Sorry, I forgot how to spell "Halloween". Thank you for the person who sent me that one review! Oh, and thanks for the reviews! Like other people say, "Reviews are love"!
Booth ran as fast as he could as soon as he got out of his SUV parked outside the costume store. The store was about to close in five minutes and Booth needed to haul ass.
As Booth entered the store, the shopkeeper stood behind the counter and stared at a flustered Booth.
"The store's about to close in 5 minutes, sir--"
"I know. Five minutes is all I need. Thank you." Booth skipped toward the "superheroes" isle and found out that everything was gone. Panicking, Booth looked all over the place. This was the only store he knew thatw as open at such short notice. The discovery of empty shelves and hangers let Booth almost have a heartattack.
"May I help you?" The man yelled out from his counter.
"Where--where are the costumes! Where did they go?!" Booth panicked.
"It's Halloween, sir. Everybody needs a costume." The man gave Booth a funny look.
"Oh, crap!" Booth muttered under his breath. The man saw how disappointed he looked and showed simpathy.
"What are you looking for, exactly? It turns out I have a few adult costumes left."
"A Batman costume." Booth said sheepishly. The man chuckled and shook his head.
"Of course. Well, you're in luck. I have one and I think it's the perfect size." The man smiled.
Booth's face lit up. "Thank you! Thank you very much!"
It was getting late and Temperance Brennan was worried Booth wasn't going to show up.About two hours ago, Booth came back to the lab with a big smile on his face and a dance to his walk. Bones thought it was because it was Halloween, but then she began to get suspicious.
'What is that man thinking about? Why is he in such a happy mood?' She thought.
Booth came and took her out to the diner and still didn;t wipe that silly grin off his face. Finally, Bones asked him why he was so happy and Booth said it was a surprise. Therefore, Bones began to get frustrated.
Now, Bones was standing in the middle of the Jeffersonian's lab, wearing her Wonder Woman costume, and waiting for Booth. Suddenly, she felt her cellphone go off.
"Brennan." She answered casually.
"Bones!" Came from the other line.
"Booth?"Bones sat up.
"Yeah, hey!"
"Booth, what is going on?! Why aren't you here yet? Are you kidnapped again?!" Booth laughed on the other line at Bones's frustration.
"No. Don't worry about me, Bones. Listen, I'm going to be a little late, so why don't you go on into the party without me. I'll be there in about ten minutes."
"But, Boo--" Booth clicked on Bones which got her even more pissed off.
"Screw this." Bones got up and headed towards the party.
