Mulder stepped off the plane and made is way to the window, like a little boy fascinated by the planes. He was excited about the game the next day. They had floor tickets right in the center. Scully made her way over to Mulder and hugged him from behind.
"Lets
get our bags and get a cab to the hotel."
"Sure, you know… I
have been to New York a thousand times… but never experienced it
like tourist. Let's go to the Statue of Liberty and I've always
wanted to go to Rockefeller Center. Now I have the perfect person to
go with… and look here she comes" Mulder cracked a smile.
Scully punched him playfully in the arm.
"You better be kidding… if there's another woman…" Scully joked
Mulder tuned around and looked at Scully.
"There has never been or there will never be another woman. If I could have all the women in the world. I wouldn't, the only woman I want is standing right here."
Scully kissed Mulder then she pulled away.
"Lets continue this in the hotel."
"Mm I like the way you think. I love you"
"I love you more"
"Not possible"
Scully smiled and released her hug on Mulder and made her way to the trolley bay. She got a trolley and Mulder help her put the bags on it. Then they made their way to where the taxis came in. A taxi came not a minute later. The driver helped them put there bags in the car and Mulder allowed Scully to get in first and she told him where they wanted to go. The driver kept eyeing off Scully, Mulder noticed and started getting tense. Scully ignored the driver… but could not ignore the Mulder. She smiled and leaned over to him and held his hand. They arrived at the hotel a short time later. Mulder got out first and as Scully was getting out, the driver talked to her.
"Pretty lady what you doing later?"
This set Mulder off and her made his way angrily to the taxi but Scully stood in front of him.
"Don't ever talk to her! Other wise I will punch you so hard you kids are going to have to chew for you!" Mulder yelled.
"I was just joking"
"Go joke somewhere else."
The taxi driver drove off then.
Scully smiled at Mulder and held his hand to calm him down.
"Thank you for defending me Fox. Calm down and lets get settled."
"Sure. The nerve of that guy."
They got another trolley for their bags and made their way over to the concierge, where they where they where quickly served and given a key to their room. The bell boy would bring up their bags shortly.
The room was beautiful. It had a large bedroom and lounge room. A mini bar and a big bathroom with a hot tub big enough for two. But the feature Scully loved most of all about the room, was the huge balcony. It had a small table big enough for two people and was overlooking Central Park.
"I just love New York in the winter… It's so beautiful"
"I agree, but you are more beautiful."
"Fox? Are you trying to get me into bed?"
"That's exactly what I'm doing"
"Well,
just making sure"
Scully made her way to the bedroom and Mulder
followed enthusiastically. Being in New York with Scully and not
being on a case was something he wanted. There would be no
restrictions or rule breaking.
Mulder desperately wanted to get Scully a Knicks hoody or jersey, even though she knew very little about basketball. He wanted to get Scully to like the game… to share his passion. So he went out for a wander while Scully was looking through the hotel. He first took a look in the hotel gift shop. They sometimes had basketball merchandise when a game would be on. He was in Luck. They had a women's hoody. It was blue and had the Knicks logo on the front. Inside the hood was lined. It had a pattern of basketballs on it. Perfect. He took it to the counter and picked up a pack of sunflower seeds. The total came to $85. Scully was worth it. He then went in search for her. He found her on their balcony. She was overlooking central park. She had no idea he was behind her so he watched. He watched her face it was following something in the park. She was smiling slightly. Mulder knew. Tonight he thought. He would surprise her. He made his way over to Scully and placed the hoody on the table behind them. His hands went gently of her eyes and she turned around.
"Hey stranger, where did you go?"
"I was looking in the gift shop"
"What? No alien plush toys?" Scully grinned while teasing Mulder. He loved it when she teased.
"No, but they did have this" He reached behind him and gave her the gift.
"Aww thank you. Now I will look like I know what's going on."
"Don't worry, I'll explain things along the way."
"Good… now, I'm hungry lets have an early dinner. I read the brochure when we arrived. And it said that if we go down to the bistro between 5pm-8pm and mention this add, we get 25 off our meal. It says dinner for adults is $30. So that means its $22.50. That's a good price for all you can eat."
"You know the way to my heart. I hope they have plenty of food in the store room and fridge. Because I plan on eating a lot."
Scully walked back in the room while Mulder followed. She grabbed the brochure and read it again.
"Soda is $3 per glass or $7 for a pitcher. Tea and coffee are both $2.50 and beer is $4 per bottle."
