This is a new project I started last year before the Season Five premiere, but abandoned after a few chapters because I just wasn't feeling it.

Then I recently found the disc these letters were on, and after some tweaking and changing of timelines (the first letter was changed to reflect events in the 100th episode)

I decided to post them as a series. I intended this to be a place I can flesh out ideas that don't work into any of my current fics, and aren't really considered drabbles.

I hope you enjoy them, and I welcome any ideas or requests you might have for a letter...from Booth to Bones.

Thanks for reading! ~NatesMama

Dear Bones,

Does it seem weird for me to be writing you like this? It does to me. But like everything else in our lives, weird works for us.

I was thinking the other day about that first trip we made as partners…to Washington State. The cannibal? That was gross, I have to admit. But the best part about that trip? Getting to see you so relaxed and comfortable, dancing in that bar. Sure, I could have done without all those locals pawing you, but at the time I was seeing someone and really….we were just getting to know each other again.

Yeah, again. We hadn't spoken in a year after that first case, and the difference in our interactions was astounding to me. When we first met, I was instantly attracted to you. The second I laid eyes on you, I swear. But the universe had other plans for us, and that fight…God, Bones, I have many regrets in my life, but that fight? Right near the top of the list. Maybe…if things had worked out differently…but then again, what fun would that have been? No wasted time, sure…but how do we even know if it would have worked out? Maybe it wouldn't have…and then what, we would be just another name on each other's list of former lovers? Damn sure, we wouldn't be anything close to what we are today.

And what we are today? It's everything.

Yours always,
Booth
