TheXPig@xfilesfan.com -------------------------- You are the flame in my heart You light my way in the dark You are the ultimate star You lift me from up above Your unconditional love Takes me to paradise I belong to you And you You belong to me too ----- "I Belong To You" by Lenny Kravitz ---------------- I can't believe how angry you are. You, the believer, Mr "Trust Everyone," who runs off on a moment's notice. You are mad at me for ditching you. Why won't you accept that I believed that he might have held the answer to everything. He was known enough in the past to destroy the world, why not try to save it. But no, you don't believe me at all. Why? I wish you would quit trying to protect me, Mulder. I am an adult, an FBI agent, and perfectly capable of taking care of myself. All I want to do is prove myself to the world, to the bad guys. But mostly, I want to prove myself to you, prove myself worthy to be your partner. Why can't you understand that? You're upset with me, I can see that. You think I should be better than you. You think that I shouldn't have been swayed by that black-lunged son of a bitch. Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I am human. And yes, Mulder, I was afraid for my life. But I felt I could serve the greater good this way. Why can't you trust me? That's all that I ask of you. That's all that I've ever asked. I told you long ago that I trusted you, yet you can't seem to return the favor. I know that he left you for dead, he admitted it. And I know now, beyond a doubt, that he is the only reason I survived my abduction, he told me. I know, you want to know why I believe him. Well, Mulder, I don't know why, but I do. Why can't you see that I love you? I did this to show you how much. But your eyes are closed, your ears deaf to my pleas. You seek only to condemn me for my perceived betrayal. I don't know what to do to make you hear me. I need you and I need your help. Please, won't you just look. Why can't I tell you this? ----- End "I've stood here before Inside the pouring rain. With the world turning circles Running 'round my brain." The X-Pig AIM: thexpig