"$4 beer Dana? That's good. I know what I'm having."
"Yeah, it is well priced. Lets get dressed."
Scully went looking through both hers and Mulder's suitcase to find something for them to wear. It wasn't a formal dining room. Just semi casual. So she decided on a simple light green blouse and a pair of blue jeans. She got out a long sleeved t-shirt for Mulder and his new green sweater also with blue jeans. The both dressed in the bedroom. Mulder getting dressed the quickest. While he waited, he sat on the bed fiddling with one of his crutches. When she was done Mulder made his way to the door and opened it up for her. They made there way to the Bistro which was at the end of the hotel lobby. Mulder paid for both he and Scully and they took a table for two at the window where u could see the city lights and part of Central Park. Mulder let Scully go first to get her food. He enjoyed watching her. She was back in less than five minutes. She had put a variety on her plate. When Mulder left he didn't come back till ten minutes later. His plate was filled with just about everything there.
"You know Fox, they let you go back."
"Yeah, but I wanted to try everything now."
They sat eating in a comfortable silence.
An hour later and 3 plates later (Mulder's of course.) Mulder had decided to take Scully on his surprise.
"Dana, I have a surprise for you!"
"OH!?... Tell me!"
"I can't… but I can show you… follow me"
Mulder stood up and grinned widely. Scully gave him curious smile back. He was leading her out the door. Scully noticed how much better Mulder was getting using the crutches…. He was walking a lot faster. They exited the hotel when Mulder stopped. He waved his hand in the air and the next thing Scully knew a horse drawn carriage awaited them. The driver spoke.
"Mr. Mulder, Miss Scully, you carriage awaits."
"OH! FOX! You make me love you even more with every gesture!"
"Well its all part of the Fox Mulder packaged deal… you are the only one to gets the deluxe package."
Mulder put helped Scully into the carriage then he got on himself with very little complications.
"Mr. Mulder, I have what you requested under the seat."
"Thank you."
Mulder reached under the seat and pulled out numerous things. One was a big blanket… for two, another was a bottle of champagne with two glasses and the last thing was a CD player. Mulder sat back and poured two glasses of champagne and pressed play on the player. It was the Cher song they danced to, "Walking in Memphis". The first song they danced to together. Scully's face lit up and she pulled on Mulder's shoulder so he was looking at her. She then kissed him passionately and Mulder wrapped them both up in the blanket.
"Fox, why this song? It's not really romantic…"
"It was the first time I got to hold you properly. Not because we were sad, or because we were scared. But because we could, and it was the time I really realised how I felt. When I figured out I was in love with you."
Once again, Scully had tears in her eyes. Everything he was saying was everything she wanted to hear from a man. Everything she heard and saw in fairy tales but never believed. Fox Mulder was truly everything she wanted and a lot more.
They sat close enjoying each other's silence. Their eyes closed, Scully's head on Mulder's shoulder. She thought he looked to so much younger and less stressed when he was relaxed. She just wanted to stare at him so she did just that, she stared, Mulder oblivious to it.
A small smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. She liked that but wanted to know what he was smiling about.
"Why are you smiling?"
"Hmm? Oh, I was thinking."
"Thinking about what?"
"Us. Me and you, our future."
"Our future? You think about think about those things?"
"Yeah, I do. Don't sound so surprised… I'm not a man afraid of commitment"
"I just would never have though about it that's all… I think about us. But I had no idea you thought about it."
"I do"
Scully smiled thoughtfully.
""what do you think about Fox?"
"Ok, well I think about marriage and family. I think about growing old and that sort of stuff… you know?"
Scully's face dropped a little, she couldn't give him a family. She would not work out for him. The thought of it made her cry softly.
"Dana, why are you crying? Are my ideas really that bad?" Mulder said trying to make her smile.
"I.. I can't give you children Fox, I can't. You want a family, I can't give you that. I can't have children. You know…"
Mulder reached his hand gently under her chin and guided her face softly to his.
"I know that you can't give me children, but that doesn't mean you can't give me a family."
"Fox, it's the same thing" Scully said in between sad tears.
"No it's not. We could adopt. You don't have to give me kids to love you. I love you more than enough already."
"Really?"
"Really, I love you more than I have ever loved anything. I'm not letting you go."
"I love you too! Now, can you finish up and kiss me?"
"Why would I wait?"
So they kissed while the driver took them back to the hotel where Scully hung onto Mulder. Not wanting to lose the best thing that ever happened to her.
