As Mulder sad down in his apartment his thoughts traced back to only one thing, Scully. Ages Mulder spent trying so sieve her out of his head and when he finally did he closed his eyes, and fell asleep. Mulder awoke to a bang on the door, at two in the morning. He stumbled to his feet and opened the door. To his surprise there in the doorway, stood a puffy red eyed Scully.
"What's wrong Scully, what happened?" Mulder asked whilst ushering Scully inside. Scully emerged into the room and went over and sat on Mulders bed, his heart skipped a beat to the sudden realisation of Scully sitting on the bed, his bed. He walked over to her, sat down next to her and placed his hand on her shoulder in a comforting "I'm here for you" way. Tears started to well in Scully's eyes and she edged closer to Mulder, placing her head on his chest. Mulder put his arms around her and kissed her on the top of her head in a friendly manner.
"Come on now Scully, I've never seen you like this, what on earth's wrong" Mulder asked in search of a straight answer because he knew Scully was good at avoiding the question.
"I...I...I'm just so lonely Mulder. I...I...I just need a friend" Scully retorted, tears strolling down her cheeks, her eyes blood shot red. The tears from Scully dampened Mulders shirt, but he liked it. The most special person in the whole world was crying in his arms sitting on his bed, in his apartment... it was fate. Mulder grabbed Scully's chin and moved it till her eyes were looking into his, his soul. He took his finger and placed it on her cheek wiping away the tears that were glistening on them. He moved his finger and placed his lips where the tears were. The taste of salt permeated his lips he withdrew and peered at the floor in embarrassment.
"W...w...what was that for" Scully enquired sounding rather shocked.
"I'm sorry Scully, it won't happen again" Mulder responded feeling shot down; after all isn't this she wanted. He looked at the door preparing for her to leave when she said.
"I didn't say I didn't like it" Scully replied with half a smile on her face.
