This story is coming to an end.

Booth crept back into their apartment hours later. He hadn't gone anywhere in particular, just drove aimlessly, trying to clear his head, think things through and calm his anger. He found their apartment in total darkness and for a heart-stopping moment thought she had left him again. He found her on their bed, curled up on his side, her back to him. She seemed to have showered and was now dressed in one of his tee shirts with the FBI logo on the front.

His heart broke to see her like this and he swore no matter how much she hurt him, he could never do the same. She deserved better and it didn't matter if she took a knife and stabbed him, he would keep coming back for more.

He kicked off his shoes and climbed into bed, sitting cross-legged behind her.

"Bones?"

She turned, her eyes shining back at him with the tears she had shed.

"You came back."

"I'd never leave you. I'm sorry. I over-reacted."

Brennan sat up reaching for him.

"No, I'm the one who should be sorry. I left you, how else would you react?"

"It was just a kiss right? No big deal? You don't love him, like you love me right?"

Brennan understood the power she had over him, and understood that she had abused that power recklessly. The guilt was unbearable.

"Oh Booth, I'm so sorry," she threw her arms round him and buried her face round his neck, her tears streaming down her face. She wanted desperately to take it all back, never had she regretted one single action so much.

Booth's own desperation was apparent in his voice, he still hurt. He had handed her his heart and he wanted to know if he still had that place in her heart he thought he had.

"Please tell me you love me, say it, please."

The jealousy and hurt burning inside him was eating him inside out. He knew if she didn't feel the same about him he would die. Brennan knew that she could do better than tell him she loved him.

She pushed him down onto his back. spreading her legs to straddle him.

"Bones?"

"I'm so sorry Booth, believe me when I say I never wanted to hurt you."

"I believe you."

"Forgive me?"

"Already have."

"I'm going to prove to you just how much I love you."

She lowered her lips to his and captured his, kissing him with abandon. When his tongue sought access to her mouth she parted her lips readily, allowing his tongue to plunder her mouth, moaning at the sensations she was giving him. She could feel his erection growing under her and she slid a hand to cup the bulge in his jeans.

His hand flew to hers.

"You don't have to do this. This isn't what I meant. I just love you so much, I – "

"Please Booth, let me. I need this more than you know."

Booth nodded wordlessly. He allowed her to unbutton his shirt, kissing his chest then abdomen as she unbuttoned him. He shrugged out of his shirt, shivering as Brennan ran her hands up and done his chest, scrapping his nipples with her nails.

She pressed a kiss to his heart as if knowing that only she could soothe the ache in there.

She moved to undo his cocky belt buckle, slipping his belt off. She unzipped his jeans, climbing off the bed to pull them off along with his boxers, leaving him naked on the bed, his erection standing at attention.

She had an intensity in her eyes Booth had not seen in a long time. She started crawling towards her goal.

"Bones you really don't have to." He knew exactly what she had in mind.

He wasn't sure if she was ready. He remembered the last time they tried to have sex. He didn't want to pressure her. He didn't care if they never made love again, he simply didn't. All he needed was for her to never love another man like she loved him and he would be satisfied.

"It was just a kiss, no big deal, some idiot who had a crush on you, I mean who wouldn't?"

"You should stop talking about that. I told you I'm sorry and you forgave me. This isn't about my remorse for the kiss, this is doing what I've been wanting to for months even when I was in Peru."

She blew onto the tip of his erect penis and Booth groaned. With a hand she caressed his balls as she took him fully into his mouth.

"Ah Bones."

She started to suck and move, sliding him up and down her warm, wet mouth while her tongue swirled round his tip.

Booth gasped and moaned, trying to control himself from thrusting too deep into her mouth. His hips bucked of the bed. He felt the impending coil in his belly and his balls begin to build. This was going to be over way too fast.

"Bones, you gotta stop, It's been too long, I can't hold back… " he breathed, face contorted in concentration to hold back the impending flood.

Brennan released him just long enough to say, "Just let go."

She took him in her mouth again, sliding and swirling, sucking and blowing, and he soon climaxed, exploding into her mouth with a loud groan of "Temperance!"

