A/N: Sorry it took me so long to update… I've been super busy and un-motivated by the lack of reviews. Anyway, this is the last chapter of this, which is a happier chapter than the last, but I am a bit sad that this is over. It would make me less sad if you reviewed…
One minute ended your world, but this one is putting it back together.
He's not dead. He wasn't killed for you.
How that strikes you, now that you're not grieving for the biggest loss you can imagine. He took a bullet for you. He risked dying for you. Protected you from getting hurt. And it took all of that for you to realize what he meant to you.
But now… he's back. He was never really gone. Never really left you.
You don't have to grieve him anymore, miss him anymore. Regret not telling him things. Wonder how you will go on without him. That misery, that hopelessness, is all over.
But you do value him more now. Realize what he means to you, how much you care for him. You would like him to know that.
You've already lost him once. You know you'd never be able to handle it again.
He's been there for you so many times; it was hard to imagine his absence. To think about life without his friendship, his protection, his comfort. But now he is still here for you, to make everything all right.
Although, it is partially not all right. He wasn't dead, but he let you think he was. Does he have any idea how horrible it feels to think the person you love is dead?
How much it hurts to have the truth kept from you?
At least it hurts a lot less than thinking he was gone forever.
One minute ended your world, but this one is outing it back together.
A/N: Awww! So, that's the end of that. * sniff * What did you think of my first (of many) Bones fics? I liked it, but my opinion doesn't matter much, seeing as I wrote it. But, yours does. So, hit that lovely little review button down there and tell me! (Chris!)
