No copy right intended. This is set around season six or seven, you choose. Enjoy!
It had been a long, exhausting day at work, and now I am finally home, dragging my ass upstairs to my apartment. It's the end of the month, which means our expense reports are due. Turns out, we had a lot of paper work to catch up on. Who knew? So, Scully and I made a pot of coffee and set out to work. At the end of the day, I walked her to her car,and opened the door for her. Once I knew she was safely on her way, I went to my own.
Unlocking my darkened apartment, I felt a presence in the room. Then, I felt cold metal to the back of my head. Perfect.
"Sit down, Agent Mulder," a bold voice spoke. I turn around, and just as suspected, it was Cancer man.
"Is this going to take long? I need a shower," I smart off. I get a smack to the back of the head.
"I came here to make a deal with you," he offered.
"Oh, I like games. I choose door number three," I voiced. I got another open palmed smack to the face. I grabbed my face and quickly sat down on the couch pissed off.
"Stop smarting off. Do you want to see your sister again," he plainly asked.
"Is that question rhetorical," I asked.
"I will make you a deal," the voice said calmly. I knew it wasn't going to be easy. Nothing comes without a painful price.
"I will give you your sister back. However, you must undergo special surgery to remove all memory of Agent Scully from your brain."
"What's the catch," I ask.
"Agent Scully will remember who you are, but you will have absolutely no recollection of who she is."
"Why," I gasp.
"I have my reasons, Agent Mulder. I don't feel the need to share them with you," he offered.
"Can't we make her forget me instead," I ask. I would honestly rather have her forget me. I don't want to cause Scully any pain. I know losing me would have an effect on her, and I also know she would come looking for me, and try to get me to remember her. She'd never give up on me, and I wouldn't want that life for her.
"No. The deal is that you undergo the surgery. Don't ask anymore questions. You have twenty-four hours to decide. I will find you, Agent Mulder."With that, he left.
I had a lot to think about. Could I let Scully live without me? Yes, I could, only if it didn't hurt her on any level. It would undoubtedly hurt Scully. She may not admit it, but she and I have a bond. I don't know if she loves me, but I do know that I am her best friend. We've been together for six years. There is no way that it wouldn't hurt her on some level.
I grab my keys and jacket, and I head over to Scully's apartment. I have to talk to her about this. I can't make this decision without her. I only hope that she talks me into the right decision.
TBC!
