Hi everybody again,
Here is the nineth chapter of my story. I hope you like it. This is longer than the others, but I had to explain a lot of things in this one...
Disclaimer: as always, Bones is not mine…
CONCLUSIONS
Booth was in an Emergencies box and Brennan was in the adjoining one. They have two agents in each door. The doctors were making sure that both partners were undergoing the appropriated treatment. Agent Miller, the one that had been talking to Booth before, was waiting outside Booth's box for the nurses to finish the bandage in his arm. It was just a superficial wound, unimportant. Then he entered hesitantly.
"Agent Booth?" He said, knocking the door.
"Yes, come in! Have you found agent Harmon?"
"Yes, we found him and fortunately he was still alive, and the doctors are trying to stabilize him right now."
"Oh, thank God!" Booth said in relief.
"He was in a storage room, unconscious, and his pulse and breathe rate were slow, but he was alive." The agent explained.
"What about the man who has tried to abduct my partner? Have you caught him?" Booth asked.
"Not yet, the agents that were chasing him have said that he had vanished in the stairs… he had gone downstairs some floors down, and then he just disappeared. They had searched every room in the floor they suspected he could be, but they have found nothing. We're sure that he's still in the building, so the team is going to search him in every hole of the hospital. We're going to find him. He can't go out of here."
"Ok." Booth said disappointed. "Oh, we have tried to contact agent Perotta, but we couldn't. Could you try to get hold of her, please?"
"Sure. She is agent Harmon's partner, right?"
"Yes, and the one in charge of this case. She should be here. I don't know why she wasn't answering her phone."
"Don't worry, agent Booth. We'll contact her. I'll keep you informed."
"Thanks." Booth said as the agent left. Then, he got out of the bed and went to Brennan's box. The nurses were still with her, checking her vital signs. He waited for them to finish and then entered the room.
"Hey" He said.
"Hey" She answered.
"How do you feel?" He asked softly.
"I'm perfectly fine right now. They have given me a stimulant to counteract the effects of the tranquilizers."
"Yes, dopamine. You told me earlier. I suppose they have given me the same, because I'm bright and breezy right now!" He said smiling a little. But he turned serious the next second. "Agent Miller has just told me that they have found agent Harmon in a storage room. He was still alive. The doctors are with him right now, they're trying to stabilize him." He said.
"Do they know what that…" she didn't name him "...has given to him?"
"Yes, they know." They both remained silent for a few seconds and then Brennan spoke again.
"Have the agents arrested him?" She said knowing the answer.
"Not yet. But he can't go out of the hospital. The team is searching the building right now. Sooner or later they'll find him. Don't worry." He tried to sound convincing.
"I know him, Booth." She said with concern.
"Do you know him? Really?" He asked impatiently.
"His face seemed familiar to me, but I can't remember where I've seen him before. And besides, my visual perception was reduced because of the tranquilizers. I know I've met him before, but I'm not able to remember where or when."
"Don't despair. Maybe he's just someone that someone else has introduced you in some social event. It's impossible to remember every person we meet in our lives, Bones."
"I know, but… it annoys me, not be able to remember him!"
"It's ok, Bones. Don't worry. The FBI is going to catch him, and you'll know everything you want about him." He sat on the left side of her bed, with his right leg on it and the left one on the floor. This way he could look at her. "Bones, do you want to talk about what has happened?" He asked in low voice.
"There's nothing to talk about. That bastard had tried to kill you and to kidnap me, but he couldn't. That's all."
"Bo… Temperance…" he said, holding her hand once again. But she interrupted him.
"No! I'm ok, Booth! I'm not afraid of him." She said, but he knew her better. Besides, she was shaking a little, enough to make Booth be aware of the truth.
"Bones, maybe you can fool someone else, but I'm a sharp cookie!"
"You're what? a cookie?" She said confused. "I don't know what that means, and anyway, what have cookies to do with this?" Booth looked at her amused.
