The Lion in the Squint

Story Intro: This was written for the Epic Proportions Event over on Ralst's website. That was posted so I'm just archiving here.

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters associated with Bones or the series written by Kathy Reichs. Fox Television Network, Kathy Reichs and others do. No infringement is intended as I’m just mucking about for entertainment and a bit of recreational fun.

Fandom: Bones

Pairing: Angela/Temperance Brennan

Rating: PG-13ish to R

Summary: Takes place after the episode – A Pain in the Heart at the end of Season 3. Call it a fix on a crappy ending with a rushed plot line.

Spoiler or Other Information: Most of Season 3 and some of Season 4, if you haven’t seen it, then well, you’re going to be surprised at how the season ended right before the writers’ strike.

King of Fools

Chapter 1 – King of Fools

The gate on my elevator rolls up and I step into the entryway of my home.  It’s quiet, like it always is.  It’s empty like it always is.  Usually, that’s just how I like it, the industrial feel of my apartment clashing with the deep, rich earth tones that I’ve decorated the place in, contrasting with the brick and concrete while blending in.  Making what should be a cold environment feel at once warm and relaxing. 

I slip my shoes off by the coat rack to my right and sigh, the thick oriental carpet padding my feet.   Walking into the living area, I hit the ‘play’ button on the answering machine.  Jack’s sweet voice plays for me, “Hey, Ang, look I know you said you wanted to be alone, but…if you need or no if you want, come by.  I’ll be here.”   I hit the delete button and reconsider being alone tonight.
