"Never give up a miracle", Mulder whispered. Silently sobbing, Scully pressed
her lips against his cheek and then neck as he hugged her tightly.
They stayed like that for more than five minutes, until Mulder felt the tears
stop failing against his neck. Gently , he pulled away and looked up at Scully.
Her eyes were red rimmed; she sniffed, as unshed tears lined her dark lashes.
God he thought, she looked so downcast and downtrodden. He had never seen her
like this, and it scared him "Scully," he asked with a horse voice. She looked
at him, but he could tell she was a million miles away. "Yes." "Maybe I should
stay the night keep you company." He didn't mean it in a sexually way. He just
wanted to stay with her to make sure that she was okay. He didn't want to leave
her not after all this. But Scully shook her head.
"No it's okay. I'm just going to go straight to bed" she said softly, and Mulder
felt the wall coming up around her, keeping him out once again. "Scully."
"Mulder, please leave. I just need to be by myself right now. I promise I'll
call you in the morning," she said gently touching his arm. Against his better
judgement Mulder nodded. "If you need anything-anything at all, remember I'm
just a phone call away" Mulder said. Scully give him a small smile, but to
Mulder it looked more like a grimace. She opened the door for him and just
before he stepped out into the hallway, he reached out and gently tucked a piece
of loose hair behind her ear. "I'm sorry Scully," he whispered, his hand grazing
his cheek and he left.
Scully closed the door as Mulder walked down the hallway. As soon as the door
was closed, Scully let out a breath, pressed her back against the closed door.
She scrubbed at her eyes with the palm of her hands, trying to stop the hot
tears falling, but they still slipped free. Moving away from the door, she made
her way into the bathroom, plugged the bath and twisted the taps adding more hot
than cold water. Waiting for the bath to fill, she made her way into the kitchen
and yanked open the fridge door. She took out the half empty bottle of red wine,
and uncorking it raised the bottle to her lips, but stopped at the last moment.
"This isn't me," she thought to herself. Never has she tried to drink away her
problems, not even after Emily. She took a wineglass and poured out some of the
wine.
Switching the kitchen light, Scully made her way back in the bathroom to find
the bath almost full. She stopped the taps, put down her wineglass and shed her
clothing, leaving them in a messy pile.
After lighting a few candles. She slipped a foot into the clear water, and
brought it back out with a hiss. The water was very hot, but instead of reaching
to turn on the cold tap on, Scully stepped into the water. She bit her lip
against the pain as she slid into the water, her skin soon turning pink. She
still didn't reach for the cold tap, sliding into the water until it touched her
shoulder. She reached out and took the wine glass , raising it to her lips.
Taking a drink she leaned back and closed her eyes.
Her free hand reached under the water and skimmed across her flat stomach, that
only a few hours ago held the promise of a new life, but was now empty. She
stayed like that until the wineglass was empty, the water had cooled, letting it
slip from her fingers to crash to the floor. Scully slid under the water, the
water stinging her eyes, but she didn't close them.
Under the water, she watched the candle light flicker. Lungs burning from the
lack of air she didn't surface. She had read that drowning was the calmest way
to die; that your body just slipped away. Just like falling asleep, Scully
thought. Her lungs were screaming for oxygen but she still didn't surface. "It
would be so easy just to close my eyes and slip away, "Scully thought as she let
her eyes slip shut....
