Rating:K
Fandom(s):Bones
Pairing(s):Booth/Cam, a smudge of Booth/Brennan
Summary:Breaking up is the hardest thing to do, especially after you nearly saw your world falling apart...
Notes:A Cam POV and a Booth POV. Inspired by the song 'Tryin' to Find a Reason' by Martina McBride. Unbetaed, I take the blame for mistakes. Slight spoilers for 2x04 and 2x12. A little Angsty. Short, and simple.

Tryin' to Find A Reason


Cam POV

She wished it wouldn't come to this. She wished that it would be something she wouldn't have to face. She felt like her world has stopped turning, but she didn't want to break up.

At first it was just sex, the next thing she knew it was a relationship. Though, she knew that the relationship wasn't going to go anywhere, no matter how hard she tried.

And after everything that had happened with Howard Epps, the last thing she expected was a break up. He seemed to be hurt from everything that had happened, especially with his son, Parker.

To be honest, with the relationship, she felt like she was always standing on a bridge that's always burning, since the beginning. It was pointless.

So now, now that they're through, she felt like that she couldn't find one reason to make him stay. She knew that his heart had nothing left to give, so she braced herself for what came and accepted it the best she could...

It's hard to admit it, what we know inside,
We've tried everything, everything but goodbye,
Maybe it's just time to walk away,
If you're tryin' to find a reason, tryin' to find a reason to stay...

Booth POV

He could still feel that small pain in his stomach as he watched Parker on the marry-go-round. He was replaying the events of the past few couple of days in his mind. He felt like he had been on an emotional roller coaster. And now, he still didn't feel happy or relieved, he felt bad. Because breaking up is always the hardest thing to do after you just saw you're world almost fall apart...

He thought he did the right thing by breaking up with Cam; he didn't want to risk someone else's life because of a personal relationship. It was like he hard to learn the hard way that dating someone you work with is too risky. He didn't want to let that happen again.

It was just a release that ended up being more. Though, deep inside, he knew that it was pointless anyway. And after that had happened, he had to admit it that it was no use. He tried everything he could to make it work, but it only made him consider saying goodbye even more. They couldn't go on, and he didn't want to see something worse happen to Cam if they were still together.

He couldn't come up with one reason why he should stay, neither Cam nor himself. He doesn't know how long this pain will last; he just knows it can't go on forever...

And even as he talks about that line you can't cross with Bones, he can't even fool himself into believing what he's saying. Hell, he doubts that even Bones is buying what he's saying. Cause he knows that pretty soon he's going to make that same mistake with someone else he works with.

Okay, what do you think? Do you think I should stay away from the BC angst? Do you think I should just forget about writing ever again? I need some feedback here, please?
