Summary : Mulder reflects. **My Partner, My Friend, My Lover** My partner is strong, My friend has weaknesses. My lover has a perfect blend of both. My partner uses their strengths to the fullest extent. My friend reveals their weaknesses to those they trust the most. My lover tries to cover their weaknesses with their strengths. My partner is intelligent, my friend is witty. My lover is a comical mix of both. My partner can piece together the hardest of puzzels. My friend has a very appealing, dry wit. My lover can send me into stiches on the floor if they so desired. My partner is calm and collected, my friend is gentle and caring. My lover can relax me and reasure me completely. My partner remains calm in a shoot-out and collected when I lay bleeding on the floor. My friend holds me gently when I am hurt and cares for me when I need to be cared for. My lover's presence in a room relaxes me completely. My partner is my guardian, my friend is the best. My lover was heaven-sent. My partner keeps me from getting myself killed. My friend is the best I have ever had. My lover was sent from heaven to keep me sane and human. My partner, my friend and my lover. All sent to guard me, care for me, talk to me, and help me. All this and more crammed into a little woman who knock me on my ass at any given time, on any given day. A little woman who I am lucky to work with, be friends with and to love. And people say I like my women tall, dark and easy. Well, they're wrong. I like my women short, red, and fiesty. Dana Scully being the perfect example. ************END********* Thank you to my beta-readers Enigmatic_Guadalupe and Beth M. feedback to dss@magnus.net
