Disclaimer: I do not own Rent or Bones, I wish I did, but I don't.
A/N: I recommend listening to Without You from the RENT soundtrack when you read this.
Thoughts raced through Temperance Brennan's mind upon finding out her partner, Special Agent Seeley Booth, the only person she had ever let herself get close to, the only person she had ever truly loved, was dead.
'Gone. He's gone. He can't be gone. He was just here. He can't be gone. I never told him. I should have told him.'
Without you, the ground thaws, the rain falls, the grass grows.
Without you the seeds root, the flowers bloom, the children play.
This couldn't be happening.
"No," She whispered audibly,"No" she became increasingly louder,
"No,no,no,no,no" she was screaming now.Angela went across the room to comfort her now crying friend.
The stars gleam,the poets dream,the eagles fly,without you.
The earth turns,the sun burns, but I die without you
"It's okay,Bren." Angela whispered through her tears half trying to comfort her friend, half trying to comfort herself.
"NO,NO,NO,NO,NO!!" Temperance was on the ground in hysterics now.
Without you, the breeze warms, girl smiles,the cloud moves.
Without you, the tides change, the boys run, the oceans crash.
"Come on Bren, let's go home." Angela said as she pulled her friend up off of the ground. Temperance was too far gone to care what was going on around her, so she didn't fight, she just sat back and prayed it was all a dream.
The crowd roars, the days soar, the babies cry, without you.
The moon glows, the river flows, but I die, without you.
Temperance was lying down in the back of her beast friends car, letting her tears fall hopelessly .
"Gone,he's gone,he's gone"
The world revives, colors renew, but I know blue, only blue, lonely blue.
Without you.
By the time they arrived at Brennan's apartment, she seemed as lifeless as one of the skeletons she worked with except for the nearly inaudible things she was mumbling. Angela hated seeing her friend like this.
The mind churns, the heart yearns, the tears dry, without you.
Life goes on,but I'm gone, cause I die, without you.
Right as the two friends managed to get in bed, Temperance began to cry again.
"Shhhhhhh, Shhhhhh, it's okay." Angela said in a feeble attempt to comfort her.
"I loved him Ange."
Without you.
" I know, Bren, I know."
Without you.
" I loved him."
Without you.
FIN.
Not my best, I know, But I love Rent, and I just git the urge to write it.
Call me a sissy, but I actually cried writing this. Tell me how you felt in your REVIEWS.
