A video tape had been placed in her hands with the title reading "Superstars of the Super bowls". Another tears escaped the corner of her, quickly followed by 2 more. "So we can assume you've figured out who it is?" Maury asked. Scully spoke softly, almost inaudibly. "Oh my God...It's Mulder." When she said this the crowd, who had been appropriately quiet, roared to life. Mulder stepped up to her and gave her a smile and a nervous look.
"Well what do you think Scully? Did you see it coming?" Mulder asked tentatively.
"To be honest Mulder, I kinda hoped it would be Skinner." Scully deadpanned. Mulder's jaw dropped for a few long moments until Scully choked out a short laugh between tears and he knew she was kidding. "So, what is your decision Dana?" Asked Maury "Are you going to keep him or send him packing?" It was quiet for a moment and then one rather heavy middle aged woman called out from the audience, "Honey, if you don't want him then you can just send him right over here and I'll take him!!" The crowd erupted into laughter but soon became quiet again, enraptured in the tense scene unfolding in front of them.
Mulder shifted from foot to foot and looked at Scully with that expression of his resembling a lost little puppy. That was it, that was all it took, that was all it ever took. She closed the three foot distance in between them quickly, reached up and held Mulder's face in her hands for a moment.
"This is it," Mulder thought "She's gonna tell me to get lost.
Much to his surprise, Scully leaned in a kissed him passionately for the better part of a minute. The audience was eating it up, especially when Scully's leg lifted up in true movie fashion.
Once they had separated, she looked up at him and said quietly, "Hmmm, almost as good as Skinner..." Mulder's face dropped again but he recovered and laughed along with her. She turned to say to Maury "I think I'll hang onto this one for a while." Maury wished them luck and they were given their cue to exit the stage.
Backstage, Maggie was beaming and practically jumping up and down. "Finally," she exclaimed "And it only took 7 years!" Scully hugged her mom with one arm because she refused to let go of Mulder's hand for one second. Soon they gathered their things and left the studio.

The next day, Mulder and Scully were seated in the airport heading for home. They were holding hands and talking. "I'm curious Mulder, why did you go through all this? Why couldn't you just tell me in DC?" Scully asked. "I like to be original," He replied "I bet no one has ever confessed their love for you on a cheesy day time talk show." Scully giggled. "Well you've got me there but what if someone in DC sees it. We'll never hear the end of it, Skinner will be furious, we could be separated from the X-Files..." Scully was now babbling on but Mulder just smiled. She looked at him questioningly. Mulder pulled out his cell phone and dialed a number quickly.
"Hi, Mr. Tapert please...Rob, hi its Mulder... yeah... exactly...number 42...right...Thanks a lot buddy...ok... tell Lucy I said hi...ok... bye."
Scully just stared in wide eyed confusion. "That's was Rob Tapert, he's a friend of mine. He knows people on the production team at Maury, that part of the episode will never see the light of day. He's gonna have them cut it and put in a clip from a previous episode. But I am having them send the original footage to me." Scully shook her head in amazement. "You had that planned as well; you knew I'd have a panic attack, didn't you?"
"Yeah, I figured that you'd freak, its good to have connections." Scully laughed as the boarding call for their flight was called. They got up and walked hand in hand to the gate. "Scully, can I ask you something??" Mulder asked, "Sure" she responded.
"Umm, when have you kissed Skinner, exactly??" Scully blushed furiously
"He gave me something that I really needed so, you know..."
"Holy Crap Scully!!!"
"NOO! Not that! Sicko! It was information on where you were when you lost in the Bermuda Triangle. He broke protocol to get me the information so I was very grateful and didn't know what else to do to express it to I kissed him in the elevator at Hoover." Scully explained hurriedly. "Scully, you little Minx! That gives me a few ideas for when we get back to work" Mulder winked suggestively and Scully swatted his arm as they took their seats.
"Hey Scully?"
"Yes?"
"Is he really a better kisser than me?"
"Yes"
"What???"
THE END!!
TEE HEE! I know, weird way to end it but you know. Just hafta be original.
