So listen...for my beloved readers who are patiently waiting for Booth and Bones to be back together....I'm sorry. I just couldn't make it happen this time but trust me it is coming soon and I am not intentionally torturing you. Thank you all for your reviews and your appreciation.
As usual...I don't now nor have I ever owned Bones and I DID NOT INHALE! hehe!
As Dr. Sweets hung up the phone he smiled widely. He had been waiting for a day like this from the first time he began working with Dr. Brennan and Agent Booth. It wasn't hard to see the depth of their feelings toward one another but he was still shocked when Dr. Brennan told him what happened between the two of them. He wasn't shocked that they gave into their sexual desire for one another as much as he was that Dr. Brennan had professed her love for Agent Booth. He definitely didn't see that one coming anytime soon. Then to find out that Agent Booth had lied to Dr. Brennan was yet another shock to the system.
Dr. Sweets heard a knock on his door.
"Sweets open up!" Booth's voice was muffled through the door. That was quick. Sweets thought with mild panic. He thought that it would take Booth a little longer to get here. Sweets wasn't ready. He hadn't even packed yet and he defiantly wasn't ready to deal with Booth's rage once he found out what was going on.

"Open up Sweets! I know you're in there!" Booth called again as he continued to bang on the door of Sweets' apartment.
He heard Sweets call from inside the apartment for the first time.
"Give me a minute!"
"You have thirty seconds before I knock down the door." Booth threatened even though he knew he wouldn't do that. Booth felt as if he had been knocking on the door for hours although it had only been about five minutes. What was taking him so long?
It only took Sweets twenty seconds to open the door after Booth's treat but, he didn't invite Booth in. In fact Sweets was coming out of the apartment and Booth tried to convince himself that Sweets didn't have luggage in his left hand. Oh God no! Please say I don't have to travel with Sweets! Sweets was another one of those people that got on Booth's last nerve.
Sweets locked the door behind him and Booth could tell he didn't like where this was going.
"Okay lets go!" Sweets said with an excited grin on his face and then began walking down the hall.
"What? Go where?" Booth's voice was wary and aggravated at the same time. He didn't know what was going on now but he knew he didn't like it.

Brennan sat alone in her hotel room with her head in her hands. She hoped that Sweets and Booth got there soon. She had plenty to say to Booth and she couldn't wait much longer. She was going crazy waiting in this tiny little room. She wanted to see his face, kiss his lips…no! He has to apologize and even then she wasn't sure if she would forgive him. She was pretty sure she would though but, before she let him back into her life she had to make sure that he wouldn't lie to her again. No secrets should exist between them anymore. However, she now had a large secret of her own to tell him.

On the airplane Booth was finally beginning to calm down.
"Did she tell you everything that happened between us?"
"Yes Booth but, I think it's best if we hold all questions and comments until we get there."
Booth nodded. Sweets had told him on the way to the airport that Bones wanted the two of them to have a session with sweets at her hotel in Berry islands. Booth was somewhat frustrated at first but, now that he really thought about it he was grateful.
First of all he was grateful that he could finally see Bones and talk to her. Secondly he was grateful that Sweets was going to be there to ease some of the tension and sift through emotions.
It had been almost two weeks since he'd seen Bones and he couldn't stand the wait. If he hadn't had to wait a week to see Zack it wouldn't have taken so long to get to this point but, no! They have all of there strict visitors policies there at the crazy house! Whatever. He was just glad that he was on his way to grovel at the feet of the woman he loves in hopes that she might one day forgive him. He would do anything to earn her forgiveness. No matter what the cost. Even if it meant keeping Sweets hostage for weeks in the hotel until Bones and him worked though their issues.

Ken wasn't ready to give up the love of his life to Agent Booth. He's waited to long and worked too hard to have her taken away again. Not by Agent Booth or any other man.
Ken had suspected that Booth wasn't going to give up easily and why would he with someone as beautiful and intelligent as Tempe? But, to lie to her! Well, that was something that even an imbecile like Booth should have known better than.
Ken had looked into Booth's career and home life intensely after discovering that he was working closely with Tempe. From what he had unearthed about Booth Ken had derived that he was an honest man. Someone who thought that morals, hard work, and good behavior were good qualities and that good always prevailed over evil. He was a loser as far as Ken was concerned.
Ken was smart enough to know that the old "nice guys finish last" line was completely true. After all, his IQ was 160 and he met enough nice guys to know that that old saying was right on. People only had to think you were a nice but, in all honesty you had to be ruthless to get what you want in life. That had been his mothers largest mistake. She wasn't ruthless and in the end kindness had been her fatal quality.
Ken would know. A week after he turned twenty two and stolen the real Ken Hart's identity he'd been ruthless. The real Ken had been one of these nice guy types but, he had no family and not friends. No one to know or even care if he 'disappeared'.
He had been one of those lucky, family money, guys. Only he had no family left. No one to care what would happen to his family money.
About two weeks after Jason Bradley became Ken Hart he saw her. The most beautiful woman in the alive. He fell in love with Tempe right away and after discovering her intelligence that love intensified.
He had never once meet someone worthy of his intelligence until he saw her.
It had been a rainy day and he had taken a cab to a store down town where he was planning on getting a few groceries. She was there in the cab. He said hello and she smiled and said hello as well. Those were the only words spoken but, that was all he needed to fall in love with her.
That night after following her everywhere he lay awake in bed picturing them together.
In the weeks following that day he had secretly found out everything there was to know about Tempe. His love for her grew into infatuation. He knew that he had to be with her but he also knew that someone like her wanted a nice guy, a good guy, an educated guy devoted to holding up the law. So he began his decent, as he thought of it, into the FBI.
Ken hadn't worked this hard at being good for this long just to have her ripped out of his hands by Agent Booth.
Ken had followed her for seven years now and his patience was decreasing.
Ken was just as silent now as he was every time he follows her. His footsteps were less than a whisper on the carpeted floor of the hotel.
The hotel hadn't been hard to find after tracking the calls from Angela's cell phone and Sweets' as well.
Ken was done playing games so, he was about to end this one and tell Tempe everything. She'll see the reasoning behind his actions and she will come back to him. They can ran away together and start a new life with new names and identity's. However, he had to get her to listen first and he wasn't sure that, once he began to tell her his whole story, she would listen. That's what the handcuffs, rope, and duct tape was for.
Ken knocked on the door of her room and when she answered, the shock, disappointment and the small trace of fear that crossed her face amused him.
