Booth and Brennan were two people who no one would ever think would separate. They were closer than most; best friends as well as good partners. Booth was an FBI agent who was loyal and honorable and always stood for what was right. Brennan, she was a forensic anthropologist who used her uncanny ability to identify bones to identify murder victims for the FBI. This was how she met Booth. When they first began to work together, they did not get along at all. Booth was an FBI agent who thought he had seen it all. He underestimated Brennan's abilities. He thought that she was your average know-it-all squint (the FBI term used to describe lab people)
Brennan saw him as your average pompous, arrogant FBI agent who thought he knew everything. They did not even think to consider the possibility of their partnership quickly progressing into friendship. As soon as they solved their first case and began to bond, they became almost inseparable. Booth had even nicknamed Brennan, Bones. She did not like the name at first but after a while, it grew on her.
That friendship grew into love and that love was great. Of course, they never admitted their love for one another because they were both scared of ruining their partnership.
The partnership which spanned for 5 years.
Today was the day that Booth has sent in his retirement notice…
Today was also the day that he was going to tell Bones.
He had made her meet him at the diner, the diner that they had spent so much of their free time at. Together.
