All Discalimers Apply and they are that Bones belongs to FOX and not me =(


The Heartache in the House

Brennan stumbled through the door to Booth's house. She set her purse down on his counter and absentmindedly walked through his living room

Tears slid silently down her cheeks as she slid her jacket off her arms and threw it onto his chair.

Hours before, her partner has been shot. And 20 minutes ago, he was pronounced dead

Brennan's breathing turned from being ragged, to being full sobs

She walked into Booth's room and sat on the edge of his bed. She pulled off her boots and threw them against his wall

She stood up and walked to his dresser; she pulled out one of his shirts and brought it to her nose. It still smelled like his cologne even though if had been washed.

Brennan silently pulled off her shirt and jeans, and slid his shirt over her arms. She slid the buttons into their appropriate button holes and pulled down the covers of his bed

It did seem a little strange to be in her dead partner's house, wearing his clothes and sleeping in his bed, but at this point she didn't care. She missed him too much and didn't want to let him go.

She slid into his bed and pulled the covers up to her face. She hugged his pillow and took a deep breath; it smelled like his shampoo strongly

It was painful thinking that he was sleeping here just yesterday, but will never sleep in this bed ever again

"Booth…" she sobbed wiping a tear from her eye

Brennan remembered all of the times they spent together, and how she never told him how she felt

"I'm such an idiot," she whispered "I wanted to tell him but I couldn't…"

She repeated these words to herself "I should have told him, I should have told him I loved him…" she whispered before slipping into sleep

Brennan opened her eyes to find Booth standing in the door to his bedroom

"Booth you're…" she began but stopped as he strode to sit next to her on his bed

"I will never leave you Temperance," he whispered wiping away a stray tear with his thumb

"Booth…I have to tell you…" Brennan began

"I know," he whispered "I love you too…"

"But…" Brennan began but was cut off by a finger pressed to her lips

"Don't question…don't think…just feel," he whispered

Brennan nodded and rested her hands on his neck

Booth rested his hand on her cheek, his other hand resting on her hip. He pulled her towards him, placing a light and intimate kiss onto her lips

Brennan gasped as lightning surged down her spine and branched out through her nerves

Booth took his hand from her hip and placed it on the mattress next to him, he pressed Brennan down onto his bed, his hand still at her cheek as their kiss deepened to house passion and love

Brennan shot straight up and gasped, her brow creased in cold sweat. Her chest rose violently up and down and she saw something move out in the corner of her eye

Brennan timidly stood and grabbed his gun that she knew he kept in his dresser. She moved forward into his living room and pressed her back to the wall of the hall way

She heard someone moving around and tore from the wall, jumping out into the living room the gun ready to fire

Brennan gasped when she saw a familiar man smiling at her "Booth?" she asked, lowering the gun

"Hey Bones…" Booth whispered
