CHAPTER FIVE

A/N: Sorry for the lack of updates…major writer's block. I'm willing to give this fic another go so here is chapter five. Reviews needed.

PS: If you don't like girl/girl situations, then don't read and don't flame. Thanks.

Hannah woke up in the middle of the night, wondering where she was. Then it all came back…she was in the hospital (again) after being abducted (again) and there were men after her.

Why did they want her for their horrible tests? She knew as long as these men existed, she'd never be free. They would take her again and again until there was nothing left of her to take.

She had to do something…she wanted her life back. The only possibility was to leave the country and start a new life somewhere, but there was also the Dana. Even though they were no longer together, she loved Dana…but Dana didn't love her back.

But she still cares for you…you really never gave her a chance to love you. Hannah reminded herself, you rushed things, you expected a lot. Dana was brave enough to tell the people she loved about you and yet you went and dumped her because of your selfish needs. Hannah felt really ashamed now. Oh God Dana…you really do love me. Hannah wanted her back but the question was, would Dana take her back?

Tears blurred in her eyes, threatening to spill over. She hated crying, she saw it as a sign of weakness. She brushed the tears away and reached for her phone. The clock on it read four minutes past midnight. She put it back and tried to fall asleep when the door to her room slowly opened. She lay still, thinking it was a nurse doing the nightly rounds…but she didn't hear the noise of the cart being wheeled into the room. She looked up…the figure moved silently towards the bed and her heart leaped into her mouth.

It was Alex Krycek.

" What do you want?" she whispered.

" You may have escaped now…but you'll never be free." He whispered back, echoing her earlier thoughts. Then he leaned down so that his eyes were boring into hers, " My face will be last thing you'll ever see before you die. I promise you that."

Then he was gone.

Hannah was very quiet the following morning when Skinner visited her. He asked when she could go home and she told him not until she was fully assessed by the doctor. She didn't say anything more until Skinner asked,

" Are you okay?"

" I'm fine…why?"

" You're just quiet that's all,"

" I'm just tired. I never sleep well in hospitals. The noises outside." Hannah lied. After Krycek's visit, she had lain awake all night, planning.

She was going to get her justice after all.

Late the following afternoon, Hannah was allowed to go home. Since she was staying with Walter until she found a new place of her on, he picked her up.

" Could you take me to Dana's? She can drive me home." She asked him and he drove her to Scully's apartment.

She rang the bell and Dana answered, looking surprised but pleased to see her. She let Hannah in, " How are you feeling?"

" I'm okay. We need to talk Dana."

They sat down in the living room and Hannah clasped Dana's hand in hers, " I won't beat around the bush…I'll just say it. I've missed you."

Scully's eyes went wide…she had not expected this. She opened her mouth to reply but Hannah hurried on.

" I've had a lot of time to think about things and I've realised I'm to blame for our break-up…it was my fault. I shouldn't have asked you tell people when you clearly weren't ready for that. I was too selfish…I expected a lot and didn't give you a chance." Hannah squeezed Dana's hand, " Dana, is there any hope for us?"

Dana's eyes suddenly welled with tears. She had missed Hannah a lot…missed feeling the warmth from her while they slept.

" I'm willing to give us another try." Dana told her and before she even knew what was happening, their mouths met for a long, searching kiss. Hannah's hands rested on Dana's waist. She very much wanted to go further…but had to take things slow. She didn't want to mess things up again.

They kissed for several minutes, Hannah's hands buried in Dana's red hair. Her lips travelled down to her throat then back to her lips again. Dana could not help but feel aroused…Hannah's lips had always stirred feelings in her she could describe.

Dana was now lying on the couch with Hannah's body covering hers. Hannah started to undo one of her buttons but hesitated.

She looked into Dana's face and it was the look in her eyes that told her to keep going and so she did. Dana's eyes closed when her blouse was dropped to the floor, followed by her bra. Hannah's warm hands covered her breasts and Dana tried not to moan but couldn't help it. Just as Hannah's mouth descended to them, Dana's cell phone went off.

Her eyes flew open and Hannah groaned, " What a time to call." She groaned, leaning back so Dana could sit up.

It it's Mulder, I'll kill him. Scully thought crossly.
