Temperance put down her fork and rubbed her stomach, Booth had made quite a breakfast and she had eaten way more than she could handle at one setting. But it was hard not to gorge yourself, Booth's cooking skills surprised her,the man could make and omelet.
Booth sat back in his chair and watched his son eat his third helping of fruit salad, no one had to know his mom had sent the fruit salad over for a birthday present a few days ago, getting his birthday confused with his brothers. Sometimes his mother had a knack for forgetting things, like when his birthday was, or when her own birthday was for that matter.
Either way he had found the perfect use for the early birthday present, feeding his hungry guests, two of his favorite people in the world, his son and his partner. "Whats wrong Bones? You look like your about to hurl, is my cooking really that bad?" "No, Booth it was delicious. I just ate to much, I really shouldn't have had that second omelet." "You need some medicine? I have heart burn medicine and peptobismol, will any of that help?"
Brennan looked at her partners worried face and smiled at him, he could take the simplest things so seriously sometimes."I'll be fine,Booth. I have some rolades in my purse." Parker watched Temperance get up and walk into the living room to get her purse, then turned to his father and widend his eyes, and idea popping into his little mind. "You know what Daddy? Bones can go Shopping with us! You said that we could go to Toys R us today and get me a knew remote control car, and Dr.Bones can go with us and help me pick it out. We can spend the whole day together!"
"I don't know, Parker. I think Bones has had enough of us for one day." Booth joked. It was one thing to eat breakfast with Temperance Brennan, but shopping with her didn't really seem like it could end that well. Sure Booth looked forward to spending time with Brennan every time he got to. But he just didn't know how well she would like going and shopping for toys.Trying to explain to Parker that some grown ups didn't like to shop for toys with him was hard to do.
Before Booth could attempt to explain this to his son, Parker had already ran into the living room and asked Brennan hiself."Bones? Do you want to go shopping with me to get my toy car? Daddy promised I could have one and were going to get one today, and I thought you could come and help me pick it out. I don't really know if girls like toy cars, but we can shop were you want to shop too!"
Temperance looked over the smiling six year old, he was just like his father in a sense. Getting what he wanted with his award winning smile. How could she possably say no to him? But maybe it was best to talk to Booth about going shopping with them, she didn't want to intrude. "Maybe you should ask your dad if I could come first,Parker. He might have something special planned for just the two of you."
Parker rolled his eyes and grabbed Brennan by the hand dragging her into the kitchen were Booth was busy cleaning up the mess from breakfast."Daddy?! I already asked you once, can Bones come and go toy shopping with us? She says I have to ask you." "I don't care Bub. It's all up to her. But you can't force her to do something she doesn't want to do."
Temperance laughed silently at Booth's comment remembering the times were he himself had burst into her office and declared that they were going away, which, on most occasions was something that she did not want to do, and of coarse had been made to do. "I'll go,Booth. I only have some paperwork to finish, and it can wait until tomorrow."Brennan found herself answering Parker's question before she even had time to think about it.
The only thing that really worried her, was how long she could put off her papaer work, and get by with it.
