Sweet's explained, βThatβs a little exercise, if you will, that I like to call The Truth is Out There.β
Booth chuckled.
βThat explains a lot about you, Sweets!β He turned to his partner. βHe's a X-Files shipper.β
βYou ship sex files?β she asked, lost. βWhatβs that mean?β
Booth laughed even louder. Mind in the gutter, much?
βNot sex files. The X-Files. The TV show. Mulder and Scully.β
Those names sounded familiar to her.
βDo I have to watch this show? I think youβve mentioned those names before.β
βAsk Hodgins. He probably have the dvds somewhere.β
βWhy? Whatβs it about?β Brennan asked.
Booth said, βAliens. Conspiracies...β
But Sweets said, βFBI guy, female doctor, partners fighting crime and falling in love.β
The silence that set in, even Brennan would have qualified it as βheavyβ. Even though you canβt weight silence.
βRemember the questionnaire you took when you first started therapy?β Sweets finally said.
Oh. My. God.
βIβm giving them back to you. I want you to...β
βDestroy them?β Booth mumbled.
βNo.β
βFrame them?β he suggested.
βAre they graded?β Brennan said to make Booth laugh.
"Good one!" he said, high fiving her. She loved making him laugh.
βI want you, as a last assignment, to share your answers with the other.β
Booth hugged the file tightly on his chest.
βYou canβt make us to that,β he refused. βThatβs personal.β
βAnd thatβs exactly why you should share.β
βYou know,β Booth said, βhe would never know if we shared or not. We donβt have to...β
Curiosity probably was a sin. But she wasnβt catholic.
βDoes agent Booth have a body in his dresser?β
Booth frowned, repeated the words to himself, then his clear laugh filled the elevator. She smiled.
