"You missed a spot" Jeff said to Abed, pointing at the little puddle of ketchup on the coffee table.
He'd gotten home from the restaurant just in time to stop Chang, Troy, Abed and Annie from playing Monkey-drop, but not soon enough to stop the ketchup fight. After a solid five minutes of yelling, he'd sent Chang to the 24 hour corner-store to buy cleaning equipment, and forced the four of them to clean up everything. As they mopped, and wiped, and washed, and swept, he sat on his couch with a beer and watched Bones.
"You know you could help" Annie said. She was kneeling down in front of him, wiping a stain beside the couch.
"Yes, because I'm going to help you clean up the mess you made."
"Well, you didn't have to be such a jerk about it" She muttered under her breath.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize that if I sprayed your apartment with ketchup, you'd bake me cookies and give me a hug" Jeff said. He ducked his head little to see what Booth was talking about behind Troy's head.
"Well, it's not just this, you know. You've been a jerk all night" She said.
"How?" Jeff asked. Troy moved his head, so now Jeff had to stretch his neck up to see what the hell was going on in Angela's office.
"Oh, let's see. You completely destroyed Pierce's relationship, for starters" Annie said. She sat back on her knees and put her hands on her hips. It would have been intimidating if she wasn't so small and covered in ketchup.
"Annie, that wasn't a relationship. She was using him. He should be thanking me" Jeff reasoned. Troy somehow managed to be even more in the way than he was before, and Jeff resisted the urge to throw the remote at his head.
"You only helped him because you're a sad man who doesn't believe that some one could actually care for him" Annie said. She was doing that thing where she subtly tried to make him feel guilty. It wasn't working. It really wasn't.
"That's not true. I believe people can care for him, but she's young and attractive. Young and attractive don't tend to go for almost twice as old without an ulterior motive" Jeff said. Troy finally moved, and Jeff took a sip of his beer, finally relaxing back into the couch.
"But what if they fit really well together?" Annie asked.
"Doesn't mean it'll work."
"But sometimes it does."
"People could get hurt, Annie."
"What, so it's not worth trying?"
Jeff turned to look at her. She was sitting on the floor with her arms crossed and a challenging expression. Fine. If she wanted to play, then he'd play. He muted Bones, placed his beer on the coffee table, put his feet on the ketchup stained floor, and prepared to lawyer the crap out of this argument.
"Okay. Say they do try? Say Pierce and Wu Mei get married? It'll be nice at first. They'll be all sunshine and rainbows, and perverse sexual acts that he'll later describe to us in horrifying detail. But then, reality will hit them. She's hot, and beautiful, and young, and if she really wanted to, she could do better. She won't, because she wants him for now. But one day she'll grow up, and realize she doesn't want his racist comments or groping anymore; She wants some one better suited. Sure, whoever it is probably won't match her as well as Pierce did, but in the end it won't matter. She wins. Pierce is left sad and alone, and then he dies. The end."
He took a victory sip of his beer, and returned his attention to Brennan and the dead body before she could give him the Disney eyes and make him feel like crap. He could still feel her staring at him from his peripheral. He wanted to scratch the side of his face, and then maybe hide behind his hand.
"Okay..." She said, slowly. She seemed to be considering her next move very carefully. "That could happen. Or..."
Jeff tried not to, but he couldn't resist glancing over at her.
"Or, they could go through a lot of problems like many normal couples do. And they could learn to ignore the age thing. And you know, maybe she already knows that she could do better if she tried. I mean, have you ever considered the fact that maybe she doesn't care. Maybe, she wants to date him, because he's the one who makes her feel like she's more than just some lying, racist, moist-towelette...person; You know, because he's the same as her too, and she finds that comforting."
She finished off with this sweet hopeful smile that was all love is beautiful and happily ever after! Ugh, he hated when she had a point.
"Or maybe-" Chang's voice cut through Jeff's train of thought. The little Asian man was sitting beside Jeff, instead of cleaning the kitchen like he had been literally two seconds ago. "-the two of you are way over thinking Pierce and the Red Dragon's relationship. I mean it's Pierce we're talking here. He'll probably divorce her in a month after the sex gets boring." He took a sip of Jeff's beer, and then nudged him. "Hey, turn it up, man."
"What do you think you're doing?" Jeff asked in his low, calm warning voice.
"Chang-ing up on my Bones, man! What's happened so far?"
Jeff answered by hitting him in the arm with the remote. "Finish cleaning!" He ordered.
"Alright! Gees, Winger. Control your rage issues" Chang said, rubbing his arm.
Jeff rolled his eyes. Annie giggled.
"Pass me the phone" Jeff said to her. "I need to sort some things out between Pierce and Wu Mei."
She handed him the phone with a hint of pride, and the love is beautiful smile again. Curse that damned smile. He was helpless.
