her and they set out to enjoy their first real date.
