This is just something I thought of when listening to "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol.

It's set after The Truth when Mulder and Scully are in the Motel room.

I'm dedicating it to my obsession whores Sophie and Hannah and everyone who has reviewed any of my past stories

We'll do it all, everything, on our own

We don't need anything or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

He lay there silently watching her. He'd been trying to sleep for hours, but sleep wasn't coming tonight.

He loved watching Scully sleep, loving how innocent and perfect she looked. To him she always looked perfect.

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

He reached out to stroke her cheek and was surprised to find that it was wet with tears. Scully's eyes fluttered open and stared back at him.

Those eyes he loved so much looked full of sadness.

She smiled weakly at him reaching out to touch his hand.

Taking her outstretched hand he moved closer to her, wrapping his arms around her. With his free hand he reached out and brushed away the rest of her tears.

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

She opened her mouth to speak, but was quickly silenced by Mulder's lips closing over hers.

She melted into his kiss allowing him to attempt to kiss away all the pain that had built up inside her.

His tongue explored her mouth driving the kiss even deeper. She reached up and ran her hands through hisshort brown hair. She had missed his kisses so much.

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Mulder pulled back allowing Scully to lie with her head on his shoulder.

They didn't need words, not anymore, when they lay together they forgot all about what the future held for them.

In that moment they forgot the world around them, and all of theirproblems.To them it felt like only they existed and as long as they were together they would survive.
