Chapter 2

You can guess what happens after that. I wake up and there were at least ten gallons of blood all over my dress(Though it wasn't very noticeable since it was already the same shade of a crimson red rose), and dead bodies all around me. Among them were my parents. Dead. You could see blood still dripping from their jugulars. I was angry. Looking up at the heavens I swore to myself I would avenge them. "I will avenge you." I whispered to myself, my tears washing the blood covering my face, my piercing blue eyes, filled with a deep hatred, looking as though they could cut through mountains so high they reached the sun that burned with a million flames.

There I was in my office at the Jeffersonian. I was thirsty. For BLOOD. You could tell because my eyes were turning crimson red, like the gown I wore that accursed day. My throat was dry as a bone, which was ironic because, believe it or not, my nick name is "Bones".

"Hey Bones! We have a case,"(see I told ya') this man's name is Booth. Seeley Booth. He is a direct descendent of John Wilks Booth, but don't mention that to him, he gets a little…grumpy. Booth hankered on over to my desk and leaned down to meet my eyes. I couldn't help but get mesmerized by those warm caring, chocolate brown eyes, they shone like stars in the night sky. The look he gave me made me feel as though I could fly through the room and around the moon 100 times then back down to earth to my desk again.

His eyes portrayed confusion now. "You're eyes are really red, are you alright," his senciritey warming my frost bitten, unbeating heart. I quickly slid my sunglasses down and looked away. "I don't know what that means…stop looking at me like that" I muttered, thinking oh how my deceased mother would nag if she knew how I was acting in front a young eligible gentleman. If I still had blood in my veins, my cheeks would be crimson red, like that dress I wore the day my life changed. Forever.

"So how what do you think happened with the body," Booth questioned curiously. "It's too soon to tell, you should send this all to the lab right away so hodgins can examine the particulates imbedded in the skin and bones." I sighed impatiently. Giggling to myself I threw a playful smile up at Booth, "You would think that you would have learned this by now Booth."

"Well we can't all be genius's like you Bones, come, let me help you out of that ditch." He held out his hand for me too grab, when our skin touched it was like tiny cupids were surrounding piercing us both with their magical arrows of love. Quickly I pulled my hand away from his electrifying touch. "It's okay I can get out on my own." I climbed out on my own.

We drove back to the lab in an awkward silence.

Back at the lab Angela was the first to say hello to me. Or well, "hey sweetie." she said in a playful tone.

"Anything interesting happen with Booth today?" she said even more suggestively.

"Ang… we're just partners…you know that."

"Oh please. I could see straight through your façade. Even a blind man could see that you have the hots for Booth."

At that moment, Booth strolled into Angela's office. "Who has the hots for me?" He questioned raising his brown in a perfect arch to display his curiosity.

"Brennan, duh."

"ANG!" I scream in horror.

"Come on sweetie. Someone had to tell him!"

"It's true, Sherie. Watching the two of you is like watching Ross and Rachel. We all know it's going to happen. We just want it to happen sooner!" Caroline added while leaning against the doorframe and snapping her fingers in a Z formation.

I was absolutely MORTIFIED. I looked over to Booth to gauge his reaction.

"Is this true, Bones?" he asked, his chocolate brown eyes burning into mine. He smiled his charm smile. Oh great. He knew how that smile got to me.

"Guys, you'll never guess what I just found!" Hodgins exclaimed with a megawatt grin.

He pointed to a beetle he found in his office.

"Is this pertaining to the case in any way, Dr. Hodgins?" I asked, thankful for the interruption, but feeling slightly disappointed at the same time.

"No, but I did find some particulates on the victim that you might want to see."

Taking the opportunity, I fled the room.
