disclaimer i do not own bones or anything else to do with it
Her face shone in the crystal clear moonlight that lit the room.
It was early, like 2am early, and yet she was still here. I guess she was so engaged in her work to even notice.
The dark shadows of the examining tables on the forensic platform loomed around her, the artificial plants stood tall, bones lay on the benches, but yet I could still find a million ways to call her beautiful.
There she sat at the medical desk. I wasn't quite sure what she was doing but I could see that she was frustrated. She seemed to shuffle a lot of papers around, pens rattled and I feared that she was about to scream. Lunge out at anything she could find.
But I stood in the dark corner a bit longer. Admiring her true beauty at 2am, I could stare at her for as long as I wanted to, admiring her intelligence and how far she has come since we first met with her social life and generally what she has made herself into and no one else would know, that is until I decide to emerge and hear her voice.
I would go talk to her but I couldn't think of another dam excuse on why I am here so early.
10 more minutes had passed and she had seemed to calm down. I pondered if I should confront her, just the two of us in this room, no one to save me from any awkward silence we would encounter. What would I say, what would I do. Dam I hate how she can so easily make all the guys nervous. I mean 4 years working with her and I still don't even have the nerve to tell her I truly do love her.
Ok so I'm going to go up to her, this is it I'm going to do it, but how do I go up to her, what shall I say, what shall I do. I know I will go get her a hot coffee and go up behind her kiss her on the neck, start to tell her how early it is and she should really get some sleep. Yes that's it; I'm going to do that.
Argh, no who am I kidding I can't do that, she is concentrating and if she doesn't know it's me she will properly just turn around and deck me. But then again who else would be here at this time.
Maybe I should just make a lot of noise while I approach her, that way she can't say she didn't hear me. Got to make a move here, fine that's it I will give her a coffee and ask her what she is working on this early and then offer to take her home because it is too late and she will need some rest to be able to work the case to the best of her ability.
Ok great i have the coffee; here i go wish me luck.
"Hey bones, what are you doing at this time of the night" i ask her, while approaching her on the platform.
"oh god booth you scared me, Jesus, sorry I'm just filling out the end of the reports i have here" she says, while packing everything up getting ready to leave with me, knowing i am going to drag her out for late night take out. Whoops that's right, technically it is early morning, oh well same difference
"so what were you doing at this ungodly hour of the morning?" i ask her, i am interested but i don't really know how muck i will understand.
"... and then i discovered fractures and it lead me to..." yep, life's great right now "...so there you have it, hey booth were you even listening to me"
"sure fracture patterns which lead you to something else, come on"
So as we walk out the doors of the jeffersonian at 2 am in the morning i know life cant get better, placing a long kiss to her lips i am somewhat surprised when she readily returned it, giving her one more long lingering kiss i thank her, she tries to ask what for but the only thing i can manage to reply with is to tell her that it is just for being herself and keeping me grounded during our last case.
please review
