Thanks a lot for all the reviews.
So here it is, chapter 2.
Hope you like it.
Please review =)
David's Bridal Shop
"Ah! It's beautiful on you Tempe!" Brennan, Nikki, and her other 2 bridesmaids, Natasha and Arianna, were dress shopping.
"Thanks." Brennan replied.
"Can you do me a favor?" Brennan nodded her head.
"Can you go into the other room and grab that peach dress for me?"
"Sure." She stepped down off the stool and walked into the other room.
"Why the hell is she your maid of honor? You barely know her."
"Its for Seeley. Shes his best friend."
"You sure their not nothing more?"
"Um, yeah, hes marrying me remember?"
Brennan was about to walk in when she heard a part of their conversation.
"I bet he proposed to her or something before. And she turned him down." Natasha said.
"Yea, and now their just friends, with benefits." Arianna replied.
"Will you guys please stop? This is my fiancée were talking about."
"Sorry." They said simultaneously.
"How sad though. The man she loves is marrying someone else."
"She loves him?"
"Duh! You can tell. The way she looks at him, she tells him she loves him (supposedly not meaning it,) and they kiss each other!"
"But Seeley said they were never more than friends."
"Maybe so, but theres definitely something deeper than just friendship there. You better keep an eye on him."
"I don't need to." But then Nikki looked over and saw Brennan standing there, with a guilty look on her face.
"Do I Tempe?"
Natasha and Arianna turned and looked at Brennan.
"I do love him, I am in love with him, but no, you have nothing to worry about."
"Told you Nikki."
Nikki walked over and got in Brennans face.
"Mess this up for me, and I'll beat your ass."
"I have no intention on messing anything up. I know how important you are to him, and vice versa. I've held my feelings in for years, and I can do the same for the rest of my life."
"Good." Brennan handed her the dress.
Brennans beeper went off.
"I have to go ladies. Can you help me take this dress off?"
"Sure." They all started helping her, unwillingly though.
Once Brennan got her regular clothes back on, she gathered her stuff.
"See you later?" Nikki asked.
"It's a possibility." Brennan left the bridal shop.
"I really don't like her." Arianna said.
"Me neither, do you really believe shes not going to mess things up?" Natasha replied.
"I don't know. From what Seeleys told me, she doesn't believe in marriage, or love for that matter. But who knows with her. But don't worry, I got Seeley wrapped around my finger. He'll do whatever I say without any questions. He'll listen to me, even if it's a lie, and he'll believe it too. Girls, its time for Operation Keep Temperance Away from my Man."
Angelas Office
Brennan was really upset and confused, so she headed over to Angelas office.
"Angela!" she ran in and slammed the door.
"Thanks for knocking. Whats wrong?"
"They think I'm going to try to steal Booth away."
"Who?"
"Nikki and her bridesmaids."
"Well are you?" Angela asked curiously, crossing her arms and giving Brennan the death stare.
"No! Why would I? Booth loves her and he obviously wants to be with her, and I don't want to ruin that for him."
"And why did you agree to be her maid of honor again?"
"Because its what Booth wants."
"No. What Booth wants is to see you walking down the isle wearing a white dress, hanging onto your dads arm, and standing beside him and saying "I do."
"Why would I do that?"
"Nevermind. So the only reason your putting yourself through hell is because its what Booth wants?"
"Yeah. He said she knew how important I was to him, and she wanted me to do this."
"But how can you do this, be nice to her, when your jealous as hell?"
"I compartmentalize."
"But you wish it was you, dont you?"
"Angela, he asked me to have a relationship, he told me he loved me, but I said no. So I'm just gonna have to deal with that decision forever. I have to go Angela, but thanks for your help."
Brennan got up and started to walk out of the office.
"What?! He told you he loved you! How could you say no to him?"
"Bye Angela."
"Brennan we are not done talking!"
"Yes we are, that's why I'm walking out of the room."
Angela got up and followed her.
"Why did you say no?"
"Because Angela. We are partners. We are put in high risk situations everyday. I cant loose him again."
"But your loosing him now."
"No I'm not Ange."
"Brennan. When he marries Nikki, he wont be able to spend every moment with you. He wont be able to go to the diner all the time, go to your house and drink, or do all the things you do now. He'll be commited to someone. He won't be able to just drop everything, to do something with you."
Brennan started to cry.
"Your, your right Ange."
"If you love him, which I know you do, you have to tell him, before its to late."
"But what about Nikki? He loves her."
"But he loves you more. If you tell him how you feel, he will forget who Nikki even is."
"No he wont Angela. He's not that kind of guy. He'll have to deal with that decision everyday of his life."
"Yea, but he'll get over it."
"No Ange, I cant do it. I just cant. I'm going home to take a shower and work on my book. I'll talk to you later, ok?"
"Sure. But we are not done talking about this Bren."
"Sure, sure." she said as she walked away.
"I have to get them together." Angela said to herself.
"But how?"
Thanks for reading.
