Disclaimer: I don't own obviously, or this would have been on tv by now so..enjoy.

Okay, so the people that reviewed said I could do something with this sooo... here's the second chapter.

Please read&review

This is what I think Booth would somewhere along the lines of his mind would say(not even sure if that makes sense but it does to me so) Yeah it's sad but technically Brennen's dying at this moment so... This is mostly just gonna be Booth's thought the night and morning after the last chapter.

Booth sat up all night, waiting to see her. All he could think that whole time was, "It's my fault." Over and over again. He was surprised that Angela was even still talking to him, but everyone kept saying it wasn't his fault. He couldn't believe them.

He was supposed to be there to protect her. That's what partners were supposed to do, what he was supposed to do.

He waited for a nurse to take him to see her. He knew that the others were most likely going to come and see her today, but if she woke up, he was going to be there.

He sat by her bed for a couple of hours and didn't realize that someone was standing in the doorway until Max walked up next to him.

"Booth," he nodded and pulled up another chair. "Max," he stopped him, "Don't apologize Booth, this is not your fault no matter how much you think it is. You got that?" Max asked with seriousness.

"Yeah, but I couldn't live with myself if she gets any worse," Booth said sadly, "Then it would be my fault."

"I was talking to some doctors and they said they should be able to move her out of the ICU by next week or the week after. She's going to fine Booth."

He looked at the older man with sad eyes, "Then why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Max knew this was a valid question but he had no answer for the poor man sitting beside him. Booth looked at him.

"That's what I thought," Booth said sadly. The poor guy had it in his thick skull that this was his fault, thought Max. He knew that until she was ok, he wasn't going to be.

"The doctors know what they're doing Booth, really she's going to be fine." He knew that what he was saying was finally getting to the young man.

"I know your right Max but, how can you of all people not blame me. I mean really I should have been paying attention to the road instead of something that I don't even remember at this point."

"Somethings just can't be avoided, Booth. It was the other driver on the wrong side of the road, not you. Now get that through that skull of yours and we should be just fine." Max said in a voice that dared Booth to challenge him, so of course he didn't.

"Yeah, thanks for that Max but still I'm afraid it's going to be when I woke up from my coma, for a while, I didn't know who she was in a sense. What if it's worse though, she might not remember me at all."

"Of course she'll remember and maybe she'll be the one waking up thinking you guys are married. Maybe shed some light on the situation." Max said almost playfully. "She'll be fine Booth."

All of sudden they heard light moaning and then a soft, "Where am I?" Both men turned around and Brennen was opening her eyes.

Well of course I had to end it there. It was short but i just wanted something between Booth and Max just because i can.^_^

Please review, it makes me happy..[[=
