As soon as she had finished eating, Brennan pulled out her cell phone and called Lisa back. She told Lisa that she and Booth were willing to meet with the woman and discus the possibility of this film. Lisa sounded happy, and quickly gave Brennan her name again and her phone number. As soon as Brennan hung up with Lisa, she dialed River Morrigan’s number. The phone rang only once before someone picked up.
“Rapids Production, how may I help you?”
“I’m calling for River Morrigan.”
“This is her.”
“Oh, this is Dr. Temperance Brennan. I’m calling about your request.”
“Ah, I’m so glad te decided to contact me!”
“My partner and I would like to meet with te to discuss the details before we make any final decisions.”
“Of course, that’s all I wanted for now. Is there any specific time o giorno that would work best for te both?”
“Let me check.”
Brennan moved the phone from her ear and looked at Booth.
“What?” he asked, looking at the phone.
“Is there any time o giorno that works best for te to meet with her?”
“Oh, how about today? We don’t have a case right now, and it be good to do this while we’re not so busy.”
“Good point.”
Brennan raised the phone back up to her ear.
“What about today?”
“Well, I’m going to be out shooting until around four. Does four thirty work?”
“Four thirty?” Brennan asked looking, at Booth.
“I’m picking Parker up from school at three, he’s with me this weekend. It’s fine if she doesn’t mind that he be there.”
“Do te mind if a seven anno old boy is there?”
“That’s perfectly fine. Let me just give te my address.”
River gave Brennan the address and they detto goodbye. As soon as Brennan was off the phone Booth stood up and started picking up the lunch mess.
“Well, I better go. I still have a ton of paper work to do before I pick Parker up.”
“Ok, I’ll see te later then.”
“I’ll be here to pick te up around three thirty. You, me, and Parker can stop for some ice cream before the meeting.”
“Oh, alright, I guess that will work.”
“Great, see te then. Oh, and Bones, I’m really happy and excited.”
“Booth, we haven’t decided if we want to do the film yet.”
“No, Bones, about the baby.”
“Oh, right…I’m happy too.”
“Good.” detto Booth, wrapping his arms around her.
It only lasted a few seconds, but it felt like days as Brennan’s cuore began to race and pound. She wondered if Booth could feel how fast it was beating and then he started to sposta away. Part of her wanted him to let go as soon as possible, but another part wanted him to stay and hold her longer.
“See te later.” he said, and then suddenly and quickly kissed her.
She stood Frozen in her spot, eyes slightly wide and mouth barely open, as she watched him leave her office. Her head was spinning, cuore racing, and breath held, she felt almost like she was going to faint. As soon as Booth was clearly out of sight, she collapsed on the divano and started to breathe again.
Booth walked out of her office and down the stairs, saying a passing hello to Hodgins as he passed his station. He was smiling wildly and humming as he got to his vehicle. Just as he closed the door and put the keys in the ignition, he realized what he had done.
“Oh man, stupid!” he groaned and yelled at himself, hitting his head on the steering wheel repeatedly.
He did this about four times before hitting the horn accidentally and making himself jump. This shook him out of his head banging state and he took a few deep breaths to calm down. He pulled the visor down and looked in the mirror to make sure there wasn’t any visible damage. As he rubbed his head he began to reason with himself out loud.
“Ok, just pretend like it never happened, it’s that easy. Oh, come on Seeley, who are trying to kid? te can’t pretend it didn’t happen! Fine, I’ll just act like it didn’t mean anything. It didn’t really, it was just a reaction, that’ll work. Work, right, gotta go.” he conversed with himself, trying to stay calm and collected, then quickly flicked the visor back up before rolling his eyes and starting the car.
