Here is another one-shot for everyone. Ok the authors note below has what i'm fairly certain are the only spoilers for season five out there so if you don't want to know skip ahead to the story. You may have heard the spoiler, or know more than I do, but i haven't seen anything in the fanfiction world to suggest that this is well known. So I thought I'd let you in on it ,if you want to know.

Spoilers for Season 5, if you don't wont to know please just read the story:
Ok so this is based on an interview i read with HH where he apologized for the last 30 seconds of the season finale and says that he wishes he could redo it because he didn't mean to convey that Booth didn't remember, rather he was just confused if she was Bones or Bren. (So those of you that guessed that were right) Anyway he say's that their relationship still changes because Booth thinks the sex was real and now they have to deal with the fact that they both want more. However he also says that we wont get any Booth and Bones sex in reality in season five either.

Ok that's possibly the longest authors note I've ever written.
I still don't own Bones. It's as simple as that. Enjoy!
Simple as that
We were in the car driving to the next interrogation bickering over the concept of the institution of marriage, the divorce rate, how to raise childern; you name it if it applied to relationships we were arguing over it. We had been since I woke up in the hospital confused as to whether she was Bones or Bren.
I had realized almost instantly that my question had hurt her, almost as quickly I realized that it was Bones. The dream had been so real that I had spent days working out what was real and what was part of that dream. Parts of it I was still struggling to separate out.
I had told her about the dream of course, not the intimated details of it but the basics. She had categorically denied every part of it. I believed her that most of it hadn't happened but the sex had felt so real that I wasn't willing to believe that I'd dreamed it. I didn't want it to be a dream I wanted that to be real.
I wanted it to be real that she knew that I loved her.
I think it was my refusal to accept this reality that had led to our almost constant bickering on the status of relationships. We weren't arguing about them in general we were arguing about them because we were trying to come to an agreement on what we could agree on. Because when we did agree on something, we had to go forward.
Right now, she was lecturing me on the scientific facts of love, the chemicals that were associated with it. Facts that I didn't care to hear. She wasn't going to change my beliefs about love in a car ride. "Bones do you really not believe in love? Do you really think that it's only a chemical reaction?"
She stopped in her tracks, her mood seemed to change instantly. She became hestiant, "Booth, love is a chemical reaction…" she paused "but I've come to believe that there is more to it now. You taught me that." She reached out and laid a hand on my arm that was closest to her on the steering wheel.
I released the steering wheel and gripped her hand with mine, "And do you think that you could love someone someday?"
She looked at me, "I think that I may already love someone." She squeezed my hand.
I looked at her, "Bones, you know I love you right?"
She paused for a moment before she smiled, "I know."
Simple as that. She knows.
I hope something like this happens in season five.
On a slightly different note does anyone else find it amusing that Fox was threatening to not re-new Bones for ages, and then not only do they re-new for one season but two and this summer they are using it as a filler for their empty time slots and playing it on their regular night. Struck me as funny.
