I'd like to thank the people who came back for my second story in my BONES series! I said I would post very close to the AN for my first story I apologize, there was a death in my family and I didn't have time. Enjoy!
Chapter 1
Booth was on his way into the Hoover building. He was thinking about the night before. Brennan's answer had been "We should discuss reasons to tomorrow." What was that supposed to mean? Every girl Booth had ever proposed to had ended up saying no. Booth didn't want to lose Brennan, he loved her so much. He wanted to take another step forward in their relationship.
Booth had an appointment with Sweets, Brennan was supposed to come too, but she wanted to spend her day off with her daughter.
Booth walked into Sweets office and sat.
"Agent Booth. Where's Dr. Brennan?" Sweets asked.
"With Christine, listen, I scheduled the appointment, so advice is what I'm looking for Sweets."
"If you don't mind my asking, why did you schedule the appointment?"
"So, last night I asked Bones to marry me—" Booth was interrupted by Sweets.
"Agent Booth, do you remember what happened before and after your surgery for your brain tumor?"
"Yes, what does that have to do with anything?"
"You didn't have feelings for Dr. Brennan before, but after you felt like you loved her. What if that's why you asked her to marry you? After your marriage, you may stop having these feelings."
"That won't happen, Sweets."
"You can't be sure." Then, Booth started to think. What if Sweets was right? What would happen with his Brennan's relationship?
"Thanks Sweets. I should go." Booth said.
"Good bye Agent Booth." With that, Booth stood and left.
When Booth reached the parking lot, he got out his keys, got in the car and drove away.
The whole way home, he was thinking about his and Sweets conversation. Was it really his brain tumor that was making him love her? Or did he actually have feelings for her?
He arrived home not to long later. He parked the car and looked at the house. The light was on in the kitchen and he could see Brennan and Christine. Brennan was hugging the adorable baby and kissing her forehead. Booth loved the sight. Then, Brennan and Christine disappeared from the room and the light turned off.
Booth got out of the car and went in the house.
When he got in he went and sat next to Brennan. "Hi Booth." She said and gave him a peck on the lips.
"Hey Bones." He said but sounded unsure of himself.
"Christine should go to bed, come on."
They put Christine in her crib. But, to Brennan, watching Christine in her crib wasn't the same as it usually was. Booth usually had an arm around Brennan and usually smiled. Tonight, he stood, both arms to his sides, frowning.
"Let's go Booth." Brennan suggested. They both left and sat on the couch when they reached downstairs.
Booth didn't even turn the TV on to watch sports. He was too into his thoughts.
"Booth? Are you okay?" Brennan asked.
Booth got out of his thoughts and spoke. "Can we talk about last night?"
"Okay."
"Why do we have to talk about it? Why don't you just know the answer?"
"Booth, I've never been in the situation before. I need to know if being married is worth it."
"Okay."
"Why do you want to marry me, anyway Booth?"
"So many reasons, Bones. Your intelligent, extraordinary, nice, loving and beautiful."
"Beauty is a matter of opinion, Booth."
"To me."
"I need more time to think. This is something that could last forever, I need to know if it's meant to be."
"Of course. I'm going to get to bed." Booth stood and went to his room.
Something was wrong, Brennan could sense it.
How is it? REVIEW! I'd like to here your thoughts!
