A/N: MIDTERMS ARE OVER!! WHOO!! Sorry for the lack of updates but midterms were time consuming. Here's a fairly long chapter! ENJOY!
Chapter 5: Resistible
Booth woke the next morning in a room lit dimly by the gray sky outside. Carefully, he lifted his head off the pillow making sure not to wake Brennan and looked outside the window. It was still snowing, and although he loved that that meant Brennan would probably be there longer, he dreaded another day of Rebecca. Booth rested his head back down on the pillow and shifted his attention to his partner who was lying tranquilly in his arms. Her face was turned toward him on his chest, and her hand lay softly on his abdomen. Booth rested his hand on the small of her back which was exposed to him because her shirt had ridden up over night. Just then, Brennan's eyes fluttered open. He wasn't sure if it was because he'd just touched her, or because she was just waking up.
Brennan blinked her eyes a few times to clear her vision. Coming to her senses seeing her hand on Booth's bare chest, she immediately positioned herself otherwise.
"Oh. I'm sorry." She said visibly embarrassed.
"Gee Bones, I didn't know how irresistible I was." He teased.
Brennan turned toward him defensively "You are very resistible."
"I don't know about that Bones. You practically threw yourself at me"
"Threw myself at you?" she asked, her brow wrinkling up in frustration, "Booth, I was sleeping, unconscious. I can't control my body positions in my sleep."
Booth watched her as her mouth curved upward into a smile he only saw when his partner had something to say to turn the conversation onto him.
"And how do you know it was me who put me in that position? Maybe it was you, who pulled me closer to you."
Booth smiled, "Ohh Bones, I did not. And I was unconscious, how would I even remember? You are very resistible"
"Would you quit imitating me?"
"I'm joking with you, not imitating you. And we've been up what? A good 5 minutes, and we've already come up with a way to start with each other. New record."
"We didn't you did." Brennan corrected, "You're the one who started accusing me of throwing myself at you."
"You're the one who turned this whole conversation around on me."
"I was just making an observation. I wasn't turning the conversation around on you." She replied shaking her head.
Booth moved in closer to her which usually happened when they were arguing, "Oh n-n-no. You definitely turned this conversation around on me. Ya know what? Let's just drop this. Go back to sleep it's only 7:30." He replied glancing at the clock on the wall.
"But I'm not tired." She protested.
"Well I am. You tend to do that to a person."
Brennan huffed, "Fine, I'll attempt to go to sleep. But I won't."
Booth closed his eyes and rested his head on top of hers, "Fair enough Bones, fair enough."
About an hour later, Parker was just waking up next to his mother who was still asleep. He carefully climbed out of bed and headed toward the window.
"Mommy! It's snowing!" Parker squealed standing on his tip toes to get a better look. Noticing his mother wasn't answering her left the window and stood by her side.
"Mommy, it's snowing!" He repeated shaking her excitedly.
Rebecca groaned having been woken up, "Sure sweetie, now go back to sleep."
"But I want to go outside and play!"
Rebecca pulled the blankets closer to her face and nuzzled downward, "Oh, go ask you're father. I'm sure he'll play with you."
Parker dashed out of the room the minute of the suggestion.
"Daddy!" Parker called as he ran through the hallway. Once Parker reached the living room, which is where his father had said he would be sleeping, he realized he wasn't there. Thinking for a moment, Parker decided to go ask 'Dr.Bones' where his father was, and ran toward the spare room.
Parker's actions became slower once he reached the door. Quietly, Parker turned the door knob with both hands and peered inside the crack in the door with one eye. Opening the door slightly more for a better look, Parker was now able to see the whole room. Looking over at the bed, his father was the first one he saw. He appeared to be sleeping as well as Brennan who was in his arms.
Closing the door softly, he walked across the hallway into his father's room and crawled back into bed.
"Daddy wouldn't play?" Rebecca asked groggily feeling the weight shift on the bed.
"Daddy and Dr. Bones are still sleeping."
"Oh." Rebecca pondered on her son's words for a moment, "Daddy and Dr. Bones?"
"Uhuh. They're in the other room. But shhh…they're sleeping."
In a moment Rebecca went from being groggy and tired to wide awake.
"Oh ok. I'm only going to go check on them." Rebecca forced a smile and got hastily out of bed. Walking across the hall, Rebecca slowly opened the door and walked into the room where Booth and Brennan were sleeping. She stood there for a moment, watching how Booth subconsciously rubbed her thigh and how Brennan's nose was pressed against Booth's neck. After she had enough of watching them sleep, Rebecca purposely slammed the door behind her to wake them both up.
Booth jumped up with a start, "Whoaaaa. Rebecca, what the hell are you doing?" He asked rubbing his eyes.
Brennan sat up to understand what was going on.
Rebecca folded her arms and shifted her weight onto her right leg, "I thought you were sleeping on the couch."
"I was."
"You were…until I was sleeping apparently." Rebecca's look went from annoyed to angry.
He nudged Brennan, "I was bored, and I came in here to visit Bones here."
