Chapter 6

Brennan was roused from her sleep by a harsh knock coming from the other room. She pulled on her robe over the pink satin night gown she was wearing and made her way towards the assaulting sound that had woken her from her slumber.

Pulling the door open, she halted at the sight before her. Booth stood in her door way, a look on his face she had never seen. His eyes were dark, almost black, and she could tell that passion consumed him.

He rushed in as he picked her up and forced her against the wall. His lips crashed against hers as they worked desperately to shed what few cloths they were wearing. Not a word was said but their bodies communicated in away they hadn't felt in twelve years. At that moment Booth realized what he was doing and show she was.

Booth picked her up and kicked the door closed as he carried her down the hall to the bedroom. He gently laid her down on her bed and began to make love to her; passion erupting in each of them as they breathed each other in, each wanting more.

Their final achievement was a culmination not only of the act but of the three long years they had waited and wanted each other. Booth collapsed on top of her and looked into her eyes and whispered "Sarah."

She closed her eyes and absorbed the moment. "How long have you known?"

"I didn't know till just now, but it makes sense. I have always been drawn to you Temperance."

"I didn't know till the other day. I just couldn't tell you. I was scared you didn't remember or even worse that you did and wanted to forget."

Booth rolled over as he pulled her into his embrace. "Of course I want to remember. I could never forget what we shared. I love you Temperance."

"I love you too." She smiled up at him.

"You do realize this can never happen again right?" he questioned.

"I don't understand. If we love each other why can't this happen again?" she asked with more vulnerability in her voice then she wanted.

"Because we are partners Temperance. It happened once. It was like reliving old times that we didn't even know we had. But it can't happen again or it will interfere with our work."

"No Booth. I am finally giving into this. I want this. I want you." She reached for him but he pulled away and walked towards the door, pulling on his clothing as he went.

"Sorry, but we can't." was all he said as he turned and walked out of the door.

The one man she put her trust in had just walked out on her just as everyone else she had loved.

She sat up in the bed in a cold sweat. Her entire body shivered as she struggled to catch her breath. It was just a dream Temperance, just a dream. She repeated to herself, trying to calm her emotions. But it felt so real.

Brennan pulled her knees to her chest and concentrated on her breathing as she reminded herself it was just a dream and that Booth would never do that, he would never just leave her. Her fears were too much for her to bear and now she knew more than ever that she couldn't tell him the truth. She picked up the phone and dialed the one other person she trusted.

"Hello?" Hodgins answered on the other side of the phone she held to her ear.

"I need Ange." Brennan managed to whisper between fits of shaking.

"Dr. Brennan? Are you okay?"

"I'm…fine….just get me Angela." She tried to pull herself together because she didn't want Hodgins to hear her like that.

"Okay, here she is." Hodgins handed the phone to Angela.

"Sweetie what's wrong?" Angela's voice was full of concern.

"Can you come over?" Brennan had a hard time asking this. She didn't let people see her upset but she needed someone.

"I am on my way."

Angela made record time to Brennan's apartment and opened the door with the spare key she had for emergencies. She went back to the bedroom to find Brennan curled up into a ball and still shaking.

"Oh sweetie." Angela said as she ran to Brennan's side and pulled her into a hug. "What happened?"

Brennan just shook her head and laid her head on Angela's shoulder. After about ten minutes Brennan's breathing had finally slowed and Angela leaned back to look at her friend.

"Sweetie what is wrong?"

"Booth."

"Booth did something to you?"

"No, I had a dream. I dreamed that he came over and we made love and then he said it couldn't ever happen again and he left me Ange. He left just like everyone else has."

"It was just a dream sweetie. There is nothing on this Earth that could make Booth walk out on you."

"He knew."

"What?"

"In the dream, he knew I was Sarah by just one kiss. That was all it took. Do you think he would know if we really kissed? Or do you think he already knows?"

"I knew you loved him! I don't know sweetie that was a long time ago. I think he would say something if he did though. Don't you?"

"If he wanted to, if he hoped I wouldn't remember because he didn't want to he wouldn't say anything."

"That is foolish and you and I both know it. Booth loves you and has for so long. You are just too blind to see what is right in front of you."

"You think so?"

"I know so, I know that he would never leave you and never hurt you. I know he wants you, you just have to give him a chance to show you those things too."

"But our work."

"Your work is just as important to you as it is to Booth. You have nothing to worry about. I know you can be professional at work, no matter what is going on at home. You can hide your feelings better that anyone I have never met."

"You think we could make this work if he wanted me?"

"I have no doubts, but you don't have to take my word for it. There is only one way to find out if you want to know for sure and that is to talk to him, see what he wants. This choice isn't only up to you Bren."

"That's true."

"Good, so talk to him."

"I don't know if I can."

"I have an idea. Tell me a little bit more about the time you spent together and we will go from there. I know how you can tell him without actually having to tell him."

"How?"

"Well tell me how you met or what you did and we will go from there. Do you trust me?"

"Of course, thanks Ange."

"Anytime sweetie, anytime."

Brennan told Angela how they had met in the subway. "I was scared at first but something gave her the courage to talk to him. He was so incredibly sexy, even back then." She laughed.

"We just started talking; hit it off from the beginning. Afterwards I kind of felt bad I had told him my name was Sarah but I couldn't tell him I lied. We sat on the train for three hours talking about nothing and everything before we realized that we were in New Jersey and no longer in New York. We got off the train and walked down the street."

"We even found a little café to have dinner at. The place was wonderful. The tables were huge wooden picnic tables that you could write on. The place wasn't the nicest but we found it amazing. So many people had written on the tables, so many different people had been in that exact place at a different time. We wrote our names on the table and Booth carved a heart around them. He said if he carved it into the wood then it would be there forever. The selection of food wasn't much to choose from either so we both had a hamburger and fries but even back then I found myself sealing his french-fries." She laughed at the thought of it.

"After we ate supper it was really late. We rode the subway back to New York and went for a walk in Time Square. He held my hand the whole time. I don't remember ever being that happy or that content; before or since. He bought me a rose that some man was peddling on the side of the street and we just walked. I don't think I have ever told someone so much about me before in my life. But it was easy to talk to him, just as it is now."

"He walked me to my friend's house and gave me a chased kiss good night. I wondered into her home with this goofy grin and she made me tell her the entire story. The next day he came by and picked me up. We went to see CATS and I surprisingly loved it. I was a little confused as to why grown men and women were dressed up as cats and told him it was irrational for people to do that but he assured me it was all part of the charm of the show. We even fought back then." She smiled at the memory.

"So when did you do it?" Angela asked in all sincerity.

Brennan laughed "It was later that night. We went for another walk. Of course we talked but it was also filled with those comfortably silences I have come to love when I am with Booth. Then we went back to his place. It had an amazing view of city skyline and we had a candle-lit dinner. Afterwards we danced till all hours of the night and then we made love. It was magical. I have had sex plenty of times before and after but I had never made love until Booth or since Booth."

"Well then there we go."

"What?"

"I have a plan of course." Angela gave her a mischievous smile and Brennan laughed as she worried what Angela had in mind.
