"Constance!"
Brennan's eyes flew open and she shoved Booth off her, her cheeks flushed red and she felt like a naughty school girl.
Booth almost fell onto the floor, he wasn't embarrassed though. He had a little smile playing on his lips.
"I am so sorry. I never meant to-"
Booth interrupted him.
"Never meant to try it on with my fiancée?"
Benjamin bowed his head in shame.
Brennan didn't know quite what to say just yet so she waited until Booth and Benjamin had finished.
"I'd like to left alone." She said quietly.
Booth tried not to look too hurt but she saw the look in his eyes and she watched as they both reluctantly left her bedroom.
Brennan decided to get changed and take off her make-up.

A few hours later she was in the nearest club having a glass of wine by herself. She had told Booth that she needed some fresh air and would be back later, whether he believed her or not was a different story.
The music was so loud it helped drown out the thoughts in her head; instead she just concentrated on drinking her double vodka with cranberry juice.
She ran a hand through her hair and sighed. She was playing back the moment in her bedroom where she had started to kiss Booth back and realized that she had been turned on by him.
She hadn't realized that Booth had been sat next to her for at least ten minutes until she looked around to see the club getting fuller.
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
Booth took a sip of his beer and smiled at her.
"Same thing you are, having a drink."
"Following me you mean." She accused.
He shook his head and pushed the bowl of nuts towards her. She looked at them then pushed them back towards him.
"Fancy a dance?" he asked.
"I don't think that's appropriate after earlier."
"What? We only kissed. Not like we haven't done that before."
"This was different Booth."
"Why?"
Brennan opened her mouth to respond but found no words came out; she frowned and went back to staring at her drink.
"Why don't we go and get something to eat. I'll even cook."
Brennan smiled and let Booth take her back to there beach house for a late meal. He took her hand in his and smiled at her.

He poured Brennan a glass of wine and made her sit on the sofa with her feet up; he turned on the radio as he started to rummage through cupboards and draws.
"What are you making?"
"I haven't got a clue." He replied. "Maybe pasta."
He closed the cupboard and then joined Brennan on the sofa.
"I thought you were making dinner." She said a few minutes later.
"I was going to. I probably still will. I just can't get that kiss out of my head Temperance."
"Booth, it was a caught in the moment kind of situation. Just forget about it, I have."
Booth raised his eyebrows and looked at her, he didn't believe that.
"So… if it happened again?"
She turned to look at him and smiled.
"It
won't happen again. We're partners."
He took the glass of
wine out of her and put it down on the table. He leant in towards her
and stared deep into her eyes.
"What if we wanted it to happen again?" he asked softly.
"Booth I-"
Before she could finish her sentence his lips where softly touching hers, teasing them. Just as she was about to lean in closer and seal the kiss he moved away and shrugged.
"I guess you're right. The moment has passed."
He got back up and headed towards the kitchen with a big grin on his face, leaving Brennan with a little smile on her face and her slowly shaking her head. She couldn't what he had just done and that she had fallen for it.

Benjamin was pacing in his bedroom next to his four poster bed. He wasn't happy that Constance was with her fiancé and not him. And now he thought his chances of getting her where ruined. But if the chances where ruined he would make new ones, he was going to get Constance one way or another…

Have just moved house and I'm 6 months pregnant so just trying to find the time to update as I'm either napping or decorating. Anyway, hope you enjoyed and there is still plenty to come.
