Sorry everyone for the delay. School started. My computer broke. There are loads of reasons but I know you guys really want to read the story. So my rant is over. Hope you enjoy. Review please. :D
Christine sat in her with Tyler on her bed. She was in her computer chair. They had to complete a project on emotions on the brain for their AP Psych class. 'My First Kiss' was loudly playing throughout her room. She hoped no one would come into her room. Booth was not so secure about boys being in her room since the pregnancy test incident. Christine had a feeling that if he knew all of her and Tyler's secrets he probably would have no objections.
"My first kiss was the fifth grade. Erin Richardson kissed me during break the first day of school."
"Erin? As in Erin with the thing?" Christine asked pointing to her face.
"The same."
Christine couldn't help but laugh. Erin had kissed her best friend.
"Unfortunately Mikey was my first kiss. I was eleven. We were standing outside our tree house. My dad was so pissed off."
Tyler could imagine Mr. Booth threatening Mikey even at twelve.
"Your dad definitely takes the crown for overprotective father."
"Tell me about it. He thinks I'm pregnant every time I leave the house."
The two laughed in unison as Christine's door came open. They both turned to see a shocked Booth.
"Hi Dad." Christine said smiling despite what she knew was going through her father's head.
Were they having sex?
Were they making out?
Did he just walk in on something he knew he didn't want to see?
"Dad, is there something you might need?" Chrissy asked laughing.
"I was coming to tell you that we were going out with the Squint Squad for Thai tonight. I wondered if you kids wanted to come. Michelle's in town with her kids. Cam has got Little Paul, Howie and Kayla coming. Hodgins and Angela are coming with Mike and Katy. All of your siblings are coming. Sweets is bringing Daisy and the kids."
"Well we're doing our AP Psych project but we could eat."
"Are you sure that's a good idea? Michael will be there."
"I don't want to intrude." Tyler told Booth.
"It's not that. You wouldn't be intruding like I am now. Just thought it might be awkward."
"Dad, Tyler and I were just doing homework. We're friends. Not going out. So it wouldn't be awkward for us."
"Right." Booth said, his tone unsure.
"Mr. Booth I can assure you nothing was going on between myself and Christine. I give you my word."
Booth smiled at the young boy. Good kid.
"So yea, we're game Dad. And no … I'm not pregnant."
Booth actually laughed at that joke.
"Funny Chrissy. Be downstairs in half in hour. Parker is meeting us here. He might drive the boys or you two."
"No. We'll ride with you and Mom." Christine said smiling,
Booth gave an awkward smile before leaving the room, with the door opened. Tyler started to laugh.
"Is something funny Ty?" Chrissy asked him smiling.
"You and your dad have a weird relationship."
"I was his baby girl for three years. He only has me and Patience. We're Daddy's girls."
"Yea, I know."
Christine threw a pillow at Tyler.

The team and all their family and friends were all at one large table eating. Michael was eyeing Christine and Tyler. How could she bring him out here when she knew he would be here?
"Everyone this is my friend Tyler. Tyler this is everyone."
"Hi everyone." Tyler says.
Assorted greetigns were thrown into the air.
"I wasn't aware you had a boyfriend Chrissy." Michelle said.
"I don't. Tyler and I … we're just friends." Chrissy said smiling.
"Like just partners." Hodgins said smiling.
Booth and Brennan both looked up to see smiling faces of their friends.
"We were just partners." Booth exclaims.
"Of course you were." Angela says laughing.
The table fills with laughter.
"And no Uncle Jack. Not like Mom and Dad. I actually have male friends who are actually what the word friends mean. It would never be like them. That much sexual tension could detonate a bomb."
The table filled with laughter again. Tyler shook his head at his best friend.
"Chris, that's a little personal."
"Dad, you can't be a prude forever. Come on."
"Christine I think you should appreciate that your father likes his privacy. Anthropologically speaking-"
"Bren not tonight." Angela says smiling.
"Well Chrissy, I'm surprised you don't have a boyfriend." Michelle said shrugging her shoulders.
"Sometimes it saves you the disappointment."
The table got quiet. Many around knew what happened between Michael and Christine.
"Can I get tension for two hundred Alex?" Vincent said smiling.
The kids around the table could not help but laugh. The adults were still waiting for a reaction from Mike.
"Isn't that right Mikey?" Chrissy pushed.
Michael met eye contact with her and just smiled.
"Sometimes it just means people should learn to trust. Instead of pulling conclusions out of their asses."
"Whoa! 360. Let's turn to a more kid-friendly channel." Booth exclaimed, deciding to play referee to these two teens.
"Why would someone pull it out of their ass Mom?" Cam's son Little Paul, who seven, asked.
The table could not help but laugh at him. All people needed were laughs.
