So this is my new story. I know its depressing but its worth reading.

The italicized writing is a reflection of thoughts. Regular writing is actually happening.

Booth and his wife, Nicole, have a confrontation in which harmful things are said, secrets are revealed and sometimes the truth is too much to handle. *Booth and Brennan.* Very sad warning character death.



Nicole POV

It was a rainy day and it reflected the ambience of the room.

Seeley and I were having a heated argument about fidelity. He was being unusually distant lately and my concerns were very heightened.

The only thing I ever looked at was his eyes. They always told me the truth more so than his words.

I remember the night he proposed to me.

"I know I'm not the best guy and I know I have a lot of baggage. But if there is one thing that I can promise you, above all else I will always love you. I will stay by your side even if it gets tough. I'm in this for the long haul. So Nicole, will you do me the honour of being my wife?"

I was stunned really. Seeley and I had only been going out for 6 months and while our time has been great, he's damaged. He's still torn up because of his ex-partner who moved away last year . Well, that's what I've heard anyways from his friends at the Hoover building.

"Yes! Yes I'll marry you Seeley!" I threw caution to the wind and accepted his proposal after all, they say love grows over time.

Coming back to the present, our whole argument formed over one question I have been asking him for awhile.

I asked him to remember. That one question I had asked him forever ago. The one about his love, his commitment and how much he was willing to give.

"I don't remember just tell me already, Nicole what do you want from me!?"

"I want you to tell me what's been upsetting you lately! Why you've been so distant! Why you haven't touched me in 4 months!"

"You want the truth? You want the fucken truth? You can't handle it!" he shouted pacing the room.

"Start from the beginning. Tell me everything. Don't lie to me. Tell me the truth for once in our relationship!"

I was furiously yelling and shouting. He then replied in a low defeated voice.

"Fine. I guess I owe you that much."


Please review :)
