… Here.

They awoke abruptly the next morning. Scully was shocked to see that she was on her couch… and on top of Mulder. She toppled onto the floor and then as she hit her head on the coffee table the memories of the night before came back into memory. She smiled at the thought of how Mulder acted. It was endearing, very endearing.

"Scully, hey… you alright?" Scully rubbed her head where she had hid it, and Mulder pulled her up.

"Yeah I'm fine." Scully stretched. "Oh, Mulder… It's well we should get ready for work. Uhm… you have a pair of work clothes in the top drawer of my dresser and shoes in the closet. I'm going to take a shower. Ew I reek of Chinese take out." She ran into the bathroom where she started the shower. Unannounced, Mulder, for a brief moment walked in. He then snuck out seconds later just as quiet as he entered.

As Scully grabbed her towel and jumped out of the shower, she grinned at what she saw on the bathroom mirror. "I love you too!" She yelled from the bathroom as she wrapped her head in a towel and went into the bedroom to change.

Mulder was brewing coffee and making toast and by the time Scully was done changing it was done. She wanted to grab a bite or maybe even a sip of her coffee but she had to dry her hair. She dried it out flat and emerged once again from the bathroom.

"I filled your mug with coffee." Mulder told Scully as she grabbed her coat and his. She headed for him, giving him a kiss on the cheek and handing him his coat.

"Thank you. Hah, maybe now I won't run into loser men at work because I spill coffee all over myself."

"Yeah…" Mulder massaged his neck as they walked out the door.

When they were in the car it was silent… until Scully broke the silence with another comment about the day before.

"You know Mulder… It's almost as if he planned it. It's like he was like that on purpose."

"You don't say…" Mulder laughed.

While walking into the FBI Headquarters Mulder had his hand on Scully's lower back and once they went up the elevator to the floor where the A.D.'s office was; they saw other agents there was on that stuck out. He was the agent with the good hair, gorgeous eyes, a beautiful smile, and a repulsing personality. They walked right past him without paying him the slightest attention. Well, except for when Mulder gave him a look. Scully didn't really see the look that he gave him but he knew that Mulder had given him a look. She guessed it to be a disgusted look.
"We're here to see The Assistant Director.: Mulder told his secretary.

"Hello, Fox." She completely ignored Dana's presence and began to bat her eyelashes at the tall man standing in front of her. This made Scully go wild. She understood why Mulder got so protective. He paid no attention to the blonde licking her lips in front of him. "He's actually with someone right now. I'll have him call you down."

"Thanks" He walked off with Scully over to the elevator where once they were alone he grabbed her and kissed her hard on the lips.

"What was that for, Mulder?" She asked him once the elevator door opened to the basement.

"I wasn't able to do that yet today. I love you."

"I love you too." They walked into their office where the phone was already ringing. Scully answered it. "That was Skinner… he wants one of us in his office right now and to bring the O'Leary case file with us. Do you want to go? Or should I?"

"Uhm, you go. I'll uh I'll be here… launching my pencils as usual." Scully laughed as she grabbed the file and walked out of the room. She had a runner in her stocking and decided to look at how bad it was, so when she was right out of the room, she set down her coffee and the file and began to inspect her leg. After seeing that it wasn't too noticeable she grabbed her coffee and walked off to the elevator.

---
"Mulder?" A voice came from the other side of the door. It was a man's voice.

"Hey, Solie." Mulder smiled as Special Agent Frank Solie walked into the room. Apparently Scully had left the file on the floor by the door. When she returned to pick it up she heard voices coming from the slightly ajar door. Two male voices, Mulder's and Solie's. They were speaking politely as if they were old friends and that's odd.

"Anything for a friend. Don't worry about the money." Scully had heard Solie say to Mulder. After hearing this it was clear to her that Mulder had paid Solie to do this to her. She then walked to the elevator and decided she would have to look into this further.

---
"Frohike, it's Scully." Scully was on her cell phone just as she walked out of the A.D.'s office.

"And what do I owe this surprise to?"

"Well, actually…well first turn off that call tracer. I want you to get on your computer and tell me a little about Agent Frank Solie."

"I don't have to get on my computer to tell you about him. He's a good friend of Mulder's. They were actually close while he was in the academy. Why do you ask, Agent Scully?"

"Oh, no reason. I was just wondering. Thank you." As she hung up she got into the elevator and was ready to confront Mulder about this.

She saw that Mulder was all alone at his desk with no other Agents in sight. He sat, with his glasses on, reading over a file. He appeared as if he was thinking hard but all his train of thought was lost as soon as Scully slammed their office door.

"What?" He asked her as she stomped her way over to he was sitting and slammed her hands onto the desk.

"What do you mean 'what'? I actually should be asking you that." He looked at her confused. "What the hell were you thinking, paying an agent to mess with me?"

"Let me explain Scully…" Mulder got up and walked to the front of the desk where Scully was standing with anger infuriating in her eyes.

"No, I'm not going to let you explain! You've been friends with Solie in the academy! You wanted him to get me to go on a date with him so he could mess with my head so you could be there to comfort me! Is that it!? Is it, Mulder?"

"That's right but-" He didn't let her finish he grabbed her shoulders to try to relax her but no prevail; she pushed him off.

"I can't believe you Mulder!" She turned away to hide the anger that was now turning into sadness and the tears falling from her eyes.

"No. Let me finish," He grabbed her wrist, spun her around to face him, and brought her closer. "I needed your attention now! I couldn't wait any longer. I loved you Scully, and you didn't even know! I needed you to know! I couldn't just tell you flat out. I wanted to show you that I don't want any guy to be with you but me. I loved you! Don't be mad at me for the way I chose to tell you!" He saw even more tears flowing from her eyes so he decided to pull her closer and force his lips to hers. As the kiss ended he pulled away and began to wipe her tears. "I love you, Dana Scully."

"I love you too, Fox Mulder." He smiled at her and just as he was about to kiss her she spoke again. "You would pay to get my attention because you love me so much?"

"Yes." He nodded innocently.

"Endearing, Mulder. Very endearing." He kissed her; they just stayed there in the silence making out until one of them needed a breath of air. It was perfect. They knew that this is how it should be, and how it would be for the rest of their lives. It was simply perfect.

Review, please. That's all for this story I think. School just started today and it was a rush. I swear my high school is definitely the biggest in all of western Pennsylvania, and how about I was wearing strappy high heel sandals. It's so huge. I had to walk everywhere! Stupid renovations making my school gigantic. How about I don't even think I can open my locker? I got in on like the 22nd try!

My sister got her license… so I've been to the mall every day since then basically. While walking through some stores I saw these coats. I like to call these coats g-woman coats, FBI woman coats, or Scully coats. I want to buy one so bad.
