"Bones come on we have to stop at the grocery store you don't have food that kids like."
"Booth I beg to differ, the food I have is healthy and tastes good."
Sully had been with this pair a day and already felt like she belonged. Well she felt like she belonged more then at any of the foster homes she ever had.
"Oh come on Bones the only good food you have is mac and cheese." Brennen sighed and gave in.
"Alright Bones, okay Sully we'll get some real food." Booth flashed his "kid in a candy store" smile and looked at Bones with a look that made even Brennen beam with delight.
Booth pulled the SUV into the grocery store parking lot and opened the door for Brennen and Sully. Booth insisted on having Sully walk by his side so he could keep an eye on her. Sully couldn't help but smile back as Booth stood by Brennen with his hand on the small of her back. As they walked through the store Booth would walk through the store pointing things out and Brennen and say he was worse then Parker. Sully didn't know who Parker was but she knew he was important to them. Halfway through their shopping spree they ran into someone who apparently knew Booth. She was an older women who seemed nice enough. "Seely Booth! It's nice to see you settled down with someone." Booth's cheeks reddened and Brennen coughed, then the women noticed Sully. "And whose this, oh she has her mother's eyes and your smile Seely." Booth nearly choked and Brennen looked like she was about to pass out and Sully looked like a deer in the head lights.
"Uh, no Mrs. Wilson this is my partner Dr. Temperance Brennen and Sully is, uh...Sully is part of out case."
"Mhm...I see Seely well you three take care now." She winked as she walked by the shocked group. Brennen looked at Booth and they were both red in the face and Sully couldn't help feel slightly happy, she had never been compared to a parent, even if they weren't really her parents.
"Uh Bones I think the frozen pizzas are over here." Booth said, his voice still a little shaky. Bones and Sully followed behind him with Brennen still increasingly embarrassed. The trio checked out of the grocery store, Booth and Brennen still hadn't fully spoken to each other since they were assumed married and had a child. Sully didn't talk but was still wondering, she knew that these two loved each other it seemed like everybody else knew it maybe they needed a little help finding each other.
The car ride to Brennen's house was silent. Sully helped bring groceries in much to Brennen's dismay because of her wrist. Sully almost dropped the bag she was carrying when she saw the size of Brennen's apartment. They put all of the perishables into the refrigerator and freezer and Booth showed Sully where her room was and Brennen and Angela had gotten her pajamas and enough clothes for the week so while she put those in the room Booth went to help Bones in the kitchen.
"Booth, I'm making mac and cheese can you hand me the pot." Brennen pointed to a pot that was on the top shelf in her cupboard. Booth grabbed her hand that was outstretched pointing at the shelf. "Booth what are..." She didn't get to finish her sentence because she was cut off by Booth's lips pressing softly against hers. He didn't deepen the kiss because he knew Sully would be walking in soon. Brennen looked over to her left only to find Sully did indeed see them kiss and was standing there trying not to laugh with a giant smile with both of her hands formed in thumbs up signs.
