Chapter 7

But I Hate Pie

Another 2 months later…

"Want some Bones?"

Those three simple words, uttered in that husky tone of his, had successfully set her body on fire. Sweets had once said that Booth's continual offering of pie was a form of seduction, and he had been right.

Slowly she began to lean forward. When she was halfway across the table she stopped, and opened her mouth in a silent invitation.

Desire burned in the depths of his eyes as he brought his fork to her lips, and watched in awe as it disappeared into the velvety recesses of her mouth.

He went hard when her eyes slide shut. The woman was effortlessly sexy. He had to swallow twice before he could speak.

"Good?"

"Yes."

As soon as that word left her mouth she knew she was in trouble. She hated pie, because normally she didn't like cooked fruit, but as the crust melted on her tongue and the sweet taste of apples filled her mouth, she found herself more than willing to make an exception.

It was then that she realized that she hadn't felt normal for a while now. Standing alone a sudden change in palate wouldn't be a cause for concern, but there were other factors to consider. For two months she had been ignoring those signs, blaming her subtle symptoms on their current case.

Now she wasn't so sure.

He could sense the shift in her mood immediately.

"Hey what's going on in that beautiful head of yours," he asked as he gently caressed her face?

"What," she asked as she shook herself from her reverie?

"That was my question for you Bones. You just got that look on your face that you get when you figure something out."

"Actually, she said as she turned her cheek into his hand, I haven't figured anything out yet, but I do need to get back to the lab."

He could tell that she was worried. So, instead of fighting with her about going back to the lab, he just nodded his head as he said, "Ok."

He leaned back in his seat so he could get his wallet out.

She instantly missed the warmth of his touch on her face.

After he tossed some bills on the table he flashed a charm smile at her as he asked, "Ready?"

"Yeah."

He waited for her to go before him so he could lead her out of the diner with his hand at the small of her back.

When they got outside she turned to face him.

"Booth I should go to the lab on my own."

Before he had a chance to protest she continued.

"There is nothing there that you can help me with anyway. You would just be bored."

Now she was worrying him. Whatever had occurred to her back in the diner was far bigger than the case they were working on. So naturally the last thing in the world he wanted to do was to let her go, but he knew that she needed him to.

"Being with you is never boring Bones, but your right you should go on your own. However, if you're not back in my arms by 11, I'll be coming for you."

Without another word she kissed him. When she broke the kiss she whispered against his lips, "See you soon Booth."

"11 o'clock Bones," he shouted after her.

She turned back and waved at him before she got into her car.

As she drove off, he kept watching until he could no longer see her tail lights.
