Title: If It's Love
Summary: How episode 100 (The Parts of the Sum in the Whole) should have ended. Well, in my opinion. BB drabble
Booth x Bones
Song: If It's Love by Train
A/N I've wanted to write a Bones fic for a while, and always assumed that my first would be a Zack fic, but the new eppy made me mad (They belong together, do you hear me Fox?!). So I fixed it! :) Some shameless BB fluff to enjoy. Please review.
"If it's love and we decide that it's forever no one else can do it better"
"I'm the gambler," Booth said, his eyes darting between Bones's eyes and her lips. She looked back at him, eyes confused. Suddenly he pressed his lips against hers. For a moment, one heart stopping moment, their lips moved in tandem.
Suddenly, Bones broke away. Her eyes glistened with tears as she looked at Booth, confusion written across her face.
"Why did you do that Booth?" she asked, a tear escaping her sapphire eyes.
"I'm the gambler," he repeated, holding her arms, keeping her from escaping.
"And I'm a scientist. What significance does that hold?" she asked.
"I'm the gambler. We need to take a chance Bones," he replied.
"On us?" she questioned, unconsciously moving closer to him.
"Yes," he breathed, close enough to count the tears on her thick eyelashes.
Her eyes stared deep into his, her brain whirling through the possibilities.
After a long pause Booth began to move backwards, disappointment palpable in the air.
"No, wait!" she exclaimed. He stopped suddenly, causing Bones to walk into him.
Her eyes darting nervously, she licked her lips and whispered, "I want to try," before pressing her lips against his.
Their world stopped spinning for seconds, hours, days, millennium before righting itself. There, in each other's arms, is where they truly belonged. They knew that now, knew that they had wasted years that they could have spent together. They knew from day one. They knew.
