Next one will have Parker, I promise. This just came to me and i had it write it!!
"Bones, that's just … gross," Booth's face was scrunched up in a look of utmost distaste. "I think I'm going to be sick."
"Not over my couch, mister," Brennan warned. Then focused back on the TV. She was sitting on the very edge of the couch, eyes glued on the screen. Booth hands were over his face in an effort to hide the pictures.
"How can you watch that?" He asked, sneaking a peak at the TV. "And enjoy it?"
"Booth, you're a cop, you've seen all sorts of things like this," she argued.
"Yea, but the bodies are dead and don't look like people," he countered.
"What about Cam's autopsies?"
"I avoid them, incase you haven't noticed, Bones," heavy on the snark. Looking from the screen again, he studied Brennan closely. She was watching the TV avidly, completely intrigued with what she was seeing. He wondered how she could find something like that so interesting. Then he remembered that what she did for a living involved fibulas and scalpels. Yep, she was abnormal, all right. And he kinda, sorta, a little bit loved her for it.
"Well …" she was stuck for a response to that. He took that opportunity to take the remote and flick the channel to American Idol.
"Not better, but bearable," he muttered. Brennan looked to Booth, then to the screen, then to Booth again for a few seconds. Then made a small noise that was distinctly "ompphhh" like.
"You…how dare you? Put it back … " Booth just smirked and watched the TV. Then he felt the remote get ripped from his hand.
"BONES!!" she flicked back to Medical Emergency. He made a sound more like a growl.
"What?"
"I you know I hate the operation shows," Booth looked at the screen. A doctor had just started cutting into a women's abdomen. He felt faintly sick. "They freak me out. Please, just put it back on American Idol."
"No," she resisted the childish urge to stick out her tongue. He reached across her to take the remote back. She reacted with speed, desperately trying to stop him taking it, but was too slow. He had already put it back on his show.
The fight was on.
"Give me the remote," she said, leaning across Booth's body. He held the device a centimeter out of her reach and put a hand on the top of her head, forcing her back. She started to tickle him under the arms, going for his weakness. He broke out in a fit of giggles, trying to push her away from him. He was laughing so much now.
"Stop it, please, that …" he was giggling like a 14 year-old school girl. "Really, really tickles." She kept on the torture.
"Give me the remote and I will stop," she said, in the most serious tone she could muster.
"Never," he was slightly breathless. "But I will …" he chucked the remote across the living room. Brennan stopped tickling him and ran after it. She sprinted across the room, Booth on her heels. Both of them rolled over the couch and were neck and neck on the other side. Then Booth through out an arm, shoving Brennan to the side. She fell to the ground and felt a moment of blind panic. He was going to win! But she wasn't going to give up without a fight. Reaching out, she gripped his leg and saw him tumble forward, as though in slow motion. He scrambled forward but the remote was still out of his grasp.
"Noooooo," he said, slightly over-dramatic.
"You two are soooo immature," came a voice from in front of them. Angela. Brennan looked up to see her picking the remote off the floor.
"My, that was interesting," said Hodgins from the couch. Grabbing a handful of pretzels from Zach, he looked expectantly at the duo, as though waiting for an encore. Brennan looked at Booth and saw that he was staring at Angela. Oh shit. The world-renown forensic anthropologist looked at her best friend and spoke very slowly.
"Ange, give me the remote now."
P.S I dunno what the real equivilent of Medical Emergency is in America. Or if there is one, even. So go with me people!!!
Oh, and P.P.S. I'm not trying to pay out American Idol, I just don't think Booth would be a fan.
P.P.P.S I love reviewers, they make me happy! hint hint. Anyway, the little blue (or purply color) button is just over there ---- and down a bit. See it? Yep, ok now press it! Good job!! Thanks!! xoxo.
