Hey guys! Sorry for the wait. What did you guys think of that finale? I've never been so in love with an ending to a show in my life. It was a satisfying ending but left room for a possible comeback. I cried for like 2 hours after it ended. If you haven't watched it yet I suggest watching it ASAP. Anyways I'm here to continue on with my story. Here is Chapter 7


Booth parked and made his way up to his apartment. As bad as it sounds he wished that Hannah wasn't home because he didn't want to discuss anything right now; he just wanted to shower and go help at the Lab. Luck was against him though because when he opened the door he was greeted by his girlfriend,

"Seeley! Whats going on?" He hugged her quickly and went to get in the shower,

"I'm sorry Hannah, I need to shower and help with the investigation." She followed him into the bedroom,

"Well, I haven't seen you in almost two days! Maybe you can take a seat for a moment and lets talk." He stopped shuffling around the room and looked at her,

"Take a seat? I can't take a seat, Hannah. My partner was kidnapped because of me, she was held for days because of me; I need to find the son if a bitch who essentially tortured her because he has a vendetta against me. I won't rest until he is caught." He went back to getting his stuff ready. Her eyes were wide,

"Thats not healthy. You need to stop for a moment and breathe." He shook his head,

"I can't do that! I need to find him! Thats what I can do for her right now. Maybe it'll help me get her forgiveness." She looked confused,

"Forgiveness? Why would you need her forgiveness?"

"Because its my fault she was being held all weekend. We were in bed all weekend and I ignored her calls which weren't from her. Those calls were from the sick bastard trying to negotiate a ransom." She walked over to comfort him but he blew passed her trying to get his stuff together,

"You couldn't have known though-"

"No Hannah! No. I have never ignored her calls before and I shouldn't have now." She was beginning to get agitated,

"Seeley, We were spending the weekend together! We haven't spent a lot of time together since I came to DC. We needed this time. I mean come on! If you're not working with her you're talking about her! We needed this time to ourselves." He stared at her,

"Are you serious? She is my partner, my friend and apart of my family! Nothing justifies me ignoring her."

"Seeley, I am your girlfriend! We needed to spend time together without her or any of your friends. I don't want to bring this up now but your partnership is unhealthy." His eyes grew wide and she saw the anger in his eyes. She was standing her ground though,

"What are you saying, Hannah?" He knew what she was saying but he needed to hear her say it,

"I'm saying that maybe you need to take a step back from her." He began breathing heavy to try to keep his cool,

"No, you don't want me to take a step back you want me to end it completely. You essentially want me to choose between you and her." She nodded her head. "I can't believe you right now. I can't believe you want me to choose between you and my family." Hannah stomped her foot in anger,

"She is not your family! She is your partner-" He quickly cut her off; stepping closer to her in anger,

'No Hannah! She is my family. There is more than one kind of family. She is as important to me as Parker is! She is apart of my family, all of the squints are my family. Not gonna lie I thought you were my family too but my family would never make me choose between each other." Tears welled up in her eyes,

"Seeley, I can't believe you just said that-" He held up his hand,

"No. You do not get to make me feel guilty for what I said. You want me to end my partnership with someone who has saved my life in more ways than one. You want me to drop a woman who has helped me through my problems and kept up with my shit. She always stood by my side and I will not leave her because you feel threatened. I'm sorry but I won't do that."

"You know what, I can't be with a man who puts me behind his partner" He chuckled in disbelief,

"Yeah well, I can't be with a woman who makes me choose between her and my family." she gasped and wiped the tears from her eyes,

"So Thats it? We're done?" He nodded. She sighed and shook her head at him, "Okay. I'm going to get my things and be out of here in 10 minutes." He walked out of his room and sat on the couch, waiting for her. She came out of the room minutes later with her duffel bag in tow. He stood up and watched her walk to the door.

"Goodbye Seeley. I hope she's worth it." She said bitterly.

"Goodbye Hannah and believe me she is." He gave her a small smug smile. She stormed out of the apartment and out of his life. He locked the door and sighed heavily. Once he gained his composure he made his way into the shower and to the lab to help out. He arrived at the Jeffersonian within the hour; trying to push what just happened to the back of his mind right now. He walked into Angela's office and saw Agent McDuffy standing there with Sweets. Booth thinks that McDuffy is a good agent and if he wouldn't work on it then he's glad a good agent is.

"McDuffy, How are ya." Booth shakes the mans hand and gives him a small smile,

"Booth. I'm good. I'm sorry to hear about your lady scientist. I promise I'll catch the bastard with your help of course." Booth gave him a grateful smile

"I know you will. Anyways, what do ya got?" Angela pulls up a list onto the Angelatron,

"Techs dusted for prints and found nothing. No security footage; without the guards noticing he somehow remotely changed the feed so he could sneak in and take her out. There was no IP address with the private feed he set up for her to watch. This guy is good. I can't even track him."

