The Goop on the Girl. Nothing really major, but it probably wouldn't hurt to have already seen the episode.
A/N: This one's going out to
ama_blue as part of the
Bones Holiday Fic Exchange (thanks
zerodetorres and
tempertemper77! :) for all the organizing and being on top of things). Title comes from Elvis Presley's
I'll Be Home For Christmas. More specifically, a remastered version in which
Carrie Underwood lends her vocals. A thanks must go to the ever-amazing
_missmargaret_ as well. Seriously M, without you and your general awesomeness, this would be lost on JJ amidst all my other partially written, comma plagued... things. :)
Disclaimer: As always, I do not own
Bones. Nor any of the characters, places, etc. associated with the fantastic show.
Summary: He trails off, suddenly shy after his words and when he feels her heated gaze on him, he's overwhelmed with insecurities that he's just simply not used to having. He feels as if he's put his heart out there for her to take and he wonders if, inside that brilliant brain of hers, she realizes just how heavily this all is weighing on him. He feels like he's in some sort of limbo.