She drank in every drop of him, the taste that was her husband that she missed filling her with warmth. She needed this, needed to know she could still pleasure him, needed this for her confidence.

She crawled up to straddle him, lowering her mouth to his ear.

"I love you Booth, more than I ever thought it possible to love another human being. I'm yours, forever yours. Don't think for a second that what I did was out of remorse or guilt. I only did what I did because I love you Seeley Booth."

Brennan sat herself up and saw tears in his eyes.

"I love you too Temperance Brennan."

The tension and worry that had burdened him the entire night left.

"I know." Brennan smiled her first smile since she had told him about the kiss. "Now prove it to me, because I've been so unsatisfied and my biological urges so unfulfilled you wouldn't believe it."

Booth chuckled. "Hey you're in control."

Brennan lowered her head to kiss him again. They kissed and he moved his hands at her hips pushing her up till her breasts were level to his mouth. They hung above him, tantalizing, teasing.

"Umm I missed these," Booth said as he pulled her to him capturing her left nipple in his mouth, he sucked and nipped while his other hand caressed and stroked her other breast. His free hand slipped between her thighs, skimming them gently, making her legs quiver.

He parted her folds, sliding his thumb over her clit, delighted to find her already soaking wet.

"You're so wet," he said as he released her nipple, turning his head to give equal attention to the other.

"It's all for you."

Booth's heart leapt and he pushed one then two fingers inside her, finding her sweet spot and curling his fingers to add to the friction. She bucked and moaned thrusting downwards, wanting him deeper.

He pumped his fingers faster, using his thumb to continually massage her clit. He felt her walls begin to flutter, the tell-tale sign of her impending orgasm.

"Come for me Bones."

She let out a "Booth!" as she climaxed, her juices coating his fingers, dripping down his wrist.

She collapsed on top of him, breathing hard.

"I didn't do what I did because of remorse or guilt either baby."

"I know, you love me," Brennan breathed. "But I want more."

She reached behind her, delighted to find him erect again.

"What can I say? Seeing you come because of me is a real turn on."

"Works both ways Booth."

She sat up, lifting her ass above his penis. She positioned his tip at her entrance, letting her still wet core rub him.

"Feels so good baby. You sure you're ready for this?"

"Positive."

She lowered herself onto him, taking him inside her inch by inch. They both moaned in unison. It felt like forever since they had been joined like this in the most intimate way a man and woman could. The initial jolt of pain she felt was quickly replaced by pleasure as he moved his hands to caress her breasts.

He didn't move, allowing her to adjust to his size and feel.

"Feels good for you baby?"

"Yes, yes Booth," she replied as she began to rock.

"Incredible for me too."

Her tight warmth enveloped him, and it felt like home. He stretched and filled her reminding her of why they were a perfect fit. She began to move up and down him, and he moved a hand to where they were joined to rub her clit.

She was close but not close enough, just like in her dreams, she grunted in frustration. He sensed she was tiring.

"I can't Booth, so close but – "

"I hear you babe."

Booth flipped them over, then hooked her legs higher round his waist as he angled himself to thrust deeper, hitting her right where she needed him.

"Ah yes Booth, you got it, don't stop… "

"Not gonna stop, till you scream my name."

"So close…"

"You're mine, all mine," Booth panted as he pounded into her.

"I'm coming….. ah Booth!!"

He body stiffened and her thighs clamped round him as her walls clenched and contracted round him, pulling him further in and massaging his rock hard length. His orgasm ripped through him as he emptied his seed deep into her, calling her name along with her.

Exhausted he slipped flaccid out of her, collapsing next to her in a tangle of arms and legs.

He pulled her to him, spooning, pressing her firmly to him.

"Just like in my dreams."

"You dreamed about us making love?"

"Yes when we were apart. I think it started some time after you told me you caught McFee. Although I always woke up unsatisfied, because I always woke just when I was about to orgasm."

"The real me is better than the dream me huh?"

"Yes."

They lay in each other's arms in silence for a long while.

"Booth?"

"Yeah?"

"We're ok."

"Yeah, I do believe we are."

Whew another tough chapter to write and was a struggle not to make them too OOC. Had a couple of re-works and this is the final product. Hope you all like.

Review and let me know what you thought of it.
