A/N: hey guys sorry I didn't update sooner I'll try to be better in the future

As usual I don't own Bones

Okay guys, lets try a new excercise, it will show me how comfortable and trusting you are towards each other. Sweets told the two people in his office, looking very uncomfortable and sitting on the loveseat as far away from each other as it would allow. Huh he thought to himself. Usually by now they would have thrown me at least an insult or two, but they have yet to throw any insulting comments to distract me. Something must have happened between the two, I need to figure out what it is before Cullen gets air of his best team falling apart.

By now Sweets was starring off into space and Booth and Brennen were both looking concerned at the young doctor.

"Sweets, Sweets, SWEETS!" Booth shouted at him.

"Huh, what, sorry," Sweets stuttered finally snapping out of his reverie. "Sorry what was I saying?"

"You were telling us about the exercise you wanted us to do to fulfil the requirements to keep our partnership from being terminated." Brennen said in her usual monotone voice.

"Oh yes of course." Sweets said returning back to normal.

"Are you sure your okay, Sweets ? Because we can leave it here for today ", Booth said in a fake caring voice. Brennen caught on quick and chirped in, "Yes Sweets you might want to lie down and relax and we will leave you alone in peace.". By this time Booth had jumped up and was putting on his coat and was motioning for Brennen to do the same.

Sweets started protesting but Booth interrupted him "Hey no disagreeing with Bones okay, She's the doctor here."

"Actually Booth he is also a doctor and I would have to be a medical doctor to . . ." Before she could finish Booth interrupted her.

"Bones as interesting as this is, I would like to go to the diner and get some pie maybe, so are you coming or not?

"Okay fine, goodbye Sweets Brennen said while following Booth out of the office."

"Yeah, bye Sweets" Booth said as an afterthought

Sweets all this time just sat there flabbergasted wondering how they had gotten out of yet another session. "That has to be a record" Sweets muttered to himself.

Meanwhile in the SUV.

"I'm sorry Mathew, What? ..... no no , Okay yes that would be perfect , okay pick me up at my place at seven ? Okay see you later , yes I'm looking forward to it too. Bye" Brennen hung up with a happy sigh .

"So his name is Matthew? Booth said with forced enthusiasm.

"Yes we had a date last night and as it was successful l he would like to meet me tonight."

"Well just be careful alright "Booth said looking over at her "and call me if you need a ride home , okay , it doesn't matter what time it is just call okay ?"

Brennen smiled at Booths concern towards her and responded with a soft voice "Thank you Booth, it's nice to have someone who cares for me, but I will be okay because Matthews a good guy, I think you would get along well with him.

"Yeah I'm sure he's great Bones , Booth grumbled. "How bout we go get some pie ?"

"Booth you know I don't like my fruit cooked !"

"How could you know if you've never tried it , I'm telling you the diners pie is the best in town !"

"I'll come with you but I'm getting a salad and green tea.

Booth made a face at that but it quickly turned to a grin as he realised that he was going to spend some time with Brennen that wasn't to do with work "I need to show her that she doesn't need to date Matthew or anyone else for that matter I need to show her that I'm the guy for her.
