AN: This is the first multi-chapter fic I wrote. But for several reasons it didn't get posted until now. It might not be as good as my other stuff, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.
Brennan turned over again, trying to get comfortable, but sleep just wouldn't come. She looked at the clock; it was almost 2AM. How did this happen? I can't feel this way about him. I can't even remember what we were arguing about anymore, only the searing look he gave me when I ordered him to leave. I felt like he was seeing all the way into my soul.
She shifted again, fluffing her pillow and willing herself to sleep. But her mind was still racing. I can't believe I didn't notice that he made it through the last of my walls. I wonder how long I've been in love with him. What I am going to do now? And suddenly she realized that it was all his fault. Her frustration from their fight earlier in the evening came flooding back, magnified by the epiphany that her protective walls had been breached. With one look, he had stripped away her self-delusion about the nature of their relationship. Her smoldering frustration blazed into full-blown anger.
Brennan wasn't going to get any sleep tonight. She got out of bed and yanked on jeans and a tank top. She grabbed her keys and purse and slammed the door as she headed for the car. Almost without thinking she drove to his apartment. She stomped up the stairs and started pounding on his door.
