Brennan stood turning around and around in front of a large dressing room mirror, she looked at her back and the twirled back around to the front. She moved the sleeves of the dress she was wearing up then back down, then took one high heel off and put another on, then deciding that the high heel she had on her right foot matched better then the one on her left foot she threw the one on her left foot off and made one finale spin in front of the mirror.
Finally deciding that her appearance was good enough to emerge form the dressing room she unlocked the stall then tipp toed out, slightly embarrassed to be trying on clothes with Booth and Parker. When she came out both Booths stood shocked at her appearance. Booth whistled then clapped his hands together and looked at his son.
"I think we did a pretty good job, don't you think Bub?" Parker nodded his head and handed Temperance the jewelry they had bought at JCPenny, she put the earrings on and slid the ring on her finger, Booth took the necklace and clasped it behind her neck then spun her around and looked at her again. "Wow! Bones, you look fantastic!"
Brennan blushed then looked at herself in the mirror again she fingered with the neck lace then stood back brushing the sides of her dress down trying to get the wrinkles to fall out. She did look good, it scared her that Booth and his son could pick out clothes for her that flattered her every curve and brought out her blue-green eyes perfectly.
Brennan nodded her head then turned to Booth and Parker."Your turn!"

Parker watched his dad straighten his jacket for the tenth time and decided that he was coming out of the dressing room weather he was or not, he went over to the door but was quickly pulled back by his father. "You haven't put the clothes that Bones picked out for you on, Parker."
Parker sighed then picked up the jeans that Temperance had picked out, it was weird wearing clothes that a girl other than his mom had picked out for him. Maybe it was that Brennan wasn't his mom and was picking out clothes for him that scared him the most, but the fact that she actually picked out something that he was interested in wearing was surprising. He had expected something cute and cuddly and itchy, like the sweaters his grandmother mad him wear.
Booth looked at himself then helped his son slip the shirt that Temperance had picked out for him over his head, they both looked at themselves in the mirror again and stepped out of the dressing room and stood in front of Brennan. She had the dress and jewelry that they had picked out for her on and she grinned when the Booths came out of the dressing room.
"I'm good! I can't believe that Parker can actually fit those jeans I thougt they'd be to big, and Booth why didn't you put the scarf on?" Booth made a discusted face at Temperance then shook his head."Sorry, Bones. But I'm not really the type who's into wearing scarfs in the middle of May."
Brennan put her hands on her hips and looked over the boys in front of her."I think you both look great, with or without the scarf, Booth." Booth grinned at her then walked back inside the dressing room to put his own clothes back on and pay for the ones that Temperance had picked out.
"Booth you have to wear the clothes I picked out for you." "I know that, Bones. But I do have pay for them first. What would the Beruea think if I stole clothes from the mall?" "Well, take them off and let me go pay for them, then I'll hand them back to you and then you can change back into them."
Booth stopped for a moment and thought about it, the thought of standing in a dressing room half naked waiting for Brennan to pay for his clothes didn't really appeal to him."Bones, I can't let you pay for my clothes, you can take my wallet. Use the credit card though I'm a little low on cash."
Booth opened the dressing room door and handed Temperance his wallet and ushered Parker into the dressing room with him. He handed Brennan his shirt which he had already taken off anyway then closed the door and handed her his pants over the dressing room door. Parker quickly stripped down and handed Temperance his clothes, then pulled his under shirt over his head and waited for Brennan to finish paying.
When Temperance got to the counter she quickly found Booth's credit card under a few pictures of Parker and a very old gift card,then paid for the clothes and got back to Booth and Parker with a large bag in her hands. She slipped it over the dressing room door and waited for them to finish changing.
A few seconds later Booth and Parker emerged from the dressing rooms with the bag in their hands and the clothes that Brennan had picked out for them on. Temperance laughed at Booth and pulled back the shirt he had on to reveal the tag in the front not the back. "Booth! Your shirts on backwards!"
Booth looked down at his shirt surprised, then handed the bag with his other clothes in it to Parker and went back in the dressing room to switch his shirt around. While he did this Brennan talked to him over the door. "I think we should go out and eat lunch somewhere nice, we are dressed quite elegantly, and it would be a waste not to go somewhere special dressed like this."
Booth came out of the dressing room again and nodded his head and took the bag back from Parker. "Sounds good to me. What about you Parker? You want to go eat some lunch?" Parker nodded his head happily and his stomach rumbled as if on cue.
Temperance laughed at Parker and grinned at Booth. "It's a date then."