"No, Bones. It means that you can't lie to me. I know you, remember? It's ok to be afraid of him. I'm afraid of him too, because he has demonstrated he's capable of almost everything to get what he wants, and what he wants turns out to be you. And he's very intelligent too." He saw her annoyed face. "I'm sure not as intelligent as you, of course." She smiled at him and waited a few seconds to speak again. "I'm glad I make you smile…" He said smiling too. He remained looking at her deep eyes for a moment, letting to get himself lost on them for a while. But more thrilling was that she was aware of it, and let him do it because she couldn't help to do exactly the same, and kept staring at his brown eyes. He couldn't help to feel a wave of feelings crushing on him. One moment passed, then two. She was used to hide her emotions, but it was getting harder and harder to do it now, and finally she looked away, bowing her head a little. He hadn't released her hand and felt it shake slightly in his own. He thought he saw a glimpse of something that he rarely had seen in her eyes and wasn't sure what it was, and felt the need to scan her them again. Softly, he put his hand under her chin and made her raise her head and look at him again. She noticed something different in Booth's eyes too, something that she couldn't identify, something that scared her in some way, though she couldn't do anything to stop it. Her cheeks flushed and in that exact moment a knocks on the door broke the spell.
"Agent Booth, Dr. Brennan?" She slipped her hand away from his.
"Yes, agent Miller?" Said Booth, hiding the disappointing in his voice.
"We have found agent Perotta."
"Where is she?" Booth asked, standing up.
"She was at your place with a forensic team when she received a call from the headquarters. Someone had called her there to notify that there was another body with some kind of message for her, in a building close to yours. She went there with another agent, since his partner was here. They headed to the underground parking of that building and entered in a room. They found no body, but the door closed behind them, leaving them trapped in the room, with no way of communication with the outside. They couldn't open the door from the inside, because it had an automatic lock, and it seemed that the phones didn't work in there. They have been free five minutes ago. I don't know anything more, but she's coming here, so she'll be able to explain every detail to you."
"So, she doesn't know anything about his partner yet?" Brennan asked.
"I don't know, Dr. Brennan. I haven't talked to her. This information came from the headquarters, so it's possible that they have told her something about what has happened here tonight. But as I said, I'm not sure." The agent answered.
"Ok. Thanks again, agent Miller. Please, call me as soon as she arrives here." Booth asked.
"Ok, sir." And he left.
"I don't like this. I don't like it at all!" Booth said, shaking his head.
"What are you talking about?" Brennan asked.
"I don't like the way things are going. I have a feeling that that bastard had everything planned, even to get Perotta out of the way. And I don't like the fact that the agents haven't found him yet."
"Booth, I'm sure they are doing everything they can to catch him." But he wasn't paying any attention.
"Wait!" He said, and suddenly, he went out of the room a looked at the ceiling. Then he came to the room again.
"Call Angela. Maybe we can identify him through the surveillance cameras of the hospital. I'll ask agent Miller to send the images to her." He said, impatiently.
"Ok, but it's nearly five o'clock in the morning. She sure won't be glad with the idea of get off from the bed so early."
"Don't worry. As soon as you tell her what has happened tonight she'll be here in a hurry. I'll tell Miller to let her come in." He said, and was right. Brennan called Angela, and she told her that she would be at the hospital in less than ten minutes, and hung up before she could protest.
Booth left the room to talk to agent Miller and asked him to get and send every security record from the last week since now, to the Jeffersonian.
Meanwhile, Brennan was in her room, thinking about that strange moment with Booth. What would have happened if agent Miller hadn't knocked to the door in that exact moment? She wasn't sure. But what scared her the most was that she'd have done nothing to stop him, if he had tried to do something. That look of him had shut her brain off. She couldn't think rationally in that moment, but now yes, she could. What the hell was happening to Booth? He hadn't been the same since he had woken from the coma. She had caught him staring at her where he thought nobody was seeing him, and he was a lot more overprotective than ever. Maybe this has something to do with that dream he had while he was in the coma... Yes, it could be, she thought. He had woken up saying strange things about them being married, and he was mixing the dream and the reality. And then everything clicked in her head, and the new whole vision overwhelmed her so much, and she didn't know how to react.
Angela stormed in the room in that moment.
"Sweetie!!!! Are you ok?" She said, coming close the bed in a second.
"Hi Ange. Yes, I'm absolutely fine, don't worry." Brennan answered trying to sound calm.
"Of course I'm worried! Look at you! You're in a hospital!" Angela said.
"I already know that, Ange! I've called you from here. But really, I'm fine." Angela was very used to this kind of answers coming from her, so she simply ignored it.
"You are going to tell me everything that has happened here, right now, ok?" Angela said firmly, and Brennan explained everything about the killer calls, agent Harmon, how that maniac had tried to abduct her and kill Booth, the syringe, how she had put herself in the line of fire… everything, except for the last part in the box with Booth. She thought this wasn't the right moment to talk about it.
