Title: Music5- If you asked me to
Author: Katilina

He was completely drenched in oil and could barely feel Scully's small 
body trying to support him.  She had led him about 50 feet from where he 
was previously laying when there was a second explosion.  They were
both thrown to the ground, Mulder falling on top of Scully while he tried to
shield her.  After a few seconds he rolled off of her.  "Are you O.K.?" he
asked worriedly.  "Mulder, I'm fine.  Are you O.K.?" she asked just as 
worriedly as they gazed into each other's eyes.  "I'm doin' O.K." he said
casually he gaze never leaving hers.  "Listen! I think I hear the helicopter
coming back!" she exclaimed, breaking his powerful gaze.  he sighed
wearily as he gingerly stood up.  He held out his hand to help her up.  As
soon as she put weight on her left leg she cried out in pain and fell back
down to the ground.  "Scully!" he exclaimed falling to his knees by her 
side.  "Dammit!  I think I must have broken it!" she said, her voice lace in
pain.  Mulder looked over to where the helicopter was landing about 50 
yards away.  He gently scooped her into his arms and carried her over to 
the helicopter, trying to be as careful as possible not to injure her leg any
more.  The pilot saw that Scully was obviously hurt ran over and opened 
the door.  "WHAT HAPPENED?" he yelled over the loud whirring of the
helicopter blades.  "SHE THINKS SHE BROKE HER LEG! WE HAVE TO
TAKE HER TO THE HOSPITAL!" Mulder yelled back as he set her down
in the copter and propped up her leg.  He then jumped inside and fastened
his seatbelt as the pilot ran back around to the cockpit of the copter.  "It
will be about a 40 minute ride.  There is some pain medication in the first
aid box, you can take some of that," the pilot said as he took off.  Mulder
reached in back and opened up the first aid box and grabbed the two little
pills.  He handed them to Scully who quickly downed the pills and five 
minutes later was asleep.  He donned the earphones and immediately
heard the voice of Celine Dion singing a song.

--Used to be that I believed in something
Used to be that I believed in love
Its been a long time since I've had that feeling
I could love someone
I could trust someone
I said I'd never let nobody near my heart again darlin'
I said I'd never let nobody in---


*I haven't let anyone in, except for Scully, she's the only one I trust and the
only one I could ever love* he thought to himself as he listened to the 
song.

--But if you asked me to
I just might change my mind
And let you in my life, forever
If you asked me to
I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever
If you asked me to
If you asked me to--

*I would do anything Scully ever asked, even give my own life if she
needed it.  I've already given my heart, all she has to do is accept it* he
thought, looking over at his beautiful partner.

--Somehow ever since I've been around you
Can't go back to being on my own
Can't help feeling darlin since I've found you
That I've found my home
That I'm finally home
I said I'd never let nobody get too close to me darling
I said I needed, needed to be free--

*That is how I feel.  Whenever I'm around her I feeling completely at ease,
completely comfortable, completely home.  I was so alone before she was 
my partner, I don't think I could do that again* he thought, still looking at
Scully as she shifted slightly in her seat.

--(But if you asked me too...)
Ask me to, I will give my world to you baby
I need you now
Ask me to, I'll do anything for you baby, for you baby
If you asked me to
I'd let you in my life forever
If you asked me to...--

He sighed as he looked over at his partner feeling an intense longing just
to hold her close.  He pushed the feelings down inside, saving them for 
not a maybe but for a definitely.  For someday when he could love her
freely and openly as she could love him.