"So Nothing? Great." Booth sighed, Sweets spoke up,

"Well, Dr. Brennan told me that the man blames you for his sons death. He apparently didn't go into detail. You said to check for departed agents who were only children?" Booth nodded and checked out the list. "We are looking for a man who has massive computer skills. Maybe suggesting military or government background." Booth nodded,

"We need a sketch from Bones. If I have a face I can most likely pick him out. There are a few names that look familiar." booth had Angela highlight several names.

"Okay, I'll take Ms. Montenegro to Dr. Brennan's house for a sketch. You two go through all of these names with a fine tooth comb." McDuffy said. Booth gave him a look,

"Wait, I should go. Bones would be more comfortable with people she knows here." Sweets cut him off,

"Agent Booth, After talking to Dr. Brennan I believe that it'll be wise that Agent McDuffy goes and conducts the official investigation. Dr. Brennan needs time. Agent McDuffy, we will stay here and call you if something comes up."

"Same to you Dr. Sweets." Both the Agent and Angela walked out of the room and on their way to Brennan. Booth turned to Sweets with anger,

"Sweets what the hell! I should be there."

"Agent Booth, Dr. Brennan needs time. You said it yourself that you betrayed her, do you think she doesn't feel that? Having you all over her with trying to make things right and handling the investigation won't help her or you."

"Well, what the hell am I supposed to do?" His voice cracked a bit,

"We go through the list, we do what we are told by the commanding officer and we solve this. For her." Booth sighed and nodded in agreement with the doctor. They sat down on Angela's couch and began to go through the list.

Meanwhile...

Agent McDuffy and Angela made their way to Brennan's apartment. They rode in silence only briefly speaking to one another,

"How far along are you?" He asked. Angela caressed her belly and smiled,

"I'm 27 weeks." McDuffy smiled,

"Congrats to you and Dr. Hodgins. I remember when my wife was pregnant with our twins. She loved every minute of it." Angela chuckled slightly,

"I love it too. I can't wait to meet my baby..." she hesitated for a moment, "Agent McDuffy, can I ask you a question?" The agent nodded, "How bad is this? The case I mean? Will Brennan be okay?" McDuffy sighed and spoke,

"Well, I don't really know Dr. Brennan so I can't say for certain if she will be okay but I can say that over time things will get better. With help and time things will be okay."

"You read her statement didn't you? You know what we did to her." The agent sighed,

"Yes, I read it as soon as Dr. Sweets sent it to me. Ms. Montenegro, Angela, this isn't your fault. It's none of your faults. You couldn't have known." Angela wiped tears from her eyes,

"I should have paid more attention to her though. She's my best friend and I just pushed her to the side. She deserves better. Oh listen to me, you don't need to hear my demons." He smiled at the artist,

"I don't mind. I've been told I'm a very good listener. Look, this is going to sound cliche but everything is going to be okay. In the end it is always okay, otherwise its not the end." Angela gave him a grateful smile and thanked him. They pulled up to the building and made their way to Brennan's apartment,

"Dr. Brennan. This is Agent McDuffy. I was wondering if I could talk to you. Maybe get a sketch going of the man who did this?" He waited for an answer and was greeted by a slow click of a lock and the door slowly opening to find the anthropologist. He gave her a small smile, "This won't take long I promise. If we can get a sketch then we can catch this guy." Brennan nodded and let the pair in. Angela smiled at her friend but didn't receive one back,

"How are you sweetie?" Brennan shrugged and spoke softly,

"I'm fine." Agent McDuffy spoke once more,

"Okay, Dr. Brennan. You're going to describe him to Ms. Montenegro and when its done we'll be able to find him." Brennan nodded and ushered them to the dining room table. She began describing him in great detail much to Agent McDuffy's surprise,

"Roughly 72 inches, 113 kilograms, blonde hair blue eyes, caucasian, high nasal ridge and promenaded jaw line..." The artist and scientist worked together to get an accurate description of her kidnapper. When the sketch was done Agent McDuffy took a picture and sent it to Sweets. Angela and Agent McDuffy began to leave when Angela turned to Brennan,

"Bren, If you want I can come back later on-" Brennan cut her off,

"Uh no thank you Angela. I plan on retiring early tonight. I need my rest." Angela nodded and said her goodbyes. Once their pair had left Brennan resumed her writing; trying to distract herself from the hurt she still felt...

Back at the Lab...

Sweets' phone chirped indicating a text message. He opened it and revealed Angela's sketch,

"Booth, Is he familiar?" He showed Booth the phone. The agent studied the picture. After a while his eyes widened,

"I know who this is."
