A/N - This is my take on what should have happened at the end of The Parts in the Sum of the Whole. 100 episodes baby!

So Spoilers for that episode. Just a short one-shot.

Just have to say that episode almost killed me. I was watching on the internet and it cut out ten minutes before the end. I'm telling you it probably would have been better for my heart if I'd stopped watching then but nooooo I had to see the end. Stupid Me. Stupid Brain.

"J- just give us a chance, that's all I'm asking!" Booth asked her his large hands enclosing her cheeks pulling her closer to him and making sure she was looking into his eyes."No, you said it yourself: the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome!" Her voice wavered as she took a step back not sure if she was doing or saying the right thing. If she was making the right choice."Well then let's go for a different outcome here, all right? Let's just, hear me out alright? You know when you talk to older couples who, have been in love for thirty or forty or fifty years alright? It's always the guy who says "I knew." ... I knew, right from the beginning."

"Your evidence is anecdotal." Brennan said staring at the floor as her hair was swept into her eyes by the wind.

"I'm that guy. Bones, I'm that guy, I know. I'm your guy." He sounded so sure of himself of them.

What was she to do. He had always told her Heart not head. Maybe that's what she need now. But she was so scared.

"I- I am not a gambler. I'm a scientist. I can't change. I don't know how ... I don't know how." Tears streamed down her face. She so wanted it. Wanted this. Wanted him. But could she take that chance. She didn't know but he seemed to be trying his hardest to convince her. As he took her face in his hands again his eyes turned to hers determined.

"I- I don't want you to change. I fell in love with you. Your stuborness. Your thrill for the truth. All I want is you Bones. It's you Temperance. I don't care if you never want to get married or have children. Or even if it takes years for you to get there. I don't need that. I just need you in my life. As my Partner. My Best friend. Just …. Let me show you how great we could be.

Give me a month. If you still think it's a bad idea we'll go back to being just Partners.

Please Temperance."

Tears were steaming down both their faces as she looked up at him in silence thinking about all he had said. He stood their his heart bared staring into her eyes watching as she warred with herself.

He didn't need her to change if she changed then she would be different to the woman he fell in love with. As he had just said all he needed was her. Seeing the doubt in her eyes.

He took one more stab at changing her decision.

"I Love you Temperance whatever you decide I'll go with you on this."

Still getting nothing but silence Booth took his hands back turning silently and starting to walk away trying to decide the best way of putting walls around his feeling for his best friend when he felt her hand grab his.

With as much strength as she could muster she pulled him towards her swinging him around to face him. Temperance Brennan then preceded to kiss Seeley Booth with as much passion as she could muster even when she felt more emotionally drained than she had ever been.

Pulling apart for a second to take a much needed breath Temperance Brennan was able to gasp one thing before Booth continued to kiss her.

"I Love you too Seeley."
