Summary: Brennan's goodbye letter to Booth. Takes place in Aliens In A Spaceship.
A/N: My first Bones piece. Hopefully it's not too OOC. Got the idea while re-watching Aliens In A Spaceship. After crying my eyes out, I decided to give this idea a try. If you're a fan of my Twilight fics, don't worry I haven't left that fandom, I just couldn't write anything and needed to try something different. Anyway, please read and review.
"Anyone you want to say goodbye to?" Hodgins raised his head.
Brennan nodded slightly, the pain and fear evident in her features as he handed her the pen and paper.
Sighing, she held the pen above the paper, wondering what to write. There wasn't much space left, and they were running out of time.
"Keep it simple," Hodgins said quietly. "Write from your heart."
Her eyes met his once more before she began moving the pen across the paper:
Dear Booth,
If you are reading this, I am dead. I would be lying if I told you I wasn't terrified. As long as I have worked with the dead, I still can't accept the fact that I'm not going to make it out of here alive.
But regardless, that is all irrelevant now, especially if you're reading this. What I guess I am trying to say is, is that I have fallen in love with you.
I have used such words because there is no other word to describe the way I feel about you. Who knew a four letter word could hold so much meaning in someone's life? Well it did for me.
You, Seeley, held that meaning in my life. I hope that you will remember me.
Goodbye,
Temperance
