I don't own the X-Files

Mulder entered through the door to the basement office and stopped mid step. He had seen a lot of erotic things in his time on the earth, many of them caught on film and normally played on his VCR, others were real life experiences, but nothing could have prepared him for this.

For at least seven years he had had a thing for his partner, from the moment she introduced herself way back when in 1992. He had made plenty of innuendos and marriage proposals, most she pushed away like the jokes they were, but on rare occasions she responded with one of her own or merely gave him a soft smile. For years they had been harboring feelings for the other and ever since New Year they knew something was there, but they chose to act on it fully.

That is until now.

Mulder looked from where he stood in front of the closed door at Scully. She sat oblivious to the presence of anybody with a delicious red apple in her hand. She took a bite small enough to fit in her mouth, but deep enough to cause secretion of the juice. She jumped a bit due to the fact this was her first bite and she failed to realize how juicy this one in particular was, but never the less she enjoyed the fruit. Mulder still watched her and as the juices fell from the delectable food he watched with an intense stare.

He followed one drop in particular that traveled from the apple, down her mouth, past her chin and to her neck, where it then continued it's journey to the valley beneath her shirt. He swallowed hard as his mind began to drift to thoughts of him licking her flesh only to taste her and the sweet fruit. He allowed himself a moment more of staring at her and that piece of produce he suddenly felt envious over, and then foolish for never had he felt so much spite for a piece of food before.

"You know Scully, an apple is said to be the most sinful food there is." He said breaking the silence and causing her to jump up to face him.

"Really?" She shot back pretending to enjoy the product in her hand. "I thought that was chocolate."

"No, of course not. Fruit had been known as the forbidden fruit." He said making his way past where she sat to take a seat at his desk across from her. "Referring to forbidden indulgence, illegal pleasure and even immoral pleasure. Not to mention the key term it holds in many forms of literary poetry referring to the females bosom."

Scully sat across from him, pretending that his words held no real affect to him and that every other word that came out of his mouth didn't just turn her on more. She also failed to notice that as he spoke his face was serious almost as if they had switched roles and he was playing her part while she listened and let the inappropriate thoughts roam her mind, she bit back her tongue from making a sexual remark.

"Also in Snow White it was the poison apple the witch got Snow White to eat." She nodded as if that meant nothing to her. "Not only that, but according to the bible it was the one fruit that Satan tempted Adam and Eve into eating." She nodded in agreement as she took anther bite, this time looking at him, almost teasing him.

"That all may be true, but I just like the taste." She said softly.

He watched again as the spirit of the apple leaked down her neck. He could almost see the sticky path it had left behind. He let his mind roam once again, his lips and tongue on her skin and her moaning beneath him about drove him wild. He could just imagine the taste of her and apple mixed, though he was almost positive she tasted better than the fruit.

Scully smiled to herself as she watched Mulder's facial expressions, he tried to show no emotion, but pure lust bled from him, she could see it in his eyes. She knew she was teasing him, she had planned on doing it this morning when she had first grabbed the apple from her kitchen. She was sick and tired of playing games and wanted to take things further, all she needed was a piece of fruit and a little patience, eventually he would take the next step.

"Do you have a napkin?" She asked softly pretending to wipe the juice from her neck, but instead she was intentionally rubbing it around.

"No." He managed to get out as she placed her finger into her mouth to lick the extract from it.

He watched as her finger entered her mouth and how it stayed open a bit so he could see her tongue move forward a bit to lick off the sweet nectar. He attempted to hide his arousal by this, but failed greatly as she now got up from where she sat and walked over to his side of the desk and sat on the edge.

"Did you know that an apple can also refer to lust?" She asked softly.

"How so?"

"Through the fact that lust is an inborn tendency as it is an original sin. Once person could see an apple and never understand why the need of another is present, but only that they long to have somebody else to indulge the sexual desires." She inches closer to him and was only a few centimeters away and he could feel her knee against his thigh.

"Would you ever consider indulging in one's fantasies over a piece of fruit?" He asked, his calm demeanor desperately attempted to make a comeback.

"I suppose, if I felt a strong bond to the person in question and was willing to welcome on a relationship, but it all depends on who it is." She teased him once again by taking another bite of the half eaten apple.

