"God what is wrong with me." Angela muttered starring up at the ceiling. The sheets were tangled around her body after hours of tossing and turning. She was exhausted from the lack of sleep she had gotten. She missed him and was unable sleep soundly without him next to her. Within the few months that they had started dating she had grown so used falling asleep in his arms every night. They didn't even have to say anything just the feel of his arms around her was enough. They were connected on some many levels that it amazed her sometimes. So why ruin a good thing when everything was going well. But she knew that things were getting serious they had both felt it. Telling him felt like the right thing to do. He needed to know and she had put it off long enough.
She rolled on to her side sighing softly. He had every right to mad at her, she knew that. But she never expected him to storm out like he did. She had finally gotten the courage and told him about her current marriage. She watched the pain spread across his face, she hurt him again. He didn't say anything. He just grabbed his things and left without a word.
He was the best thing had ever happen to her and now it was over. Her worst fear had become a reality. Not only had she broken his heart, again, but she pulled everyone into it. Everyone was affected by what had happened between them. She was sure that this would all blow over and they would pick up were they left off but it didn't.
He had avoided her as much as he could the last two days. He was patient and understanding guy but she had pushed him too far. He had let go of the whole 'the date was great but I don't want to date you.' He even understood on some level about her not wanting to move in with him. But waiting this long to tell him about her marriage was a mistake. Of course she was a wreck without him but she didn't let it show.
Talking to Brennan seemed to make it worse. It reminded her of all the things that she loved about Jack. She knew that Brennan was just trying to help but she could feel herself slipping deeper and deeper into depression. This was exactly the reason why she hadn't wanted to start a relationship with him. It wasn't just because he was her co worker but because she didn't want to loose the friendship they had built.
She placed a hand on her already swelling abdomen. She knew that there was no way that she could raise this child without him. Subconsciously she had known all week but finally realized that she was pregnant this morning. She had tried to pull him aside to tell him but he refused to talk to her. He couldn't even stand the sight of her and now they were having a child. How the hell I'm going to get through this? she asked herself. I can barely take care of myself, how I'm going to manage to take care of a baby without him.
She felt so empty without him, she numb inside and out. Everywhere she turned he was there. Every inch of her apartment lingered with memories of him. His dirty clothes were still sitting in the corner and his favorite book was sitting on her coffee table. She buried her face into the pillow inhaling the faint scent of him. She closed her eyes suppressing the sob building within her.
The phone sitting on her nightstand began to ring. She bolted up quickly grabbing it. "Hello" she answered without hesitation.
"Angela..." Temperance said her voice slightly cracking. Angela knew something was terribly wrong she could feel it.
"Oh god Bren" Angela cried "what happened?"
"It's...It's H-Hodgins" Brennan sobbed making Angela sallow hard. Tears were already filling her eyes as she gripped the phone tighter. "He was in a-a-a horrible accident…it...it...it doesn't look good..." Angela let the phone fall out of hand she didn't want to hear anything else.
