Hi again everyone :)

I know it has been ages! something like five years since I started this story.

My life has changed a lot since then, and I'm actually curious to know if any of you think my writing has changed?

For the first time in years I felt like writing. I have ADHD, and writing has become very very difficult for me, as I don't want to publish anything that doesn't meet my own high expectations, both technically and in regards to the story line and characters. I am quite happy with these next few chapters, but only you, the readers, can be the judges of the writing :)

Coming back to this story I read the first 5 chapters again...and before reading on, I was inspired to continue in a different direction. To tell you the truth, I didn't read on from chapter 6 and onwards, before writing this alternative chapter, and I don't really remember what I wrote back then, so maybe it is "stupid" to post in the same story...as I don't really know if I've just rewritten some of what was already in the story (not word by word of course, but maybe I had the same things in mind five years ago).

No turning back now, though.

I really hope you like this change of direction with the storyline. I don't know just yet, how I will continue, but so far, I've written this alternative ending to chapter 5, split in three more chapters, that will be published in the coming days (depending on your response).

Previously: (from the ending of the original Chapter 5, pretend you haven't read chapters 6-10 ;) )

"I can't help myself" He said, thinking he should get back at her for making him blush, "You look beautiful"

He leaned forward resting his forehead against hers and he knew he had gotten to her as her face reddened and he felt her hot skin beneath his. He wanted her so much. He wanted to take her in his arms, carry her to her bedroom and make love to her. It would never be anything but making love.

His feelings for her were beyond the possibility of just sex.

He knew it was too early though. She wasn't ready and he wasn't going to push her. But he also knew that he couldn't wait long. He didn't want to wait. He wanted to show her and tell her how much she meant to him. It would be a longs process, but he was patient. He knew she was worth every minute he had to wait.

Temperance tried to calm her breathing. Did he know what he was doing to her? Her heart was beating a thousand beats a minute, her breathing shallow. A warm glow filled her body and her skin was tingling. She wanted him so badly, but the feeling also scared her out of her mind….

Alternative continuation:

But do I really want to keep being so scared of something good? Something, that could make me happy, or at least… She stopped her thoughts for a moment, pondering what sleeping with Booth would give her, would make her feel…keep me satisfied for a while?

A myriad of emotions showed on Temperance's face. Booth wondered, not for the first time since meeting this enigma of a woman, if he would ever learn to read these emotions. At this moment he would have settled for knowing just one of the many thoughts, apparently fighting for dominance in his partner's mind.

He had felt the way her pulse accelerated the moment he reciprocated her flirting, could still feel her heart racing, as well as the heat radiating from her body. All of it mirroring his own body's reactions. He didn't know how to respond to all this though.

Hot and flustered, Temperance inadvertently licked her lips. She looked into Booths eyes and held his gaze.

What came next was neither a sudden occurrence, nor a change of mind over time.

It just happened.

As this was a very short chapter, I will post the next one soon...just wanted to get this chapter out there, hoping to get reviews telling me wether to bother posting more ;)
