I'm sorry I'm such a bad person for not updating sooner but I've been so busy. And I know everyone uses that excuse but I promise I'll start updating more regularly or you can write me a comment and complain and I'll totally understand. But now on a more important note I just got to say that I love season 4 so far.

Plans in motion

4 hours later...

Booth had gone out on his own to the suspect's brother's house to question him. When he asked Bones to come with him all she said was "that's fine Agent Booth you don't need my permission" at this all the squints stopped to stare at Brennan as she was still bent over the corpse and had not even looked at Booth. Booth dropped his head and sighed, before walking out to his car.

"Gee that was a little harsh sweetie don't you think?" said Angela breaking the silence that had formed as soon as Booth left. Brennan looked up "he can handle it Ange."

Cam who had just walked up bit her lip "are you sure about that? He looked pretty hurt" Brennan finally looked up from her work "Yeah we'll maybe that's what he needs." Cam backed off with the look that Brennan was giving her.

Sweets took this moment to pop up onto the platform "Dr. Brennan I sense that there's been some change in your relationship with Agent Booth" At this Brennan stood up and went to her office. "Good job Sweets now look at what you did" said Angela as she walked towards Brennan's office.

"If she'd just open up..." but he wasn't able to finish his sentence as Angela interrupted him "why don't you go ask Booth what her problem is before you start accusing her of not opening up enough?"

Brennan had sunk into her chair rubbing her temples in an attempt to get rid of the headache that was forming there. Closing her eyes she replayed everything in her mind. She knew that she had been harsh to him but didn't she have some right to this anger?



She let instead her mind focus on the night they had made love. He had satisfied her like no other man ever had, by touching on both her physical and mentally. He invaded her mind and her senses and she couldn't help but to bring back these memories full force.

A knock on her door shook her from her memories. She looked up in time to see Angela coming in and sit on the couch before she leaned her head back again. "Sweetie, how are you holding up?"

"Honestly I do think I can do this every day, seeing him, it hurts Ange" Angela could see her friend's turmoil and decided just then that if it was the last thing she did she would get them back together. Angela got up to rap Brennan in a hug "I know sweetie I know."

Meanwhile

Booth tried to think of some way to make their relationship right again but he couldn't think of anything as he sat in a booth at the dinner. It had taken him so long to reach her and now all that was gone.

He heard the bell on the door ring and looked up to see Sweets. He didn't say anything as he walked over to where the distressed agent sat.

"I don't really need you telling me I screwed up too" "I wasn't I just wanted to see how you were doing." Booth saw that Sweets was sincere "I messed up everything with her, our partnership, our friendship, and our relationship and there's no way she's going to forgive me now."

"I understand Booth, but you have to talk to her..." Booth interrupted him "She won't let me talk to her she just shuts me out, she'll never forgive me." "I think she will" Booth became agitated by the young physiatrist "No she won't, you don't know her like I do..." but it was Sweets turn to cut him off.

"I saw her today Booth after you left, she broke down, and she's hurting" Booth quieted at this and put his head in his hands.



"Go talk to her, she'll listen" Booth got up without another word and walked out.

"So I guess our plans are off?" said Hodgins as Angela walked back onto the platform hurting for her friend. "What? No if anything our plans are needed more than ever!" Hodgins looked at her skeptically "and just how are we going to do that?" Angel bit her lip nervously as she came up with a plan. "I'll get through to her I have to."

4 hours later

Brennan had gone home after trying desperately to work but only found that she couldn't keep her mind off of her partner.

Just as she had sat down on her couch with a glass of wine in hand there was a knock on her door. She waited for Booth to call out her name but instead the person just kept knocking.

Brennan figured that whoever it was wasn't Booth, so she got up and set the wine glass on the counter. Looking out the peep hole she suddenly was nervous, and trembling. She closed her eyes a moment before standing up and collecting her composure. She needed to be strong and put up her wall before she had to face the person.

She opened it slowly wishing that she didn't have to do this but knowing she had to face her eventually.

"Hello Rebecca"
