Thank you everyone for your reviews I really do appreciate them!

Previously:
At midnight, the group left the center and went outside. Their limo pulled up and took them back to the hotel. Brennan sat snuggled up against Booth his arm draped around her shoulder. They arrived back at the hotel and made their way into the hotel room. Everyone split up from there going their own way.

Booth, Brennan and Charlie entered the room.

"Booth how in the hell do you get so lucky. You get the smartest as well as hottest girl. The best team in the nation and FBI's highest award," Charlie complained.

"I don't know," he said with a goofy grin.

He watched as Brennan's back disappear up the steps. Charlie clapped him on the back and turned around to go to the kitchenette. When he turned back around Booth was gone. The door behind her opened as Brennan was removing her jewelry. She felt his lips on her neck and his arms wrapped around her waist. She groaned and tilted her head allowing him better access. She turned in his arms and kissed him softly.

He deepened the kiss and unclipped the neck of her dress. They spent the next few hours making love slowly and repeatedly. She learned the meaning of the metaphor seeing stars. He learned how her knowledge of science could be fun.

The alarm clock went off to early the next morning. Brennan crawled out of bed and went into the shower. She felt extra heat as a body pressed up against hers. Their shower took much, much longer than usual and they made good use of that extra time they took. When they came down Charlie had made coffee. Sitting on the couch curled up next to Booth, Brennan sipped her coffee.

There was a knock on the door and Charlie went to answer it. Expecting it was one of the team Brennan and Booth stayed put. They looked up as Charlie led Andrew Hacker in the living room where they were sitting.

"Well now I know were Agent Booth is staying and I see he is enjoying fringe benefits," Hacker said in a snotty tone.

Brennan glared at him, and Booth's jaw clenched. "Now that I know for a fact that the two of you are sleeping together I will be pursuing this on a professional level. There is no fraternizing with consultants," Hacker ground out.

"Make my month," Brennan shot back.

"Day Bones make my day," Booth corrected and she nodded.

"Make my day. If you go after this, I will sever the contract between the Jeffersonian and the FBI. The clause in the contract allows me to do so however it does state that I have to give a reason personal or not. I will state the reason. Which would be that you were jealous of a relationship between Booth and myself. I find it interesting that you told me you were the boss and you could break the rules. Now all of a sudden you are sticking to the rules," Brennan snapped at him.

"Are you black mailing a federal agent?"

"No she doesn't do that, well, except for me. She is stating a fact. I have read the contract in case she tried to use it against me. And she is right she has the ability to break contract with the FBI at any given time for any reason of her choosing," Booth told him with a frown.

"If that's what needs to be done. However, either personally or professionally you two are over. I choose my workstyle and lifestyle as I see fit. You two are not given that option," Hacker snarled.

"You keep pushing and I'll tell you what I'll torture you for a few unbelievably long hours and you can tell me if it is the lifestyle for you," Booth told him in a flat voice his eyes black with rage. Brennan took a sip of coffee and looked at Hacker.

"Are you threatening me Agent Booth?"

"That would be Special Agent in Charge, Assistant Deputy Director," Brennan corrected as she stared at him over her cup. Hacker did a double take and Booth glared at him.

"No not a threat Hacker, a promise," Booth said in a deadly tone.

"Hey Charlie can you please hand me my phone?" Booth called out to Charlie. Charlie brought Booth his phone. Booth flipped it open and sent a text.

"What do you think you're doing Agent Booth?"

"We are having a discussion and unless you want about 20 other people in on this discussion I am pushing the morning meeting back a half hour," Booth said calmly. Brennan's phone beeped and Charlie walked over to the counter and brought it back to her.

"Thanks Charlie."

Booth: I've texted Cullen he will be here in 5 minutes. He's in the hotel across the street.

"You two have no respect for authority reading and sending texts while I'm speaking to you," Hacker growled. Charlie's phone beeped. Brennan looked up at him and started laughing.

"You are wrong Assistant Deputy Director Hacker. I have respect for authority. I just have no respect for yours," she said with a smirk.

"No respect, none. I think I'll be writing you up for insubordination," Hacker stated pointing a Booth. A knock sounded at the door and Booth got up to go answer it.

"Hey if I'm being written up for something I might as well make it so," he said with a shrug. As he stood up Brennan leaned forward her robe split up to her thigh. Hacker's eyes slid from her thigh to her ankle. Booth whistled to get his attention.

"Eyes to the front Hacker," he warned Hacker in a seething tone. Turning around he went to answer the door as Brennan pulled the robe closed around her legs. Speaking quietly with whomever it was Booth was in the entryway for a few moments.