"You two are going to be the death of me! Couldn't you stop of getting in troubles for a while?" She said angrily, but kindly at the same time. "Well, this trouble specifically is not your fault, I know, but even so!" In that moment Booth came back.
"Good morning, Angela." He said.
"Good morning to you too..." She answered. "Bren was explaining to me what has happened here, and I'm going to head to the lab as soon as the hospital gives me the videos."
"You won't have to wait too long, I hope. Agent Miller is talking to the security staff to get all the dvds and bring them to you."
"That will be perfect." Said Angela. "When will you two go out of here?"
"As soon as the doctor let Bones leave. I'm free to go wherever I want."
"What? The doctors have released you?" Brennan asked incredully.
"Yes, they think it'll be better for me to stay in another place than here. Not at my place, of course, until the forensics finish to inspect it. I'm sure they'll finish in the course of day. I'll stay here until the doctors release you, and then I'm going to go with you to the lab. I suppose you want to go to the lab, right?"
"Yes, of course. I have a lot of work to do there."
"Ok then."
Agent Miller knocked again.
"Agent Booth, I have the videos."
"Hey, handsome, give it to me." Angela said, turning directly to Miller.
"Angela, you should first take a look at what has happened in the 4th floor between 3:00 and 3:30 this morning. I hope you could find an angle with a clear view of his face." Booth said.
"Yes, I've already thought about doing so. Then I'll be able to search in all the other videos for the same face, or even the same body. Maybe some other cameras have recorded him before." She said. "I'll call you as soon as I find anything, ok?" She promised.
"Agent Booth, I have bad news." Miller said.
"Spit it out."
"We have found a storage room in the lowest floor with an access to the sewers from there. The lid was closed but there was a note addressed to Dr. Brennan upon it. It was under a chair. That was why the agents didn't see it in the first reconnaissance. The agent that found it has called me as soon as he found it. He thought it was from our man, and he was right."
"What does it say?" She asked.
"You can read it yourself. Here it is." Miller gave a small white paper to her, just written on one side. It has been handwritten, and very quickly.
"To the agent that find this note: tell Dr. Brennan that I don't give up. I'll come back soon.
Thank you!
P.D.: Sorry for running away!"
"He has escaped from the hospital. That doesn't surprise me." Booth said, trying to stay calm.
"I'm afraid you're right. The agents are combing the sewers, but there's a labyrinth down there. It's nearly impossible to find him in there. He could be anywhere right now."
"Shit!" Booth said, absolutely exasperated. "He had everything planned!" He said punching the wall.
"Booth! Calm down!" Brennan told him.
"Booth, we are going to catch him, ok? I'm sure I can identify him from these videos, and then everything will be easier." Angela said, trying to calm Booth down too.
"Yes, I know! I'm sorry." He felt as he was the plaything of that bastard. "Miller, do you mind to ask for an agent to escort Miss Montenegro to the Jeffersonian, please?"
"Of course. Please, follow me." The agent said to Angela.
"Thanks, Ange. See you later at the lab." Brennan said.
"Thanks Angela." Booth said too.
"You're welcome. Booth… try to stay calmed. Ok?"
"I'll try. Thanks Ange." And she left behind Miller.
One of the agents posted at the door entered.
"Agent Booth?"
"Yes?"
"The agent posted on the main entrance of the hospital has notified us that agent Perotta has arrived. She is waiting to speak to the doctor about agent Harmon right now." He said.
"Thank you." Booth said, and the agent returned outside the room.
"Booth… Are you ok? You seem extremely pissed off, and nervous too."
"And how do you think I should be, Bones? That son of a bitch has run away from the hospital, and if that wasn't enough he has time to send you more sarcastic messages. I'm getting tired of the games of that bastard!" He said angrily. "I'm going to speak with Perotta. You, wait here until I come back, ok?"
"Booth!" But he left without listening to her. Before head to where Perotta was, he turned to the agents in front of the box.
"Don't let her get out of that box, on any account, until I come back, ok?"
"Ok, agent Booth."
He was really anxious. He entered in a waiting room where Perotta was sitting, waiting for the doctor to tell her something about her partner.
"Booth! I didn't expect to see you out of a bed so soon!" She said surprisingly.
"Hi Perotta. We have a lot to speak about."
