A/N: Not much to say except I will forgive anyone who chooses to hate me.

The lyrics are from Love You Forever by the Monkees.

I love you this year
I'll love you next year
And then forever
I'll always need you
I'll never leave you
I'll love you forever

"Angela!"

"Brennan!"

"Oh, I knew you and Hodgins would get back together," Brennan remarked, noticing the large baby bump Angela was sporting.

"What? Oh, no, this isn't Hodgins' baby."

"Oh, I just assumed, since it isn't physically possible for it to be Roxy's. of course, I suppose you could have gotten a sperm donor."

"Sweetie, Roxy and I broke up just after you left."

"Oh."

"I wanted to tell you, but you didn't tell me where I could reach you and you changed your cell number."

"So, when can I meet the new guy?"

"Bren, there's something you need to know."

"Or woman. I assume you're still bisexual."

"It's a guy, but-"

"What?"

Just then, Dr. Sweets approached them, wearing his signature boyish grin, although he did look older than the last time she had seen him.

"Dr. Brennan! What a nice surprise, I didn't know you were going to be in town. Long time, no see." He turned towards Angela and leaned down to talk to her stomach. "And how's my little girl doing?"

"Oh. Oh! I get it now!"

"No! No, you don't. He's the baby's godfather, not real-father."

"Well I really want to meet the guy, Ange. Maybe tonight, we could go out for dinner. Do either of you know if Booth's around?"

"Yeah, like he'd ever let his pregnant wife out of his sight."

"What?" Brennan paused, processing what Sweets had just said. "Oh. Oh. I get it now."

"Yeah," Angela admitted, making a mental note to hit Sweets for being so stupid, and also thank him for saying what she couldn't.

"Get what? I don't get it," Sweets said, not realizing his error.

"So you and Booth are married." She tried to hide her shock and disappointment, but it was obvious.

"Oh. I get it now."

Angela ignored Sweets and focused on the woman standing in front of her. She had never expected her to come back. Angela looked at Brennan, remembering how close they had been. Best friends. And now, she was standing in the way of the only thing Brennan had come back for.

"Sweetie, you have every right to hate me. "

"I don't hate you Angela. I'm happy for you."

"That is the biggest lie I have ever heard."

"Angela, why would I be angry? I left Booth. This is exactly what I wanted."

"Why don't we go in here and talk?" Angela directed Brennan to Sweets' office.

"Okay, yes, I think this is a good idea-"Sweets said, preparing for a therapy session.

"No, Lance, we really need to do this by ourselves."

"But this is my off-" Sweets was cut off by Angela slamming the door in his face.

"Really, Ange, I'm completely fine with this."

"Bren."

Brennan sat on bright red couch, not the same one she had shared with Booth during the countless hours they had spent in this room.

"How did it happen? How did you get together?"

Angela sighed, relieved that Brennan was no longer denying her feelings; worried about how she would react.

"We had both already met the loves of our lives. He was in love with you and I was in love with Hodgins. We were just two lonely people who took each other in. They say love finds you when you're most vulnerable." She paused. "We didn't expect it to happen, Bren."

"Are you still in love with Hodgins?"

"You can't fall out of love, Sweetie."

"So, you're with Booth, but you're in love with Hodgins? I don't understand."

"True love is eternal. Booth and I can't change that, and we can't change who we are. He'll always love you and I'll always love Hodgins. And Booth and I will always love each other. That's just the way it is."

"But how can you possibly know for sure that you're in love with them? How can you be positive? What facts do you have supporting that?"

"There are no facts, Sweetie. You just know."

"Why? What's makes them different from all the other people you've had feelings for?"

"Because when I'm with them, either of them, I'm almost a different person. Except I'm totally and completely myself. I know that doesn't make sense, but it's the only way to describe it."

"I love you not for who you are, but for who I am when I'm with you."

"That's beautiful."

"Some guy said it to me in L.A. He said they were the truest words ever spoken. That's how I figured out I was in love with Booth. That used to be true for us."

"It's still true. And it'll never change. You can't fall out of love."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry for something you have no control over."

"I'm a genius and I find this all very confusing."

Angela smiled and hugged her friend.

"Sweetie, none of your complex anthropology genius stuff is anywhere near as complicated as love."
