AN: Ok I know you were probably expecting another update from one of my other stories but this one was bugging me so I decided to go for it xD I hope you enjoy. SEASON 6 SPOILERS!

It's been a few days since Booth and I have been back from our trips. I had been hoping that nothing would change but of course as I knew it would things had to change. As I think back on the night we reconnected, I found myself more upset than I was happy. Booth has a new girlfriend and for some completely illogical reason I am finding myself extremely jealous. I have to admit though that while I was in Maluku, my nights were filled with many thoughts of my life back in here. I often found myself thinking of Booth and came to the conclusion that maybe I can change, or have changed and I realized that I had fallen in love with Booth.

After finding out about Hannah though, I know that I can't tell him, especially not if he's happy with her; I could never ruin that for him as I would live with sadness knowing that I destroyed his happiness for my own gain.

On our second case Hannah came and surprised him. For some reason though, Booth didn't seem as excited as I thought he would be. He seemed nervous about something, but even though I learned a lot about people and pop culture during my time away, I still don't know if I am reading him correctly and brush it aside.

Angela took me to the diner later that day and we talked about everything that was happening and what had happened while we were away. I then mentioned that Booth fell in love in Afghanistan and she said she was sorry but I didn't necessarily want to admit I knew why so I played my old act like nothing had changed. Angela though, being very perceptive noticed and made me talk about it with her. I somehow got out of it by saying that I was still jet-lagged and was going to head home. She was wary about it but let it go.

Over the next few weeks things were going pretty well but when Booth announced that he and Hannah were moving in with each other, it felt as if someone was stabbing me with a burning iron sword and when Booth asked me if I was ok I said I was fine and even though he was skeptical let it go.

Later that same week I found out that Angela had been doing recon for me on Hannah like she had done with Tessa a few years previous. I found that I wasn't angry with her like when I was with Tessa, but I guess that's because I didn't really know much about Booth back then and I didn't know how special he was or how much of my life he would change and become.

I was very supportive of their relationship through the different stages but Booth could still read me like an open book and would look at me sympathetically. Every time he did that I would feel like crying but I stayed strong and didn't show emotion. Booth knew something was wrong and I would avoid him but in a way we avoided each other.

Angela was constantly trying to make me feel better and we would have lots of girl talks throughout the day. She became my console through all of this and I found that I highly enjoy her company.

A few weeks later Booth came in looking rather distraught. I left him alone most of the day and at the end he came into my office and told me that he and Hannah had broken up. I felt my stomach do a flip: butterfly's I think that' what they're called…and that I could breathe again. I felt that I needed to ask why though and found that I expected the answer. Hannah had apparently seen how in love with each other we were and couldn't bear to be in the way of "true love". Booth tried to reason with her and say that they weren't like that but she didn't believe him. I really could have given her a hug. Booth was still a bit upset and I would be too, someone as serious as they were couldn't have broken easily. I felt sorry for him, he probably didn't think he would ever find anyone. I would give him time and then I would try to take my shot with him, but for now he needs to heal and I can give him that.

AN2: What did you think? I'm thinking of making this a collection of oneshots mainly in season 6 but if there are any requests I can do some from other seasons just let me know