"Yes, I know scarcely what has happened here, but I'd appreciate a good explanation." She said tiredly, and he told her everything that had happened in the hospital with the killer and what he knew about her partner. After this, Booth wanted to know what had happened to her.
"Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd walk on hot coals that you fell into a trap. Am I right?"
"I think so. I received a call from the headquarters, telling me that someone was called there asking for me. He said that there was a body in a room of the underground parking lot of the build close to yours. They also said that there was some message in the scene addressed to me, so I asked agent Ryan to go there with me. We found the room easily. It was something like a guard room, with a security lock, but it was wide open, so we entered it. The next second the two of us stepped inside, the door closed behind us. I'm sure there was some kind of movement sensor or other device that detected us and closed the door. I've seen something installed in the ceiling just outside the door when the agents had got us out. The experts are going to analyze it. We had no way to communicate with the outside, the cell phone was out of signal. We have waited almost three hours until two agents found us in there. They tried to open the door, but they couldn't. So we had to wait until the security guard came to open with his card… and that was fifteen minutes ago. When we finally got out of there the agents told me in short what has happened here, so here I am."
"I'm sorry for Harmon. He didn't deserve what has happened to him. He was just watching for us."
"Nobody deserves what that monster does to them. I can't believe he has escaped. How is that possible?" She said with incredulity.
"I'm sure he had planned everything. Let me put my mind in order. The killer attacks me at home when Bones leaves to the Jeffersonian with Harmon."
"We know something about this. Dr. Brennan called me from here. She suspected that there were hidden microphones at your place, and she was right. We found two microphones, one on your living room and another in your bedroom. He had to be in the surrounding area, watching to your place too, because he went in a few minutes after Dr. Brennan and Harmon left. He knew you'd be sleeping. The Jeffersonian asked the headquarters to investigate the package he sent there to Dr. Brennan, and the carrier told us the same as with the first one: that a teenager gave them the package and asked to deliver it not before 7 pm. But, and here is where you have to give thanks to God, the carrier delivered it at 6 pm, because he hadn't any more packages to deliver and wanted to leave early. That's why we were able to find you in time. I'm sure you'd be dead if the package had been delivered later."
"He can't control absolutely everything, although he tries hard, after all!" He said.
"Yes, thank goodness…" She said in relief. "The carrier is another dead end, because they can't contact the kid. He gave to him false data, so… nothing on this side." She said.
"We also know that he seems to know the hospital very well. We know too that he has an easy access to tranquilizers, because he always has a syringe ready to use. He has access and knowledge about technology, because he has been able to configure a security door to close and lock, and he has installed microphones in my place." He said that last statement holding back the anger. "He has to have some strong link with this hospital. Karen Lindberg worked here too. All this is too much a coincidence. Don't you think?"
"Yes, you're right. I think the best we can do right now is to take both of you out of this hospital as soon as possible. You'll be safer at the Jeffersonian. I'm going to ask for a list of the hospital employees. Maybe we can find something. But there's something not tying out. How is, that this guy comes here and let the surveillance cameras record him? I don't understand. Either it doesn't matter to him or he's not as intelligent as it seems."
"Wait until we have checked all the videos. Bones and I are going to head to the lab as soon as the doctors release her. I'll call you as soon as I have something new." Booth told her. "Call me when you have news from Harmon, ok?"
"Ok." She answered.
When he arrived to Brennan's box he found that she was up, and ready to leave. And very upset with him.
"Why have you told the agents to not let me go out of the room, Booth?" She asked with annoyance.
"It's very easy. I didn't want you to go out of the room." He simply stated.
"Booth! I wasn't going anywhere, but that demonstration of your alpha male tendencies wasn't necessary at all! What's happening to you, Booth? You're acting weird since you have woken up from the coma. I know you're worried about me, but I think you're overdoing too much." She said. He stared at her with incredulity. How could he answer honestly to that question? He couldn't, so he counterattacked the last sentence.
"Overdoing? Do you think I'm overdoing this situation? I have to remember you everything that has happened tonight? Maybe you believe yourself when you say that all that has happened tonight is as simple as a killer has tried to kill me and to kidnap you, and nothing else. But the fact is that that bastard has indeed tried to kill me twice today, abduct you to do who-knows-what to you, maybe kill you. That bastard has killed Karen Lindberg because he couldn't get you. What more do you need to happen to stop being so stubborn and let me take care of you?" He sounded as upset as he was. But his words hurt her more than he thought.
