So this is my first Fanfic so please go easy on me :) I just had this idea a decided to write it. I hope everyone likes it and feel free to review :)

Maybe I'll get lucky

I love him. It's true. I can finally admit it to myself. He's not the only one that knew right from the beginning because I did too. I felt it, I truly did, but I was scared. I still am scared. I love him too much to lose him. So I said no, that I can't change, I don't know how, but I do because I have. I have changed. I know it broke his heart. Don't you think it broke mine too? Because it did! I felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest. I'm not a cold heartless fish like people think I am. I can't look at them anymore. It makes me sick. I'm happy that he's happy aren't I? No, no I'm not. Angela was right. She's always right. I wish I could tell her now, but I don't think I'll make it out of this one. Sure Booth is here, my knight in shining FBI standard Issue body armor, but I know who he will choose. Her. Hannah. I want him to choose her. No that's a lie. I want him! I need him! But I can't have him. I'll never have him. So I stand here next to Hannah in this abandoned building. I was waiting for something to happen to us. The sniper has his gun pointed at Hannah and myself. Booth won't make a move yet. Not unless the shooter is distracted. His eyes are focused and burning looking at us. Booths eyes are on the killer's. He speaks.

"Dr. Temperance Brennan, how does it feel knowing that Booth has moved on? I hear it only took seven months."

Silence.

"I would answer Dr. Brennan or I will shoot you now." He gives a sickening smile.

'Go ahead', I think, 'no one will miss me.'

Uh! Why am I so depressed! Of course people will miss me. All my friends, my father and Russ they love me, they will miss me. So I answer the murderer.

"I feel nothing," I say strongly, because I really have started to feel numb.

"You liar," He sneers, "Now tell the truth sweetheart. Tell him how much you have cried over him, tell him how much you want him, and tell him how much you love him!" His last words came out like daggers.

"No I don't," I say defiantly.

"Oh Dr. Brennan I know the truth, stop hiding your feelings. If you play nice everyone will go home safe and sound." He gives another crooked smile "Now my dear, I ask if you love HIM?" His voice boomed.

I know he's lying. He kidnapped me and Hannah for a reason, to hurt Booth. One of us will die here. I know it. I'll answer him; play his game, maybe Booth will get a shot, maybe I'll get lucky.

"Yes" I answer timidly.

"What was that Dr.? Speak up, I can't hear you!"

"YES! I LOVE HIM!" I screamed, hot tears springing to my eyes as I look to Booth. He didn't move his face stayed the same; he was focused and ready to kill.

"Good girl…now are you in pain?"

"Every day, it hurts to breath," I cried.

"Yes I know." He was smiling a horrible sadistic smile. "For being such a good sport, I tell you what, I'm gonna fix your problem."

It was like everything was in slow motion. The sniper moved his gun, the aim had changed, I moved with it, and two shots rang out. My body reacted without my mind as I moved to the side pushing Hannah down to the floor. She hit the floor with a thud as a sharp pain started to spread through the right side of my chest. I moved my hand to the spot. I felt the blood. I collapsed to the floor. My chest was tightening, I couldn't breathe. I watched the darkness close in on me. I closed my eyes and let go. Booth was my last thought as everything went numb.

Death is nothing like I expected. It was like I was sinking deep into the ocean, the pressure squeezing the air out of my lungs. Then as soon as it began I was pulled from the depths and was standing in the dark. A bright light was in the distance. I walked forward, there was someone standing there. I smiled and began to run, but the distanced shortened. Within seconds I was standing in front of my mother. The woman that had abandoned me, but I was not mad or in disbelief. I felt warm, happy, and loved. She took my hands and with a soft voice broke the silence.

"Tempe, I'm so proud of you and what you have done with your life, but you still have more to give to the world and to the people that love you. Now go back, they need you. "She smiled and wrapped her arms around me and whispered "I love you, don't for a second doubt that anyone loves you. They all love you. Love is not just chemical reactions in the brain Tempe, love is real." She pulled away a warm smile still on her face. I believed her. "Good bye sweetheart, I'll see you again someday."

Just like that she was gone and I was standing in the dark again, then sinking in the ocean, and finally numb. The numbness subsided and I felt cold and the pain was back. My chest was burning! I heard beeping and felt tubes sticking out of my body. I am in the hospital, alive. A warm hand was gently holding mine. I opened my eyes to see who it was. Booth, I smiled. His chocolate brown eyes were staring brightly in my pained blue ones. He smiled. In that moment I saw hope. Hope that one day we will be together for 30, 40 or 50 years. Hope that one day he will forgive me for breaking his heart. I believe in love now. Maybe, just maybe I'll get lucky.
