Brennan wrinkled her nose and glanced up from her crossword puzzle as Booth popped a bacon strip into his mouth. He winked. Crunchcrunchcrunch.

Sighing, she spooned some steel-cut oatmeal into her mouth before shooting him a pointed glare.

"What?"

"Could you please make a little less noise?"

"It's called chewing, Bones. With crispy bacon you've gotta have some crunch."

She penciled in another letter. "With the amount of crunching you're doing, one would think you're eating bones."

"Gross. Way to ruin my appetite."

"You could stand to have your appetite ruined. You've already eaten scrambled eggs and six strips of bacon."

"So? I have a physically demanding job."

"Yes, when you're not sitting at your desk eating snickerdoodles."

A guilty expression crossed his face. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Mmhm."

"Anyway, I know why you're Miss Crankypants--you're stuck."

"And you can help?"

"Seeley Booth, problem solver."

"Fine. What is a three-letter word meaning mothers, fathers, and educators?"

Booth sat in silence until finally, a slow smile curved his lips. "PTA."

Brennan sighed; he was, unfortunately, right.

"Uh huh. Take that... Now, come here and let me show you what else I can do."

"If you insist."

"I do."

Very good way of writing their complicity.

Loved it.

[trilliane.livejournal.com]

Ha! Oh man, so off topic but your icon is to die for!! *continues laughing*

[pinktealeaves.livejournal.com]

I made it right after watching that episode and I don't know why I didn't use it before.

Anyway, if anyone wants to use it, go ahead.

[trilliane.livejournal.com]

What episode is it from?
*snags icon with credit* ;)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

I think it's from Knight on the Grid, during the scene where they visit that old man who hisses at Brennan.

[trilliane.livejournal.com]

Oh man that old guy was freaky! I'm gonna have to watch that scene again now and laugh ;)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

That dude was scary. *g* Have fun re-watching; I love that episode.

[trilliane.livejournal.com]

Is it bad that I'm youtubing Bones in drama class?
Yeah.

[pinktealeaves.livejournal.com]

That dude was scary.

Yeah. And Brennan saying 'We know what you did...', is kind of scary in her own way. I love that scene. In fact, that episode is my fav one of the third season.

^_^

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

I am laughing my butt off at your icon. *g*

[pinktealeaves.livejournal.com]

I'm aware that there even wasn't physical contact in that scene, but I couldn't help it.

My icon is anyone-who-wants-it's icon. :)

[toughlovebaby.livejournal.com]

lol @ your icon. it just reminded me of the s2 bloopers (which i watched last night)...
David: I didn't touch your boob..
Emily: you did.

lmao.

[pinktealeaves.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you like it. We all know he wants to touch her as much as she does. ;)

As I said before, if you want that icon, it's yours. I don't mind at all.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thank you, my dear. :)

[trilliane.livejournal.com]

Excellent piece of writing hun! I can see Brennan as the crossword/suduko with morning coffee of person ;)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Exactly!

Thanks, Sam. :)

[pipergirl07.livejournal.com]

So sweet and... couply. And they don't even have to be *together* together to be cute :)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

*g* They are *together together* here, but yeah, they're cute even when they aren't.

Thank you, as always, Piper. :)

[toughlovebaby.livejournal.com]

they are such an old married couple without realising it. lol.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

*g* Exactly.

[makd.livejournal.com]

Well, I can only guess what else he can do. ;-)

Neat one.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

;)

Neat one.

Merci beaucoup, Makd.

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

The banter was too cute.

And how often does Booth get to show up Brennan? He'll be gloating about that for a month, I bet.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

And how often does Booth get to show up Brennan?

*g* Not nearly often enough for his satisfaction.

He'll be gloating about that for a month, I bet.

I bet you're right. ;)

[anadxof.livejournal.com]

Almost a week not reading you. I missed my Bones! =D This was really sweet.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Foxy. *waves hello* Hope you're well! *hugs*

[miss1nformation.livejournal.com]

I love the ending! So cute!

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

*g* Thank you, Jen.

[buffyangellvr23.livejournal.com]

oh yay,two on one night :) I like :)

I'd love them to go to Miami lol, then they could bump into Horatio Caine and wind up on case with him lol. And I don't even watch CSI Miami as much as the other two.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

I don't watch CSI, but I've heard the Miami one isn't nearly as good as the others.

[odakota-rose.livejournal.com]

You know, I really was having a rough day today...
And it's not gone away yet, but that? Definitely jumpstarted the process.
Thank you :)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

I hope your rough day smoothed out, Ren. :) If this helped a little, I'm very happy.

*hugs* Thanks for the fb!

Brennan sighed; he was, unfortunately, right.

I love when Booth wins. lol Poor Brennan... defeated.

"Uh huh. Take that... Now, come here and let me show you what else I can do."

"If you insist."

"I do."

HOT. To me, this is waaay too hot. eheh :D lol

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Sarah. Booth doesn't win very often, so it's rather momentous when he does. ;)

HOT. To me, this is waaay too hot. eheh :D lol

*grins*

[greyskygirl.livejournal.com]

Perfect. Funny, rings true, and then the last three lines change the tone in the best possible way.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks, sweetie. I couldn't have them being all couple-like without the hint of something smoochy. *g*

[mistletoe54.livejournal.com]

I can see him doing that Touchdown! signal at the end. (Behind her back of course.)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

hahaha You are so right, Sara.

[sarabones.livejournal.com]

Awwww *sigh*
Playing together :D :D

So freakin cute :D :D

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Sara. *g* I love them so.
