Butterflies don't lie
Chapter 3
I wake up in the morning
Put on my face
I dragged myself out of bed and walked to the mirror. I looked terrible and I knew it. I grabbed my make up and covered my face, hoping that I would look better. I did.
The one that's gonna get me
Through another day
I just hoped no one realise how much the last case had affected me. I'd always said put your heart in a box to other people, but I'd failed to do that myself this time. I thought about the case. Booth had brought me the bones of a 16-month-old baby. The baby had been stabbed to death, I couldn't believe someone would do something like that to something so helpless. But it was the murderer who had shocked me. It was the baby's 10-year-old sister. She said she'd killed the baby because it got more attention than her.
Doesn't really matter
How I feel inside
This life is like a game sometimes
It had really got to me that this girl could kill her own sibling and such a helpless one at that. But I knew that it didn't matter how I felt, just as long as we caught the killer. But I couldn't just help feeling upset. I was just getting more and more cases that were upsetting me. I just felt like it was a sick game of cludeo that just wasn't coming to an end.
Then you came around me
The walls just disappeared
Then I remembered how Booth had comforted me, he knew how much it had upset me. I remembered when I used to keep myself closed up; when I made sure no one knew what I was really like. But Booth came and he made my walls crumble and fall.
Nothing to surround me
Keep me from my fears
I'm so unprotected
I didn't know if it was a good thing, he'd made me feel again. But I wasn't sure if that was good. Before I could just shut my emotions down during a case, but I couldn't do that anymore.
See how I've opened up
You've made me trust
But then again, I could trust people, I opened up. People knew what I was truly like.
I've never felt like this before
And now because of all this, I loved him. He made me feel like no one else had ever in my life. But why hadn't I told him yet? For that I had no answer. But because of the way he'd helped me through this case my mind was set, I was going to tell him.
I'm naked around you
Does it show
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked around you
And it feels so right
I felt differently about Booth than anyone else. When I was around him, I just felt like he could tell just how I was feeling. I felt like I couldn't hide anything from him. But this didn't feel horrible like I thought it would it felt nice. It felt nice that someone knew how I was feeling without having to tell them.
Trying to remember
Why I was afraid
To be myself
And let the fall away
I don't know why I didn't let people see what I was really like before Booth. I mean I let Angela in, but she didn't know everything, she didn't see everything.
Guess I never had
Someone like you
To help me fit
In my skin
Maybe I just needed someone like Booth to help me. I wondered what I would be like if I hadn't met Booth. Would I still spend day after day hunched over bones, feeling no emotion, keeping everything inside? Booth made me feel wanted. I know he cares for me, but was it anything more for him like it was for me? But I guess I'd never know if I didn't say anything. I ran from apartment to my car and went to the Jeffersonian.
I've never felt like this before
I ran into the Jeffersonian, he was outside my office. My heart sped up as I came closer to him. I could smell the sweat scent of his colane. I walked up to him.
I feel naked around you
"What is it, Bones?" He already knew I had something to tell him without even saying anything. But I hide from my eyes what it was to leave him wondering.
Does it show
I opened my office and let him in behind me.
You see right through me
"What are so happy about?" I started at him, how did he… never mind he always knew.
"I need to tell you something."
"What is it?"
And I can't hide
"Booth, I can't hide it any longer. I… I love you." There I had said it. I looked at him. He was silent. Was I about to have my heart broken or have my dreams come true?
I'm naked around you
He looked at me and I lost myself in his eyes. We inched closer and closer to each other and then his lips touched mind. He kissed me.
And it feels so right
We stepped apart.
"Me too, Bones. Me too."
