Chapter 8 - Today?
He looked at her beautiful face and thought he had lost his mind. That had to be it. His brain tumor was back again. All of this had been a bad dream and he was going to wake up. He rocked back on his heels and looked at her smiling face.
She reached her hand out to caress his cheek “Booth are you OK?”
“I’m dreaming aren’t I? I’m going to wake up and all of this will be just another dream. I don’t think I can stand another dream Bones.”
Without saying a word she pinched his arm as hard as she could and bit his shoulder for good measure.
“Owww Bones that really hurt, why did you do that?”
“Because Booth you were beginning to get on my nerves. Now are we getting married today or not?”
“You ARE serious aren’t you? Not that I don’t want to marry you today or any other day you want but why today? I really need to know.”
“Are you saying no?”
He moved up to sit beside her and they turned to face each other making sure their eye contact held. For them looking into each other’s eyes had always been where they found truth. He did understand her. This was something just about them and just for them. For most couples a wedding was a way for friends and family to celebrate the new couple. They were not now nor had they ever been like most couples. For them this made sense. “No Bones, I’m saying I’ll marry you any day anywhere, but today would mean no Angela, Hodgins, Cam, Squint of the week or even, heaven forbid, Sweets.”
“Your right Booth, however, our marriage is a partnership between us and what is between us stays between us.” A sudden cloud came over her face “oh Booth I just thought of something Parker isn’t here either, when he supposed to return home? I’m quite sure you want him to be with us we should wait for him.”
“He won’t be home for a week yet. At the rate things have deteriorated between me and Becca, she might not even let him come no matter when we have it. You are right about today, about us. Our partnership has always been just between us and what is between us stays between us. That includes even something as important as our wedding. I love Parker, but Hank told me something when he told me Rebecca was a waste of time…”
“Hank told you Rebecca was a waste of time” she interrupted in surprise?
“Yeah, he really didn’t like her, but let me get back to what he said. He told me to take care of Momma first. When the kids are grown they move away and all that’s left at home is you and Momma. If you have made sure to take care of Momma and she has taken care of you, your Golden Years will be truly golden. So yeah, I agree with you, today, just you and me, is perfect. Now do you have an idea of where you want to get married?”
“Actually I was thinking of Las Vegas. I know it isn’t an ideal spot, but it could be romantic, we could make it romantic. It would insure we could be married today. We did like it when we went as Roxie and Tony,” she grinned at him.
“O yeah Roxie Baby whatever ya want.” Booth said in his best Tony voice causing them to fall on each other laughing. Of course the laughing led to Booth leaning over and starting to lick the spot on her chest that had now become his favorite staging area, the soft skin right between her breasts. All good assaults were dependant on a good staging area and from here he could press on to his goal, which ever nipple he desired, and enjoying the reaction he could create by his attention.
“Booth stop” she said as she pushed at him with ineffectual hands. “Give me that computer, you pack so we can get out of here and on to Vegas.”
He frowned at her trying to ignore her impatient pushing, finally he let go with a loud POP and smiled at her. “Owwooowww Booth, pleeeeasee let me do this. You know when you do that I can’t resists. I love you and I promise you can take up where you leave off later.
She shivered as he continued to kiss and lick her entire body down to her toes then smirked at her saying “You bet you will.”
She began to do the fastest research she had ever done. After an hour she told them what she had planned for them. “Booth I was able to book us for nine days in a suite at the Mandalay Bay and a flight out there leaving in two hours.”
“Two hours” whined Booth “ Bones, that won’t give us much time. I don’t know about you but I need to go back to my place and get more clothes if I’m going to be gone for that long as well as a suit. That’s another thing how do we get nine days off, call in sick every day?”
She smirked at him and said “judging from our time here Booth I don’t think clothes for nine days will be an issue, but you’re right I will need a dress to get married in and some clothes. I hadn’t thought about how to get the time off. I guess I can just tell Cam I won’t be in, she never seems to have a problem with it as long as there is nothing pressing at the lab. What about you?”
“I suppose I can call Cullen,” she could feel him becoming hesitant “tell him we are getting married and ask for the week off, he probably will give it to me, he has become quite fond of you, in case you didn’t know. Holding up his hand in a stop gesture “no he still won’t give you a gun, but he does like you. I have the time and like you said we don’t have any cases, I’m just not sure I want him to know just yet.”
