A/N: I was bored. Yet again. And I've got way too much end-of-term tests to even think of trying to update TGFK, I'm sorry. But drabble is good. And I seem to be into writing an increasing lot of it. Anyway, I'd love to hear what you think about this. Maybe I can get into a habit of writing more BB drabble, if you want. And yes, I know it's uber short. Sorry!
Disclaimer: In the wonderful world of dreams and fantasies, I might own Bones, although I don't even own it there. But definitely not in the real world, where it is owned by the spectacular Hart Hanson and FOX Broadcasting. (Obviously)
What would you do, if you were in love with your best friend? Your brilliantly oblivious best friend. Your witty, sharp-tongued best friend. Not to mention irritating, blunt, and even obnoxious at times. Would you just tell her? Would it be that easy?

She was the one who got him the answers. He was the one who got the killer. Together, they got the baddies. They made them pay. They were a team. A surprisingly close team, some might say. But it was just their way of coping, really. They had both realized that they were somewhat of a crutch to the other, and that the stabilization of their lives had come to depend on each other.
And that was just about when he realized what he felt. And when he realized just how tangled up in her he was. Irreparably, even. He needed her. She needed him. That was the way it was. And he couldn't change it, nor did he want to. He just wanted her to know.
"So, Bones…"
