Dr. Temperance Brennan was on her way home. She couldn't wait to see Booth. She had a huge surprise for him and she hoped he would love it. Now that their relationship was on the mend, she felt she could actually give it to him. The plane ride was pretty tame. Long, but tame. Not much turbulence, no screaming kid behind her kicking her chair and no one sitting next to her. Her first class seat was well worth the extra money, because she actually felt relaxed.

As she was drifting off into dream land, she began to think about Booth. She could feel a smile creep across her cheeks. She began to recall the moment she and Agent Seeley Booth finally become a serious couple.

It was a typical day at the Jeffersonian, Bones was working on identifying a victim. Booth stopped by to see how it was going.

"Angela narrowed down the possible identity to either an August Simonson or Edgar Bernard."

"That's good." Booth said.

"Hey, Booth," Bones said, snapping off her latex gloves and throwing them away, "can I talk to you in my office?"

"Certainly." he said, as they both headed toward the office.

When they got there, Bones shut the door behind them and gave him a funny look.

"What did you need to talk to me about?"

Bones smiled slightly, walked closer to him and pulled him to her. She pressed her lips to his. A shocked Booth hesitated, thinking he was dreaming, but when Bones started to deepen the kiss, he let her. She wrapped her arms around his neck, their tongues meeting several times. He brought his hands to her face and cupped it. Bones started to pull back, but Booth grabbed her and brought her back to him. She didn't resist. As the kiss slowed, Bones could feel her heart flipping around in her chest. Booth felt the same thing. They finally pulled apart. Booth's knees felt weak as he almost stumbled backwards.

"What was that for?" Booth asked with a love struck grin across his face.

"It needed to be done." Bones said, as she started to walk toward her desk.

Booth grabbed her hand and drew her to him. "Why?" His eyes sparkled as he lovingly looked into her eyes.

Bones smiled demurely and quietly said, "because I love you."

"Attention passengers we are making our final descent into D.C. in just a few moments, please return to your seats and fasten your seat belts." the co-pilot announced over the loudspeaker.

Bones, who had fallen asleep after thinking of Booth, woke up to the noise. She was a little disoriented, but she managed to move her seat up and fasten her seat belt. The decent was exactly like the plane ride, smooth, tame and uneventful, which is always a good thing. When the door opened and people started filing out, Bones stayed in her seat, not wanting to get squished by people anxious to get out of the plane. She was patient, even though she was dying to see Booth.

As she walked down the terminal, her heart started beating faster, she was nervous about seeing Booth as much as she was excited. She spotted him, waiting for her. He, of course, used his FBI badge to get past security to see her. With her carry-on luggage hanging from her shoulder and placed directly in front of her abdomen, she started to smile when he finally spotted her too. He started to walk toward her quickly and she picked up the pace, before they were finally in front of each other, both smiling like a couple of love struck teenagers.

Bones launched herself into his arms, wrapping her own arms around his neck and giving him a giant hug. "Oh, Booth, you have no idea how much I missed you." Tears began to fall down her cheeks.

"Bones, I love you." he whispered into her hair. "You should really set down that bag so we can get even closer though." he said, pulling back a little.

"I did, Booth."

Booth looked down at where the bag once was and his eyes widened, "you're pregnant?"
