Summary: Mulder's POV at the end of DeadAlive
I was aware. That was the first thing I felt. Then I felt… me. It was a weird sensation, going from not feeling anything to feeling something. Why hadn't I felt anything prior? Maybe I was in a deep sleep, or I got hit on the head again. That's it, I probably have a concussion. When I open my eyes, I will see Scully sitting next to me as always. Okay body, time to wake up. Body… wake up! My hand moved!!
"Mulder."
Is that Scully? Open your eyes you idiot! Woo! Ooo, everything's a bit fuzzy. I must have been hit hard. Where's Scull- oh, there she is!
"Hi."
Hi to you, Scully. She looks upset. Crap. Let me make her smile:
"Who are you?"
Woah, my voice is scratchy. She looks even more upset! Give her a smile, Mulder, you know who she is. I was just foolin' with ya, Scully. See, smile.
"Oh my God. Don't do that to me."
I got you big time, Scully! Wait, she's still upset! She's crying. How bad am I?
"Do you know…? Do you have any idea what you've been through?"
What? What does she mean by that? I did just get hit over the head, right? I guess not?
"Only what I see in your face."
Well, whatever happened to me, I am with my Scully now. She doesn't look that upset anymore, I guess because I woke up. She's resting her head on me now. I missed the way her hair smells. Wow, if I've missed that then I must have been out of it for some time.
"Anybody miss me?"
I can always make her laugh. Well, I'm not going to think of what happened anymore. Scully's here. That's all that matters.
