Pain in the Heart

Brennans POV

I sat on the staircase and heard footsteps. I saw Booth sit down beside me. He had a letter.

"Dear Mr. Addy, It is my pleasure to offer you the post of my intern in forensic anthropology. I chose you from hundreds of applicants because of your knowledge, your desire to learn and because I feel you will find a home here."

He folded the letter back up, "I think you gave him something great Bones." He said handing me the letter. At that moment, it felt good to have Booth back. He always knew how to make me feel better in any given situation and Im glad that he was here for this one. When I thought he died, nobody was aware but I cried night after night just looking at pictures of Booth, looking at Jasper, Brainy Smurf, even thinking about Booth made me cry. I went into deep thought about what I would do if he actually died and I knew he wasn't coming back. The thoughts scared me and I decided that I did not want to start crying in front of Booth. I put my head on his shoulder and he put his head on mine. I felt a weight being lifted off my shoulder but still I felt like my life was missing something.

Booths POV

"Hey Bones?"

"Yeah?" I said sitting up.

"When I was…'dying' or whatever…you said…that you loved me. Did you…mean it?"

Silence. I knew that she wanted to say yes so bad but she was scared what it would do to our partnership.

"I-"Before she could get anything out, Cam walked down.

"Hey, sorry to interrupt you…but were going home and Angela wanted to know if you two were going to be okay alone because she is staying with Hodgins."

"Uh…I will be fine im sure." Bones said.

"Yeah, ill be okay, thanks Cam, good night."

"Night you guys."

"Im tired, im going to go home Booth. Good night."

She got up and began walking upstairs and when she reached the top, she said,

"And about the proposed question Booth, my answer, I feel is the right one but the wrong one. Wrong because I am not supposed to feel anything of this kind because I believed for the majority of my life that it didn't exist. Right because it feels right and I have never been surer of myself but…my answer is simply yes."

"Serious?"

"Yes."

"I…love you too Bones." She walked back down and I stood up. My arms went around her waist and hers went around my neck. We both leaned in and had a passion filled kiss. Afterwards, she let go and walked up to the top once again.

"Thanks for that Booth, ill see you tomorrow." She smiled.

"Bones, totally not fair." She ran off and I followed.

"Bones! You owe me more than that!"

She stopped and I ran into her.

"Bones. Now, are you going to give me what I deserve?" I said as I began kissing her neck and she laughed.

Then she said, "Booth, uh…"

"Hey Booth, Brennan." I stopped and looked behind me to find Angela, Hodgins and Cam staring wide eyed and with a huge smile on.
