Grenade, A Bones Fanfiction
The rain was still pounding outside her bedroom window. Booth had just dropped her off after he saved her from getting hit by a car at the site of Lauren Eames' death. She told him she missed her chance, their chance. It was her way of explaining her feelings for him. And he shot her down. He said he loved Hannah and she wasn't a consolation prize. Brennan's heart was crushed. So she'd sobbed, all the way home. With Booth ignoring her from the driver's seat. No 'Bones, don't cry.' or putting his hand on hers or pulling over to cradle her in his arms. Because he had Hannah. She'd had enough. She quickly dried off, changed into some pajamas and lay down in bed with her iPod. She didn't feel like looking for a song, so she turned it to the radio. She stopped when she heard a nice r&b song.
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
No, no, no, no
Brennan quickly hit the center button on her iPod so she could tag this song to add it later. The song was called 'Grenade' by a guy named Bruno Mars. She suddenly felt a little better. Hearing that man's words brought tears to her eyes. That was exactly how Booth and she were at the moment. She got up and grabbed her laptop before settling back in the bed, leaning up against the headboard. She turned on her laptop and quickly went on Google to search for the lyrics. Brennan found them quickly and copied them onto her computer. She then went to Youtube and looked up a video of the song and copied that URL onto her computer as well. Lastly, she logged into her email and hit compose new message. She was sending this to Booth. He had to know how much this was hurting her. How she was soon going to build up her walls again; the walls Booth spent years slowly tearing down. She quickly typed a message into the space:
Booth,
You know how I feel about you. You're my best friend and I would do anything for you. You know I'm not good with feelings, but I heard this song and it explains everything. You better fix this, fix us, or you'll be breaking down my walls all over again, and it may take longer this time.
She pasted the title and artist of the song, the lyrics, and the video into the email. She then signed the email Dr. Temperance Brennan. Not Bones, not Temperance, but her official title. She took a hesitant breath before hitting send. She logged out of her email and turned off her laptop. Brennan sat her iPod down next to her bed, laid down, and fell into a restless sleep.
A/N: Obviously the song is 'Grenade' by Bruno Mars. hope you enjoyed! please review :)
