Standard Disclaimers


Brennan is happy.

She has a beautiful home, a wonderful career, a smart child, and a man she loves very much who loves her.

Brennan is happy.

She is happy in a way she never thought would be attainable for her. She thought she would never be able to change, to love with an open heart. She thought she was incapable of blind faith, of just knowing that someone is right without any evidence. But now she is pulling on a wedding dress, to get married, another thing she never thought she would do, and she thinks about all the dreams of the carefree girl she used to be. And how some of those improbable dreams of the young idealist she locked away when her parents suddenly left, are coming true.

She's no longer that little girl who tore the perfect wedding dress out of a magazine, but she knows now that she doesn't want to loose that little girl again. It took years for her to find that part of herself. She wasn't strong enough before, too impervious, to acknowledge that part of her even existed.

But now with her family: Christine, Angela, her dad, Cam, Hodgins, Sweets, Caroline, Russ and even the interns, behind her, and of course the man who is waiting at the Alter, Booth. Her family who will never leave her. (Again.) She thinks she just may have the strength to hang on to it, for the next thirty, forty, fifty or more years, barring no unexpected catastrophes, bullets to the head or knifes in the heart.

Because the one thing her years as Booth's partner has taught her, especially since they've become sexually acquainted, is that miracles do happen, the laws of physics can be broken. And she's looking forward to experiencing miracles everyday for the rest of her life right beside the man she loves.

Yes, Brennan is happy, and it will be recorded for the world to know.

The End.