"Ok, Booth. You're right." She just said.
"Bones..." He knew he had been rude with her, and wanted to apologize, but she didn't let him.
"No, Booth. It's ok. Let's go to the lab. I have a lot of work to do there." She replied dryly.
They left the hospital in an awkward silence. They called a cab a headed to the Jeffersonian with saying no word. She was hurt and he knew it. In fact she didn't bother to hide it. She knew that he'd tell about that dream when he was ready, but she was so frustrated. Time was passing and he wasn't showing any sign indicating he was going to tell something about it to her. In fact, she thought that he was just trying to let it pass, and that made her think that he didn't trust her. But she didn't know why.
When they arrived to the lab she went directly to Angela's office, without saying anything to him. He simply watched her turn away. He was between the devil and the deep blue sea. He knew she was suspecting something, and he knew too, that he couldn't hide his feelings forever. He must do something soon, because she was going to pressure him, and she wouldn't want anything but the truth. This situation scared him because he didn't know how she was going to react if he opened himself to her. He was really confused and disturbed.
Brennan went to Angela's office and found her working on the videos.
"Hi, Angela."
"Hey, Bren! I'm glad you're here!"
"Thanks..." She answered sadly.
"Sweetie, are you ok? Has something more happened?" Angela asked with concern. "No, wait, I have very good news for you. And after that, you and I are going to go somewhere we can talk."
"Ok. What do you have?" Brennan asked.
"I've watched all the sequences of the attack. It must be terrifying. But thank God you two are safe now!" Angela said with concern.
"Yeah" Brennan whispered.
"I have some very good images of the man who attacked you and Booth. I've calculated the body mass and I'm doing a research on all the videos they have given to me. If he has been captured with another camera I'll know where and when. I've sent too a copy of his face to the FBI, so they could start to work with it."
"That's great, Angela. Show me the images, please. I know him, but I don't remember where or when I've met him before." Brennan asked.
"Ok, this is our guy." Angela opened the images on the big screen and Brennan watched at them carefully, trying to remember. But nothing came to her mind. "I have no idea where I've met this guy before!" She said annoyed. "Let me think. If I've met him before he has to have something to do with me. Maybe Sweets is right and he works at the university. But on the other hand, he can get tranquilizers very easy, and he seems to know the hospital very well, so maybe he has something to do with the hospital too." She pondered. "I'll call the university for the security videos, from the last month until today. Run the body mass test on them too. If he works at the university or has something to do with it, he should appear there too."
"That's a very good idea, Bren!" Angela said.
Brennan made the call and the head of Security promised her to send the videos as soon as he could get them.
"Ok, the test is running on the hospital videos; we're waiting the university videos to do the same; so now we have some time to go to the meeting table and have a good talk." Angela told Brennan, and then grabbed her elbow and guided her. In their way to the upper floor Brennan saw Booth on her own office, sat on her couch. She thought that they both needed to have a good talk too. But she wanted to talk to Angela first. Maybe she could enlighten her with this dilemma.
"Ok, here we are. Now, speak. I know something is bothering you, and since you haven't argued with me to have this talk, I'm sure it has something to be with Booth, right?"
"I have to explain something to you. But I want you to promise me that you are not going to be upset for not telling you before." Brennan asked.
"This is getting interesting. Don't worry. I promise you, but now, talk!" Angela insisted.
"Ok. When Booth woke up from the coma he was confused. He seemed to be mixing a dream with the reality. He asked me if we were married and if I was pregnant, and something about owning a night club called The Lab." Angela didn't say anything, but her face was more than enough for Brennan to understand she was enjoying this story more than anything. "I told him that he need to get some sleep and when he woke up later he seemed to see things right again. I didn't ask him about the dream he had, because I thought that he'd told me about it when he felt better, but he has just... I think that he is just letting time pass. I'm sure he's hoping me to forget about it. In fact I had almost forgotten it, but today it came to my mind again. When Perotta arrived to the hospital this morning he went to speak to her. But when he went out of my box he told the agents posted at the door to not let me go out of there on any account. While he was with Perotta the doctor came and after check me on, he told me that I could go. When I tried to go out of the door to go to the bathroom a second to refresh myself, the agents didn't let me, and they told me why. When he came back I asked him why he had done that, and I told him that he was acting weird since he awaked from the coma and that I thought that he was overdoing the situation. Then he just related me the facts that had happened since now, in a very rude tone. He remembered me that that psychopath had tried to kill him twice today, to kidnap me, and that he had killed Karen Lindberg just because he couldn't get me. He then asked me what more had to happen to let him take care of me. I was thinking about that dream before you arrived to the hospital, and I suspect something. But you know I'm not the best interpreting people, and I want to hear your opinion before."
