Chapter 10- Whole Lotta Love

"Are you sure you want to tell them?" Booth says bringing the SUV to a halt in the Jeffersonian car park.

"Yes Booth, I'm sure, I spent years hiding my feelings, and I'm sick of it."

"What 'feelings' might those be?" He says with a smirk. She smiles and shakes her head.

"Don't push it Booth, you know this is hard for me."

"You're right, I'm sorry." He says as he takes her hand and begins to rub circles on the back of it with his thumb.

She looks up at him "So..how we gonna do this?"

"Well..I have a confession to make."

"What? What is it?" she grimaces, as if preparing herself for the worst.

"Well, you see when you were in the hospital; Angela kind of gave me an ultimatum." Brennan frowns at him not quite understanding where he was going with this. "She said I had to tell you how I feel or else she would do it for me."

"What! That's just.she shouldn't have forced you like that."

"But she was right, I should have told you sooner, I was just afraid of what would happen, but after Angela's ultimatum I knew I had to tell you, I wanted you to hear it from me." he leans over to whisper in her ear. "So I could tell you how amazing you are." He kisses her cheek. "How beautiful you are." He kisses the other cheek. "How clever you are." He kisses her forehead. "How much I love you." He kisses her tenderly on the lips.

Brennan blushes and smiles coyly. "I don't think Angela would have put it quite like that." She says smiling. Booth chuckles.

"You're right; I wonder what she would have said." Booth says with a look of curiosity.

"You know we don't have to wonder, I never told her what happened so unless you have, we could just go in and find out."

"You mean pretend like everything is normal, that nothing's changed."

"Yeah, and then Angela will be forced to tell me what she would have said to me."

Booth smiles. "Ok, let's go then." Booth and Brennan exit the SUV, and head towards the entrance.

"I'll go in first, you follow in 5 minutes." Brennan says as she rounds the corridor to the lab door.

"Right ok." Booth stands at the door and watches her leave.

Brennan walks across the lab floor and almost immediately Angela makes a bee-line for her.

"Bren, Sweetie." She says excitedly, giving her a hug. They walk into her office and Brennan sits down behind her desk. Angela smiles expectantly.

"So.What happened?" Angela asks raising her eyebrows suggestively.

"What? When?"

Angela sighed. "The other night obviously, did Booth talk to you?"

"No, we ate, then I was kind of tired so I went to bed, Booth kindly cleaned up, that's it. It was so nice of you to do all that but I fail to see why it was necessary."

Angela is now fuming, and at that precise moment Booth casually enters Brennan's office.

"Morning Bones, Angela."

"You!" Angela shouts, pointing to Booth. "You didn't tell her, you promised!"

Booth stands back, slightly taken aback by Angela's tone. But he says nothing just acts innocent.

"Well you leave me with no choice then." She turns to face her best friend and takes a deep breath. "Bren, Booth is hopelessly and completely in love with you and would very much like to take you home and make love to you over and over again, I believe he has a particular shower fetish involving you too."

Brennan suppresses a smile, trying to keep a straight face.

"Well then." Brennan says, a little over dramatically. She stands and walks towards him. "He won't mind if I do this then." She grabs Booth from the back of his neck and pulls him towards her for a searing kiss. A kiss that gets increasingly hotter with each second that passes. Leaving Angela both shocked and feeling a little awkward. But Angela being Angela soon realises she has been conned.

"Hold on a minute." Angela says waving her arms in disbelief. Brennan and Booth break apart smiling; they turn to look at her while still holding one another. "You two set me up!"

"Well, we were curious as to how you would tell me." Brennan explains with an innocent face. Before turning to face Booth. "And what was that about a shower fetish?" She says raising an eyebrow.

Booth blushes. "I'll explain later." He says as Angela smiles; well at least there was one new piece of information given today.

"Ok, I'll forgive you on one condition." Angela says seriously, Booth and Brennan look at each other slightly worried. Angela's tone becomes almost playful. "You, tell me everything." She says pointing to Brennan. "And you, kiss her goodbye then skedaddle. Time for some girl talk I think." Booth does just that, kissing Brennan goodbye before he walks out the door, happily tossing his poker chip in the air.

Once Booth is a safe distance away Angela turns to Brennan. "Ok missy, spill."

Brennan grins and then blushes slightly. "I love him Ange." Angela squeals before Brennan continues. "Now if only I could tell him that."

Angela smiles. "Do you want me to do it for you?" Angela jokes, earning a laugh from Brennan. Angela had never seen her friend so happy, so content. She was glad she had interfered as she listened to Brennan tell her everything that had happened over the last few days. But now she would need a new project, maybe she could blackmail them into marriage or something, it was a definite possibility, but then again maybe that was going a little too far.
