Brennan walked calmly into her office. She wasn't quite sure what she was going to do yet. She could be mad at Booth and kick his ass or forgive him as Tori had suggested. Tough choice.

Booth was sitting on her couch with his head in his hands. It was obvious he was in deep thought and that he felt bad. She went and sat next to him and put her hand on his back. Tori was right.

There were tears on the grown man's face. He wasn't sobbing, but crying silently. She had never seen him this torn up before. What was she to say to her partner? The man she loved was upset and she had no idea how to react.

"I screwed up, Temperance. I shouldn't have said those things."

"Its okay, Booth. She's not mad at you and neither am I."

"I was just angry. She was talking about it as though it were nothing, as if none of it mattered. That little girl broke my heart when I found out what she had done and I don't think she even realizes that."

"Seeley look at me," it was difficult to look into his eyes with all the tears he had shed still falling down his cheeks. "She knows and she is sorry. Victoria does not take this lightly and she wishes she could take it all back. She wants to make this all better."

"So do I, but how?"

"You just need to talk to her. She said that you guys were really close as kids and she wants that back. Can't you see how badly she wants you to help her?"

"No I can't. She won't talk to me about anything."

"That's because she thinks that you don't want to talk to her. She thinks that you hate her for all the things she did."

"I don't hate her. I just wish she hadn't done that stuff."

"She was upset."

"I realize that, but she could have just talked to me about it. I know that she had it the worst, finding the body and all, but we were there for her. At least I was."

"She can't help it Booth. She was raised in such an environment that she just bottled everything and let it out through physical means."

"Since when do you know psychology, Bones?"

"I don't, but I think Sweets said that once. Now will you go apologize to your sister?"

"Yes," he got up and wiped the tears from his face. "Did you call me Seeley earlier?" he had his charm smile on his face and that look in his eyes that Brennan absolutely adored.

"Shut up and go talk to your sister."

"I don't think I can really do both at the same time."

"Smart ass."

"Hey! You know what, objectively I am very smart though that has nothing to do with my ass."

"Go away," she said teasingly; really she didn't want him to leave. Ever.

Booth walked over to Angela's office where he knew Tori would be. He didn't know what to say to her and he highly doubted that she had forgiven him. Bones sure thought so, but she didn't know Tori like he did.

Angela and Tori were sitting across from each other in some chairs. They were talking and laughing. He was tempted to just leave them. Tori looked happy and she didn't seem upset now.

"Angela?"

"Oh hey, Booth! What do you need?"

"Can I talk to Tori? Alone?"

"Yeah, sure thing." She got up and left and Booth took it as a good sign that Tori didn't cling to her arm and beg her not to. Booth was then left there, standing awkwardly.

Tori stood up and walked over to him.

A/N: I love my evilness, don't you? I might not update for a couple days because I have friends to hang out with and Thanksgiving, but eventually you will know what happens.

Hope you enjoy and please review if you want more. I usually accept bribes.
