Chapter Two – The Birth and Death of the Day
The sunshine spills in through the window, sliding across the bed to the two bodies. One stirs, and kisses the other on the cheek.
"Morning." His deep voice grumbles, against her smooth neck.
"Morning." She mumbles back. He tugs her closer and she sighs.
"I like waking up with you, in the birth of the day."
"Hm…I like how you said that. It is the birth of the day. It starts anew when the sun rises." He murmurs, kissing her neck now.
She hums with contentment.
"I suggest we get up." She finally says. She yanks aside the covers and strides to the bathroom. He smiles after her, pleased at having birthed something so beautiful in her, a new person than she was a few years ago and every day, much like the birth of every day is different.

"I didn't see you all day." She says while getting dressed for bed. He's in the bathroom.
"I know. I missed you."
"I missed you too." She said, as he came in. He walked over and pulled her to him in a kiss.
"Bed?"
"You bet." He says, and they climb beneath the sheets. She goes to sleep away from him, but they both know she'll end up in his arms by morning.
"Goodnight, Bones."
"Goodnight Booth." She says. And even though the sun has long since faded, the death of the day has occurred again.
Alright. So I may have mentioned something about revealing the artist. But if not, I told myself I would. So, the band in which all these chapters are named for is...drumroll please...
Explosions In The Sky.
They are a seriously kick ass band from Austin, Texas. They're all instrumental, but totally awesome. You should check out all of the songs for which the chapters are named. They're my favorites by the band! Enjoy and maybe hit the little button below. Please and thank you.
