I stared down at the plastic stick in amazement. I couldn't believe it. There was no way. It had been proven. I could never have children. All because of that damned abduction. But now...oh Jesus...it had come true. I was pregnant. I felt like the happiest woman in the world. It was not just the fact that I was pregnant, but it was the fact of who was the father. I wanted to tell him so badly. Was he at work? Yes, he was. Against all of his protests, I had taken a personal day, and he had gone to work. I headed toward the J. Edgar Hoover Building in DC.
After I searched our office and checked with Skinner and others, I realized that he had probably been on his way home when I was on my way to the office. With a smile, I headed back towards the apartment. Our apartment. That had such a nice ring to it. I arrived at the apartment building soon enough. I heard music softly playing. I inserted my key into the lock and turned it, opening the door to find...Mulder there, kissing another woman. A blonde. Figures. Tears blurred my vision. He pulled his lips away from hers to look at me.
"Scully, wait. It's not what you think it is."
I stood there, wiping away my teasr. "It's not, is it? So, basically, I'm dreaming that you're sitting here french kissing another woman?"
"Scully, you don't understand." The blonde stood up, smoothing her hair. She traipsed over, an amused smile playing at her mouth. She draped herself over Mulder.
"So this is the woman you've been complaining about. I see what you're getting at. She does seem a bit cold, doesn't she? It's amazing you've been with her as long as you have." I felt fury boil deep inside me. I blinked back tears again.
"You ASS!" My fist coiled and I punched him in the jaw. The woman seemed appalled, but I just stomped into the apartment. I quickly threw things into a suitcase. "All this 'Scully, you're too good for me' shit...all this time, you were just playing me. Mulder, you played me for a fool. Take back all those 'I love you's and all those hugs and kisses. Obviously, I'm not good enough for you. I don't deserve them. Not if they were only lies." I zipped up my suitcase, slung my purse on my shoulder, and stalked out. I took my cell phone and threw it on the floor harshly, watching it split into a thousand pieces. I started running out into the hallway. He followed. I ran faster. He caught up within a few strides. I punched him in the stomach. "You stay the fuck away from me. I don't want anything to do with you anymore." I decided to go over to my mom's place. I threw our apartment key forcefully down against the wooden floor of the hallway. "Have your damn apartment key. Give it to your new girlfriend." I spat the words. I walked away. From him. From her. From our apartment. From our life.

Well, isn't this just the biggest shit heap of them all? This was all Skinner's fault. Assigning me the damn objective in the first place. God, why had I agreed? I had been thinking of proposing to Scully tonight, but that was obviously impossible. She was pissed at me. She was more than pissed at me. She was reeling. She was leaving our apartment, she had punched me twice, she had...God, I hoped this was only temporary. "Get out, Delila."
"Fox, honey..." Isn't it amazing how much she reminds me of Diana? God. This whole thing was just so stupid.
"LEAVE," I forced out. She huffily grasped her jacket and huffed out. No way was I going after her. I closed the door behind her, locked it, and bowed my head down. This was utter disaster. She had even thrown her cell phone down at the floor with such force that it broke. There was no way I could contact her now. I could try her mother's number, but I doubt that her mother would even let me speak to her even if I called. I doubt her mother would even tolerate me after I had just so ruthlessly taken her daughter's heart, removed it, and stomped on it. I took a shuddering breath to calm my tears. It didn't work. They spilled onto my cheeks. I don't know how long I remained there, in that position. Crying my eyes out. How could I have been such a bastard? Man, I'd have done things to piss her off, but this...she found me out, there was no way she would forgive me this year. She caught me kissing another woman, for God's sake! I needed to call Skinner and tell him the jig was up. No need. He called me. I ran to pick it up.
"Hello?"
"Agent Mulder," he said, sympathetically. Oh shit. No. Please don't let it be what I think it's going to be. "I was just handed Agent Scully's resignation form, her badge, and gun. I'm sorry but we have to assign you another partner on the X-Files. She's left the FBI." I closed my eyes and started crying again. "Agent Mulder? Are you all right? Do you know why she resigned?"
"Sir, I was just about to call you. Um...you know how Agent Scully and I were involved?" I waited for his answer.
"Yeah?"
"She caught me...in our apartment...with her." I heard a heavy sigh. I had enunciated the words: caught, our, and her. "She didn't even give me a chance to tell her that it was an undercover assignment assigned to me by you. She punched me, sir, twice."
"Damn it, Agent Mulder. I don't want her and you to be...separated...because of something the Bureau needed you to do. You guys don't deserve this."
"Well, she left. She packed up. She threw her cell phone on the floor. It's not even in one piece. I have no other way of contacting her."
"I'm sorry, Agent Mulder."
"Yeah. You and me both." I hung up. I started pacing, feeling the tears well up again. Goddammit! She resigned. She left the X-Files. She left the FBI. She left me. All because of a stupid undercover assignment.

A/N: For those of you reading my works (which probably won't be many), I have a lot of fanfics where I have to write other chapters for. This one is one of my high-priority ones, since I have been thinking about writing this for a loooong time. Angelic Baby, I may write another chapter to appease my fans (haha! I have fans! That's a good one!) :-) To all of you who are keeping track to see if I update Angelic Baby or any other fanfic, it might be a while. Sorry. But this one, I'll try and keep you posted.
PS~Please review!! No feedback...no good story? No chapter?
