I've been watching season six - when Booth tells Sweets and Hannah about Brennan's confession... this is my response in Brennan's defence... please forgive the fact that it's OOC...
Brennan marched with purpose into his office, slamming his door closed on her way up to his desk, placing the object from her hand in front of him with an expectant raise of her eyebrow.
Booth smiled nervously, "Hey, Bones, what's ah… whatchya got there?"
Her brow furrowed with offence, "It seems pretty obvious to me, Booth."
"Well, yeah, it's an egg…" he cringed as understanding dawned, remembering a conversation they'd had about confidences, "…ohhh… an egg… yeah, OK… I know why you might be upset but it's different, Bones, listen…"
Brennan's nose pricked and her eyes widened with emotion, "No, Booth, you listen. If you can make me feel guilty about me sharing a small, inconsequential childhood memory about a stupid meatloaf egg with Hacker then why am I not allowed to be upset that you told Hannah and Sweets that I'm in love with you? As if it's not enough that you can hardly stand to be in my company these days… you just have to… you just have to rub it onto my nose!"
Booth rounded the desk hands up in front of him in a surrendering gesture, "Hey, hey, hey just wait a minute, Bones. I'm not rubbing anything into your face, Sweets… well I needed advice and Hannah, Hannah is my girlfriend… you're meant to share everything with your girlfriend. It's how these things work, OK?"
She pulled back in defence, eyes brimming, "What happened to what's ours is ours. Booth? What? You're exempt from that now? My relationships aren't as important as yours?"
He bristled with the implication, "Well it was bound to happen sometime Bones, huh? You can only string a guy on for so long before something snaps, Temperance, and now when I'm finally in a relationship where I can be honest and open and able to truly share myself with someone you go and…"
Brennan gave a teary laugh, "You share everything? Hannah doesn't even know about your gambling history, Booth. I had to lie for you to get out of that conversation. And I assume she knows nothing about the true nature of your father... does she know how many lives you have to save in order to balance out your cosmic score sheet? Does she… does she know that I was going to have your baby, Booth? Did you share that with her?"
He warned her sternly, "Bones…"
Brennan forged on, tears falling freely now, "No, Does she know that you were in a coma after having a brain tumour pulled from your skull whilst I was… I was watching; terrified, Booth! And that when you finally woke up you thought I was your wife and that I was pregnant with our child? Did you share that with her? Huh?
"Did you tell her that you, out of the blue, with no warning nor precursor asked me to gamble our relationship because our meddling psychologist goaded you to, and that as soon as I said no, because I knew you'd wake up to yourself down the line and realise I was wrong for you; you took it back… you took it back, Booth… you didn't disagree with me, you didn't fight. And that's when I knew…" she sniffled, "I just knew."
Booth shook his head solemnly in answer to her questions; stepping up to her he went to reach for her arms to comfort her now shaking form.
She simply looked up at him; soul completely bared in the depths of her azure eyes before shrugging out of his grasp and fleeing through the door.
I know it's OOC but please let me know what you think! Should there be more?
