Chapter twelve

The sound of my heart goes boom

Brennan's POV

My legs laid over Seeley's lap and he caressed my thighs gently. "Try this." He said softly and held out his spoon. I reached out to grab it from him but he pulled it back and smiled. I tilted my head to the side and smiled.

"No, it's better when someone feeds you it, I promise." He said and guided the spoon to my lips. I felt the flavor against my tongue as I closed my mouth around the spoon. Coffee. I moaned slightly earning a wide eyed expression from Seeley. I giggled and put my hand to my mouth gently.

"That's really good." I said softly and felt him squeeze gently on my thigh. "What?" I said innocently and tilted my head.

"You know what, we're in public.." He hissed jokingly.

"Oh, we are?" I gave him a toothy grin. "I didn't know.." I winked and giggled.

"Oh, ha ha.." He said scooping up the last of his ice cream. "You ready to go?" He asked turning towards me, caressing my thigh.

"So now we're in a hurry?" I asked. I put my hand on his shoulder and gasped. "Did I do something?" And smiled. He just stood up and reached out his hand towards me.

"Yeah, you're being goofy and there isn't a smurf for that.." He mumbled jokingly and I grabbed his hand. We slowly walked out of the ice cream shop and got to the car. I stopped him and threw my arms around his shoulders.

"Could I maybe drive back home?" I asked and kissed him. He put his arms around me and groaned slightly.

"Let me think about that.." He mocked a thinking face. "..Hmm, no." I glanced back at me and I let my jaw drop.

"What.. Why? You said you would teach me.." I said and clung onto his shoulders. "You promised.." I said and smiled. I knew he wouldn't break a promise.

"Yeah, I know.." He said and fixed my hat. "But it's late and we both are tired.." He added. I pouted and made my eyes big and blinked at him.

"Pleaaase.." I pleaded and stood on my tippy toes and leaned in to his ear. "I'll repay the favor.." I whispered in his ear and felt his knees give in a little. "More than once.." I added and bit his earlobe gently. He groaned and spun me around.

"Why are you so irresistible?" He asked and put me down. His hands felt on his pockets and he dug out the keys. He held them up for me and I tried to grab them. He pulled them away and sighed. "You.." He closed his eyes to think. "You are driving slowly, not over 20.." He held them out again for me, but pulled them away before I could grab them. I scoffed and he smiled. "You know what, I'll just drive home, you can drive some other time.."

"No, please, I'll be good.." I pleaded and put my arms around his waist. "On the road.." I added and smirked. He threw his head back and groaned.

"Fine, FINE, okay.." He gave me the keys and giggled. I kissed his cheek and ran over to the drivers side and got in. Seeley jumped into the passenger side and sighed when he sat down. "Okay, this is a vintage car with a gentle clutch, so you have to be careful.." He pointed to me and the stick in the middle. He put his hand on it and glanced up to me. "This part is connected to the pedal on your left, there are three pedals, the middle one is the break and the right one is the gas." He explained.

"The gas.." I repeated.

"Yes the gas, but you are not allowed to use it to the fullest." He said. "When you are gonna change gear you have to press down the left pedal and move this, the lower the gear the more gentle you have to be, okay?" I nodded. "This is my baby, okay? Fuck, why are we doing this.." I sighed.

"Okay, switch gears with this and the pedal, and the gas and break." I went over his instructions. "I think I got it.." I said and turned to him.

"Okay.. Then put in the key and turn it on.. Hold down the clutch and turn it, the car is already in gear one. " He said gently and pointed to the keyhole. I put the key in and turned it. The motor made the usual sound and I smiled. "Be careful, I can't.. Just be careful.."

I let the clutch go gently I felt the car go forward. "So when do I change gear?" I asked and grabbed the wheel tightly.

"You can be in this gear in the parking lot, turn to get out on the street.." I pointed to the entrance of the lot.

"Already?" I asked in a hissed voice.

"Yeah, there aren't any people out at this time." He shrugged. "And we have to go home, you know.." He winked. "Okay, stop here, hold down the middle pedal and the left one." I did as he instructed. "Look both ways, turn on the turn signal to the right." He looked at me to see that I was doing as I was being told. "Good, okay turn right and let go of both slowly." I did and the car jump slightly. "Easy, easy.." He hissed. He patted the car gently. "it's okay, baby.." I glanced at him and laughed. "What? You have to be gently with her." He said and leaned back.

