It was early the next morning that Tempe sat in her office going over a few files that Booth walked into her office. She tried not to acknowledge his presence and kept on reading over a few things until she noticed he had taken a seat across from her desk. It was a few minutes later she was pulled out of her thoughts by a small blue box he had placed by her hand.

"What's this?" she asked picking it up.

"Marry me." he said, she was shocked, her eyes wide.

"What?" she asked, knowing if she had something to drink she would have choked on it.

"Cullen felt it was time we got this case on the move, so he wants us married by next weekend and I figured I propose now." he explained trying not to smile at her stunned look.

"Ohh I got it." She said trying to hide the fact she had forgotten all about the case.

"I didn't think you'd like this whole dramatic thing, but that's just too bad." He said leaning over to take the ring out of her hands.

"What do you mean?" she asked watching him close the box and place it in his pocket.

"I'm proposing tonight in front of Angela, Hodgins and Zach." He said heading towards her door.

"Then why show the ring to me now?"

"That way you know how it looks and you don't get that shocked look on your face again." he said shaking his head laughing.

"Did you break up with Cam yet?" she asked before he was out of her doorway completely.

"I was just headed there." He said leaving.

Booth quickly walked out of Tempe's office smiling and past Angela and Hodgins as they carried on their own conversation and headed towards Cam's office. It was quiet as he passed the platform and quickly noticed Zach was no where in sight. As he reached his destination he noticed the door was half open and talking came from the inside.

"Dr. Saroyan, I understand the importance of the bodies, but…" Zach said upset.

"No buts, stick to protocol." She said being her normal self.

"Yes Dr. Saroyan." Zack said walking out of the office.

"Hello Agent Booth." He said noticing him standing there. Booth walked right past him not saying a thing.

"Hello, Seeley." Cam said putting her arms around him, smiling. Deep down this was going to hurt.

"Not now Cam." He said getting her to release him.

"What's wrong?" she asked curiously.

"Look I wouldn't normally do this here, but considering the time and everything it needs to be done." He said seriously.

"What needs to be done?" she asked confused wondering what had been so important.

"Look Cam, we've had good times and everything, but I think it's time we ended this little thing we have going on." He said avoiding her gaze, the only thing he could think of was Tempe, even though he knew everything they were doing wasn't real, he still felt it was time to end this, he had to admit he did have some feelings for his Bones.

"Are you breaking up with me?" she asked confused.

"Yes, and I'm sorry." He lied. Hell he wasn't sorry, ok that was a lie; he was sorry, sorry he hadn't done it sooner. Yeah that was mean, but true. Every time he found himself with Cam he could only think about Bones.

"Why so sudden?" she asked wondering what she could have possibly done.

"It's just the time has presented itself."

"It's another woman isn't it?" she asked upset, tears forming. Questioning how such a good thing could end so fast and in such a way. She thought things were better than before.

"No Cam there's not; I just feel some space is needed."

"Who is she?" she asked not hearing a word she said.

"No one." He said turning to leave.

"How long?" she asked stopping him in his tracks.

"How long what?" he asked turning to face her, hoping to hide the truth deep, but knew he failed miserably.

"How long have you and this other woman been together?" she asked a tear escaped her eye and rolled down her cheek.

"There is no other woman." He lied again, he turned to leave again.

"I can just ask Dr. Brennan." She said, Booth stopped and turned to her, she knew, but how. His eyes must have bore the question because she opened her mouth to ask. "How long have you and Brennan been together behind my back?"

"How did you…?" he trailed off.

"How did I not? You two are practically falling all over each other every time you get close to one another. I see it in your eyes, the way you look at her, but I've let it pass, I said nothing. Until now, the way she looks at you. It's like nobody else is around and I can stand it any longer, if you could just pay even a fraction of that much attention to me, maybe just maybe…but no." she said lowering her head.

"Cam, I'm sorry, but it just happened?" he said walking over to her where she had taken a seat on her couch.

"When? I just want to know when?" she cried into her hands.

"Two months ago when I went over to her place after that fight we had about Parker." He said avoiding her gaze again.

"You told me nothing happened." She mumbled from her hands.

"I know, and that's only because we agreed to just forget it, we were both drunk and well…" he trailed off, she had told him the excuse she had given Angela and told her they should make up more details and run with it. He then sat there for fifteen minutes and explained what he meant by 'run with it'.

"Well what? Why the sudden change? Why only now change everything? "She asked, her tears had subsided and anger was in her eyes. Booth took a deep breath, this was it, after this there was no turning back.

"Bones, made a few new discoveries." He said headlined towards the door.

"Like what?" she questioned; now she was beyond confused.

"She's pregnant." He said it; there it was, all on the table.

"She's what?" she asked upset, all hurt from her was long gone.

"She's pregnant." He repeated.

"She's pregnant with your kid?" she asked furious, Booth had closed the door as she blew off steam. "You slept with her, got her pregnant and for the past two months you have been seeing me she has been walking around carrying your child? And you're only now telling me this?"

"Cam, I'm sorry, she told me last night over dinner, and I realized I love her and I messed up once I'm not doing this again, I'm asking her to marry me so we can have this baby together. Look I didn't plan this, nobody did, but I can guarantee you it's better for me to brake it off instead of you finding out when her water breaks." He yelled back.

It hurt him to be like that, but he knew it was all undercover when it was all over, he would explain. But would they get back together? Would he even want to? No, and he knew that, they were friends the whole benefits thing just didn't work out.

"Booth, I must admit, this is not how I saw things ending." She said; her voice a hell of a lot more calm.

"Neither did I Camille." He said and walked out of the door and to Tempe's office where she sat typing on her computer.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked as he threw himself on her couch and let out a heavy sigh.

"I just broke up with Cam." He said lying down on her couch and looked over to her. Beautiful. He thought, then mentally slapped himself, grateful she couldn't read his mind or he'd be laying face down on the floor in pain.

"How did it go?" she asked looking over to him and wondered curiously.

"horrible." He said, then got up from the couch and headed towards her door. "Tell Ange to meet us at the diner, you'll get your ring there." He said and walked over to her, placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

"Do that again, and I'll kill you." She warned.

"Bones, Angela is watching," he said and she looked past him and out her glass window, sure enough her eyes met Angela's. "And if we're going to pull this off, then you better get used to that."

"fine." She mumbled and allowed his lips to brush across hers. She thought for a moment he had hesitated longer than necessary, but didn't question it, and not just because Angela was watching, but because, though she'd never admit to herself or anyone else, she liked the feeling of his lips on hers. The safety he had offered her and the promise of happiness with one small kiss.

As Booth left Tempe looked past him and over to the platform where Angela was smiling brightly and jumping in place. Life had just taken a back seat to a case that just may have her loosing her mind over.
