Thanks to Chris Carter for creating such loveable charaters. I only wish they were mine. I have only been a fan of The X-files since May of this year (shocking). I love Mulder and Scully. I know that they love each other too. This is my first attempt at fanfic. All feedback welcome. A GOOD END TO A BAD DAY (1/1) BY MAGGIE I stormed out of Skinner's office, slamming the door behind me. "I'm so pissed off" I mutter to myself silently. I can feel the steam rising from my scalp."They've done it again", I say in an audible voice, giving dirty looks to the other agents as I walk down the hall. I'm so sick of these wild goose chases. Worst of all I blamed Scully for it. She told me this was A hoax, but did I believe her, no. I'm such an asshole. Once again, I leave her in the lion's den to fend for herself. I just don't know how she puts up with me. I really need to clear my head right now.She must hate me. They were trying to decide whether I should be suspended or not. Before they had a chance, I yelled out, "I quit", at the top of my lungs before I walked out. I'm in my car now. It seemed to take an eternity before I got there. "I quit", still ringing in my mind. I'm driving now. Where to?? Who knows. Just away from here. I need to think about what I have said and done. One thing hits me like a ton of bricks, what about Scully? I won't let myself deal with that now and I keep driving. It's been about 3 hours, I'm finally home. The words still ringing in my ears loud and clear, "I quit". I'm now in the darkness and shelter of my apartment. I hear someone moving around as I throw my things to the floor. I draw out my gun and turn on the lights. My gun pointed directly in her face. I put it down with out saying a word. I'm shocked at what I have done. Maybe its the fact that tears are streaming down Scully's cheeks. We are frozen, just staring into each others eyes. My heart starts to ache knowing that I've done this to her. I take the few steps towards her and pull her into my embrace. Her arms go around me tightly. Her head rests on my chest. I marvel at the sensation of having her in my arms. She whispers, "Please don't leave me".She really knows how to tear me apart. Reluctantly I gently push her away form me. I take her hand and guide her to the sofa. We both sit down. Still holding hands, our fingers entwined. I have not said a word. I feel her gaze burn through me. I just sit with my head hanging down, staring at the floor, pondering what to say to her. "Mulder, please talk to me". "I'm sorry Scully", is all I could muster. I look up and meet her eyes. With my fingers I brush a strand of hair from her face. "I don't know what to say", I whisper. "Can I ask you something"? she says. "Anything", I answer. " Would it be that easy? I mean to walk away from the x-files and from me". I put my head in my hands and gather my thoughts. Damn, I had not thought this through at all. I let my anger get the best of me. "Mulder"! Her voice sounding a little annoyed. I look up at her. "I could never leave you Scully". A smile forms on her tired face and she throws her arms around my neck. I crush her against me. To my surprise, I hear her soft voice in my ear, "I love you", she sighs. My body responds to her instantly. "I love you Scully and I want you. I have for a long time". "I'm right here Mulder, take me". THE END _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