"Her?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes, her." He said and glanced at the road. "Okay, you are gonna shift up to second gear now. Press down the left pedal and switch the stick to second." He looked down at the stick as I did what he wanted. "Good, now you can go a little faster." I pressed down on the gas hard. "NOT that fast." He yelled and I slowed down. I laughed softly.

"I'm sorry, I just had to.." I said and glanced towards him.

"Don't do it again, okay?" He glanced at me and put his hand on my thigh gently. I glanced down and the up again at the road and nodded.

The ride went smooth with Seeley instructing me through every turn and sign. There were only a few blocks home now. "I can see why you love driving." I said quietly.

"It's quite soothing, isn't it?" He replied and I could feel his eyes on me. I nodded and felt my cheeks getting darker.

"Why are you looking at me?" I asked in a giggle.

"What? I can't look at my girlfriend?" He said confidently. I kept my eyes on the road and felt a wide smile spread on my lips.

"Girlfriend huh?" I asked smiling. He chuckled and I felt his hand land on my thigh again.

"Yeah, I mean, it would only be right to call the most beautiful girl my girlfriend.." He squeezed my thigh.

"Yeah, it's the only right thing.." I whispered and smiled. "So, I can call you my boyfriend?" I ask quietly.

"No, boytoy. I go by boytoy." He smiled. "I would love if you called me your boyfriend." He added. We turned the last corner onto our street, the house was the last on it.

"I would love that too.." I whispered and smiled. A car on the other side of the road further ahead was swerving back and forth over on our side. "What.. Are they..?" I asked in confusion. Seeley looked at what I gestured towards.

"Keep on your side, further to the side.." He pointed to the side. The car sped up and got closer and closer. "WATCH OUT." He yelled out. I turned the car harshly to the left to get out of the way. The car hit the back of the car and we drove into the nearest tree. My head hit the wheel and then I blacked out.

S Booth's POV

I shook my head to asses the situation and I glanced over to the drivers seat. "Temperance." I called out and touched her shoulder. "Hey, hey, baby.." I shook her gently. No response. "Shit.." I took off my seat belt and felt a sting in my shoulder. "Ah, what..?" I whispered and looked down. A huge piece of glass stuck out and blood was slowly running down. "Shit.." I gently opened the car door and got out. We had landed in the ditch and the car had crash into the tree in front of us. "Fuck.." I exclaimed when I saw the front of the car. My worked on adrenaline and I walked around to her side of the car and opened her door.

I caressed her cheek. "You have to wake up, Sherlock.." I whispered. "Come on, hey, come on.." I shook her gently again. I couldn't bring her out of the car with the glass in my shoulder so I ripped a piece of my t shirt, yanked out the piece and wrapped my arm quickly. I could barely move my arm but I had to get her out of the car.

"Seeley?" I heard from the other side of the road, followed by footsteps. "Is that you? Where is Temperance?" The voice asked. "The passenger seat is empty.." The person looked over to where I stood. "You let her drive?" Dad asked sternly. "Do not tell me you let her drive, boy." He walked over to me and he glanced down at the unconscious body in the driver's seat. "What the fuck happened?" He asked.

"I… I- She wanted to drive and- and- and there weren't any people on the road and we were driving really slow and- and- the driver on the other side he- he- swerved into our lane and- and she swerved out of the- the.." I stuttered and felt tears falling down my cheeks.

"Sweetheart, what happened?" Mom came up to us and grabbed my arm.

"I-.." I began but broke down. "She can't die.. Not when.. I.. I shouldn't have.." I choked out. I saw how dad got Temperance out of the car and held her in bridal style. "I.."

"Come on.. We have to go to the hospital, now" He exclaimed and walked to the his own car. "We will take care of your car later."

She woke up when we got to the hospital, completely disoriented. "Hey, you're okay, we're at the hospital.." I reassured her.

"What.. What happened?" She asked and looked around grabbing tightly on dads shoulder.

"Princess, you were in an accident, you'll be fine, okay?" Dad told her and kissed her head.

The visit at the hospital went by quicker than I thought. They looked at my shoulder, the glass had torn my muscle and I wasn't allowed to move it for weeks. I couldn't lift it over my head, which I needed for basketball. I can't lose that, that's all I have for the future. They helped Temperance, her foot had been crushed and she had to have a cast and crutches. She had a slight concussion and had to rest for a few days. Her eyes met mine as they put on her cast I could see the worry in her eyes as the glance down at my shoulder. I only shook my head and smiled at her. It's all my fault. My eyes matched her worry when I looked at her leg, it's all my fault.

