The alarm went off, and a groggy Mulder flipped over to turn it off. Five more minutes, he thought to himself. He shifted a bit and realized that Scully was asleep on top of him.
After Scully and the rest were released from the hospital, they all returned to their normal lives. But when Mulder tried to get his apparentment back, he saw, with a bit of sadness, that it had been rented out to someone else. Thankfully though, he had successfully lived in Scully's apartment many times before, so they decided to move in together. "It'll give us a chance to... you know... become...," He remembered Scully saying a while back, before blushing a bit.
"Boyfriend and Girlfriend?" Mulder answered with. God, it was hard enough getting used to just calling her by her first name, now he has to officially refer to him as his girlfriend. Even though it was easy to fall into a relationship with her, it's hard to communicate it in words. He thought it was probably because they had something close to this type of relationship before, except there wasn't any kissing.
Well, how close is he? the CSM said with impatience.
Actually sir, it's very hard to tell... they seem to have actually stopped him from transforming.
That's impossible, that virus is unstoppable without that vaccine!
Well, actually. There is a shred of hope... I mean, we referenced a magazine that these three men, known as the Lone Gunmen, create, there was something interesting in their issue that was the date of a week after Scully's child was born.
What about it!
Well, they have a story mentioning that Mulder got to Scully without getting specific information from the only person who had put Scully in that secluded area in the first place. There is a quote also, Mulder had said, "There was a light, and I followed it."
You mean, he found the location like the others did?
Yes.
... The CSM just stood there, thinking about what would happen next. He then walked up to a tank and put his hand on it. Inside, there was a man floating in some weird fluid. There was a tube down the man's throat to help him breathe, and two stickers in his forehead with wires judding out of it. There were others in the same conditions.
"I'm sorry my son," The CSM said, "But no matter how much I wish I didn't have too, we have to complete your transformation. You are a leader after all."
It turns out he was speaking to the man in the tank... Fox Mulder and the rest of the group, even oddly skinner and kersh,all floating in suspended animation. The CSM dropped his cigarette on the floor, stepping on it before walking away.

Mulder yawned, and finally decided to get up. Then he realized he was naked, and that Scully that was asleep on top of her was as such as well. He blinked a few times, realizing that he had a major migraine. Then everything had come back to him...
"Mmm... Dana?" He said to the air. It made her stir a bit.
"Five more minutes, mother." She said back. She was still completely asleep.
"Um... Scully?"
One eye opened and she looked up at him, "What is it, Fox?"
He chuckled, "You do realize that it's 3 in the afternoon, right?"
She giggled back at him, "Well then, do you realize that we were up late last night?" Her giggle turned into a laugh, "You know..."
"Yep, past the hangover there was a night of some good lovin'." He finally came out and said.
"Oh you too? I knew it was a bad idea for us to drink up that whole bottle of wine."
He smirked, "I told you that song you hated was a good make out song. But I know how you are, you have to experience it yourself to believe it."
She laughed again. They had a another night of celebration since the day before they had given a language version of the finger to the FBI at their offer of coming back. Soon after they had left the building, they had encountered a group of people who were standing outside with signs saying, "Mulder and Scully are the best!" and other things like that. It turns out the people were the many people they have helped during their 7 years in the X-files, and the group was led by the man who could control the weather with his emotions and his wife and 2 year old child.
Scully stretched a bit in the bed, "I can't believe that was our first time too... we acted like it was so natural."
"Well, the naked pretzel is in itself a natural act..."
She play-punched him in the stomach and then wrapped her arms around him.
"That's not what I meant."
He went on, "There is also the fact that we have a child... a couple with a child that is of their genetics, and before them having sex. isn't it usually the other way around?" he said, chuckling at his own joke.
He started to stroke her hair and then kissed the top of their head, "Either way, it was still preeetttyy amazing."
The phone then rang, dragging them out of their little cloud nine, and Mulder picked it up. On the other end, it was a voice.
"You think that when you woke up everything was all right? Well, you're wrong."
