AN: First of all, I LOVE YOU. Thank you to everyone who reviewed, alerted, favorite, and read! (over 450 hits!!!) Next, it's snowing and my classes are cancelled. AND it's supposed to keep snowing! I know everyone's all cranky about the snow storm/blizzard, but I love it! Lastly, here's Bones' ten things. Sorry for the wait. I have more trouble writing for Brennan than I do Booth.

Chapter2. [Bones' Ten Things]

Sweets,

Like I said to you and Booth today, I don't see the point in doing this. It must be of some psychological value to you. That has no value to me, of course, but I see no harm in giving you ten things that I'd like to say to Booth. I don't really know what kinds of things you want, but I'm guessing it's just anything we tend to keep out of our working relationship. Really, though, the only thing Booth tends to not want to talk about is our separate love lives. Sex makes him uncomfortable.

1. I'd tell him that I've been realizing he's smarter than he lets on. Angela explained it to me one day, that he lets me have the book smarts to make me feel good… I wish he wouldn't do that. I don't want him to sacrifice anything for me. Although I do think I see the reasoning behind it, if he already knows something that I'm trying to explain to him, he should speak up and let me know that! I don't try to tell him about things to make him feel bad about himself. I would never do that. I just know he likes to have all the facts about a case. I would never want him to feel ill-informed.

2. I'd tell him that I think he looks good when he dresses casually. Like when it's just us eating Thai food… he looks good and relaxed.

3. After five years, I'm glad he still calls me Bones.

4. When he tells me that he thinks I'm special, I truly want to believe it.

5. I trust Booth more than I've ever trusted anyone.

6. I hate when Booth is so hard on himself. Especially when he has to kill someone. I know it's not an easy thing, and it shouldn't be. Taking a life should never be easy, but when it's necessary for the safety of him or me or a potential victim, he shouldn't beat himself up over it.

7. This isn't necessarily something I'd tell Booth, but it is something about him that I feel is appropriate for this list. When the Gravedigger kidnapped him, I have never been more afraid in my life. The thought of losing him took my breath away.

8. Consequently, when he stepped on that helicopter seconds before the ship exploded, I have never felt more relieved.

9. Booth has made me question a lot of things that I've held as fact for a very long time. Especially concerning the idea of love. I still don't know what my final opinions are on it, but if he would like to explain it to me more, I would be very interested to learn.

10. Sometimes I wonder about my feelings for Booth. Like I said, I trust him implicitly… which isn't rational, or logical, but I find that my faith in him goes on without faltering. He is my best friend in every sense of the term, and the person I turn to when I'm scared or unsure. I don't know what those things imply. I feel very conflicted about this.

-Brennan

Sweets stared at each of the emails for hours. He was thrilled that they'd taken his request seriously, and now was slightly unsure of what to do. He wouldn't break the promises he made, but he felt it was his responsibility to explore these things with each of them…separately. He imagined that Brennan would be much more apt to do this than Booth. Oooh, boy.

AN: Ugh. I am not happy with this. I'm terrible at writing Brennan! Anyyyway, I hope you guys liked it, & I promise the next two chapters will be better :) yay for Booth/Sweets bickering!! I hope you are all enjoying this.

Thanks for your support!