Leaning down and forward to catch Hackers eye Brennan stated, "Whatever it was that made me think that I liked you has long since gone from my mind. Do not refer to me by first name. Do not try to bully me into something. I am not FBI and I am an empiricist of the first order. I can compartmentalize my feelings so that you may not play with them. If you ever threaten my partnership with Booth again, I will dissolve the contract between the FBI and myself. I will also tell you that your contract with the Jeffersonian only guarantees you the right to use the lab but not whom in the lab you get to use. If you separate us from Booth you will be working with undergraduate students."

"Do NOT threaten me Temperance Brennan."

"Dr. Temperance Brennan," Hodgins corrected. Hacker looked up to find the Jeffersonian team standing in a half circle behind the couch staring him down. Another knock at the door and Charlie slipped from the room to answer it. Walking back towards the living room, he gestured for Cullen to follow him quietly.

"I don't care if you are a doctor or not. You do not have the authority to do what you want with an agent in my department."

Brennan stood up and snarled in his face, "What I do behind closed doors with an agent is none of your business."
Booth sat on the couch enjoying Hacker getting his ass tore up by his Bones.

"You know Bones he may very well get our partnership dissolved if you keep snarling at him," Booth advised.

She looked over at Booth not even noticing the Deputy Director standing behind him.

"He is making me very angry. I will not take this from him. If he keeps threatening our partnership then I will dissolve the contract and do repeat performances of page 187 with you as much as I want. I might just talk you into doing it at your desk and there is not a thing he can say about either," she growled.

She turned to glare at Hacker at the choked sound he made. His eyes bulging he choked and gasped while Booth grinned and winked at the squints. His mouth dropped open and he felt the blush rise to his cheeks when he saw Cullen. Cullen raised one eyebrow and laughed in silent laughter at Booth blushing.

Cam turned to look at Cullen. "I can guarantee that we will finish out the contract with the FBI which ends at the end of the fiscal year in four months. And until such time we will use graduate students and send the processed evidence to your own forensics team to determine results."

"I have already been told that Dr. Saroyan and it does not frighten me," snarled Hacker now thoroughly enraged at being threatened by a bunch of scientists.

"Shut up Hacker you are making an ass of yourself and the FBI at the same time," Cullen said quietly. Hacker jerked up to see Deputy Director Cullen standing there.

"Sir I was just trying to explain to Dr. Brennan and Agent Booth that their relationship is inappropriate and they started attacking me," Hacker explained.

"You were told last night to stay away from them. I've known about them, as has the Director of the FBI. We have decided as long as it does not affect their investigations then we are leaving them alone. Should any other agents be recognized by the DNI for their phenomenal solve rate then they too might date whomever they please. Your jealousy of not being picked by Dr. Brennan has overcome your work ethic. That is not acceptable. Every one of the agents picked to work with them here in Dallas say that they have been totally professional," Cullen said with quiet authority.

"But sir I.."

"Booth, Dr. Brennan all of your case files will come through me. Which is going to be a lot more work for me because of your solve rate but I do NOT want this kind of incidence to arise again. Dr. Saroyan I do hope that you will have the Jeffersonian re-sign the contract as it has been very beneficial for both parties. Also, please let Dr. Bray know his case files while he is working with Agent James will be under my authority as well. Andrew your association with the Jeffersonian is strictly on a non-professional level. In other words, you will only visit the Museum proper and not go near the Medico-legal lab or I will suspend you. Do we understand each other?"

Andrew shook his head and stalked past everyone to the door slamming it as he left. Brennan stood up and went upstairs without saying a word to anyone. Booth watched her go but thought she might need some time. Booth and Cam were thanking Cullen and apologizing to him for interrupting his breakfast. Booth asked him to join them and he agreed. After a few minutes, the morning meeting agents began arriving. When Brennan didn't come down stairs for a few minutes Booth told Charlie what to order them for breakfast.

Jogging up the steps calling out, "Hey Bones what is taking so long."

He opened the door and it was dark. "Bones?" He saw movement on the edge of the bed. Walking up to her, he squatted down to see her face. Her eyes were glassy and she was shaking. Standing up he crawled onto the bed and sat behind her. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her back against his chest and sat there. They sat there for a few minutes.

Down stairs, Charlie looked up. "What is taking them so long?"

Yeah I have no clue about the contract with the Jeffersonian so I made it up. I'm pretty sure though since it's the government it wouldn't be that easy to break. I try to keep things as real as possible but it is after all a story so somethings just can't be real =). Oh and did anyone see it? I love sticking in DB others maybe I should find some on ED. Whose line is it anyway =P
