Secrets of the Moon
Summary: On the night of the last full moon in February Bones visits Booth with a cryptic explanation
Disclaimer: I don't own Bones wish I did though.
A.N: This will be a crossover fic with a TV show that some of you probably won't know. I don't want to reveal what show yet though. I got this idea while I was listening to Sanctuary by Utada Hikaru. It's an awesome song. Anyway here we go!
Booth was sitting in his apartment alone on a chilly night in February. There was a beautiful full moon outside, the last one of the month, and the night was clear with the stars shining brightly. It was very late but he couldn't sleep. He had a sense of foreboding, like something was going to happen. Something important and soon. He just didn't know how soon though.
A knock on the door startled him out of his thoughts. He opened it to reveal his partner of almost four years Bones. But for the first time in a long time he couldn't read her expression. "Hey Bones. What brings you to my humble abode at 1 at night?" She looked startled at that. An expression he could read. "It's that late? I'm sorry Booth I didn't realize. I didn't wake you did I?" He shot a charm smile at her and she gave him a small smile back as he led her to his couch. "No Bones it's okay. What's up?" She sighed "I have to leave for a while. Some old friends of mine just called and I have to go see them. There's a little girl with them and they said something's wrong with her they just don't know what. She's extremely important to me and I need to make sure she's okay." "Why now? Why haven't you mentioned them before or the girl if they are as important as you say?" "It's complicated Booth, so very complicated. There was just never a good time to bring them up." He had more questions but he knew better than to push her for details that she obviously wasn't ready to give him. "How long will you be gone?" he asked thinking of how he hated when she had to be away from him or he from her. Those two weeks that he was dead were torture for him. "I don't know. Hopefully it won't be longer than a week but it's hard to say. I'll try to call as often as possible but I will defiantly call as soon as I get there." "You promise?" "I promise. Do you think you cover for me at the Jeffersonian?" "Yeah. I'm gonna miss you Bones." "I'll miss you too Booth." She paused looking like she was debating on whether or not to ask him something. "What is it?" "I know it's silly but can I have a guy hug before I go?" "No..." Her face fell. "But you can have a real hug." She smiled as he engulfed her in his arms, holding her tight to his chest. She laid her head on his shoulder and placed her hand lightly over where the bullet meant for her had hit him. "I never did tell you thank you for saving me, even if it was stupid for you to jump in front of that bullet." "It wasn't stupid because it saved you. If we had to redo that night all over again I would jump in front of that bullet every single time." "I did cry you know? But nobody was around when I did. And know I really have to go or I'm never going to get there." She had pulled out of his arms and was at the door before he had fully realized what she said. "Bye Booth." And with that she was gone.
So what do you think? Should I continue or scrap it? Review please
