Chapter 2
"They're sooo cute!"
"Angie, get your camera!" Hodgens ordered Angela.
"No, I'll just use my phone," she replied.
"They'd kill us if we sent that picture around," Hodgens pondered.
"We'd being dying for a good cause," Angela retorted.
"Why are we dying?" Cam asked sounding quite concerned.
Hodgens and Angela both nodded towards the pair fast asleep in Brennan's office.
Cam just stood gawking.
"What do we do? We can't just walk in there," Angela considered.
"Why not?" Angela slapped Hodgens on the shoulder when he said that.
"I have an idea," Cam said with a sly grin on her face.
Booth nearly jumped straight from the couch when he heard the disrupting trill of his phone. Brennan snapped awake either from the ringing of Booth's phone or the man jumping up from underneath her, she wasn't sure. Booth reached for his phone, which was sitting on the coffee table in front of the couch. Brennan slid his lap and sat awkwardly next to him.
"Booth." Booth said sleepily into the phone.
"Yeah, Booth, its Cam. I was wondering when you were going to wake up. I know you love spending your time with Dr. Brennan, but you still have to go to work in the morning. By work, I mean the FBI, not Dr. Brennan's office."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Booth stammered, trying to find a rebuttal, but nothing entered his mind.
"Remember, people, security cameras, security cameras."
Those were the last words that came out of Cam's mouth before she hung up.
Booth and Brennan sat in an awkward silence until Booth spoke.
"I'm gonna go home and change before I head to work. I'll see you later. Lunch?" Booth proposed as he left his office.
"Sure," Brennan replied.
"Great. I'll pick you up at noon. Remember, we are seeing Sweets at 4, today."
"Ugh, I really don't feel like getting lectured by a twelve-year-old today," Brennan complained.
"See you later, Bones," Booth said, giving her his famous charm smile.
Brennan just glared at him as he left her office, but once he was out of sight, she laughed at him. Why did he have to be so charming, and handsome, and perfect? She stopped herself before she convinced herself of something she wasn't ready to admit. She returned to the platform and began studying her latest set of remains from limbo. Her mind began to wander to thoughts other than her job. Her mind brought her back to last night. She hadn't slept that well in years. She loved the feeling of being in Booth's arms. It just felt so natural. Stop! She needed to focus. She had to get her mind off of Booth, but every time she tried to focus on something else, her thoughts came right back to him. He was always there in her mind.
