Booth pulled a key out of his pocket. He looked at Bones' door, he still felt that he should knock and wait for an answer - but he knew he never would get one. He stuck the key in the locked and turned it, he pushed open the door and walked inside. He closed the door, flicked on the light and looked around, the apartment hadn't been touched since Temperance had last been there. He shuffled over to the couch and threw himself down, he felt like he shouldn't be here and it seemed rude to be here while she wasn't.
Booth looked at the photograph on the table, he smiled as he picked it up. It was a picture of him and Temperance, a few weeks before she had died. Infact, it was a picture that had been snapped when they were both working on a case in Las Vegas. He smiled at the memory, even though they were trying to capture a murderer, it was still fun with Bones there.
"I miss you, Bones. God, why did you have to leave me ? Its feel like Im starting all over again, I feel all alone like I did before you came into my life! You were the one I loved, more then anything and you the one person that I wanted to hold on to. I can't live a day without you, I just miss you so damn much!" cried Booth.
Booth may have been a hard, FBI guy but he had a soft side. Loosing his partner, his friend, his whole world had had a huge impact on his life! He felt like he had nothing to hold onto, he had lost one of the few people that he lived for. He hadn't even told Parker that Bones was gone, he sighed and pulled out his phone - he had to tell him now, before he broke down completely.
"Hey,"
"Hi Rebecca, listen theres something I need to tell Parker,"
"What is it, Seeley ? Is it about Dr. Brennan's death ?" questioned Rebecca, sadly.
"How did you -"
"Know ? Because she was a famous anthropologist and a best selling author - it was all over the news!" replied Rebecca.
"Yeah, so will you please just let me tell him ?" sighed Booth sadly.
"Course you can! And Seeley, Im so sorry for your loss,"
Booth listened as he heard Rebecca telling Parker it was his Dad on the phone. Booth waited for Parker to speak first, he wondered how he could tell a five year old this.
"Daddy ?"
"Hey Bub! Listen, there's something I need to tell you," said Booth.
"Ok"
"Its very sad, so you might cry. But, Bones has gone to heaven" sighed Booth, closing his eyes.
"Where Nemo has gone ?" Nemo was Parkers pet fish when he was younger, it had died a week after he had bought it.
"Yes, Parker. Except Nemo has gone to fishy heaven, Bones has gone to people heaven" frowned Booth.
Booth suddenly heard Parker began to cry, then he heard Rebecca comforting him and telling him it was going to be Ok. Booth waited awhile, soon the sobs had quietened down and he knew that Parker had probably fell asleep.
"Im sorry, Seeley. He took it pretty bad if you could hear,"
"Yeah, its hard for him - he knew Bones,"
"She was an amazing women. Anyway, I better go now. Take care!"
The line went dead as Rebecca hung up. Booth sat back down on the couch, he dropped his hands in his head. He decided to go, if he stayed any longer then he would end up breaking down and he knew Bones would never forgive him if he did. Booth walked out of the apartment and locking the door, he put the key in his pocket and turned towards the elevator.