"Sure, you came to visit her. You ended up sleeping with her too." Rebeccca nodded her head in Brennan's direction.
"He just slept in the same bed as me. He didn't sleep with me." Brennan defended.
Rebecca picked up the lacy black bra which was on top of the pile of Brennan's clothes she wore yesterday, and threw it at them.
"Why isn't she wearing that then?"
Booth caught the bra, "I don't know." Booth replied looking confused.
"He didn't take it off me or something if that's what you think." Brennan added, trying to hide her embarrassment seeing Booth holding her bra.
"Look," Rebecca began raising her voice, "I don't want to know. You two can participate in all the sex you want. Hell, Booth can take off your panties too if he didn't already! But as long as I'm in this apartment with my son, you two will have to contain yourselves."
"He's our son, first off and secondly, Brennan and I were not having sex. And even if we were…"
"But we weren't." Brennan clarified.
"Right." Booth continued, "But even if we were, why do you care so much?"
Rebecca huffed, "Just get out of the bed. Your son wants to play in the snow."
Before Booth could answer, Rebecca walked out the room and closed the door behind her.
Booth and Brennan sat in silence for a moment.
"So…" Booth began, "Why aren't you wearing this?" He asked with a sly smile holding up the bra.
She shrugged, "I don't sleep with a bra." She said simply taking the bra out of his hands, "Now turn around so I could put it on."
Booth turned his back toward his partner and sighed, "God I wish this damn snow would melt, or something."
"Miss having your apartment to yourself?" Brennan asked removing her shirt.
Booth shook his head, "I don' mind you or Parker, it's just Reb…"
Just then, the door swung open and Rebecca barged into the room, "And one more thing…"
Brennan quickly covered her breasts with her hands as Booth sat up.
"I don't care Booth. About you and Brennan." Rebecca finished.
Booth seeing Brennan standing in nothing but her underwear quickly grabbed a blanket off of the bed and draped it over her shoulders. Brennan smiled to herself at his gesture.
"Rebecca. Enough!" Booth told Rebecca sternly holding onto Brennan's shoulders.
"Don't raise your voice to me, Seely." Her annoyed look returning.
Booth gave her a look which suggested he was containing himself from exploding on her. Catching on, Rebecca exited the room indisposed.
Booth dropped his hands from her shoulders and let one hand rub her back, "Hey uh, I'm sorry about her and…that…whole thing."
"I should get dressed." Brennan responded, not looking at him to hide her reddened cheeks.
Booth walked over to the door and locked it, "To prevent any further mishaps." He smiled playfully at her.
She smiled and looked down, "Yes."
"Let me know when you're done." He said turning himself toward the wall.
Brennan threw the blanket back onto the bed and picked up her bra which she had attempted to fasten on before, "Right."
After slipping on her pants, she reached for the camisole she had under her jacket the day before, "Thank you Booth."
He smiled toward the wall, "For what?"
Brennan walked toward him once she had pulled her camisole over her torso, "For that blanket before." She replied stepping in front of him to come into eye contact.
Booth shrugged and leaned one of his hands on the wall above her shoulder, "No problem Bones. I know how Rebecca could sometimes pick the worst timing for everything." He laughed, "You have to admit, that was pretty bad timing." Booth added trying to keep his eyes focused on her eyes. The camisole she was wearing showed just enough cleavage to lure his eyes elsewhere.
She nodded, "Pretty bad." Brennan laughed.
Booth couldn't help it. He stole a quick glance downward before looking back up at her face, hoping she wouldn't notice.
Brennan smirked, "Typical male."
He should've known better. Nothing gets pasts her. Nothing.
"What do you mean?" he asked playing dumb.
She folded her arms across her chest intentionally pushing her breasts upward, "You tell me."
He used every bit of his will power to stay focused, "I'm not catching on." He lied.
"You were looking at my boobs."
He laughed guiltily, "I was not I…"
She cocked her head to the side, "Booth…?"
"Okay so maybe for a second."
A sarcastic grin appeared on her face, "Very unprofessional Agent Booth."
"Well maybe you aren't as resistible as I thought you were."
He couldn't believe he just said that.
Brennan looked at him confused, "Wait, what?"
Not knowing what to say, Booth took the risk and leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips. Opening her eyes, Brennan looked at him stunned. He thought for sure, she was going to chew his head off right now. Before he could open his mouth to apologize, Brennan wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him hard, intensifying the kiss. Booth in response tightly wound his arms around her waist and kissed her back, darting his tongue into her mouth. Brennan let out a tiny moan as Booth closed the gap between them entirely by pressing his hips against hers. Their feelings for each other had been bottled up for so long and at this moment, all walls were dropped as they crossed the line, and a sense of relief drifted over them. The two were interrupted when a heavy knocking came from the other side of the door, followed by the rattling of the door handle.
"Seely, Brennan, shouldn't you be out by now?!" Rebecca called from the other side of the door.
Brennan broke away from Booth and smiled, "Coming Rebecca."
Smiling happily Booth followed Brennan toward the door, feeling very victorious.
