Ok so here's the thing… This story is DEFINITELY continuing after the show tonight. I'll wrap up most of the stuff that has to do with the actual burial (ie JA) in this chapter.

The Hospital

It had grown dark outside the windows of the hospital. Angela had long since fallen asleep in the lifeless arms of the man she loved. The sound of a rough voice if what finally woke her from her dreamless sleep.

"Just friends, huh?" Jack coughed as he struggled to speak.

Angela jolted into an upward position. She quickly grabbed the cup of water on the bedside table as she watched him struggle through his dry throat. Once he had been satisfied Angela replaced the cup on the table and slapped Jack's arm.

"Ow!" He rubbed his arm with a frown. "What the hell was that for?"

"Don't ever do that again!" She cried, her legs were off the edge of the bed now. She sat further towards the head of the bed. "I was so afraid and I-"

Angela was cut off as Jack guided her lips to his in one quick, passionate movement. Angela finally allowed her tears to fall again as her arms found their way around his neck.

"I'm so sorry Jack." Angela apologized as she rested her forehead against his.

"For what?" He asked slightly confused.

"Doubting you. Us." Angela ran her hand along his cheek. "Can you give me another chance?"

Jack smiled as he leaned into her gentle touch. "Ange, you wont ever run out of chances with me."

Tempe's Apartment

When he woke the following morning the bed beside him was cold and the blankets were piled at the foot of the bed. Booth groaned as he pushed himself out of bed and shuffled down the hallway. When he found her she was curled up on the couch reading over a file. Although he could only see the back of her shoulders and up he thought she looked beautiful. Her auburn hair laid loosely at her bare shoulders, the white of her tank top straps contrasting with the tan of her flesh.

As Booth approached he placed several soft kisses on the crook of her neck. He felt her shoulders tense beneath his lips before it quickly resolved into relaxation. A small groan rolled off her lips as she tilted her head backwards.

"Come back to bed Bones. It's Saturday." Booth whispered as he used his right hand to turn her face to his, drawing their lips together.

Temperance sighed against his lips. "Well when you put it that way." She smiled as she pressed her lips delicately to his again.

"How about we spend the afternoon… lounging around here and go out somewhere nice tonight." Booth hopped over the couch to sit next to her as he spoke.

Temperance set the manila folder on the coffee table before snuggling into Booth's side. "Sounds like a nice plan." She sighed as Booth placed a kiss to the top of her head. "So just lounging around?" Tempe raised an eyebrow as she looked at him.

Booth wrapped his hands in her hair as he laid her back on the empty couch behind her, his smile stretched from ear to ear. "Of sorts."

Ok there is only 13 minutes until the episode of epic proportions… read and review please.
