What Booth Knew

Storms made his partner horny.

Booth knew this from experience.  Granted, it was experience he’d never really expected to have.  But he made it his business to know people the way his partner/girlfriend (man, was it weird to think of her that way now -- even though he’d imagined her naked many times before they’d taken their partnership to a different place) knew bones. 

Of course, he thought with a smile, he knew bones, too; he knew Bones’ bones.  He knew the pale arc of her hip as she snored beside him in the pre-dawn light. He knew her pebbled spine under the press of his tongue. And he knew the deceptively delicate flex of her wrist beneath his fingers as he pinned her arms over her head and thrust them both past the point of no return.

So when Brennan nudged his shin with her bare foot and let her spoon rest in her bowl of oatmeal with a small clink, Booth waited.  “Hm?” he asked, not glancing up from the paper. 

“I’m going to go back to bed.”

“You feeling OK?”  Booth picked up the Sports section.  “I thought you wanted to go to the lab today.”

“I did.  And now I don’t.”  She paused.  “Is that a problem for you?”

Biting back a grin, Booth shrugged.  “Of course not.  I’m just concerned about your health."

“Well thank you for your concern, but I feel fine.”

“You’re welcome,” he said, placidly.

A rumble of thunder echoed.  Booth didn’t have to wait long before Brennan nudged his shin again, this time walking her toes up toward his knee.  “I think you should join me.”

“You can just tell me you want to use me for my body, Bones.”

“I’d like to use you for your body now, Booth.”

“OK.”

Hee. I love Brennan being straight forward.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

It's one of her many skills. *g*

[bea-tricks.livejournal.com]

i think this is one of my favorites. everything is just right. it's cute, it's sexy, it's that saturday morning languor. the paragraph when booth expresses his knowledge of her bones is just gorgeous.

i've read this whole thing through like three times. oh how i'd love to hear what happened next.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot. "Saturday morning languor" captures it exactly. Well said! :)

oh how i'd love to hear what happened next.

Hmmm... *ponders* ;)

Oh, thank goodness there's fanfic, 'cause I don't think we'll ever have the pleasure of seeing this delightful exchange on the Tube. :-)

Thank you.

[kaydee23.livejournal.com]

I think they're headed that way on the show. I really do.

[themirrorofsin.livejournal.com]

Hehe lovely fic <3

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Why thank you! :)

[themirrorofsin.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome =]

[pinktealeaves.livejournal.com]

Brennan looking for what she wants... I like that Brennan the most. May I say that I miss Sully? XDD

I think you've pictured them so perfectly. I could totally see them having this moment. :)

Lovely.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

There is much to admire in any person who just goes for whatever he or she wants. :) Of course you can say you miss Sully!

I'm happy you were able to see Booth and Brennan in this. Thanks, as always, for commenting. *hugs*

“I’d like to use you for your body now, Booth.”

*waves hands* ME TOO!!!

Lovely job!

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

The real question is, who DOESN'T?! *g*

Thanks for reading and feeding.

[late-heart.livejournal.com]

Ah, you never fail to make me swoon and root for these two. Perfect for a rainy day, too. Love it!

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Oh happy day, if I have made you look twice at Booth and Brennan! *smooch*

Thank you.

[late-heart.livejournal.com]

Don't you know that I'm a huge fan of *your* Booth and Brennan? In your hands they are as they should be and I adore them.

I love to have a rubik's cube of relationships and aspects, love filling those squares with each of the possible ships. Vive l'amour!

[mistletoe54.livejournal.com]

There is rain like the Flood here and no Booth. I am therefore frustrated after reading today's ficlet. Grrrr!
Very nice exchange here. That Booth's a sneaky individual. He knows everything.

[buffyangellvr23.livejournal.com]

mmm nice :)

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[katethegater.livejournal.com]

Ha - love it!

Guessing you got some rain today? It has been raining like crazy today.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Yup, TS Hanna.

[kaydee23.livejournal.com]

I love it. The way you write them feels so natural and authentic. You have their voices down. I can see the two of them smiling at each other the breakfast table.

[shipperatheart.livejournal.com]

Lovely! Perfect combo of homy and hot. Loved Booth feigning ignorance at first and Brennan humoring him when he teases her about wanting to 'use him' (don't we all, baby!). Stick this under Hart's nose and then let him explain to us again why it will be boring to have these two in a relationship?

[xhio86.livejournal.com]

I definitely second that! ;)
I think that the fourth season would be perfect to start something...
I don't understand why they think it would be boring: whenever a relationship has been plain and straight??? And with those two?!? Oh, come on!

[toughlovebaby.livejournal.com]

i love straight forward brennan, and her sexual appetite.

[tempertemper77.livejournal.com]

*squees*

I LOVED this.

Loved this whole paragraph but this particularly: He knew her pebbled spine under the press of his tongue.

Swoonful image...

This whole thing was fab, playful and them :)

[xhio86.livejournal.com]

In only one word? Adorable.
I loved the initial Booth 'false innocence' :P

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Booth was rather sneaky here, wasn't he? *g*

[andzia-88.livejournal.com]

Adorable;D It's so natural, it could be a great scene on screen;)

[aynohyeb.livejournal.com]

he knew Bones’ bones*giggles*

I love the dry wit of their innuendos and the easiness between them and you master both of it perfectly!

[michellemtsu.livejournal.com]

*sigh* If only Hart had your imagination! Then we could see your wonderful scenario!

[kballgetlost.livejournal.com]

I love you and your fic...all of it, lol.

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Aww.... Thank you so much; you've totally made my day with your comment!

[odakota-rose.livejournal.com]

*snicker*
I missed reading a bunch of fics and this is why, heh. Those last few lines were just the laugh I needed.

[odakota-rose.livejournal.com]

Er.. *frowns at keyboard*
That is, this is why I missed reading them. *facepalm*

[lerdo.livejournal.com]

Hey, you! Are things a little better now?

And thanks -- I'm glad this got a chuckle out of you. :)

[odakota-rose.livejournal.com]

Eh. *shrugs*
A tiny bit better I suppose, it's just gonna take time. There's never been such a huge rift in my family before, and it'll take a while to put things back together.
*hug* Thanks for asking :)
