Hi. This is just a one-shot because i was watching this episode again and i was bored. Please leave a review :)


"Agent Mulder, Agent Scully, I guess this is it, huh."

"You're not gonna stay and watch?"

Frank Black, his daughter, Mulder and Scully all stood in the hospital waiting room, after a rather eventful day. This case had been a peculiar X-File from the very start. A necromancer in Rice County had been exhuming graves of members of a secret society called the 'Millennium' group, and rising them from the dead so that they could survive in the 'apocalypse' that was meant to start on New Years' 2000. Mulder had obviously gotten himself into some trouble, trying to be the hero of the day, and got trapped in a basement with four dead 'zombies'. Eventually Scully came and saved the day, Smith & Wesson in hand. They checked into the Burnside Memorial Hospital, for Mulder's broken arm, which is where they are now, small talking.

"No, we just want to go home. Take care of yourselves.".

They watched father and daughter walk hand-in-hand down the cream hallway and out of the door. No words were spoken as the TV caught both of their attention, as the countdown began.

"Are you ready? 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! Happy New Year 2000!"

As the non-traditional version of 'Auld Lang Syne' started playing,the screen flashed shots of people cheering and celebrating, but one shot caught Mulder's eye. It was of a young couple kissing. He imagined himself in that position, but instead of the brunette, he would have his fiery red Scully with him. He gazed over at Scully, thinking now might be his only chance to show her what he means to her. Their eyes met as he began to lean closer, until his lips grazed cautiously over hers. her eyes flitted closed as their mouths collided. Her touch was electric to him. Instead of seeing the fireworks show outside, he was experiencing a fireworks show of his own. they kissed for what seemed like an eternity. Not a bad eternity, but a pleasant one. When their lips parted, he regretted even thinking it was like an eternity, as he realised the sensation was only fleeting and ended too soon. She smiled at him lovingly, as did he to her. He tried to read her face, but she just smiled even more. He didn't think that anyone could ever be as beautiful as she was right then. they gazed into one another's eyes, a look of pure joy and happiness.

"The world didn't end.". Mulder gave her a toothy grin.

"No it didn't."

Their gaze came to a halt, as they shifted side-by-side, staring off into space.

"Happy New Years', Scully"

"Happy New Years', Mulder"

He put his arm around Scully and they both made their way out into the night, drunk with silent happiness, and a memory that would forever be in-grained into their minds.
