76. Music
Friends and family had gathered, had filed into the church where seven month old Addison Camille Booth was being christened, and had then made their way to the Booth home for the celebration.
Children played in the bounce house, Addison secure in the arms of nineteen year old Parker. Christine and Michael had teamed up against Seeley and Henry. Kai and Catherine, both on the verge of turning two, alternated between the safety of their parents and the excitement of the bounce house.
A docking station set up at one of the windows provided the music, mostly empty pizza boxes and beer bottles littered the table where the adults sat. The conversation was interrupted when a familiar guitar riff floated through the speakers.
"Hey, Bones, it's our song!"
"Well, I'm hot blooded, check it and see,"
"You got blown up while we were listening to this song."
"I got a fever of a hundred and three,"
"Dance with me, please?"
"Come on baby, do you do more than dance?"
"Fine."
"I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded..."
Reluctantly, Brennan stood, allowing Booth to lead her away from the table. She laughed as he dipped her playfully, spinning her around the garden much to the amusement of their friends. By the end of the song they were surrounded by their children and their friends, everyone singing loudly.
As the next song began Booth lifted Brennan, hoisting her over his shoulder evoking a squeal from her as he headed towards the bounce house. They both fell, him cushioning her fall as she leaned forward to kiss him, both ignoring the shouts and cheers from behind them.
"Woah, tiny eyes present, guys, keep it PG!"
"Shut up, Parker." Was the reply, mumbled against his wife's lips around their smiles and laughter.
