You're coming back. You're coming back, to me. How can I find fault with that? How could I be anything but grateful that I had been given yet another second chance? They don't come along that often in a lifetime …
I was at the station to meet you, just as you requested – with your mother and brothers. Billy wasn't too pleased, but your mother kept him in check, just by a look. I have a lot of respect for your mother, Scully.
And there you were. Slightly thinner than before, and with such short, short hair. I never knew that your hair curled when it was that short – but it sure is beautiful, Scully. Like you.
I waited until your family had finished with their welcomes before I managed to catch your eye. You came over to me, and hugged me so tightly I thought you were never going to let me go.
Never let me go, Scully.
I cried. I fell to my knees, buried my face in your neck, and literally bawled. You stood there soothing me, hugging me, and telling me the words I'd waited so long to hear.
"I'm here, Mulder. I'm not going anywhere without you, ever again."
