Chapter 6: Inside Your Heaven
Brennan was a dead skeleton when she was spun around and pulled into a deep kiss by Booth, until she pulled away (to Booth's disappointment).
"Do we have a case?" Brennan asked, just as Angela walked in, which they didn't notice.
"What, I can't visit my girlfriend?" Booth asked defensibly.
"Sweetie, did Booth just say 'girlfriend.'" Angela said it as a statement not a question.
"Yeah, why?" Brennan asked, just noticing her. She soon covered her ears as Angela squealed. Angela was about to ramble on about how they were meant to be when Booth stopped her.
"I appreciate the excitement, but we actually have a case."
"How come you didn't say that before the scream?" Brennan piped in a little angry.
"You didn't notice the file," he said shrugging.
"I guess we oughta go," Brennan said as she waved to Angela and began walking with Booth to the SUV.
"What was with the scream?" Cam asked as she walked toward Angela.
"Booth and Brennan are finally a couple!"
"Finally, I thought we were gonna have to lock them in a closet."
"Maybe, I should've tried that."
"Maybe." Cam left.
--------------------------------
"Honestly, why was I there if it was just animal bones?" Brennan asked as they were walking back from the SUV.
"How were they supposed to know?"
"It was obvious."
"For you… besides you got a chance to be with me." Booth flashed her his 'charm' smile, which she didn't notice.
"Well …true."
"Did you just agree with something I just said?"
"…Apparently."
It was plain silence until Booth pulled in front of the Jeffersonian.
"Hey, Bones, you wanna have dinner tonight?"
Brennan turned towards him. She couldn't help but wonder if they were moving to fast. She always wondered whether or not they should be a couple. They had their moments, but never acted on it. Now it was a whole new step, she never expected to be with Booth. When they first met, Brennan saw Booth as a cocky, annoying FBI agent, who she could stand working with. Then yesterday, they were locking lips in her office.
"Bones, are you okay?"
"Yeah… I'm fine, just exhausted. Dinner sounds great. Are you cooking or are we going to a restaurant?"
"Restaurant. So, pick you up at eight?"
"Sure."
After sharing a quick kiss, longer than each of them expected, Brennan got out and Booth drove away.
--------------------------------
Cam sat in her office pondering her thoughts. She knew Brennan and Booth would be a couple eventually, she never knew it would be this quick. Ever since that faithful night, Cam and Booth had a relationship, which she wanted ever since she started working near him. She never knew it would never be, so she tried getting over it. She got no luck.
With every new case, she pined for him even more. She was hopelessly falling for Booth and she hated it. No matter how many guys she dated or got drunk with, she would always think of Booth. There was one thing she had to do, no matter how many people she hurt by doing so, including him…
----------------------------------
Angela just left Brennan's apartment. She was helping Brennan with an outfit for her date, which unfortunately, she didn't have much to work with. She wondered what Booth had in planned for Brennan. She was always hoping that Brennan's 'knight in FBI standard issue body armor' would finally figure out the obvious. Hopefully, the date will go well… She couldn't help but chuckle at her dirty thought. She got in her car and drove away…
Brennan was nervous and she knew it. Why is this so different? This is Booth we're talking about here! It just feels so… different when he's here. What could it mean? It doesn't make sense to m-
A knock at the door interrupted her thoughts. She opened the door and on the other side was Booth. "Hey," she said, desperately hoping her tone of voice didn't give away her nervousness. "Hey, you ready to go?" Booth was barely making eye contact. He was nervous about what was planned, but he had confidence that she'd like it.
"Yeah, just let me go get my jacket and purse." She got her things wondering what was planned. They left, after Brennan locked her door Booth placed her hand on her lower back, which would be something that would never change. The drive was silent, except for the radio on low, but high enough to hear. Booth pulled in front of his apartment, leaving Brennan confused.
"I thought we were going to a restaurant?"
"We were, but I got a better idea."
Brennan's eyebrow arched in wonder of what he thought would be better. "Just trust me," Booth said knowing this was better. He got out, she followed. They took the elevator to the highest floor, and then took the stairs, still in complete silence. He stopped, turned around and broke the silence. "Bones, can you do me a favor?"
"What?"
"Close your eyes."
"What, why? Are you trying to surprise me?"
"Yes, now do it before you spoil anything else."
She did so, Booth leading the way. Good thing I didn't wear high high heels. Brennan thought as she walked up a few more stairs. She heard a door open and felt a light breeze against her skin. Booth let her open her eyes and she knew what was in front of her was better than a fancy restaurant. She was in front of a table set for two, with a single rose in a vase in the center, two champagne glasses and a bottle of her favorite wine, and two plates with their favorite Thai foods.
"No candles?" Brennan asked.
Booth glared, "Why criticize? Besides, does it look like we need it?"
Brennan looked around. The moon was a big and bright, the stars equally bright, the city lights lighting the rooftop's surroundings. She shrugged. "Exactly," Booth said, he gestured for her to sit. The dinner wasn't awkward at all, they talked about everything but work.
"How did you get all this up here?" Brennan asked.
Booth shrugged, "I know people."
"This is … amazing."
"Glad you like it, but I still have a few things left for the night."
That was that. They left, hand in hand, walking on a lane that led through a park nearby Booth's apartment. They heard music nearby, setting the perfect mood. They sat on a bench, where they ended their conversation and enjoyed the scenery and the music.
I've been down, now I'm blessedFelt a revelation coming around
This is right, it's so amazing
Every time I see you I'm alive
Your all I've got, you lift me up
The sun and the moonlight,
All my dreams are in your eyes
It was great for both of them. They were alone, enjoying the silence. Just being with each other made the night great. Now, they didn't have to ignore the sexual tension, they could just roll with it. It seemed like a weight was lifted when they finally gave in to the tension.
I wanna be inside your heaven,
Take me to the place you cry from
When a storm blows your way
I wanna be the earth that holds you
Every bit of air you're breathing in
Will soothe me when
I wanna be inside your heaven
Brennan rested her head on his shoulder while she placed her hand on his thigh. She knew this was right. She forgot all her worries and enjoyed being in the now. Knowing that Booth was here was good enough for her.
When we touch, when we loveThe stars light up, the wrong becomes undone
Naturally, my soul surrenders
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams are in your eyes
Booth placed his hand on hers. He was happy about tonight. He was always attracted to her, she just never knew (even though he gave out the obvious signals). Everything was … perfect. Bones wasn't like any other woman he dated, she accepted his past. She didn't care about the fact he was a former sniper or what happened while they were partners, at least he hoped not… This night was perfect; because he was with the woman he loved…
When minutes turn to days and yearsIf mountains fall I'll still be here
Holding you until the day I die
They looked into each other's eyes. They leaned in closer, filling the space between them, a kiss that was passionate, special, and romantic was something they both needed. They also needed each other…
I wanna be inside your heavenTake me to the place you cry from
When a storm blows your way-
Booth placed his hand on her cheek, his fingers soon tracing her jaw line, Brennan 's hand doing the same. His tongue soon making it's way into her mouth. The kiss lasted for a few minutes, till they were out of breath. The song was over and the enjoyed the view of the moon and the stars, then decided to leave.
---------------------------------------
The drive was once again silence. He walked her to her apartment. Silence.
"I –I had a great time," Brennan said breaking the silence.
"You don't regret saying 'yes?'" That slipped out of Booth's mouth, an obvious sign of foot- in- the- mouth disease.
"Never."
They shared a quick kiss. As Booth was walking away, Brennan said, "Good night Booth."
"Good night Temperance."
Every bit of air your breathing in
Will soothe me when
I wanna be inside your heaven
