Wow, thank you all for the kind reviews!! I honestly didn't think anyone would like this...Thanks again!

When Temperance woke up the first thing she noticed was that Anna and Lily were no longer in her bed with her. She stretched and yawned, then slowly got up and walked into the hallway, heading for the stairs.

That was when she heard it.

Anna and Lily's scream.

Temperance broke into a run down the stairs and entered the kitchen, looking around for signs of her daughters. When she saw why the twins were yelling, her breath caught in her throat.

Anna and Lily were standing in the kitchen by the counter, each with their little aprons on, smiling up at the man by the stove who was wearing his own pink apron and chef's hat.

"Booth?" Temperance said. All three of them spun around and smiled at her.

"Mommy!" Anna and Lily squealed, running at their mother's legs.

"Booth is cooking pancakes!" Anna said, looking up at her mother.

"With chocolate chips!" Lily added. Temperance smiled down at her daughters, then slowly walked towards Booth.

"What are you doing here?" She asked him as he flipped a pancake over.

"Well I know Cam gave you a week off to spend time with the girls." He began. "And Cullen said that I should spend time with my dau--with my partner's children." Booth caught himself. Anna and Lily didn't notice, but continued to play with the flour.

"So why did they scream?" Temperance asked. Then she heard a 'glop' and watched as a pancake fell onto Booth's head, making her and the girls giggle uncontrollably.

"Booth was flipping a pancake and it stuck to the ceiling!" Lily explained in between giggles.

"And now it fell on his head!" Anna squealed. Temperance laughed as Booth attempted to clean the batter out of his hair.

"Oh, you think it's funny?" He asked, keeping a straight face after he had stuck his head in the sink and washed his hair out. Temperance tried not to smile, but failed miserably. "Girls, do you think mommy should be punished for laughing at me?" He asked. Temperance simply crossed her arms and smiled even wider.

"Booth, they're my daughters. They're going to side with me." She said. Temperance turned around and saw Anna and Lily standing behind her, smiling and shaking their heads 'no'.

"Ha." Booth said as he slowly moved closer to the anthropologist.

"What…that's not fair. You turned my own children against me." She said as Booth backed her up against the wall. Anna and Lily remained where they were, laughing at their mother.

"Bones." He whispered as he placed his head behind hers, his breath hot on her ear. "If you haven't forgotten a certain night five and a half years ago, they're mine as well." He said so the girls couldn't hear. Temperance shuddered and then turned her head so they were nose-to-nose.

"Trust me, Booth. Nothing could make me forget that night." She said. Booth smiled slightly.

"If you think that's going to change your punishment, you're wrong, my dear." He said before bending over and picking her up over his shoulder.

"Booth!" She screamed.

"Come on girls, its time mommy learned a lesson." Booth said as Temperance playfully kicked around. He headed into the living room, then walked towards the bathroom. Once she realized where he was headed, Temperance's eyes got huge.

"Booth, don't even think about it…Booth…?" She said, watching as Anna and Lily followed them, almost falling on the ground from laughing.

"My darling Temperance, this is what happens when you mess with Special Agent Seeley Booth." He said before setting her on her feet and shoving her into the shower which he had surprisingly managed to turn on. Temperance squealed as soon as the cold water hit her body, and once Booth released her, she jumped out, shivering.

"Seeley…Ryan…Booth." She said, grabbing a towel and wrapping it around herself. "You are so gonna get it." She said, looking down where her hair was getting the floor wet as Booth shut the shower off.

"Bones, it was a joke." Booth said as she stalked back into the living room, heading for the stairs. Anna and Lily decided it would be best if they went and watched television, and ignored the adults as they both headed upstairs.

"I…hate…you." She said once she was walking down the upstairs hallway. She entered her room and was about to close the door when Booth tried to enter. "What do you think you're doing?" She asked, raising an eyebrow. Booth smiled his charm smile and winked at her.

"I thought you might need help." He volunteered as she held him in her doorway.

"Oh…" Temperance said, smiling at him. She leaned up to his ear and whispered seductively, "Seeley, follow me." She said, then quickly entered her room, Booth following like a puppy-dog and shutting the door behind him. Temperance stood by her bed and curled her finger, motioning for him to come close to her. Booth happily obliged and all but ran to her side.

"Bones…" He said quietly, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Just as she expected…

Temperance hands suddenly reached forward and squeezed in a not so pleasant spot. Booth tried to say something, but all that came out was a squeak.

"Booth…darling…did you honestly think I would do anything with my five-year-old daughters right below us?" She whispered in his ear as his grip tightened around her waist.

"But…" He began as she released him. She put a finger to his lips and smiled.

"There will be other chances, sweetheart." She said sarcastically as she walked around Booth and exited her bedroom.

"You're an evil woman, Temperance." Booth said quietly before slowly following her. He followed as she walked down the stairs and into the living room, sitting by the girls. Booth carefully walked over and perched himself behind the couch, standing right above Temperance's head. When she turned around to look at him he gently shoved her off and jumped over the couch.

"Booth, what are you doing?" Temperance asked as she scrambled to stand up, only to get knocked down again by Booth throwing himself on her. He straddled her hips and held her wrists above her head, smiling.

"Bones…you of all people should know that if you do what you did to a man, it hurts. Bad." Booth said. Anna and Lily started in a fit of giggles again as they remained on the couch.

"And what are you going to do about it?" Temperance asked. Booth raised an eyebrow, and grinned at her.

"This." He said, maneuvering himself so he could hold both of Temperance's wrists with one of his large hands and using the other to tickle her uncontrollably. She instantly began giggling and writhing around on the floor.

"Booth…stop…me…hurt…you…" She managed to squeal out. Booth wasn't about to stop, however, and remained in his spot.

"Bones, do you give up?" He asked, emphasizing his last two words. Temperance, although still laughing, still was able to glare into his chocolate brown eyes. She closed her eyes as he continued to tickle her, then nodded quickly. Booth stopped, but kept his grip on her wrists.

"Booth, can you let me go now?" She asked, finally realizing their position.

"No. You hurt me. We gotta kiss and makeup, right girls?" He asked, turning his head and gesturing for Anna and Lily to come over.

"Yeah momma. You hurted Booth." Lily squealed, smiling at her twin sister.

"Kiss and make it better." Anna said. Temperance's jaw dropped as she stared at her daughters from the floor. Then she smiled and looked up.

"Well if you let me go I would." She said sweetly. Booth's smile disappeared as he immediately let go of her arms and was about to get up when Temperance grabbed the sides of his shirt and pulled him back down.

Just as their lips were about to touch, it happened.
