Mulder drew in a deep breath of air, he didnt like fighting with Scully. He loved her with all his heart and soul yet she couldnt see that.

"Did you know that I would do absolutely anything for you." he told her.

Scully looked up and frowned.

"I would sail the seven seas, scale the highest mountain, fight starving lions for you if you wanted me to."

Scully smiled, she didnt want Mulder to do any of that.

"I want you to hold me when im cold or upset, I want you to kiss me when you come home from work and tell me that you love me everyday." she cried. "I need you stay with me and never leave."

Mulder nodded, he could do that.

"I love you." he whispered. "More than you will ever know."

Scully wasnt so sure, she could tell Mulder was being truthful but he wasnt exactly the settling down type of guy. As soon as a tall, pretty girl came along he would be converted and she would be forgotten.

"But what-" she began but he interrupted her.

"No girl is going to change my mind, not even if Jennifer Anniston threw herself at me. Hell I would be tempted... but I love you."

Mulder lifted her chin up and looked into her blue eyes, he could see that she was scared but they couldnt apart any longer.

"Skinner's gonna freak when he finds out." she said.

Mulder shrugged.

"It has nothing to do with him, if he wanted you he should of asked you out on a date."

Scully rolled her eyes.

"We still have a few days vacation left...are you going to stay?" he asked.

"Yeah." she replied softly, she had a lot to think about now.

Mulder closed the door behind him and sighed heavily, he had just confessed to his partner of neatly seven years that he loved her and nothing could change the way he felt. Mulder went into his own room and closed the door, he flopped onto the bed and stared at the ceiling.

He hoped he hadnt made a huge mistake, he knew Scully would be frightened at the thought of somebody in the FBI finding out but agents already thought they were up to something. He didnt want to pressure her into a relationship that she was frightened of.

Mulder sighed again.

Scully sat on her own bed with tears coursing down her cheeks, she had wanted a nice peaceful vacation but instead Mulder had just confessed his love for her. Now she didnt mind that of course because she loved him as well, it was just the whole kissing thing and she really didnt want to leave the FBI.

But she could live with Mulder? Could she spend every minute of the rest of her life with him? She could listen to his annoying snoring every night?

He had some very bad habits, but dont we all? She asked herself.

Living with Mulder; she thought. She had dreamt about it for years and now it was finally coming true, it scared her.

2 hours later...

Scully came downstairs and froze at the sight in front of her, Mulder was dancing and singing at the top of his voice to Jessica Simpson's ' I wanna love you forever'.

Scully raised her eyebrows and folded her arms across her chest, she had never heard Mulder sing properly and he was quite good. Mulder sensed that someone was behind him and he spun round, he went red when he saw that it was Scully.

He turned down the radio and cleared his throat.

"I'm just making dinner." he told her.

Scully smiled and walked over to him.

"I didnt know you could sing."

Mulder smiled, she didnt know lots of things about him.

"Well im multi talented." he said with a little smile.

"So what ya cooking?"

"I have no idea."

Scully frowned and then laughed. Maybe being with Mulder wasnt such a bad thing.

"Erm...I thought alot earlier."

Mulder turned around and went back to chopping up vegetables.

"What about?" he asked.

"About us...and our future."

Mulder chopped up a carrot and then looked back at Scully, she smiled at him.

"Im not going to speak to your back Mulder." she said firmly.

He sighed and put down the carrot and the knife, he slowly turned to face Scully.

"I thought that maybe in a few months you could move in."

Mulder frowned, wow; he thought.

"Scully...then people are going to suspect more than us having sex."

Scully shrugged, in a few months time she would quit the FBI and be with Mulder.

"I'm going to resign." she told him.

Mulder's mouth turned from a smile to an O shape. He was speechless.

"You cant resign Scully, I still need you on the x files."

"But Mulder, I doubt that we can work together and be in a relationship. We cant spend 24 hours a day with each other."

"Well what would you do?"

"I could go back to being a doctor." she said with a smile.

Mulder turned his attention back to his vegetables, he wasnt sure what to do.

Life with Scully...working without Scully: he thought.

Life without Scully...work with Scully.

Mulder stabbed a carrot violently. It was not the sort of decision he could make in ten minutes.
