Temperance took the phone and dialed his number. She needed to talk to him. She was forwarded to his voicemail. She cursed loudly. Where was he? She needed him so desperately. She had tried to go to bed, but she hadn't been there ten minutes before she got up again. She frowned at herself in the mirror. Stupid woman. You had three days to confess your love. Maybe now it's too late. Maybe he doesn't want you at all. If you had told him before he at least wouldn't have had the chance to run away. There was a knock on the door. She jumped. Could it be him…
She opened the door and there he was. Her heart missed a beat, than started to race.
"Booth…please…come in." she managed to say. He walked past her, hands in his pockets, eyes to the floor. As they finally turned towards each other their eyes locked. Booth smiled. He extended his arms from his sides.
"Come here, Temperance." he said. She stepped towards him and pulled herself close towards him. He locked his arms around her, their bodies now pressed together in full length. They stood like this for a while. Booth took her shoulders and pushed her gently back so he could look her in the eyes. He finally leaned in and kissed her. Very soft and gentle at the beginning, his lips just barely brushing over hers. She opened her mouth a bit, granting his tongue access. He deepened the kiss, still keeping it slow but now with their tongues dancing and circling. She cupped his face with her hands, brushing her index finger along his lips, as they parted.
"I'm really happy you came over, Booth. I just before tried to call you to invite you over. I missed you so much." she said. He cut her off with another deep kiss. A soft moan escaped his throat.
"You have no idea how much I missed you." he whispered and kissed her again. His fingers were exploring her back and hips.
"Will you stay with me tonight?" she asked. He smiled and just watched her for some time.
"I will stay with you as long as you want me to." He answered and started to kiss her again.
The next morning she – like the days before – woke when it was already daylight streaming into her bedroom. She squinted against the sun and realized that she was not alone. She smiled. It had not been a dream then. It had really happened. She closed her eyes again, when the pictures of the previous night came back to her mind. She had never before experienced something like that with a man. He had been so tender and at the same time very passionate. She remembered it must have been about 4am when they finally got some sleep. She yawned and lifted her head. It was no nearly 8am. She needed to call Cam and tell her she was not coming today. Booth had already told her that he would be taking a day off. She had decided to do the same. She freed herself from his embrace and climbed out of bed. She took out her phone and dialed Cams number.
"Hi Cam, it's me. Temperance. Yes, I'm back home, but, you know I still feel tired. I think I'm taking today off, if that's ok for you. Right? Ok, thanks Cam." She put down the phone. As she turned Booth stood behind her. He was leaning on the doorframe.
"You feel tired, huh? So tired that you can't even work?" he faked a concerned look and slid an arm around her waist.
"I think it's best if I take you straight back to bed." She laughed.
"Nice try Booth. First I have to call Angela, then I'll come back to bed, alright?" He shook his head and pulled her close.
"Wrong answer. You're coming back to bed with me now." He pushed her forward while kissing her. She closed her eyes. Her body was all ready for him again, but she wanted to make this little call first.
"Booth" she murmured. "Booth please! Let me go, just for 5 seconds." She tried to push him away, well she wanted to try, but her arms didn't seem to want to do what they were told. He finally let go after a last passionate kiss.
"All right but don't make it to long." He said, smiling at her. She turned her back to him and dialed Angela's number.
"Hey Sweetie, I'm dying to see you. Where are you?" was Angela's answer on the phone. Temperance laughed
"I'm actually calling to say that I'm taking a day off today. I'm really tired. The whole thing was quite…exhausting." She heard Booth chuckle from behind her. She ignored him.
"Exhausting? Has that something to do with Booth? What did he do to you?" she asked with her "give-me-all-the-juicy-details-voice. Temperance sighed and looked over to Booth that was lying naked on her bed.
"Angela, really, nothing happened out there. I…" she was cut off by Booth shouting from behind her. "Will you come back to bed now as you promised? The five seconds are up!" Temperance's jaw dropped as she turned to face the now laughing man on her bed. Angela squealed over the phone.
"Oh my God, I knew it! He is there with you. Which makes me believe that he's been there all night. Which is why you didn't get much sleep. Oh my God, Sweetie, that's so great." Temperance sighed and left the bedroom, shooting a warning glance towards Booth.
"Right, Ange. Fine. But it happened when we got back, though. We both found out that we would rather spend the night together again instead of being alone. So he came over yesterday."
"Is he good in bed? Please tell me. Give me some details. Please!"
"Angela!"
"Oh come on, please!!" Temperance grinned.
"Very good." She said. "Better than everything I have ever experienced. I better go back now. I really should try to get some more sleep because I didn't get so much at night. Ok?" She could nearly hear Angela's jaw drop. She would have expected much, but this?
"Wow. Well, ok. You two have fun!" she said, feeling happy for her friend.
