As Scully looked down at his bleeding battered body tears started to form as the realization set in that he was dyeing and it was all her fault.

Special agent Dana Scully of the F.B.I. had made the biggest mistake of her life. She and a group of officers had a suspect cornered, what she didn't know…. He had a gun.

"Sir please turn around and place your hands on the wall where I can see them" Scully shouted pointing a gun at the suspects known as Pyro.

"Dana Scully am I right?" Pyro asked looking at Scully straight into the eyes.

"Well Dana Scully, I know how to make your life crumble beneath your very feet" Pyro announced.

"Starting with the person who means the most to you" Pyro exclaimed reaching into his pocket.

Before Scully knew what he was doing he shot directly into the group of officers. BANG BANG BANG.

As soon as Scully saw the 9 caliber revolver in his hand she shot him. Pyro lay lifeless on the floor, but so did someone else…. Mulder.

"Mulder? Mulder!"Scully shouted as she rushed over to him dropping to her knees as she arrived at his motionless, lifeless body. She leant over his wound to apply pressure when to her shock horror Mulder not only had one gun shot wound… but two.

Mulder opened his eyes to the vision of an angel over him, Scully.

"Mulder, how are you doing?" Scully asked knowing it was a stupid question to be asking him under the circumstances.

"I…I've been better, Scully?" Mulder stated.

"Yes?" Scully replied.

"How many times have you got me shot now?" Mulder asked smiling, under the pain, Mulder found this funny that Scully kept getting him shot.

"I'm so sorry Mulder if I knew he had a gun I would have taken my shot when I had the chance, and he was right he has made my world crumble beneath my very feet starting with someone who means the most to me" Scully articulated looking at down Mulder bleeding body tears started to structure and bellowing down her cheeks.

Mulder started to lose consciousness his eyes getting very heavy.

"Mulder, Don't close your eyes, promise me you will do all you can to keep your eyes open" Scully wept.

"O…o…okay, b…but what if I do?"Mulder asked in a lot of pain.

"You won't Mulder, just keep them on me" Scully whispered tears streaming down her face as she grabbed Mulder's hand placing it to her lips. Mulder eyes started to close.

"No Mulder, come on, stay with me" Scully bellowed.

Mulder opened his eyes with haste trying to fight it.

"W…what will you do if I keep them open" Mulder asked clenching Scully hand in pain, but a smile appearing on his face half with pain and half with anxiety.

"What do you mean Mulder" Scully asked pulling her hand from Mulder's and rubbing it. Then grabbing it again.

"Sc….Scully?" Mulder asked his body shivering.

"Yes Mulder?" Scully Replied.

"M…M…Marry me? Mulder asked the words still lingering on his tongue. He had finally asked her.

"What!" Scully retorted in shock and disbelief.

Mulder took his hand from Scully's and in pain tried to get his hand into his pocket. Before be could get what he desired from the pocket Scully grabbed his hand.

"Mulder, no, I don't want to bleeding out, stay still" Scully said refraining Mulder from moving.

Thunder bellowed throughout the sky the heavens opened drenching Scully and Mulder. Mulder pulled Scully down till her ear was to his lips and he whispered.

"M...my front left pocket"

Scully raised an eyebrow but did as he requested, she placed her hand in his pocked and rummaged around till she found a little red velvet box and she pulled it out.

"What is it?" Scully asked, a combination of tears and rain dripping of her face.

"O…open it" Mulder stuttered, shivering from the cold.

Scully opened it and there, to her surprise a gold engagement ring glistened blissfully. In the box a folder piece of paper stood, she opened it, and it was a letter.

Dana,

If you're reading this I've finally taken the courage to ask you to marry me. I love you with every single beat of my heart and have for a long time. The years we've spent together have been the best of my life because I've spent them with an intelligent, beautiful woman, you. I want to grow old with you and woke up to find you lying next to me in my bed to place a ring on your finger and guarantee you love. You are the only person I can't trust with my life and I cannot think of you growing old with another man but me. I'm sure you feel the same way. I know you shot me and I make you angry sometimes but I love you.

Mulder.x

As Scully read a smile appeared on her face and tear started to fall again but this time they were tears of happiness and joy, after so long she and Mulder were going to be together to grow old together, she knew it was love.

Scully's daydream vanished as Mulder took her hand, Scully looked down at Mulder and as she looked at his body, she knew he was dying and it was all her fault.

"I…I…I love you D… S...S…cully" Mulder proclaimed.

"I...I lo… Mulder? Mulder!" Scully screamed as the hand in hers turned lifeless and frail, she looked at his face and his eyes were closed. From a distance ambulance sirens bellowed out.

"M…Mulder? Come on Mulder" Scully whimpered.

His lifeless hand flopped in hers. She knew it, but couldn't believe it… he was dead. She took her finger and placed it on his neck to find a pulse and there, there stood a faint pulse of hope.

"Mulder, if you can hear me, yes I will marry you" Scully uttered tears descending down her cheeks.

"Good" A faint whisper murmured from Mulder's lips.

"Mulder? Answer me. I can't lose you, not again, I love you"

But this time there was no response she placed her fingers on his neck and the pulse was getting weaker by the second and his breath was getting slower, it was coming, Death.
