This story was originally before his coma but after I saw the new episodes of season 5 I had to add them in (: So for the delay I've had my school certificate and haven't had time to write. From my previous story I decided to go another way so just imagine after they kissed this is what happened (: Thank you (: Enjoy!

Brennan pulled back abruptly. She enjoyed it. There was no denying that, but... Anthropologically thinking two physically attractive people would enjoy such a relief of endorphins.

"Booth this can't happen" she said.

"Why not?" Booth said almost at a whisper.

"Because it will never happen Booth!"

"Why could it never happen Temperance?" She shuddered as he pulled a strand of hair out of her face. She was getting pissed now.

"Because of you Booth!" she pushed him away. "Because of you and your stupid line! Because of your, I love you in an atta girl kind of way! Because of your oh you have to believe in love, like I loved Rebecca! You never thought of me like this until after your coma! How do I stop myself from being hurt?!" She calmed herself. "Booth, you got past my barriers when no one else could, you've gotten further than Angela could even go... You got past everything and saw me for me. No one has ever gotten this close to me before... If we take this further I'm afraid that I will lose you forever, because I will drive you away like I drive everyone else I love away from me. So let's just keep it the way it is..."

"But Temperance" again the use of her first name, he was doing it on purpose.

"Please Booth, don't, I can't..." she said as she began walking back the way they came to retrieve Parker.

Booth followed silently, not wanting to push the point.

**************************

When they arrived back at the hotel Parker immediately turned the TV on to realize that they had foxtel, that fact excited him. To Brennan's amazement his first instinct was to retreat to the discovery channel and it just so happened to be an interview that she had done a while ago for her new book.

"Hey Bones, Look you're on TV!" Parker yelled excitedly.

"Bones... You didn't tell me about this interview" Booth smirked.

Brennan went red instantly. She remembered this interview; she was feeling vulnerable that day. She didn't want Booth to know that her main male character was based on him even though in her head she knew he knew.

The three of them sat watching the interview for a while with Booth taking sideways glances at Brennan and she pretended not to notice. This time Parker noticed the exchange. "Dad why don't you ask Bones to dinner?" he said matter of factly.

"Well some things aren't as easy as they seem buddy" Booth's voice seemed to crack.

"But you both like eachother"

"Parker, look this is the reconstruction of a cell membrane for the purpose of disease healing" Brennan said trying to change the subject.

Unsuccessful.

"Bones, why won't you go out with daddy?" Booth gave her a moment to answer but when she didn't he quickly scooped Parker into his arms. "Come one buddy time for bed."

Brennan watched as Booth carried Parker into his room, his muscles tensed and she remembered feeling those muscles wrapped around her every time he saved her from death. She wanted to be with him she really did but she felt it everytime someone left her the barriers got thicker. Angela was the only one even remotely close to where Booth was at this moment so if he was to leave her, she wasn't sure she could survive it. "So Bones what do you think about heading to a theme park tomorrow with Parker?"

"Sounds fine..." Brennan said still entranced with thought.

"Bones, I'm sorry for the awkward position Parker put you in. I understand I really do and I'm willing to accept it, you mean so much to me I couldn't lose you as a friend aswell" he sympathized.

"Thank you Booth for understanding, I'm going to bed see you in the morning" With that she got up and walked into the room. Booth watched as she walked wishing that somehow that amazing body belonged to him, but even though he knows he doesn't own her he felt as though he was the closest someone will ever get to owning that amazing woman he calls his partner.

Sorry about all the fluff haha And I live in Australia so I don't know what theme parks are in Miami so I'll probably make it up don't judge me on it please (: Reviews will keep me writing (:
