She looked a little scary laying there next oo him. A terrifying angelic and peacefulness. She, herself, wasn't actually that terrifying- but the power she held over the man holding her- that was a little scary. For all he knew she could wake up at any moment and leap out of his arms with a plane ticket to the other end of the earth. He sure hoped she didn't, if she ran, she was taking his heart with her. Last night there had been a lot of words and then none at all. The moment he took her hand in his, aside from a couple of passionate declarations in the throws, nothing had been discussed.

Suddenly he felt her shift and her eyes open lazily, "Hi."

Her eyes adjust to the light and found his, "Good morning." A smile.

"... Did you sleep well?" that awkward morning-after started to fill his mind.

She gave a slight gutted giggle, "Very well." Her lips found his neck and began tracing his jaw. No indication of no regret- because she had none.

"You're very affectionate," now he was giggling; her lips were so light and delicate against his rough and unshaven stubble.

"You sound surprised..." she backed off him. "I know that I can come off as cold but I'm not completely unable to express feelings of..."

"What? No, Bones," Somehow he'd already managed to mess up. "I didn't mean it like that. I'm just surprised that you're being affectionate to me..."

"I wouldn't have slept with you, Booth, if I didn't have genuine feelings for you..." she was confused and a little hurt. Was it that bizarre to see her be loving? True it wasn't always ease for her but...

"No. I don't mean it like that either, Bones," He could feel her getting ready to bolt so he held her a little tighter. "I just can't believe that you're finally here. That you're finally with me. I've wanted this for so long."

"Oh..." suddenly she felt a little ashamed and a little embarrassed by his desire. Jumping to conclusions before she had all the facts. "I've wanted this too..."

He pulled her up to him. First kiss of their first morning. She deepened it; crawling on top of him. He hadn't been trying to initiate another round but he certainly wouldn't object to it. He'd never object. "I like this new side of you. Very very affectionate."

"I'm appreciative..." she moaned into his mouth. She was also not completely sure she was able to walk after last night. They both had excellent stamina.

He moved to kiss right behind her ear, "I know you are..." His tongue pulled on her earlobe, "You were multiply appreciative..."

"You're bragging," although she knew it was true. "Would like to test this. Just so we know your theory isn't a fluke?" she could be suggestive too.

He flipped her over; ready for the challenge. But before he could continue, he knew there were a couple of matters that had to be addressed. "Bones... Bones, hold on a second." But she wasn't ready too. Once the sequence had been activated- Brennan was very hard to stop. "Hold on. Stop... We have to talk first."

"What do we have to talk about...?"

"This thing we're starting, Bones. You know its not just sex, right?" He hated having to clarify like this- but with Bones it was necessary. If they weren't upfront about this now, he knew she would retreat with a claim that this was only sex later. He couldn't have that. "This is much more than just sex to me, Bones. You need to know that before we go any farther."

Her assaults on his body ceased, "You mean... you want a relationship? With me?"

"Yeah, Bones. I do. And if you can't do that I need to know..." He could see her face suddenly growing much more serious than it had been only moments ago. Her playful nature... gone. "I need to know, Bones. You know how I feel about you."

"You love me."

His eyes widened. She did know. "Yeah."

"I know that this is more than a sexual relationship... or that it will be. I know that you want that. I think that I would like that as well," she suddenly felt naked in more ways than one underneath him. A very new rush and sensation. "You do love me, right?" I suddenly occurred to her that he might just be saying he loved her because she had made the accusation at him.

"Yeah, Bones. I love you," This hadn't really been the way he'd always planned to say it to her. But then nothing between them had every really follow a plan.

She nodded and tears began to fill her eyes; her body pulled him close to her. There was nothing lustful or sexual between them at that moment- just pure love. "I.." she tried to say the words but tears began fall and her throat began to tighten. "I..."

"Hey... its okay, Bones. You don't have to say anything back..."

"No... I..." she wanted so badly to say the words. She pulled apart from him... "Booth... I..." she nodded her head. The words were to difficult to say. Not because she didn't want to say them or because she didn't mean them. She was too overwhelmed with the weight of them. These weren't words she threw around lightly... or had ever truly spoken in this respect.

"I know..." he wrapped his body around hers. "You don't have to say it. I know."

END.