"Careful, careful.." I said as I guided her to her bed.

"I am careful" She exclaimed and sat down on the bed. "You don't have to help me every step I take." I grab the blanket underneath her and helped her settle into the bed.

"I know.. I know I don't have to.." I said quietly patting down her blanket and smoothing it down. "I just.. I shouldn't have let you drive, you're not driving ever again, that can't happen again, do you hear me?" I paused and my eyes met her. "You didn't wake up and I thought that you.. And then your foot got crushed and-"

"Hey, hey.." She interrupted me. I could feel tears falling down my cheeks. "I was the one that asked, not you, it's my fault okay?" She put her hand on my cheek. I shook my head.

"It's still my car, my responsibility, I'm the older one, I should have.. You're not driving again, not under my watch, no one is driving again in my car except me. Ever. " I said sternly and stood up. My fingers scratched the back off my head as I paced around. "And I fucked up my shoulder, I won't be able to play basketball or football for like ever, if I ever can do it again, I just.. I shouldn't have allowed it.." I rubbed my face and glanced at her. "I'm gonna move in the tv in here so we can watch movies here Instead" I said as I left the room.

Brennan's POV

I saw how he left the room and I let out the breath that I was apparently holding in. My body felt like a big rock had rolled over me. I winced as I gently moved my leg, I wasn't allowed to walk on it for at least 2 weeks. That's just before christmas, I have to learn how to walk these stupid crutches too.

I heard Seeley yelling at the tv as he moved it towards my room, I giggled at the sound. "Do you need help?" I called out and smiled.

"No, no it's fine.." I heard him call back. A few moments later the tv was positioned in front of my bed. "There we go. It has the smurfs already in there." He said as he turned and smiled at me. I motioned for him to sit beside me. He slowly walked around the bed so his bad shoulder was on the other side. I furrowed my brows.

"I want to be able to hold you close, you're not going to be far away from me for the next couple of days.." He said as he sat down and wrapped his arm around me. "Grab the remote" He pointed to the bed beside me. I reached over and gave it to him, I still hadn't learnt how to use it and he knew this. He chuckled and kissed my head. "You know.. You're gonna have to learn how to use it soon.." I shook my head into his chest.

"Nope, you're always gonna be here so I don't need to know how to use it."I smiled as I heard him let out another chuckle.

"Mmhhm" He murmured and turned on the tv and pressed play.

The movie played in the background, I knew how the movie played out scene by scene, I could close my eyes and listen to words. There was a part in the movie that Seeley always commented on because he didn't find it reasonable at all. I got ready to hush him and tell him that it's just cartoons.

"Sssh, it's just-" I stopped, he hadn't said it. I glanced up at him to find him looking at me with his hazel eyes. "What.. Why are you so quiet today?" I asked him quietly. He just shrugged and gestured for me to keep watching the movie. "No, tell me." I sat up straighter and grabbed the remote and glanced down at it. "Hm.." I stared at it trying to find the pause button. "Why doesn't it just say 'here is the pause button'?" I asked in a whisper, I heard him chuckled and point on the remote. "Oh.." I pressed pause and looked at him. "Talk."

He sighed and glanced up at the ceiling. "Maybe.. Maybe, he is better for you.." he whispered still looking up.

"Who?" I asked grabbing his hand. He glanced down at me and then our linked hands. He caressed my thumb carefully.

"TD, I know he likes you and all, the way he looks at you, it's obvious.." He said not meeting my eyes. "But you know, be careful with all of his.." He made a disgusted face and gestured towards his genitals.

"Okay, no, wait where is all of this coming from? Where is the 'You're mine' Watson?" I put my hand on his cheek.

"He is still here, he is just.." He said softly and shrugged.

"Okay, I know he has feelings for me, he told me." I said and squeezed his hand. His head turned up and his eyes met mine.

"He told you? When?" He said sternly.

"In DC" I said shortly.

"In DC, that little fucker, he gets you away for a weekend and he puts his little STD fingers on you and-" He starts saying, I notice his anger starting to build up.

"Okay, none of that now." I laughed. "It wasn't like that, okay?" I assured him. "He told me he liked me, and had for some time, but he wouldn't act on it because he saw the way you looked at me." I saw the anger in his eyes disappear. "He told me that he would be my friend, because he liked being around me."

"What way do I look at you?" He asked softly and caressed my cheek.

"Like that.." I said. "He described it as 'as if no one else matters in the room'" I added. He smiled and kissed my cheek.

"Well, No one else does matter when you're there." I smiled and felt my cheeks getting warm.

