TV Show: The X-Files
Episode: Within
Scully couldn't sleep- there was too much on her mind. She decided to go to Mulder's apartment, things were the same there. It was like he had just disappeared- which he had. She looked around and noticed that his computer was taken, and she went to his bedroom. The shirt he had worn the day before was on his bed still. It was hard to look at it and she looked away as she held back her tears. She went over to the bed and sat next to the shirt. She held it in her arms and hugged it as she cried. She wanted him to come back- she tried not to cry but the smell of the shirt and being in his home made it seem like he was alive. Like he was here sitting with her, holding her. She frowned as she calmed down- she felt something in the shirt pocket. It was an envelope. She set the shirt down across her lap as she looked at the letter. It was red and said 'to Dana'. She lightly touched the envelope as she turned her head away again, holding back her tears. She looked back at it and turned it over as she opened it slowly. It wasn't a card inside- but a piece of folded paper- typical of Mulder. She smiled as she took it out- it seemed like a note you would pass in seventh grade. She started to unfold the note slowly, she was shaking- she felt so scared without him.
Dear Dana,
There's a lot of things unsaid in the world and I do all I can to seek the truth. I have all my life- I've searched for paranormal, for unexplainable- and tried to make sense of it all. I've missed a lot of things in life, a lot of things I wish I could have felt or experienced. But, the one thing that I couldn't make sense of, I enjoyed most. I would try my best to do what I thought was correct, what I thought made sense- but it always impressed me. I've worked with you for a long time Scully, and I've came across a lot of amazing things. But out of everything I've seen and could imagine, you were the most amazing. I'm dying Scully, and I know their coming- their coming to take me. I've waited so long, but every time I've had a chance I was reluctant. And now, it's my time to go. I love you Scully. And no matter where I am, or who I'm with, or what I change into, the one thing I'll never forget is you. I miss you, but you can't miss me. I've taken a lot from you life, putting you up to scavenger hunts and wild goose chases. I want you to raise the baby as the best mother you can be. I'm watching Scully, I don't want you to hurt. You live inside me, and I always have a picture of you in mind- you're going to get through this with out me. You don't need me, your baby needs you. I love you Dana, and I always will, -Fox Mulder
Scully was sobbing, she held the note when she let go of it. She took his shirt and held it tight. She cried and cried. She wanted him to come back- she couldn't help but hurt. She pulled her self up into his bed and held his shirt as she tried to calm down. She put her self to sleep by her tears. She knew she would see him again, and when she did she wouldn't let him go.
