Sweets sighed in defeat, tossing his book behind his chair. All of his work…brought down by a technicality. Groaning, he pushed himself out of the chair and traipsed over to his desk. Leaning down he opened a blank word document on his computer and stared at the blank page for a moment before letting his head fall in frustration. Closing his laptop, he started toward the door for his coat, but a sight outside the window stopped him. Booth and Brennan were talking, standing very close. Sweets could just barely see the confused expression on Brennan's face. Suddenly, Booth took a step closer and pulled Brennan in for a kiss.
"Whoa…" Sweets breathed.
The pair seemed locked together for a second, before – of course – Brennan pushed him away. Dammit. Booth actually listened…it was just too soon. He should have known Brennan would do this. Sweets watched as Booth stepped back and Brennan joined him against the railing. They talked for another moment or so, before Brennan began to walk away, Booth just behind her. Brennan looped her arm through Booth's, and rested her head on his shoulder as they walked away.
Sweets smiled and found his way back to his laptop and opened it, the blank page still staring at him. Sitting down, he began to type:
Bones – The Heart of the Matter
URGH my heart still hurts from that premiere. Found this in the mini fanfiction archive on my laptop and wanted to post it in honor of Sweets. He was my favorite character. Hope you enjoy :)
