Hello you lovely bunch of people

Ok so im updating pretty much every other day, but im afraid that's going to stop for a while as I have important exams coming up. Anyways enough about me, enjoy this chapter and the cheeky one im putting up soon to keep you guys going whilst im revising.

I still don't own Bones, if I did Vinnie would still be alive and we'd see his beautiful face every episode.

Guy time

"Ok boys, im off to meet Cam for lunch, see you later." Grace ruffled Vincent's hair as she said good bye. "Oh and Sweets I'll call you later." Vincent felt sick as she said that, what did she mean by 'call you later'. He attempted to find out, without given off that he was jealous.

"Haha so why is she going to call you later?" He chuckled nervously as he 'casually' continued to eat his lunch.

"Im hopefully going to have Grace interning for me, she's finding it really hard to find a job." Sipping his coffee Sweets was well aware the Vincent wasn't just making conversation, but he decided to not pursue questioning the young intern; it may have been his job and in his blood to ask questions but he didn't want to embarrass Vincent. However, Hodgins did not share this desire to leave Vincent alone.

"So why the sudden interest in Grace's phone calls?"

"No, not interested, just making small talk. Did you know…"

"Hold up, don't change the subject by sharing a new fact. Vincent was someone jealous? Does someone like Grace?" Hodgins couldn't help but laugh at the man sat opposite him; he was squirming in his seat and becoming a rather visible shade of pink.

Vincent began to stutter, eventually accepting defeat, he gave in "Look, I'll admit that I am attracted to her, she's beautiful, and witty, and intelligent, but I'd rather she heard this from me, and not in passing gossip. So this stays between us, yeah? Anyways im not sure if I'll even tell her."

"Vincent, I've always found it is best to be open about your feelings, the benefits of taking a risk may surprise you." Sweets encouraged the young man, knowing that his feelings weren't one sided.

"Yeah man, I mean you'll never know if you don't try. You would not believe how many times I had to push Angela to go on a date with me. Then we had the perfect first date and an amazing relationship…"

"Which eventually ended, and now your relationship is based on awkwardness. I barely know the girl, she's been here two days, let's just see what happens."

A little later…

Vincent kept thinking about his conversation with Sweets and Hodgins, he was in two minds about what to do; he could wait and get to know the girl better, maybe befriend her then one day when the timing was right confess his feelings, but the problem there was what happened if he ended up in the 'friend zone'. His second choice was to jump straight in, and this plan was more desirable to him, he wasn't sure if he could play the 'friend'. But what if she didn't like him in the same way, maybe she was just simply flirtatious with everyone and it wasn't just for him. Vincent was normally confident in his pursuit of the opposite sex, but he had noticed his confidence in everything had been knocked in the recent weeks. Sighing he placed his head in his hands as he continued to lean over the table, where he had been studying Brennen's notes of the recent case, when he suddenly heard a wolf whistle from behind him.

"Hey good looking!" Grace cheekily winked as she walked onto the platform.

"Hey, right back at you. How did you get up here without setting off the alarms?" Vincent asked through his child like grin.

"Well my dear Vincent, when you're an employee's intern you get given your own id card. I got the job!" She excitedly chirped, skipping towards him and pulling him in for a hug.

"That's great." Holding her in his arms longer than he probably should have, but he soon realised that she was pulling away.

As for Grace, she didn't want to let go, this was the first time she had felt safe in a long time.
