"I need to see him! I'm his medical proxy how can you say no to me!" Brennan shouted on top of her lungs.
"Sorry but the visiting hours are over and Agent Booth needs to rest." The nurse said. This nurse had been warned about the partners. She knew that Brennan would not leave without meeting her partner but the nurse had a whole night ahead.
The nurse saw Brennan pull out her cell phone and dial someone.
"Name?" Brennan asked the nurse.
"Jackline" the nurse said.
After Brennan spoke for sometime into the phone she came and handed the phone to Jackline.
"Hello?" Jackline said and her eyes popped out with shock.
"Yes sir," she spoke,"of course sir."
She handed Brennan back the phone.
"Dr. Brennan please follow me" Jackline said with a smile.
oooo oooo ooooooo
Booth opened his eyes. His head was spinning. He wondered where he was. Then he recalled what had happened.
He tried to sit up but was immobilized by a hand on his hand. He moved his eyes to see something which made him want to cry.
Next to his bed Brennan was sitting on a chair, her hand in his and her head resting on his hand. As if she went to sleep planting a kiss on his hand.
Booth was touched by her concern. He placed his free hand on her head and caressed it. He continued his ministrations for sometime.
Brennan felt a loving touch on her head. She knew it was the touch of the man she loved.
She moved her head to see his face. His eyes.
Booth saw Brennan turn her head to see him. Her head still on his hand. They quietly stared at each other. No one said a word until Booth felt wetness on his hand.
He pulled his hand with her's in it to his mouth and kissed it.
"Bones…" Booth said.
"Don't ever do that to me again!" Brennan said in anger but she felt her eyes welling up with tears.
"Oh baby…" Booth said as he tugged her toward him on the bed.
She settled next to him in his arms and cried.
"I'm so sorry Bones… I didn't mean to hurt you." Booth said as he placed frantic kisses on her face.
She hugged him tight. She never wanted to let him go.
After sometime when they were both a bit relaxed Booth said,"Why did they put me here I cannot afford it!"
"I did Booth. It's for free. I'm a donor to the hospital. And I should get off the bed. Because we are breaking rules." Brennan said as she tried to get up but Booth pulled her back.
"No way Bones they won't kick you out if you just stay here!" Booth said.
"They might. I guess after how I behaved yesterday with the staff no one likes me. As soon as I go to inquire something they all run away from me. And the only person that would talk to me is this nurse and I'm pretty sure she hates me." Brennan said.
Booth could only imagine what the woman in his arms would have done to see him. "Aww… Bones no one can hate you! You are too good." He said and kissed her.
"Booth there is something I wanted to tell you. Brennan said out of the blue, "But I don't know if this is an appropriate time and I don't think that it would be very creative but I do feel the other factors are there." She says in thought.
"Other factors what're you talking about? Is it about a case. Or some research?" Booth asks her.
"No it's about something that you can't even think of." Brennan says with a smile.
"What?" Booth asks confused,"Do I have morning breath?" Booth says.
"I tell you that you can't even think of it and you tell me what you think of!" Brennan says bemused.
"Then what is it?" Booth asks eaten with curiosity.
Brennan twines her fingers with his. Pulls him closer. Looks him in the eye and whispers, "I love you".
Booth is still for a moment. Then Brennan hears the heart monitor beeping very loudly. She quickly moves to call the nurse but Booth pulls her back in the bed and kisses her.
"Say it again." Booth says.
And so she does say it again and again between kisses but then…
"By the way you do have a morning breath." Brennan says and laughs.
"Oh come on Bones this is our moment!" He says chuckling and pulls her in his warm embrace.
Relationships don't last because they are destined to last.
They last because two people, two brave people made a choice…
To keep it, to fight for it, work for it and to love it.
