Thanks for reading my story.

I don't own Bones.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooo

Booth, gagging and spitting, had enough and walked away from the body. Walking out of the woods, Booth walked over to his truck and got a bottle of water out of the back of his truck. Gargling some of it, Booth tried to spit out the nasty taste in his mouth and then drank the rest. Sitting in the back of the truck, Booth kept an eye on the woods where the squints were.

Getting his phone out of his jacket pocket, Booth called the person he wanted to hear the most.

"Brennan."

Smiling, Booth said, "Hey, Bones. How're you doing?"

Smiling, Brennan said, "I'm fine Booth. You've only been gone a few hours."

Glancing at the woods, Booth said, "Yeah, well, let me tell you, after working with Heckle and Jeckle, I'm missing you more than I can say. Did you know that Daisy drinks Big Gulps one right at the other when she's traveling? I stopped three times coming up here for bathroom breaks. Then to top that off, you wouldn't believe what Hodgins and Daisy just did."

Concerned, Brennan said, "Did they do something to compromise the crime scene?"

Snorting, Booth said, "I'll say. They pissed off a skunk and the damn thing sprayed them. The smell is all over them and the crime scene. The body was only eight feet from them; so, I'm pretty sure that the rotten body smell has been added to."

Sighing, Brennan said, "Don't shoot them, Booth. You'll just get into trouble."

Frowning, Booth said, "HA HA, Bones. I'm sitting in my truck trying to figure out how to get those two idiots back home without throwing my guts up doing it. As it is, I'm pretty sure my clothes smell like skunk. I was standing about ten feet from them when they got sprayed."

Shaking her head, Brennan said, "It's a good thing you aren't wearing one of your suits then. If we have to throw your clothes away then I would much prefer they be jeans and a t-shirt."

Sighing, Booth said, "Hey, I am not throwing my t-shirt away. It's a classic ZZ Top concert t-shirt."

Smiling, Brennan said, "Alright. I'll Google skunks and their odor and see if I can find out how to get the aroma out of your clothes. It may not be possible though."

Nodding his head, Booth said, "Well, if I have to, I'll throw it away; but, only if I have to. Angela's Dad gave me this shirt for a Christmas present. I'd rather not piss him off if I can help it."

Hearing her baby crying in the next room, Brennan said, "Christine is crying, Booth. I'll talk to you later."

Smiling, Booth said, "I love you Bones."

Smiling, Brennan said, "I know you do, Booth."

Ooooooooooooooooooooo

Sheriff David Messersmith, disgusted with the turn of events, walked out of the woods and over towards Booth's SUV. Seeing Booth on the phone, the Sheriff stopped and called his office to see if he was needed. Once he found out that all was quiet, Sheriff Messersmith waited for Booth to end his call and then walked over to stand next to Booth.

Nodding towards the woods, David said, "You have some pretty pissed off squints in there."

Shaking his head, Booth said, "And you have a pretty pissed off FBI Agent out here."

Laughing, David said, "Bathing in tomato juice sometimes cuts the smell."

Frowning, Booth said, "Fat lot of good that will do. I don't have a bathtub full of tomato juice to throw them in. I have to figure out how to get them home. My FBI squints aren't going to let Hodgins and Daisy ride back with them; so, I'm stuck with them."

Nodding his head, David said, "It's a good thing it isn't very cold. You should be able to drive home with the windows rolled down."

Shaking his head, Booth said, "We'll see. I'd like to go interview the guy who found the body while my squints are working here."

Nodding his head, David said, "I'll drive you over to the motel and then bring you back here."

Smiling, Booth said, "Sounds fine with me. Let me go tell my squints where I'm going and then we can go.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Walking back into the woods, Booth could smell the sickening skunk aroma as soon as he entered the woods. Walking until he could see Hodgins and Daisy, Booth watched them working. They were gagging and holding their hands over their noses. His FBI techs were trying to do their jobs while keeping as much distance as possible from Hodgins and Daisy.

Calling out to Hodgins, Booth said, "Hodgins why don't you and Daisy go back to my truck and look through my gym bag. I have some spare gym clothes in there. You can put those on and throw those coveralls of yours away."

Looking up, Hodgins nodded his head and said, "Thanks man. I'm going to start carrying an extra set of coveralls with me."

Daisy, standing up, smiled at Booth and said, "Thanks Agent Booth. It's hard to concentrate when I smell so bad."

Hodgins and Daisy, stepping away from the body, started walking towards Booth when Booth held up his right hand. "Sheriff Messersmith's taking me to Breezewood so I can interview the guy who found the body. I'm leaving my truck here. I'll be back when I'm done."

Nodding his head, Hodgins said, "Sure."

Nodding his head, Booth turned around and left the woods as quickly as possible. Once he was clear of the woods Booth started to breathe deeply.

Walking over to the Sheriff's car, Booth got into the passenger's side and said, "Ok, Sheriff. My squints know we're going."

Smiling, David said, "Are you sure it's safe for you to leave those two knuckleheads alone with the FBI squints. Those guys looked pretty pissed at your Jeffersonian squints."

Smiling, Booth said, "Sure, they're professional. Besides, they know they can't kill Hodgins and Daisy because they know Bones would hunt them down to the ends of the earth to find them."

Laughing, the Sheriff started up his car and drove away, leaving Hodgins and Daisy to deal with very angry FBI squints and a gooey stinky body.

BBBBBBBBBBBB

I really hate the smell of Skunk odor. My cat got into a fight with a skunk once and we had to pay for it for days. What do you think so far? Interesting or not?
