"Five six maybe five seven, blue eyes…that's all I really know." Angela told the Agent that was questioning her about the attack.

The back up team Booth requested was at the Jeffersonian within minutes, but after searching from top to bottom there was no unauthorized personnel on the premises and all employees were being thoroughly questioned.

Angela remained in her office refusing to leave till Booth and Brennan arrived. She was still in shock but was given the all clear after being examined by a paramedic. She heard footsteps quickly moving down the hall towards her then looked up in time to see a frantic Temperance right before she engulfed her in a hug.

"I am so glad that you are alright. I am so sorry that this happened to you…I" Brennan was so worried she couldn't form words. Her best friend was ok and that was all that really mattered.

"It's ok Bren. I… I'm just a little shaken up, but I will be fine." She assured her friend.

"I'm glad you ok Angela." Said Booth as he gave her a reassuring hug. "Is there anything you can tell us about the attack? I know it was dark but any piece of info will help." He questioned.

Angela let out a sigh, clearly not wanting to rehash the events that just happened again but she put on a brave front and gave them all the info she had.

"Like I told the other Agent, they were about five- six, five- seven, blue eyes and really really creepy." She shivered slightly and Brennan wrapped her arm around her.

"That's it?" Booth asked sounding a little annoyed.

"Yes…I'm sorry I can't give you more, like you said it was dark and they had on a mask and dark clothes. I honestly don't know how they could see that well in the dark? They weren't wearing night vision or anything." She replied.

"Maybe that's because they work here? Maybe it's because it's someone we all know?" Bones started to rant again.

"Bones for the last time…please stop jumping to conclusions. You're going to freak everyone out that works here on a hypothetical hunch."

"Freak them out! I was attacked and had a head plopped down on my stomach. I receive creepy letters and my best friend was just attack and almost killed! So excuse me for trying to come up with possible theories as to who this might be!" she retorted.

Temperance squared off to Booth again just like they did at Caroline's apartment before Angela interrupted them.

"Wait…I almost forgot. The killer slipped this through the door after they taunted me."

Booth took the piece of paper that was now inside an evidence bag and looked at it very carefully. It was a picture of Angela and Jack taken somewhere in the lab without either of them knowing it was being taken. Both their pictures had red lines going across their necks and on the back of the picture read.

'Sugar and Spice not always so nice, especially when I slit both your throats with a knife.'

Booth cringed after reading the threat, he looked over to see Brennan's eyes slightly watered and her hands trembling slightly.

"Angela do you know where Hodgins is?"

"Yes I just talked to him; he is on his way here to pick me up. I am going to be staying with him till this is over, he's hired extra security around the grounds and I just feel safe when I'm with him."

"Good, I want you to call me every couple of hours to let us know you're alright. Bones will be staying with me and I have Agents posted outside my apartment and I will send two over to Jacks just to help keep an eye out. We will find whoever is doing this and when we do they see how much I don't like their little game." He hissed.

Just then Hodgins came rushing through the door and wrapped Angela up tight in his arms.

"Are you ok?" he whispered into her hair.

"Yeah…I am now. Take me home Jack, I really don't want to be here right now." She spoke into his chest.

Hodgins looked over at Booth to see if it was alright for him to take her and with a nod he lead her through the doors and out of the lab. Booth took the opportunity to talk to the other Agents to see if anyone found anything, but the only thing they had was a security camera capturing a dark figure making their way across the lab before the power went out.

Booth sighed and rubbed his temples, this was getting to close for comfort. Creepy messages, murdered friends, not to mention that he knew Bones was really pissed at him for not supporting her in front of their bosses. He just needed time to think and with Brennan in tow he knew that it was going to be hard.

The ride in the SUV was silent, a million emotions running through both their minds. Anger, hurt, fear, confusion and betrayal floated around in Temperance's head. She was upset that she couldn't find enough proof to convince Cullen that her theory maybe correct about the killer being someone they know, and Booth…Booth is her partner, he is suppose to back her up no matter what like she has always done.

She let out an aggravated sigh and turned her body more towards the passenger window. Booth stole a glance then focused back on the road, he had to admit the silence was rather comforting at the moment but the irritated woman next to him wasn't. He knew he'd screwed up with her and now was not the time to let his pride get in the way.

"I'm sorry." He whispered.

"For what?"

"For not believing you…for not backing you up in front of Cullen and Cam. For all of this stupid shit that seems to be happening to us all the time…I'm just sorry Bones." He sighed.

"Why didn't you back me up? We are supposed to be partners…partners back each other up no matter what. You told me that and the first time I needed your support you balked." She argued.

"I did not balk, I just…I just didn't want to believe that someone we know…someone that we trusted is doing all of this bad stuff. It's like when that girl died at the lab, everyone thought it was Gormagon because they didn't want to think someone they knew would come into their house and do such a thing. I guess I just put to much faith in the people at the lab that I didn't want to see your point of view." He explained.

"That's…reasonable I guess. Next time don't throw me under the bus just because you don't want to believe something. I find it nauseating not being trusted by you."

"I promise to be more open minded in the future Bones." He smiled at her and she could help but grinning back.

"I'm hungry." She said, laughing when Booths stomach growled. "Sounds like you are to…how about you call in for a pizza while I call Angela?"

"I think that is the best idea you've had all day Bones." He teased, laughing at the scowl she sent him from the passenger side.

Half and hour later they walked into Booth's apartment, hot pizzas in hand along with a six pack of beer. With all the shit that had happened today they could both use a drink. Booth checked with the Agents down stairs then made a thorough walk through of his place before finally settling down on the couch next to Bones.

"All clear?" she asked trying to hold the smile from gracing her face.

"Don't make fun of me because I want to make sure everything is safe and nothing bad happens to us. I want you to feel safe here, I know this situation is scary, I am scared to but I don't want you to be afraid when you're with me."

"I'm not." She whispered before leaning in and brushing her lips against his. Booth returned the kiss and soon it became a very heated make out session. He did't know how long they stayed there on the couch kissing and heavily petting but the sound of his phone vibrating made him reluctantly break away.

"Booth" he growled.

"Agent Booth, we've found another body."

Will Booth ever get to sleep with Bones? And who met their demise??? Reviews are nice to read people!!
