**Disclaimer: I do not own anything with BONES or any songs in my stories. I just love Booth and Bones love story. **
Writer's Note: I know it has been awhile since I have done one of these. But I heard this song the other day and it just came to me. Also, if the lyrics are wrong I apologize I copied them from a website and then I listened to the song again, so I think it is correct.
Like the Rain
By Clint Black
I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you
Every thunder cloud that came was one more I might not get through
On the darkest day there's always light and now I see it too
But I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you
I hear it falling in the night and filling up my mind
All the heaven's rivers come to light I see it all unwind
I hear it talking through the trees and on the window pane
When I hear it I just can't believe I never liked the rain
Like the rain I have fallen for you and I know just why you
Liked the rain always calling for you I'm falling for you now
Just like the rain
When the cloud is rolling over thunder striking me
It's as bright as lightning and I wonder why I couldn't see
That it's always good and when the flood is gone we still remain
Guess I've known all along I just belong here with you falling
Like the rain I have fallen for you and I know just why you
Liked the rain always calling for you, I'm falling for you now
Just like the rain I have fallen for you
I'm falling for you now just like the rain
And when the night falls on our better days
And we're looking to the sky
For the winds to take us high above the plains
I know that we'll find better ways to look into the eye of the storms that will be calling
Forever we'll be falling
Like the rain I have fallen for you, and I know just why you
Like the rain always calling for you, I'm, falling for you now just
Like the rain I have fallen for you, and I know just why you
Like the rain always calling for you, I'm, falling for you now just
Like the rain I have fallen for you, and I know just why you
Like the rain always calling for you, I'm, falling for you now just
Like the rain
Like the rain
Like the rain
Like the rain
Like the rain
Like the rain
A thunder clap is what woke him from his sleep. Now awake, he got out of bed and headed to the window. It was one hell of a storm. The rain was pelting on the window. Before rain storms never bothered him but lately every time it rained he hated it. The rain reminded him of that encounter so many years ago, meeting the woman that would be the standard for the rest of his life. Ever since he and Hannah broke up though, Booth couldn't stop thinking about his partner.
When it rained, it would bring back two memories so vividly. The first was always the better of the two. That night almost seven years ago, when Caroline made him fire the Jeffersonian because Bones punched Federal Judge Hasty, he had Bones meet him at the bar and they did shots of Tequila just so he could get the nerve up to fire her. He didn't want to sever relations with this woman, she was like no one he had ever met before and for a woman she could drink. She kept up shot for shot with him. She intrigued him. Then when he did fire her, in Bones' blunt way she said then they could have sex. He had never had a woman say that to him before. Bones always did what she wanted even back then and she wanted him. They went outside to get the cab, it was raining. That kiss in the rain outside of the bar, even though they were both filled with a lot of Tequila, he knew she was the one. That kiss, he had never felt that way from a kiss before and never again. The electricity, the fire, the passion, if that is what happened with just a kiss imagine what the sex would have been like. Sex would have just be left to the imagination though because on that night in the end, they went home alone. Maybe they both realized that there was something more there than just sex, one night of passion but whatever the reason now there is something much more.
The other memory he wishes that he could get rid of totally. That night that he saved Bones from getting hit by a car. The rain pounding so hard, but when Bones poured out her heart to him about regret. His heart pounded just as hard as the rain hitting the SUV. She regretted that she said no to him, that she made a mistake but the only thing he could say to her is I'm with someone and she isn't a consolation prize. He told her she would just have to adjust like he did. And now what a few weeks later the woman who wasn't a "consolation prize" he had broke up with. He broke Bones' heart because of her. How did his life get so messed up so fast?
Booth shook his head, touched the window and sighed. He turned, heading back toward his bed, flipped the light switch and grab for his cell. Pressed the familiar number that was saved in the number one spot of his speed dial, "Hey Bones, hope I didn't wake you. Yeah, the storm woke me up too."
Funny how he actually knew she would be awake. Two people so in sync with each other. Some day he hoped that he could show her physically how two people could almost be one. Since emotional they were. He knew right now they were both healing from the pain of heartbreak, but once the healing was done they just needed to stop being so scared.
They talked to each other until the sound of their voices lulled the other to sleep.
Maybe after "this" storm, they will both find the rainbow at the end.
