True Emotions
Ch.3
With Love Comes Pain
"I love you." The most wonderful words that ever slipped from his lips, but yet the words that pierced her heart like the cold blade of a dagger.
In that one moment the entire world disappeared into a heavenly existence, the moment his lips touched hers. Nothing, not wining a million dollars, not a vacation in Hawaii, could beat the way she felt in his arms that day in the park last week. But when he said those words she not only filled with shock but fear, for she knew she loved him too.
It was the kind of fear that she was begging for, an utter excitement, an adrenaline rush, but it was also a fear of what may be to come. Would this wonderful emotion last forever, or would it simply slip away when the summer sun set? These were the questions that ran through her mind as Scully sat in the passenger's seat of the car staring out the window.
Mulder and Scully were out to Pennsylvania for a new case. Scully hadn't been listening to much that Mulder had said back at the office. She only smiled up at him while she starred into his eyes. Mulder had been too distracted pointing to slides to even notice that for the first time in his life Scully's complete attention was on him, or that it was on HIM not what he was saying.
But Scully was very frustrated at the moment. All morning he had been blabbering about vampires and all that and had seemed to totally forget that afternoon in the park last Tuesday. She could hardly believe how much she wanted him to just shut up and kiss her. "No Scully!" she kept thinking as she shook her head, "We have to keep our relationship completely professional!"
Once again Scully did this and for the first time in an hour and a half Mulder spoke up, "Are you okay Scully? You've been really quiet today."
"Um...I'm fine...but I—"Scully said as she decided whether or not to bring it up.
"Yes?..." Mulder said urging her to continue.
"Well about last Tuesday in the park... Well I just thought it would be best if we...well if we just keep our relationship professional."
"Oh...okay then." he said trying to sound optimistic.
"Okay..." Scully said with a nod of her head and then looked out the window.
Mulder shifted his position and his hands on the wheel, pretending again not to mind. For the rest of the trip they said nothing at all. Mulder looked back at her every so often to check her response to the conversation, but other than that the rest of the trip was uneventful until they were nearly there.
It was getting late and Mulder had been driving for nearly four hours, for a moment his eyes slipped closed and the car noisily went over the rumble strip. "Mulder why don't we switch, you've been driving the whole time?" Scully asked.
"No...I'm fine, besides we're almost there." He said.
Scully said nothing more until it happened again, and they went a little farther off the highway, nearly into the grass. "Mulder! Get back on the road!" Scully yelled as she tapped him on the shoulder.
"I'm on the road!" he yelled as soon as he had repositioned the car.
"No you weren't!" she yelled back "Just let me drive Mulder!"
"No! We're almost there it's just inconvenient!" he continued to yell.
"It's inconvenient to drive off the road into a ditch and get killed also!" she also continued yelling.
"Shut up! You just made us miss our exit!" Mulder screamed.
"I made us miss the exit! You're the one with your eyes closed!"
"Damn it Woman!"
"What the hell did you just call me?!"

One hour later
"Just get the hell out of the car!" Mulder screamed at Scully through the windshield as he stood in the motel parking lot.
"Don't tell me we're spending the night in this dump! What are you cheep! They probably have rats the size of cows in this piece of shit they call a motel!"
"So you choose now of all times to get a since of humor!"
"Don't get smart with me mister!" Scully screamed as she got out of the car.
"You sound like my damn mother!"
"I do not!"
"Scully I'm not yelling at you all night!..." he lowered his voice as a person came out of the main lobby, "Let's just get some rooms."
"Okay! Fine! Whatever!"
They walked into the main lobby and up to the dirty front desk. "TWO rooms, please." Mulder said with an emphasis on the two.
"Married?" the smoking lady said at behind the desk.
"NO!" both Mulder and Scully said as they looked angrily at each other and grabbed the keys.

12:56am (1/2 hour later)
Suddenly Scully was awoken by gunshots from down the hall. Scully flicked on the light, pulled her gun from it's holster and climbed out of bed and unlocked the door. She quickly made it down the hall where a bunch of people were surrounding a body. Before she could make it through the small crowd she heard them talking.
"It's an FBI man!" one said.
"Are you a cop?" another asked, "This guys from the FBI, see this is his badge."
Scully's heart dropped.
"Everybody clear out!" Scully could hear from behind her. "This man is not an FBI agent, I am.... just go back to your rooms so my partner and I can straighten this out."
* * * * *
"Thank God, Mulder!" Scully said as soon as she and Mulder had stepped aside, and she threw her arms around him and continued, "I thought that he was you for a moment."
For a moment he said nothing, just in shock at the sudden embrace. Then he questioned, "What is this? I thought you said you wanted to keep things strictly professional?"
"Why are you being so critical?"
"Well we just spent a whole hour screaming our lungs out at each and now you're all lovey-dovey with me!"
"What—I'm not being lovey-dovey with you!" Scully said trying not to raise her voice again.
"Why the hell do you have to act this way?!"
"Act what way?!"
"Like a little child!"
"I—"she paused and put a hand to her head, this was giving her a headache, "Just—"a hot tear ran down her face, 'Why the hell am I crying?!'
Mulder's voice changed dramatically, "Scully I didn't mean to...I'm sorry... we've both been acting like little children."
"I know—I just can't do this!"
"What can't you do?"
"Look at you without—"
"What?" he said hoping for the right answer.
"Without—never mind! We can't do this!"
"Who says we can't?"
"I do...I don't want to."
"You don't want to do what? This?" he said as he grabbed her and kiss her sweet lips and ran his hands through her hair.
After a moment she paused, "Yes...but I was thinking a little more like this." She said as she gave him a devilish look and kissed him back and wrapped her arms around him. "I love you too Mulder." She whispered in his ear.
"I've been waiting for you to say that." He smiled before he gave her one more kiss.
