"I miss you. I think about you everyday, how things could of been different if I had just paid that damn ransom!" Booth whispered, tears falling from his eyes.
He would rather be homeless with no money and living on the street then where he was today. He would of gave all the money in the world to just see his partner again. He now understood when people said 'money can't buy happiness' - only loved ones would bring happiness.
"I never got to tell you how I really felt, after all them times I told you about not letting your emotions get bottled up inside" Booth gave a watery laugh. "I loved you, I still do and I wish I had told you that because now I regret never having done so."
Booth knew that if he had told her, that he might of changed their relationship for good. He was scared if they had declared their love then realise it wasn't working out, would they go back to how they were before ? Also, Booth was scared of hurting her - he had been one of the only few people to actually know Temperance Brennan.
"You changed me, Temperance. I was so alone before you came into my life, I didn't understand half the things I do today. If theres one thing Im thankful for - its you. You made me a better man and Im proud to call you my partner. Many people think they know you,
that they really understand you - but they don't and Im happy that I got to know you" smiled Booth.
He had been one of the first people to tear down Temperances walls. The walls she had built up to protect herself from getting hurt,
they walls that baracaded her from other people and him, Seeley Booth, had teared down those walls and helped her see the world.
He helped her understand people, he let her see that everyone didn't hurt you and leave you. Thats people gave you more happiness then pain and that she could trust him, beyond anyone that she had ever trusted.
"I've never hurt this much. I wake up and I feel pain, I go to work and I feel lonely, I go to sleep and I feel like part of me is missing.
Sometimes, I go to the diner and expect to see you there but then I realise you won't ever be there again. I know you didn't really believe in heaven and everything, but I know for a fact that the higher God will be taking care of you - afterall, he only takes the best" grinned Booth, tears falling from his eyes.
Rain began to fall from the sky. He stood up and looked at her grave. He didn't want to go, he began to get worried; what if she was cold ?
What if she got wet ? What if she was crying out for him but he couldn't hear ? The rain began to pour heavier.
"I'll be back soon. I'll never leave you" he whispered.
