BB songfic. A lovely piece for ya'll to enjoy. Song by Avril Lavigne. Enjoy.
He had been pacing outside her office door for what felt like an eternity. His thoughts running at a hundred miles an hour. Thoughts of her. Thoughts of them. Thoughts of what they could be.
You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side
You know I'll take your hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No, I won't give in
'There's more than one kind of family' he had told her. He had wanted to say 'I'm your family' and so many other things that he had almost confessed to in the second when he began to lean into her. He wanted to whisper the words he had felt so strongly. The words he'd been, almost literally, dying to tell her since the day he lifted her from that hook in the warehouse.
Keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I'm here for you
I'm here for you
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
'Come on, Booth.' He chided himself. 'You've told women you loved them before. Why should this be any harder?' But it was. Because she wasn't just a woman and he didn't simply love her. She was the brilliant, amazing woman that he was in love with.
So far away
I wish you were here
Before it's too late
This could all disappear
Before the door's closed
And it comes to an end
With you by my side
I will fight and defend
I'll fight and defend, yeah, yeah
'Enough.' He thought. With his hand poised at the door ready to knock he heaved a heavy sigh. A gust of wind nearly knocked Booth backwards. The door before him opened revealing the woman he loved.
Keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I'm here for you
I'm here for you
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
They stood there, motionless. Her hand still on the doorknob, his still raised in the air. The green of her eyes held a hint of sorrow. He wanted to wash away that pain. To erase her fears and remind her where her family was.
Hear me when I say
When I say I believe.
Nothing's gonna change
Nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be
Will work out perfectly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
La da da da, la da da da
La da da da da da da da da
Booth brought his hand down gently, lifting her chin with his forefinger and thumb. A gesture that they had grown accustomed to. This time there was no resistance, no hesitation, no Dr. Zach Addy to disrupt their moment.
Keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I'm here for you
I'm here for you
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
As his hand slid across her cheek and tangled among her auburn hair, his lips lowered to hers. Her eyes fell shut as she closed the distance between them, her hands came to his chest to tug at the lapels of his suit. As he pulled away, his eyes fixed to hers. Booth could see her emotions and the question on her mind that showed with the knit of her brow.
Ahh, ahh
Keep holding on
Ahh, ahh
Keep holding on
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through
We'll make it through
We'll make it through
He put her fears to rest with four words. "We'll make it through."
Oh the fluff. This song is the absolute PERFECT BB song. No denying. I couldn't resist. And there are so many ways to do this that I just went with my gut. Hopefully I'll be able to make a video with it soon. Reviews please.