"Stop.." I pleaded softly enough to not be believable. "Also, you should stop calling him STD, he doesn't deserve it." I said as my eyes met his. He looked at me with confusion.

"But he gave all of those girls STD's and he is a douchebag mostly." He said and scoffed.

"No, no, since when do you actually spend time with him and actually know how he is?" I asked and folded my arms over my chest.

"I.. I actually haven't talked to him, it's just what Georgie and Emma said about him." He defended himself. I scoffed at his response.

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth, I expect an apology from you." I pointed at him and he put up his hand and nodded. "Of course, Emma would say that, it's so.. Of course she would.." I shook my head.

"What do you mean of course?" He asked and sat up straighter.

"So, you know how Emma and TD were together last year?" I asked him.

"Yeah, how do you know that?" He asked back.

"He told me, anyway, they were together and I think he said they were together for a while right?" I said and furrowed my brows in question.

"Yeah, it might have been five months?" He said and nodded. "Yeah, five months."

"Yeah, so Emma wanted to go further then he wanted, she was tired of just kissing and holding hands and a few touches here and there, you know?" I asked and he nodded. "What he said there was a nasty break up, right?" Seeley chuckled remembering it.

"Yeah, the whole school was involved."

"Yeah, so she didn't want to seem needy for wanting more in the relationship, but she also thought that they had been together long enough to have had sex, because 5 months is apparently a lot" I said in confusion.

"It's not really.." He said. "Irrelevant, go on" He gestured for me to go on.

"So, she told some of her friends that he gave her an STD and that he cheated, so the next day, after the fight, no one talked to him anymore, except for when girls wanted to go on a date with him to 'lose their virginity', so now he is an outcast because of her." I told him and grabbed his hand.

"Wait, that must have been around the time that Jackson hooked up with Emma, wait.." He stopped and looked at me. "Was it the other way around? Was Emma the one that cheated on him and got the STD from Jackson?" He gasped. I nodded. "Wow.. I should not have been so hard on TD.."

"No you shouldn't have." I said sternly.

"Look, I'm sorry, okay? I shouldn't have said those things yesterday or any of it, I won't call him that name anymore.." He pleaded.

"I'm not the one that needs the apology, Watson." I said and took the remote. "Where was the button?" I stared at the remote and tried to find it before he did. I saw him point and laugh.

"I'll apologize, okay?" he chuckled and wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer.

I got to school on tuesday after the accident, the doctor didn't allow me to go yesterday. Seeley helped me get out of bed and picked out my clothes. Joggers and a sweatshirt was what he picked out. I looked at him with the clothes in my hand. "What, your cast?" He put up his hands in defence and chuckled. "I would pick a skirt and that sexy shirt with the wrap, but it isn't dresscode and I wouldn't want Jackson eyeing you" He whispered in my ear before leaving the room. '

I got dressed and hopped out to the stairs on my crutches. I stood there waiting for Seeley to get ready and carry me down. I wanted to walk down myself, but he would only yell at me and say that I don't listen. I do listen, I just know I can do it on my own.

"There you are, ready?" He asked. I nodded and put the crutches to the side and put my arms around his neck. "I won't drop you." He assured me.

"I know, if you do I will kill you, I know how to" I said without missing a beat. "You shouldn't carry me, your arm."

"Oh, do you now? Care to tell the class?" He chuckled and picked me up in bridal style. "And no, I'll carry you, stop."

"Nope, it's a secret." I replied and scoffed jokingly. He chuckled and walked us down. He put me down on the couch in front of the stairs. "Don't move" He winked.

"Oh, ha ha, like I can" I exclaimed and folded my arms over my chest. I saw him silently run up the stairs retrieving my crutches and walked just as silent down again. "Why did I have to break my stupid foot.."

"At least it was just your foot.." He said and kissed my head. "I'll get our lunches and then I'll help you down to the car. I nodded and leaned back and sighed.

The ride to school was filled with music as usual. "Do you have yesterday's homework with you?" He asked as he parked. I glanced at him and smiled.

"Does the sun shine?" I asked back at him.

"Okay, lookie here missy, I have been nothing but nice to you" He chuckled. "Just checking, don't want you to fall behind." He put his hand on my thigh and squeezed.

he opened his door and quickly walked over to my side. "Mi lady" He said as he opened it.

"Kind sir" I said as I gave him my crutches and gently got out of the car. "I got it." I said as he tried to help me up.

"I just don't want you to put any weight on it." He said softly as I got up on my foot.

