Brennan walked into her best friends' office and sat on her desk.

"What's up Bren?" Angela turned to face her smiling

"I just agreed to go on a date with Booth" Brennan replied apprehensively

"Ugh! Finally, I had almost given up on you two." Angela threw up her hands in exasperation

"Ange! Come on, a little help here." Brennan laughed

"Sorry, I'm really happy for you Bren, I'm glad you decided to take my advice." Angela clapped her hands in excitement "Okay, first of all – have you got an outfit?"

"I'm sure I have something appropriate. Could you come over and help me pick one out?" She felt like a teenager on her first date

"Of course! Now, what time is he picking you up?" Angela was becoming more excited by the minute

"Seven"

"Ok that gives us three hours, let's go!" Angela grabbed Brennan's arm and pulled her off the desk towards the door

"Ange I still have work to do" Brennan complained, as she was dragged toward her office

"Do it tomorrow, we have more important things to take care of" Angela replied confidently, making a bee line towards Brennan's office to pick up her stuff.

Two and a half hours later Brennans' room looked like a tornado had just torn it apart. Clothes were all over the bed and shoes littered the floor.

"Bren, are you done? Let me see." Angela was lying on the bed, exhausted by the sheer effort of finding the perfect outfit

"Okay, I'm coming out." Brennan replied through the bathroom door as she turned the lock slowly and opened it.

Angela gasped "that's perfect Bren! Now sit down and I'll do your make up"

"Thanks Ange." Brennan hugged her best friend before obediently sitting down at the dresser "just, don't over do it with the make up okay?"

Angela laughed "Don't worry Bren, You don't even really need make-up, I'll keep you looking natural"

By ten to seven, Angela had completed her masterpiece. Before making her way out, she hugged her best friend and offered some last minute advice "Have fun Bren, and remember listen to your heart, it won't let you down, not when it comes to Booth"

Brennan nodded and hugged Angela one more time before closing the door after her best friend. She decided to get her room cleaned while waiting on Booth, she needed a distraction anyway.

Within five minutes her room was spotless again, at least it looked that way at a glance, she had thrown her clothes unfolded, and unhanged into the closet, with her shoes thrown on top. Just as she closed her bedroom door she heard Booths familiar knock on her front door.

Walking slowly toward the door, she took a deep breath before pulling it open.

"Hi" she said simply "just let me grab my purse"

"Wow…you look great Bones!" Booth smiled as he stepped through the door.

"You don't look too bad yourself" She laughed

He watched as she walked to the lounge room in search of her bag. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. She was wearing an emerald green dress that went to just below her knee, with a small black cardigan on top. The dress had spaghetti straps and the top dipped down slightly, it hugged her figure to around her waist where it flowed down, swaying as she walked. She looked amazing.

"Okay, I'm ready Booth" she said walking towards the door

"Great, let's get this show on the road" Booth replied shutting the door behind them

"We're going to see a show?" Bones walked beside him, her eyebrows raised in surprise

"Uh... no, It's a saying… it doesn't matter. We're going to that new Italian place just outside the city. I hear they have amazing food" He said as he opened the car door for her to enter.

And so began their romantic story. The restaurant was perfect, the food was delectable and expensive just as Booth knew it would be. They conversed over every topic imaginable and bickered as usual. Afterwards they went to the Washington monument because it was their place, they sat on the steps laughing and sharing childhood stories while star gazing. He fell for her more and more every second, leaving him wondering what took him so long. She too felt more at ease, safer than at the start of any other relationship she'd ever had, her heart told her that Seeley Booth was the man she wanted to grow old with, and for once her mind agreed.

"I had an amazing time tonight Booth, Thank you" Brennan turned around as they reached her doorstep

"Does that mean I get a second date?" Booth raised an eyebrow and gave her his best charm smile

"I wouldn't be against it" She laughed at his antics

He chuckled too, and then cleared his throat "Well it's late. Goodnight Temperance, I'll see you tomorrow" He then took her hand and kissed her cheek softly

Her stomach was doing flips, all because he had used her given name. She barely choked out a "Goodnight" before she turned and stepped into her apartment. He waited to hear the locks slide firmly closed before walking away.
