Title: Friends Forever
Summary: Takes place after Amy Cullen dies from Cancer. The team has grown close to her, after finding out that the cancer was caused by a bone graft. Dr. Brennan, who hardly shows emotion towards specific cases, finally lets loose on this one. Will Booth and the team be able to help her cope?
There was complete silence in the room after Amy watched her homemade movie of the Louvre. Booth was watching his boss as he tried not to break down in tears, and his wife looked worse then he did. He was worried about the both of them. Booth cussed at the fact that this girl was so sick, they couldn't do anything to save her. Her eyes lit up when they told her they caught her murderer though. She was happy to hear that, and she was happy to hear that not all of the victims would die from what she would die of.
Temperance had been quiet during the whole virtual reality setup that Angela had made for Amy, and Booth could tell that this case was starting to get to her. She knew she had helped them, but at the same time, she felt like there was more they could do, maybe to save her life, Booth could read that in her eyes. He knew she hated not knowing the answers to everything.
He glanced over at Angela, who was also trying hard not to break down, and he knew that Angela was becoming close with Amy. He was worried about that as well. Booth knew that once Amy died, all of them would be affected, somehow. All he wanted to do now was go home and hug his son, tightly and never let go, but he knew Rebecca would never allow that. They had their spats lately and he hadn't gotten to see Parker much since their recent argument.
Angela took the goggles off of Amy and Amy smiled at her, "That was awesome,' she said. "It was just like being there," she said to Angela.
Temperance glanced at her friend, she was worried about her. She knew Angela had gotten close to Amy. Booth saw Temperance glance at Angela and now he was worried about the both of them.
It was quiet in the room, too quiet, Amy's parents were trying not to loose it and Booth looked at Cullens. "Sir," he cleared his throat. "Perhaps we should…give you guys, uhh…" he didn't know what to say.
"Its alright Booth," Cullen's smiled at him. "You don't know how much we appreciate this," he said.
Booth nodded at him. A few hours later, Amy was tired and they left the room to go back home or to work. Temperance was pretty sure she didn't want to go home. Angela, was looking out the window of the hospital. Temperance walked over to her. "Ange?" she asked quietly.
Angela turned and had tears in her eyes. Temperance pulled her into a hug. Booth rubbed the back of his neck. This was hard, for everyone. They had all grown close to Amy.
"I just hate that we did all this work, found the killer, and now we can't even save her life," Angela said tears in her eyes. "I wanted to give her everything she wanted to do before she dies, but I couldn't," she said looking down.
"You did Ange," Temperance said quietly. "You gave her the Louvre," she hugged her friend, "That was more then most could give her right now. It meant so much to her,"
Angela nodded and started to cry. Temperance hugged her friend. Booth stepped over and rubbed Angela's back. "Thank you for doing that Ange," he said quietly. She nodded and gave him a hug too.
