THE PARTS IN THE SUM OF THE WHOLE

It's maybe both the point of a contrived reveal and developing dynamics. But also has some basis in character psychologies. As they aren't quite in the same place. It had appeared, at least, in admitting it to themselves. Booth has been more open to others about his romantic feelings for Brennan in recent history. But not to Sweets if I recall correctly. Where as she is still more scared of loosing what they have built. She's also taking the position of denying and dismisses it to others. He plays along until he's risked saying something here. Once it's finally out there. But they have far more to loose now, than they had back then. We might note that Brennan never said she didn't feel the same way, only that she didn't wish to take the risk in going down that path. She is as much protecting his heart as she is her own.
