Wow, thanks for all the great reviews! And I promise That I'll work on my spelling and grammar better. And I decided that this is going to be a Standoff crossover. Hadn't thought about it tell it was suggested. It was just going to be a bank robbery but I wanted them in there for a while. So yeah, Emily and Matt will be negotiating with Trey and Jimmy! Good idea!-I like Standoff a lot too.
Bones was thrown back inside after Trey's announcment. Booth got to her within seconds.
"Are you all right?" He asked worriedly.
"I well be as soon as I kick his ass." Growled Bones and Booth laughed mainly because Bones was still Bones and that felt good at a time like this.
"Well I guess the police got your message." Bones concluded staring at the squard cars out in front.
"Yeah but I'm not sure how much help they'll be. I mean how much money does Trey want?"
"I heard him talking to his brother. He says that they can't except anything less then a hundred million."
"A hundred mill?" Booth whispered. "And how the hell are the F.B.I supposed to get that much money within 24 hours?"
"Well they are the F.B.I." Bones's told him.
"Yeah so?"
"So they'll figure something out. They always do right?" Bones looked at Booth. "Right?" She repeated and he nodded in agreement even though he knew that on more then one occasion the F.B.I failed in negotiation. But he didn't want to upset Bones especially since she was the first 'victim.' But he'd be damned if he left them hurt her. He'd use his gun first before that. At least he had a weapon. All he had to do was try and find a time to take Trey and Jimmy by surprise. It couldn't be like the incident with the guard. That one should that even if you had a weopon on you but you don't have a plan or stragety it's somewhat worthless.
"We should get to the little brother." Booth told Bones.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because he's the one that doesn't want to be here anymore then the rest of us do. He's just as scared as we are, maybe more."
"Bullshit." Bones snapped. She was not in the patronizing mood.
"Have you seen how Trey treats him? How he acts around his older brother? He doesn't like doing this but he's to scared to stand up to his big brother. If we could just convince him..." sighed Booth.
"Convince him to do what? Betray his own brother?" Bones asked and he nodded.
"If it comes down to it, yeah." He told her. "But I want to try and talk to him. To have him try and convince Trey that this isn't the right way to do things. That they can still come out of it all right."
"Yeah right, like Trey would believe you." Spat Bones. She was still pissed at hell at him for taking her like that and being a display or something like that.
"Everybody get up now!" Trey shouted. Bones and Booth looked at each other, confsued. "What are you deaf? get your ass's up now Goddamne it or someone well get hurt!" With those remarks everyone hurried to their feat. Trey went to the man that sat at a desk who was clearly in charge of the bank.
"Open that gate now." He told him and he was speaking of the medium sized cage like room they had in the back where they kept money and other valuables locked in. Without arguing the man did as he was told, shaking as he punched in the combonation to open the jaillike door. Trey had Jimmy help him shuffle everyone in like they were animals.
"Now I don't have to keep an eye on them all the goddamned time." Trey told Jimmy as he slammed the door shut.
"You can't keep us locked up like animals!" Snapped Bones as she pushed her way to the front, Booth following her to make sure she didn't do anything stupid, which she just did.
"Bones well you shut up?" Growled Booth. God she was impossible to reason with sometime.
"I suggest you listen to your boyfriend." Sneered Trey.
"What? He's not my boyfriend." Bones told him as he left. "He's not my boyfriend!" She called out stubboringly as Trey and Jimmy went to the front of the bank.
"Well you shut up lady?" snapped a strange man. "You're gonna get us all killed with that attitude of yours."
"Yeah!" Everyone agreed.
"Hey don't talk to a lady like that!" Booth told the man and then turned to Bones. "Now do as that man says and shut the hell up for once." Bones looked surprised and the man looked outraged.
"You yell at me and then say the same thing to her?" He snapped.
"That's right!" Booth shot back. "Because I know her. It's different then telll a women that I don't even know to shut the hell up. How would I like it if I told lets say that older women," He pointed to an elderly women who was holding her dog, trembling. "To shut the hell up, if she was complaining?" The man opened his mouth and closed it. The guy had a point as much as he hated to admitt it.
"I'm sorry I just didn't like him calling you my boyfriend when your not." Brennan told him. Booth sighed.
"Would it really be that bad if I was?" he asked.
"Of course it would." Bones cried, the question catching her off guard and he looked surprised.
"Oh..."
"I don't mean like that, it's just. You're my partner." Bone's tried to explaine seeing that he was hurt. "And that it would be really wierd and awarked, and that you have a son..."
"What the hell does he have to do with that?" Booth snapped, a bit definsive.
"Well it would just add to the complications of a relationship." Bones's stammered. "Look could we not talk about this right now? Everyone's staring." Booth looked around and indeed people were listening in intently and curiously. They turned away quickly when he looked at them and he sighed.
"We'll talk about it later." He agreed and Bone's looked at him worriedly.
"Are we still okay?" Bones asked , concerned and he nodded and smiled.
"Of course we are." He laughed. "I'm not mad or upset, promise. I kinda threw that one at you."
"Yes you did." Bone's agreed still unsure on what just happened.
"It was unfaire of me."
"Yes it was."
"You're an idiot." Booth added seriously and Bone's started to agree and then stopped and saw that he was trying to hold in laughter.
"Nice try." She said hitting him in the shoulder.
"What couldn't you have humored me?" Grinned Booth and Bones rolled his eyes.
"Men." She muttered to the women next to her and the women nodded in agreement,
"Uh huh honey, I feel for you." She said and Bone's smiled.
"Hey now that's two against, one. That's not fair." Booth said.
Even with the joking around and other people talking to one another they were all scared to death and wondered even more then ever what the hell was going to happen to them now.
