Hello, This is my first fiction, and if I get a good response, I'll continue writing it. Please be honest with me about what you think!!
Sadly I do not own Bones, or any of the charictors. Sigh, if only.
Booth woke with a start; a cold sweat blanketed his body, his heart pounding in his ears. Had that really just happened? No, it was just a dream. He sighed, that wasn't the first dream he'd had about his partner since the whole mistletoe thing, and he guessed it wouldn't be the last.
He looked at the clock. 4:39, Fan freaking tastic. Knowing that sleep would not come again, booth got up and lazily wandered into the kitchen. Looking for something to do, to eat, he started thinking about the dream. It had been better this time, nicer, sweeter. It had lasted longer, and was in her lab instead of his office. He tried to stop thinking about it, but every time he closed his eyes, he imagined what her naked body would look like in real life. Sighing, he turned on the radio in an attempt to rid his mind of her image. Oh yes, he enjoyed it, he wanted to be able to picture her, but even imagining her like that felt like a violation of her privacy. A new song started to play from the speakers.
"You and I, we've been at it so long
I still got the strongest fire
You and I, we still know how to talk
Know how to walk that wire"
Booth immediately recognized the song as "Us against the world" by Westlife and groaned. Of course, temperence's favourite song would be playing. He thought back to the day he had first heard that song. It had been a long day, a long week. They had just tied up the ends of a particularly disturbing and gruesome case that involved a serial killer who would only go after little kids. It had taken its toll on both of them, and he was glad when they had locked that son of a bitch up.
He had walked into her office that night only to find her crying softly on the couch. She didn't hear him come in at first, but when she saw him she immediately tried to hide her tears. She had gotten up and gone over to her desk, switched her stereo on, then sat down at her laptop and started typing, pretending it had never happened. Booth had gone over to her to try and comfort her; he had placed his hand on her shoulder. A small gesture, but as soon as he touched her, she turned around and hugged him, bursting into tears.
As she pulled away, "Us against the world" had begun to play over the stereo. She had told him that it was her favourite song, that her brother Russ had given her the CD her last birthday. When he left her office that night, he had been surprised to find that he missed the sound of her voice, the feeling of her warm body embraced in his.
Sometimes I feel like The world is against me
The sound of your voice, baby
That's what saves me
When we're together I feel so invincible
He looked in the fridge for something to eat, trying to think about anything other than Brennan. He finally selected a container of yogurt and sat down, starting to eat. He let his mind wander away with him. He started to imagine Brennan once again, wearing a strappy little dress and singing to him. He laughed to himself, Like that would ever happen. Almost immediately he realized that there was no way he would be able to stop thinking about her, he sighed and looked at the clock. 5:12. Perfect. This was going to be a long day.
There it is, I know its short, but I'm hoping to get the next chapter up sometime in the next couple of days. I would love to hear reviews, so go ahead and hit that little button!!
