When she entered she automatically headed for the stairs and took out her visitors badge but then she remembered that she was not there to see Booth in his office, she was there to see him in lockup. She would have to be escorted by a security guard to him. She was dreading having to talk to him over a phone, while separated by a sheet of glass. When she went to the desk and said why she was there, she was told that because it was who it was, it had been arranged that she could talk to him in an interrogation room. Just as she went to open the door she had been pointed towards when a man wearing sunglasses came up behind her.

"Dr Brennan?"

"Yes?" she turned and saw a tall dark man with shades on.

"I'm Agent Michael Higgins I'm the head investigator in the Steven's case." He stuck out his hand, she ignored it.

"That's good maybe you can tell me why you have my partner under arrest."

"We arrested Agent Booth because we have evidence that ties him to the case."

"How can you have evidence, my lab hasn't done an examination."

"This may come as a shock to you but your lab is not the only lab in the country. You just happen to be the best." He took off his glasses and looked straight at her.

"Higgins I'm sorry but my partner has been arrested and I'm not good with people in normal circumstances so cut the sarcasm and tell me what evidence you have that allows you to hold my partner under arrest." The agent's eyes narrowed and he grinned.

"Well Drew Stevens was found in Agent Booths car. And that is all the evidence I am willing to share with the woman that was found in the arms of our suspect this morning and who it is rumored is involved with said suspect." She didn't reply to his comment.

"What was the COD that I know you can tell me." She was beginning to dislike this man more with every word he spoke.

"That I suppose I can tell you Temperance" his use of her first name didn't help him.

"Cause of death was a gunshot to the head." With that he walked away.

Brennan shook off her anger and entered the room. When she did she saw Booth sitting at a table. He looked shrunken. Not as tall as he normally did. he was not the Booth she knew.

"Booth!" she said going over to him. He stood up and she hugged him, he couldn't return the gesture due to his handcuffs.

"Bones thanks for coming." He replied.

"No problem Booth you did the same thing for me when I was arrested."

"Bones that was different! I arrested you! And besides you weren't in on suspicion of murder." He sighed.

"Booth don't worry I know you didn't do this. I'm not doing the examination as I'm sure you've guessed. But I'll find out what I can."

"Bones what do you know so far?" His eyes pleaded with her. Brennan reached across the table and took his hand.

"Booth they…. They found Drew in your car." Booth showed no reaction.

"I guessed that." She dropped his hand.

"What?!"

"Well I know you won't believe this but last night I found Drew in a pub and warned him that if he didn't stay away from Parker and Rebecca he'd have to answer to me. I told him to get in my car and left town. Bones I didn't kill him. I swear!"

"Booth is that why your knuckles were red? Did you beat him up?"

"No Bones I promise you I didn't touch him. I told him to leave and then I hit the gym." The look in his eyes told her he was telling the truth.

"Booth, I believe you but I don't think many others will."

"I know but it's the truth!"

They then sat in a silence that was not the usual comfortable one they normally had with each other. Brennan's mind was racing. Booth may have been the last one to see Drew alive. What was she going to do? Brennan reached down and took up the bag she had brought for him. "Sorry the clothes are a bit wrinkled but they had to search it." She said softly.

"Thanks Bones." Then the door opened and an agent came in.

"Miss Brennan your times up. You have to go."

"Its Doctor Brennan and you know it Burke!" Booth growled.

"Booth its ok." Brennan said. " Now I'll go and prove that you didn't do this."

"I know you will Bones. I'd trust you with my life." She walked towards the agents. When she reached him she turned around and saw Booth hang his head and sigh.
