***Author's Note: Please, before reading this, know what you are getting yourself into. I don't want to be held responsible for your problems, as I will warn you now, this will be very graphic and intense. It will cross the lines of normal writing and powerful writing. I will take you on a thrill ride that if you can take it, you won't soon forget. I hope to have you hooked, and that you will keep craving more and more, as I write chapter after chapter until I reach the climax and its all done. I promise you, you won't know what the real story is until then, it will keep you guessing. I don't like stories that are obvious right off. That is part of the reason I am writing this. That and I like the upper hand that I have, as a writer, that you can't jump to the end and see how it all ends. Be warned...if you are weak of stomach, this isn't recomended...faint of heart, same thing. If you like this type of story, read on, but be forthwarned...once you enter this, you won't want to leave. It'll keep you hooked and craving for the next chapter, which will prolly be about every two weeks. I don't want to be the writer that lets you know everything right away, but you will get little clues along the way that you will need to put together to solve this X-File. So go on and read...but don't do it with the lights out and alone...you may very seriously regret it...***

***Special Note: I am including this song to help convey the emotions that are brewing between Celeste and Scully...***

"It's Been Awhile"

Staind

It's been awhile

Since I could

Hold my head up high

And it's been awhile

Since I first saw you

And it's been awhile

Since I could stand

On my own two feet again

And it's been awhile

Since I could call you

And everything I can remember

As fucked up as it all may seem

The consequences that are rendered

I stretch myself beyond my means

And it's been awhile

Since I could say

That I wasn't addicted

It's been awhile

Since I could say

I loved myself as well

And it's been awhile

Since I've gone and

Fucked things up

Just like I always do

And it's been awhile

But all that shit

Seems to disappear

When I'm with you

And everything I can remember

As fucked up as it all may seem





Chapter Seven

The Well Worn Lock

Arlington National Airport

Arlington, Virginia

6:45 PM

The airplane came in fast and low and shrieked loudly as it landed. People gathered around the platfrom and waiting area waiting for thier friends and family...however Scully, Doggett, and Reyes were waiting for somone else. A friend from the past that they needed his help in the worst of ways, who was risking his life by just showing up. But he owed it to Scully...and William to come back. But he was worried that Scully would get upset about Celeste and would not accept her, or she would love her and accept her, he didn't know what to expect, but he was ready for either. As he got off the plane, he glanced around...it was nice to be back home...yeah...home is where the heart is. But this wasn't a trip for plessure, but more or less a trip to help a friend in dire need. And he wanted to get this done and over with so they could have time to catch up and talk.

Celeste soon followed and they were off into the sea of people, looking for Mulder's old friends. They soon found each other and were greeted nicely.

"Hello." said Reyes, looking at Scully, who was about to cry as it looked.

"Scully..." said Mulder...slowly dropping his bags and hugging her. Celeste gave Scully a snide look, but quickly offered to shake her hand in greetings. So this was Dana...hhhmmm...is she really as good as he makes her upto be, or no? Scully let go of Mulder after nearly lossing her composure and looked over Celeste.

"Hi." she replied.

"Hello, I'm Celeste Martin...Foxies fiancee."

"Fiancee?" asked Doggett, finally speaking up and breaking his own, personal creepy silence.

"Yes. I just asked her to marry me...we have been seeing each other for awhile now, sorry I didn't say,. but it was kinda too hard to say that over the phone when you guys call me and ask me to come back. Ya know? So whats the deal?" he said, looking at Reyes, who was also in a creepy trance- like state.

"Plessure to meet you Celeste." said Scully, offering her hand. Celeste took it and shook. She looked Dana in the eyes and gave her a flash of anger...almost jealousy in there...she knew she'd have to rub it in, but not with Foxie standing so close...and just yet. She'd have to wait till the time was right.

"Excuse me, I have to go wash my eyes." said Scully, offeringly, as Celeste saw it, and she went to the bathroom. Celeste slowly followed, saying that she wanted to talk with Dana in private, and nothing more. Leaving Mulder, Doggett, and Reyes to chat. Mulder stood on his heels, rocked back and forth and smiled.

"So, hows life Agent Doggett?"

"Don't ask Mulder...Dana hasn't been doin too well since you left and your return seems to have taken a big effect on her...as well as your fiancee whom she had no idea about...sorry to say, you might have to compensate. Scully...or Celeste...I have this bad feeling...I don't understand it, so don't ask me to explain...but somethin is gonna happen..." said Doggett...looking Mulder in the eyes and talking in a very serious tone. Mulder nodded and he knew not to argue with Doggett...from the time they spent together years ago, he knew he was serious and he knew Scully would be in good hands.

Inside the bathroom Scully finished washing up when Celeste walked up to her. She saw her in the mirror and turned around to greet her. She walked up and whispered into Scullys ear, just so she could hear it, just in case someone else was in the bathroom with them.

"And by the way Dana...Foxie is excellant in bed...rowl..." said Celeste, rolling her tongue and making it sexy and devilish. Dana's eye lite with a fire that she didn't know that she had, and she went to smack Celeste for saying such a damning comment, but she held off.

"How would you know bitch?"

"Cause I would. You do too?"

"No!"

"Ha...loser."

"Bitch!" said Scully smacking her face. She retracted, but came back with a punch that knocked Scully over and cut her lip right open...blood slowly crawled out and she got up, holding her lip. She shook it off, and looked Celeste back in the eyes. She forced down the feeling to smash her again, and so did Celeste, knowing what she ment to Foxie and all.

"Sorry." she said, helping her clean up, but she knew damn well this was fake...she just needed a ploy. It wasn't too much her fault, she didn't like Scully too much and she loved the thought that this made her jealous...she had an edge over her...and a good one at that. They walked out and went back to Mulder, Reyes and Doggett who were all standing and waiting.

"Whats with your lip, Dana?" asked Monica, noting it was bleeding a little.

"Oh, nothing, lets go back to my place...we have alot to catch up on...and talk about to see if we can catch this Goddamn son of a bitch that is after me again." said Scully walking to her car and getting in. Everyone soon followed and they were off.

Scully's Appartment

Georgetown, Virginia

7:32 PM

Nothing was said on the way to Scullys. Doggett just stared out the window as if in a trance and Monica sat and watched him with caring eyes and worring eyes. Mulder sat with Scully and Celeste, making sure the two didn't get into anything serious. Over the radio, Scully had playing "It's Been Awhile"...and Staind sang out how its been awhile since he'd gone and fucked things up, sending chills down Celsete's spine, and Scully knew that she was gettin it. Monica felt the tention, but didn't say anything, she didn't wanna ruin Mulder's happiness. She knew what he had...and had been through...and she wasn't about ready to ruin it on him...if she did she would compremies he return and him helping not only Scully....but her too...why she was havin these visions...and what they ment....