"Ok, let me get this right. He has a dream while he is in coma about you two being married, you being pregnant, and you two owning a night club called The Lab. Then he just doesn't say a word about it, and when you confront him with it he turns rude. I think you could just ignore the part concerning the night club. You are good analyzing things, so let me expose things in a way you could understand." Angela said, and Brennan knew that she wasn't going to like it. "First: he dreams that you both are married and you are pregnant; second: he wakes up mixing the dream with the reality; third: he doesn't tell you what he has dreamed, and that is odd, because he always tells you everything; fourth: he gets angry when you ask him about it. Now, you have everything in order. Does it make any sense to you?" Angela asked.
"I-I'm not s-sure." Brennan replied not wanting to say what she was thinking loudly.
"Well, I'll tell you what I think. But let me finish, ok?" Angela said, and Brennan nodded in a doubtful agreement. "I think he had a very real dream, and that made his feelings for you grow intensely. Don't interrupt me!" She said watching the odd expression in Brennan's face. "Don't even try to deny it. You wanted my opinion and that's exactly what you're going to get. As I was saying, the dream made his feelings for you become even more real. I'm sure he remembers every second of that dream. That's exactly why he's avoiding to tell you about it. Come on, Bren. You cannot be that blind. In fact, I'm sure you have come to the same conclusion, but you're scared of how that could change your relationship with Booth. I'm so right that I'd eat my hat." Angela said, with a big grin on her face.
"I don't know what that means." Brennan answered afraid of saying more.
"It doesn't matter. What I'm saying is that your relationship with Booth is about to change, you want it or not. I'm sure he won't be able to fight his feelings too much more time. In fact I'm sure that he has still done or said nothing because of this big mess. Sweetie... I'm going to ask you something, and I want you to promise me that you'll answer nothing but the truth." In that moment Booth appeared there, but only Angela could see him. Brennan didn't notice him, and he let them go on with their talk, not wanting to interrupt.
"Ange..."
"Sweetie, promise me. I can't help you if you don't open to yourself. You are always demanding everyone to tell you the truth, but you are forgetting the most important person to do the same, yourself."
"I know what you're going to ask me." Brennan said.
"I'm sure you do." Angela said looking discretely to Booth. He understood her and kept quiet.
Brennan took a deep breath before answer. "Ok, Ange, as you want. I don't know the answer. You want to how I feel about Booth, and the answer is just I don't know. I'm just... confused."
"That's a step. At least you haven't told me "we're just partners" anymore. How have you felt these days? I mean, when you found him lying on his flat roof, or when you put yourself in front of the gun to save him. What did you feel in these situations?" Booth was listening carefully, and his face encouraged Angela to go on.
"When I was at his place I was sure that something had happened to him. I-I felt as if I c-couldn't breathe, and my b-brain was just off. I c-can't explain it b-better, Ange. It w-was one the worst m-moments in my l-life." She was stammering now. She was doing a big effort to be honest with Angela, but even more to be honest with herself.
"How did you feel when the Gravedigger took him?"
"W-Why are you r-remembering all these things to me, Angela? You were with m-me! You k-know it pretty g-good!" She answered angrily.
"You're reaction proofs that I'm right. You get angry when I confront you with situations that could have killed him, and I'm just remembering them."
"I hate Psychology, Ange..." Booth smiled lightly at that statement, but remained in silence.
"I know. I'm gonna tell you exactly, plain and clear, what I think about all this." Brennan bowed her head, and Angela went on. "You two" she started and looked directly to Booth "are absolutely in love with each other. And you're scared because he's starting to show his true feelings to you. Believe me, I'm right." She said turning to look at Brennan again, who was still looking at the table. "You're scared because you have detected some changes in him that tell you what's going on, but you don't know how to interpret these signs. But... I'm here to help you. For example... he has turned even more overprotective, right?"
"Yes, a lot more." Brennan
"I knew it!" Angela exclaimed. "I know you have hidden your feelings for him in the deepest of your heart, but what would you do if he knew exactly how do you feel for him?"
"Ange... I-I don't k-know. I-I..." She was speechless again.
