Alone Part 2

Ok, so I wasn't planning a second chapter, but since you all asked so nicely.

Also I know the last chapter was quite dark and sad, and some of you said that you couldn't see Brennan going to those lengths. But I think that Brennan's character is a very extreme person, she doesn't do things by halves. And for this reason, I think that if she felt depressed enough, and had consumed enough alcohol, than anything could be possible from her. Also the things she sees everyday in life is enough to push anyone over the edge.

Bit shorter than the last one, I apologise. I am meant to be revising for my GCSEs though…As I said before in one of my other fics, why aren't there GCSEs in fanfic? (Yes, I'm English!)

Booth hadn't moved from her bedside in four days. After he had found her, and pulled her out of the bath, he had called the paramedics. While in the ambulance, she was still losing blood. They said that she had lost too much. He said they should keep going.

They did, and pumped her full of more blood, and operated on her arm and lungs as they had been damaged in the bath.

Angela visited frequently, and as the wedding date loomed ever closer, she pushed it further and further back. Hodgins understood, Angela wasn't prepared to get married without her best friend there.

As anther day came to an end, and the sun set outside her hospital room, Seeley Booth set up camp in the uncomfortable chair once more, all the while holding tightly onto her limp hand.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

On the morning of the fifth day she awoke. Startled she started to panic, disorientated. This soon woke Booth up, as he turned, put his hands on either side of her face, and whispered quietly 'Bones It's ok, I'm here'

She instantly relaxed, and let the tears flow freely again.

'What are you doing here…What am I doing here?' she was confused again, but happy that he was there with her.

'Shhh, Bones, its ok, your apartment…the bath…you…' He bit back his words, not wanting to admit to himself what she had tried to do.

Then it came out unconsciously 'Why did you do it Bones?'

The tears never stopping she tried to answer him but nothing worked. She looked down at her heavily bandaged arm and remembered. She had tried to leave this earth, and failed. She couldn't even mange to do that.

'Temperance….I found you.' Now it was his turn to cry.

She looked at him, and saw the pain running through his eyes.

'You weren't meant to….Booth'

She sat up now. She was confused, why had Booth come to find her?

'Why did you?' She finished. He just stared at her.

'I was worried, and obviously had good reason', his tone was rising, he was angry now. How could he leave her?

The tears never stopped their streams down her pale face.

'Booth, you didn't want me, you have Cam and Tessa and…' She had run out of women, and could hear how stupid she sounded.

'And then there is Hodgins and Angela, and Sully' Booth shivered at the mention of the persons' name who nearly took his bones away.

'It's always been you Temperance' he sat back down in his chair, his temper cooling instantly, not wanting to hurt her anymore.

'I……I love you Temperance' he used her first name again for effect. It worked.

'I love you too…' Her words melted into nothing, as his lips shot forwards and captured hers in a kiss, soft at first, deepening when he let her in. His hand snaked round the back of her head and lost itself in her hair, not wanting to ever be removed from the jungle of auburn curls. Her wrapped round his neck, not caring about the pain her arm was causing. She was happy. He was happy.

Together they were happy, simmering in the moment. Questions were left un-answered, but neither cared, as Seeley climbed next to her on the bed, and they both fell asleep in each others arms. Content.
