Well hello everyone! I know it has been a very long time since I updated this story, but my muse simply hasn't been working. I experienced a little writer's block and didn't know what to write next. I am very sorry and hope you guy's forgive me.
Let me say that this chapter probably sucks, as I'm just getting back into writing this story. So don't think this is how the rest of the story will be, let me just...reacclimate myself and it will once again be written like it used to be.
"Booth! People are going to be showing up anytime now!" Brennan yelled to Booth, who was getting dressed in the bedroom.
Coincidently, a knock came upon the door shortly after.
"Booth! They're here!" she yelled again, going to answer the door.
"I'm coming Bones! I can't get this tie right."
She sighed and opened the door, where Hodgins, Angela, Cam, Paul, Michelle, and Sweets stood.
"Congratulations!" they said in unison.
She laughed. "Thank you. Come in."
Angela kissed Brennan on the cheek. "I never thought I would see the day sweetie."
"What day?" she asked.
"You're engagement party! Man, you can be so thin headed sometimes."
"That doesn't sound like a good thing." Brennan sighed.
Angela laughed. "Let's just enjoy the party."
They started walking towards the kitchen when there was another knock at the door. Brennan turned around to go answer it, but Sweets cut her off.
"I'll be the official doorman for the night, Dr. Brennan."
"Thank you Dr. Sweets. That is very chivalrous of you."
"It's no problem. Go enjoy your party."
Brennan smiled and returned to the kitchen. Sweets opened the door and there stood Max, Russ, Amy, Hayley, and Emma.
"Hello Max, Russ…come in."
"Dr. Sweets. It's nice seeing you again. As opposed to the first time I met you, you were trying to send my ass to jail."
Sweets laughed, scarily. "Yeah…sorry about that."
Max smiled and shook his hand. "You're a good psychologist."
"Thank you sir." he said, as Max pressed passed him. He was about to close the door when Jared and Padme showed up.
"Agent Sweets. Nice to see you again."
"Actually, it's uh….Dr. Sweets."
"Oh. My mistake. This is my wife Padme."
"You guys got married already? Nice to meet you."
"Likewise Dr. Sweets."
"Come in, everyone's in the kitchen and living room."
He closed the door and sighed. Just how many people were coming tonight? He could be doing this for hours! A couple minutes passed and Sweets thought it was appropriate to get a drink, when of course, there was a knock at the door. He sighed and opened the door, where Hank Booth was peeping through the peephole. Hank jumped back and laughed.
"Well if it isn't one of Parkers friends! I thought I saw your bike parked outside. How are you kid?"
Sweets half laughed, obviously not amused.
"I'm good Hank. And yourself?"
"As good as I can be at my age. Now wheres my shrimp and lovely soon to be granddaughter-in-law?"
"Try the kitchen."
"Got it." He went to walk in but turned around in front of Sweets. "Did you remember to put chains on your bike? You don't want anyone stealing it now, do you?"
Sweets laughed. "Oh Hank. You're so…full of humor."
Hank laughed and patted the young psychologist on the back. "You're a good kid. I'm only joking with you. Having a sense of humor is one of the things that keeps you young, when you're old as me."
Sweets laughed. "I know Hank. I have no problem with your teasing."
"Yes you do. So I'll quit."
Sweets smiled. "Thank you sir." He shook his hand and headed to where everyone was.
Sweets sighed. He regretted offering to be the doorman. It was not as easy as it looks. As if on schedule, another knock came. He sighed heavily, and swiftly opened the door. But he wasn't expecting who was on the other side.
"D, Daisy? What are you doing here?"
"Dr. Brennan invited me. I'm sorry if I'm intruding or making you uncomfortable."
"No, no it's fine. It's Dr. Brennan and Agent Booth's party. I uh…have no problem."
An awkward silence fell upon them, as Daisy looked down.
"I'm sorry." she confessed.
"Me too." he mumbled.
"It was my fault." They said in unison.
"How was it your fault Lancelot? I was the selfish one that was more invested in my career than my fiancée."
"Yeah, but I'm the one that didn't try hard enough."
Daisy smiled, as they each took a step towards each other. "We could…pick up where we left off. If that's okay with you?" she asked.
"I…Would love that." he admitted.
They jumped into each others arms and began kissing. Just then, a blonde haired, 10 year old kid walked up to the door with his mother.
"Ewww! Gross!" he exclaimed.
They released each other, as Sweets became embarrassed.
"Parker, I um…I'm sorry."
Rebecca laughed. "I'm Rebecca Stinson, Parkers mom."
"Lance Sweets, I'm uh…Booth and Brennans psychologist."
She laughed again. "I don't want to know. Sweetie, tell you're dad and Dr. Brennan congratulations for me?"
He nodded happily.
"Have a good time tonight. I'll see you in the morning." she spoke again, kissing him on the cheek. "Nice to meet you Mr. Sweets."
"Actually it's Dr. Sweets."
"Oh, I'm sorry Doctor. See you guys later."
After his mom was halfway down the hallway, Parker laughed. "Excuse me, Dr. Sweets, where's my dad at?"
"Kitchen, I think."
"Right, how would you know anyway? You're to busy sucking face with your girlfriend." he retorted.
Sweets laughed. "How old are you now Parker? That was a rather, grown up and sarcastic comment."
"I'm 10. And my mom watches Jershey Shore a lot. I learn a lot from watching that! It's really cool!"
Sweets ushered him into the apartment.
"I don't think your dad will find that very cool." Sweets muttered.
From in the kitchen, Booth looked over and saw his son walk into the apartment.
"Excuse me." Booth told his friends, as he walked over to his son.
"Dad!" Parker exclaimed, jumping into his fathers arms.
"Hey bub! Where's your mom?"
"She left. She wanted me to tell you congratulations."
"Well that was nice of her."
Booth looked over at Sweets and Daisy, who looked like they could really use some private time. When will it ever stop? he thought.
"Hey um Sweets, I think everyone's here that was invited. So you're officially off door duty."
Sweets sighed. "Thanks Booth."
Booth and Sweets turned to walk away, when Booth turned back around.
"And Sweets, there's a bedroom down the hall on the left."
Sweets and Daisy looked at each other embarrassed. Sweets nodded in appreciation, although his face was red as an apple. This was going to be a long night.
I told you it sucked, right? Let me know what you thought and if I should continue. Wow, I'm sorry if everything seems really bad. I promise you will receive better chapters for now on. Thanks!