"What if, theoretically speaking, it were me?" He asked he was now standing up from his seat and was only centimeters away, she could feel his erection pressing up against her thigh and smiled inwardly. He was eating out of the palm of her hand and that's when she took the meaning literally.

"Do you want a bite of my apple?" She asked as if the whole conversation before them had not taken place and that they were on opposite sides of the room, both starving, but he saw past her and lowered his mouth to take a soft bite of the fruit. He ended up leaking a few drops of the sweet apple essence onto her hand. He watched as she brought it to her mouth, but he stopped her, took the apple from her, threw it away and ran his tongue along her palm.

He watched as her head tipped back in pleasure and he took this opportunity to kiss the soft flesh at her neck. He began to nip at her neck and was brought over the edge as her hands wrapped around his neck and she pulled him closer. Their lips met and their tongues raged on in a battle neither of them would ever tire of.

His hands made quick work of her suit jacket and blouse before moving on to her matching black skirt. She cherished the feel of his mouth hot on her chest as she managed to pull off his jacket and shirt before moving to his pants. When she felt his hands on her back succeed in their mission to undo the clasp to her bra she praised him with kisses all over his face and allowing his pants to fall from his hips.

She could now feel his ever growing erection hard against her inner thigh and she longed to release him of his restraints, but failed as he beat her to it in her own case. She felt her black lacy underwear fall to the floor to join the matching bra and her other clothes. He took a moment to drink in the sight of her before lavishing his attention to once breast. She moaned in pleasure as he bite down softly at her nipples, causing her own personal nectar to form at the space between her thighs. She allowed her hips to buck forward and nudge him a bit, longing to have what her body craved…him.

She let her hands roam down his back as his attention moved from one breast to the other. She quickly did away with his boxers and was instantly pinned against the closed door to the basement office. He lowered himself to his knees so she was standing with her hands buried into his dark head of hair as he explored her lower regions. Certain sensations caused her to moan while others had her uttering his name over and over again. However, in the heat of the moment such as this, only his first name escaped her lips and only now coming from her was it the sweetest name his parents could have ever bestowed upon him. Her hips bucked forward again, only this time involuntarily as she neared her end. Knowing this he stopped and made the journey back up her body.

He moaned in pleasure as she took him in her hand and kissed his lips softly. She uttered only a simple 'Please' before he lifted her up, pushing her back against the door and opened her legs to offer himself better access.

To say the feeling of them being one was far greater than anything in the world, was nothing compared to how they truly felt. As he pulled out and thrust himself back into her over and over, soft moans and words of loved escaped passed their lips. As his speed increased and they neared the end they looked deeper into the other's eyes, knowing this moment was far greater than pure lust and extended beyond the ideas of pure biological instinct. Here in this moment as they both came together as one, screaming the other's name, were they allowed to find peace and love in their new home with the other.

Soft kisses were exchanged as they fell to the floor gently together and they lay like that for a few minutes before getting up and changing once again into their clothes. While Mulder finished up the last bit of a file, Scully sat on his lap every so often placing gentle kisses on his neck or lips, ones he kindly and lovingly returned.

"I love you." She whispered softly into his ear.

"I love you, too." He answered back placing a soft yet passionate kiss on her lips.

"I think we should go home, because the last thing I want to do right now is work." She said smiling giving him a small smile.

"I know what you mean. I'll just finish this up and we'll tell Skinner we have a small case to investigate. He'll never be the wiser." He said signing his name down at the bottom of the report before moving the file in Scully's direction for her to sign as well.

"Just promise me we won't leave the bed?" She begged as he closed the file up and placed it into the filing cabinet as she pulled her jacket on.

"Can't do." He said honestly, she gave him a sad look. "Why not?"

"Because I have a plenty other fantasies that involve you and I'm sure you have some of your own, and mine don't really involve much of the bed." He said honestly kissing her neck.

"Ok fine." She said smiling at him, "But just know that may fantasies will keep us busy for years to come." She said honestly letting him know she was in this for the long haul.

"Really? You'll just have to think of more because I got so many we may have to ask for an extension on life." He said smiling at her and got a real genuine laugh from her as they entered the elevator and headed to his apartment.

Mulder was glad that the old saying 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away' wasn't true, because he planned on keeping this doctor at his side until the day they both died.