"I won't, okay?" I assured him and caressed his arm. He smiled and let out a worried sigh.

"I'll just go with you all day." He said giving me my crutches.

"No, you don't have the last class with me, but TD does, and he will help me, I promise" I said and steadied myself on the crutches. "Can you take my bag?" I asked as I scrunch my face. "I might need some help.."

"TB" I heard behind us.

"Speaking of.." Seeley murmured.

"Remember what I said, okay?" I pointed at him and turned around gently.

"TB, gosh, I was so worried when I heard that you were home because of an accident.." He said and hugged me gently and then backed away quickly and scratched the back of his head. "And oh, Booth, how is your arm? I heard that it didn't look good.. I'm sorry about that." He said looking over to Seeley and gesturing towards his arm. "I hope it heals quickly."

"I hurts like a son of a bitch but Sherlock here got the short straw.." He said and ruffled my hair. "Speaking of, you have last period with her, can you make sure she doesn't fall to here face? I think we both know how clumsy she is" He asked TD and he laughed.

"Yeah, TB is clumsier than anyone I know, I'll take care of her, Booth" He said and nodded.

"Good, thank you." Seeley said and glanced at the ground. "And.. Uhm.. I'm sorry for how I have treated you during the school year, I didn't know the truth, I should've asked you instead.." Seeley apologized. "I'm sorry I called you names."

"It's cool dude, I mean I would've done the same." TD said and waved it off.

"So we're good?" Seeley asked and scratched his head.

"Yeah, we're good." TD said and checked the time. "I'm happy you both are okay, but I gotta go, Mrs. E let me borrow her text book over the weekend and I forgot to give it back yesterday. "See you last period, TB, Later, Booth" We both waved him off and slowly made our way into the school.

"My, my, isn't karma a bitch" I heard Sarah coming up to me by my locker. "What happened? Fell for another guy who was taken?" She asked and pushed me. I dropped my crutches and put my arm over my stomach.

"I didn't take anyone, for the last time, it was a dare, Sarah." I said and bent down to grab my crutches. I felt her hands on my shoulders pushing me down further.

"I don't see it like that, I see it as you finally got you chance on the guy that I said that I liked." She said and pushed away from me.

"Saarah, knock it off" I heard Seeley coming up to us. "We weren't together and to burst your little bubble, we would never have gotten together, we didn't even kiss." He said and pushed past her to help me up.

"I thought you said you guys hooked up" I heard someone say behind Sarah. She spun around and scoffed.

"Yeah, no, that never happened." Seeley said and laughed. "Nice try, Sarah." He looked at me and closed my locker. "Come on, let's go."

Sarah didn't bother us for the rest of the day, even in advanced science, TD made sure I didn't fall and even walked me out to the car and waited with me until Seeley came out from his practice. He greeted us with a smile even if the coach had told him to just sit on the bench and watch the rest of the team. He still wanted to be in the team and help them win, because that is what a good captain does.

When we got home just as Jared came running into the house. "Sel, Sel, please, can you come out and help me? It's really important" Seeley sighed and looked at me.

"You stay down here until I get back." He pointed towards me and I stuck out my tongue.

"I can go up on my own okay?" I jabbed back and laughed.

"Stay put." He said and walked after Jared. I scoffed and watched them walk out before I stood up and jumped to the stairs.

"Hm, How do I get them up too?" I whispered. I put them beside the stairs. "I don't need them." I said and grabbed the railing. I took a deep breath and jumped up to the first step. "Hm, that was easy" I murmured and smiled. I jumped up to the next one and wobbled a little. "Woah.." I held on tight to the railing.

I heard something behind me as I did the next jump. I didn't jump far enough and landed on the far edge of the step and fell backwards. I closed my eyes before impact. It never came, instead I fell into someones arms.

"You okay there, Princess?" George chuckled behind me.

"Yeah, I- I thought that the step was smaller.." I said quietly. He picked me and the crutches up and walked us upstairs. He gently put me down on the bed and laid the crutches beside it. "Thank you.." I said shyly. "I thought I could do it.."

"I won't tell him if you don't" He whispered and winked. I smiled and nodded. "I'll go down and get you something to drink and I'll let Seeley grab your bag" He chuckled and walked downstairs.

"Iced tea please" I called after him.

"I got it, princess" He called back and laughed.

"Dad, where is she?" I heard as he got downstairs. I giggled and made myself comfortable in my bed. "Sherlock, I told you stay put" I heard him call after me as he ran upstairs.
