A/N: Hello again to all my wonderful readers. I must say that your reviews are an addictive reason to keep writing. I was so pleased as to the number of offers I had for beta readers! Honestly, being still relatively new to this whole online fan-fiction world I decided two- heads are better than one, and well four heads are better then two and so on. So I have four people who I am now emailing my chapters to for review. A great big thank you to WinchesterWench, SplishySplash, LuneSolei, and SheBONES. Thank you also Koria for the offer to beta! The following version is the one which Splash edited. I must say she is amazing at fixing problems and finding errors! I need someone like her for my college essays!!!

As always the disclaimer applies.

1Brennan was looking at Booth, drinking a beer at the counter. He had pulled the label to the beer partially off. Which of course meant he had something on his mind, she knew, Booth had always fidgeted when he is worried about something.

Judging by the look on his face, he was not worried about the same thing that she was, she was still not so good at reading people, except of course for him, but if she didn't know better that was lust in his eyes. Lust for her.

She knew she was attractive, and he had told her she structured well before, and she knew he thought she was beautiful, but he was her partner, her best friend. She thought that her feelings for him were simply one sided. But as she stood in the kitchen of their home, their home, in nothing but a silk bathrobe that was way to short for anything but sexy. She knew he would appreciate how she looked in the silky robe.

She bit her lip slightly. He was still staring at her. "Booth, are you ok" She asked

She was looking intently at him. Her mind working a mile a minute, taking in his body language, the beer he was holding, and how he was looking so intently at the length of her robe. She bit her lip, uncertain what was going on.

How could she come down in that robe! My god does the woman think I am a saint! It would be so easy to just go over there and peal that robe away from her. I bet she is nude under it. Oh god! A nude Bones, I shouldn't have gone there. The thoughts running through Booth's head.

"I'm only human Bones…and well Angela would have a field day with what just went through my head" He answered slowly.

"And what was that?" She asked, a sly smile on her face.

"You don't want to know." He protested, his eyes searching for something other than his partner in the room.

"Actually, yes I do." Brennan insisted.

"Let's just say, that robe leaves little to the imagination. And I have a very active imagination." He was focusing on the lamp across the room.

"I don't know what that means" His eyes met her, she was clearly confused. That cute look she got when she was confused was driving the agent mad.

Booth groaned, stood up and drained the last of his beer. This is it. Booth made up his mind, he was going to make his move. Bones watched him intently as he sat the bottle back on the counter and came around it to stand in front of her.

"It means that if you don't go put something substantial on right this minute I am not going to be able to be held responsible for my actions."

"Oh." Bones bit her lip again, but stays in place. She knew that this was the moment she had been waiting for. Booth was going to make his move.

"Times up" he reached out and threads his fingers into her hair, pulling her to him. She willingly presses herself against the length of him. Her palms were flat against his chest admiring the feel of his chest, his finely muscled chest.

"I am going to kiss you Temperance." He said with out question.

Before he got the chance to she moved her hands up to the back of his head, and pulled his lips to hers, kissing him hesitantly at first. Before long, the kiss deepened, lips bruising, teeth pulling, tongues soothing.

It seems like forever before they broke apart, resting their foreheads against one another.

"Wow." Booth said out of breath.

"You called me Temperance." She said, as if she didn't just kiss her partner and best friend.

"So I did." He whispered, closing his eyes.

She ran her fingertips along his jaw line. She didn't know if she could change enough to be what he wants, didn't know what was to happen now. Despite the feelings, she knew everything was finally going to be alright.

"I trust you Seeley. I just want you to know that before we do this."She mumbled softly.

"I know that Temperance. And I know that this is going to change everything between us." He grabs her chin then and looks her in the eye "I promise I will never leave you willingly, I will not hurt you"

"I know Seeley, I love you too"

He was startled by her understanding, of what he was trying to say, mostly startled by the fact that she said she loved him.

Chuckling, he kisses her again briefly.

"I do love you Tempe"

A/N: Please as always read and review. I hope this was in character enough for you. Don't worry I am not done yet. The fun is just really beginning. I still have to have Angela's talk with Hodgins and Cam/Zach's coffee date!
