Thank god it's Friday. I won't have to face Mulder for two days. It's been a week since the little FBI get-together and it's been a living nightmare. Of course we didn't speak of want was said but there is something that is different in our relationship. Now I always worry about what I'm gonna say or if I should say something to break the silence. It's hard to explain.
I have just finished dinner. I flick through the channels to see what's on. Nothing much. So I settle on watching the Lifetime channel. As Mulder would say "the chick flick channel". I have seen this movie before. It's about these two girls that have problems with anorexia and bulimia. It's a good movie but I have seen it about three times already. Can't they play any new movies.

"Hello." I say into the phone. I put the movie on mute.
"Hey Scully" Mulder says on the other end of the phone.
"Um Scully, I just wanted to remind you of the meeting we have with Skinner on Monday morning." He says.
"Yes. I know Mulder. You told me before I left." I say a little sarcastically.
"Oh. I forgot. Um Scully, are you feeling alright. You just been, I don't know, kind of distant the past week." Oh, like you wouldn't know, I say in my head.
"I'm fine."
"When you say your fine, you don't mean it." Oh, now his an expert on how I feel!
"I'm prefect. Okay Mulder. Um I have to go." I say into the phone pissed off. Then I hang the phone up and put it back on it cradle.
I put the sound back on the televison. Then I realize that I'm still in my work clothes. I get up and walk into my bedroom, to my closet. I put on a pair of gym shorts and a tank top. Then I go to my draw and get a pair of clean socks.
I walk out of the bedroom and go to the kitchen for a glass of water. Water in hand, I walk back to the couch and resume with watching TV. But now a new movie is playing. "The Object of My Affection" just started. I love this movie but I always cry when the guy doesn't want to be with her. It just breaks my heart cause she can't help who she has feeling for. Even if it's her best friend.
A commercial comes on 20 minutes into the movie. I get up and grab my empty glass and walk to the kitchen. I place the cup in the sink then move to the cabinet for a snack so I have something to pick on while I watch the movie.
knock, knock, knock
I close the cabinet and walk to the door. I open the door but made the mistake of not looking through the peek hole.
"Hi" I say.
"Why did you hang up on me?" Mulder says walking in without being invited in. Sure Mulder! Come right on in!
"Why'd you come here Mulder?" I say walking it to the kitchen. He follows a couple steps behind me.
"Because your not fine Scully." Mulder says. Or I say Dr.Phil Jr. I turn to look at him and give if the "don't fuck with me" look.
"Your mad at me."
I make the mistake of looking into his eyes. He knows. He knows what this is all about. When I have the strength to pull my eyes away from his I turn around and walk towards the bathroom. I feel him right behind me so I pick up my pace a little. I get to the bathroom and shut the door before he can stop me but I don't lock the door. Just for some reason locking the door seems too final. I seat on the toilet seat and listen to Mulder's breathing coming from the other side of the door.
"I wouldn't be able to do it." Comes from the other side of the door, a little muffled.
"What are you talking about?"
"You know." He whispers. " It will never be just sex Scully... Well, at least not for me."
"Do you know what you saying?" I say with my eyes watering.
"Yes. I want to be with you." He says. Did he just say what I think he said.
"Why would you want to be with me?"
" Why? Is that too hard to believe?"
"We are, um, different. We have different believes." Why am I saying this! I want to be with him.
"That's why we belong together. You're my other half... your everything I'm not. You're the piece of me that's missing."
By now I'm crying. I need to see his face. I stand up and walk the couple steps to the door. Not caring what I look like, I open the door slowly. He stands there with his hands to his side. Looking a little nervous and embarrassed. I walk close to him. I reach up and place my hands on his cheeks. His eyes focus on mine but seem far away. I lean up. Placing my lips on his only for a second then break apart to look into his eyes again. This time I can see him. Before I can say anything he kisses me. When the need of air forces us to part I speak.
"Make love to me Mulder."
Okay, this isn't the best piece I have ever made but I worked hard on finding away to have them together. The end was a little cheesy and I debated on putting the "make love to me" thing in but I said what the hell and did it. I would really love to have some reviews cause I would love to see what you think cause I don't think this is very good but I hope you all enjoyed it.
