*Angela's Point of View*
"Oh my god," I said standing up after Zach left.
"Was he crying?" Booth asked his eyes wide.
"Ya," Hodgins said softly, "He was crying."
"I didn't even know Zach could cry," he said looking towards the door.
"Same here," I said tears forming in my eyes, "I have to find out what's wrong."
Running out of Zach's office I went to where the body was. Zach was hunched over the body with his shoulders shaking. I walked to him slowly and wrapped my arms around his shoulders and turned him to me. I thought that he was going to push me off, but all he did was bury his head back in my neck and started to sob.
"Do you want to go someplace else?" I asked cautiously.
I felt Zach nod his head. The only thing I could guess was that he didn't trust his voice. Pulling him away from me I grabbed his hand and walked to my office. Closing and locking the door I pulled the curtain down and sat next to Zach who was on the floor.
"What's wrong, hun?" I asked running a hand threw his hair.
"He's back," Zach whispered.
"Who's back?" I asked slightly alarmed.
"Jayden," Zach said not raising his voice.
"Babe, you have to tell me who Jayden is," I said with a sigh.
"When I was ten I met this boy who was as smart as me, but better at interacting with people," Zach started to explain, "He wanted to be a writer and he became that, but some people didn't agree with what he was writing about. They said a gay guy couldn't possibly know what it's like to be human. Jayden just shrugged them off and continued to write. He was becoming famous when they came back.
They threatened him and the people he loved. One time when he went home his house was destroyed and all of his animals were dead. He knew it was the people who were threatening him, and he knew they wouldn't stop, so he quit writing. The people didn't stop though.
His mom was killed in a drive by and he was even more scared because he knew it was because of him. When he went to the police they said that they couldn't do anything to help the faggot losers and laughed. Jayden didn't know what to do so he moved. I haven't seen him since, until today at least."
"He's Hodgins new assistant," I said calmly.
"Ya," he said nodding.
"Does he know you're here?" I asked hugging him again.
"I ran before he saw me," he said sighing, "He broke my heart because he left to save me."
"You're gay?" I asked my eyes wide.
"Ya," he said timidly.
"And you love him," I said smiling.
"Ya," he said tears falling from his eyes again.
"He loves him back," a new voice said from the door way, "And he's sorry that he left, but if he didn't leave that he would have died. He also understands if Zach doesn't forgive him."