She looked in his eyes and saw an uncertainty there. “Booth you don’t want Cullen to know or you don’t want anyone to know.”
He thought for a moment, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand. “Bones I’m not sure I want anyone to know right now.” He looked at her again, “Bones at has nothing to do with you or being married to you, I just want to keep it to myself for a while until I get used to the idea myself. I know it seems strange I have always been the one to push for marriage and believe me I want this more than you can possibly know; I just want it to be ours for awhile and not let everyone we know blow it all out of proportion. You know they will. Can you imagine what Cam and Angela are going to do just with the information that we have been sleeping together since New Year’s Eve? Now add a wedding to that, one we don’t even want anyone to go to? Can I just have you to myself for a little while, please? Let them think we are just a couple, that we finally came to our senses, which we did by the way.”
“So how long would this secrecy last?”
“I don’t know do we have to decide today?” Looking at her face and unsure at what he saw he quickly said “hey if it’s a deal breaker I’ll give it up.”
“I don’t know what that means.”
“Sorry Baby, a deal breaker means if keeping our marriage a secret means either you won’t marry me or it makes you unhappy I won’t ask you. I’ll live with it.”
“No Booth actually I think not telling anyone is a good choice for us. Like you said our friends get to see us as a couple and then we can tell them we are married. I know Angela will be angry but I think she will get over it when she realizes she has what she wanted, you and me together. Now back to the problem that started this, we really only need five days off the rest are this week-end and next. Aren’t you the one that’s supposed to be so good at this?”
“Me? How did I become the consummate liar? Ok how about this. Monday you call Cam and tell her you need the week to work on your new book, the publisher has moved up the date or something like that. I’ll call Charlie and tell him I’m sick, which is not a lie because I am sick with love for you,” he leaned over and pulled her into a long kiss that threatened to drag both of them into the fog of sensuality that seemed to raise around them constantly.
She pulled away “Booth the plane leaves in two hours and you wanted clothes lets go.” She grabbed his arm and they started out the door.
On the way down in the elevator he asked her “So Bones which Airline had First Class seats available on New Year’s Day?”
“You’ll find out when we get there Booth, now come on.”
She was definitely in a hurry and pulling him out to the SUV, where the attendants had it waiting. He liked this impatient Bones, one who was in a hurry to get married. Married to Bones, that was another dream he never thought would come true. This year was starting out to be one of great firsts. How long would they last? He didn’t know, but he would take every one he could get.
In order to get everything done in the amount of time they had he dropped her at her apartment to pack and he went on to his. He would return as soon as he was done and they would go to the airport.
Brennan had packed everything she wanted to take; she even had a few surprises she thought he might really like. Now all she needed was the dress she wanted to get married in. She had plenty of dresses, some Booth had never seen but she wanted something he would like. She looked them over then decided on the one she was sure he would like. It was a very simple pale blue sheath dress. She smiled and returned to find a bra and panties set, garter belt and nylons all in bale blue to match the dress. She was sure Booth would like the dress, but even more sure he would like what he found under it. Just as she was closing the closet door she saw it. The Roxie dress. A wicked smile came over her face. Booth would definitely like this one so into the garment bag it went also. This meant another trip to look for matching underwear, but she had everything she knew he would like and into the suitcase it went. One last quick change of clothes and she was ready for him. She finished just as he knocked on her door.
Opening the door he kissed her quickly and asked where her bags were. Yes, he told her he knew she could carry them. Yes, he told her he was aware he was being an alpha male but he reminded her she loved him anyway. She laughed and they were quickly on their way.
Once they arrived at the airport he asked “OK Bones now you need to tell me what Airline we are using.”
“Turn off here,” she indicated toward the General Aviation Terminal.
“OK why here?”
“You can stop here Booth,” she said as they pulled up to a private jet company. “Don’t make a big deal out of it. My usual airline recommended it when they didn’t have any seats available. I think we will both enjoy it.”
He was about to do something stupid like complain when she leaned up and gave him a kiss that felt like it melted the snow around his feet. If a private plane was going to get him more kisses like that well who was he to complain?
They were shown to the plane that would take them away.
