(70 character line) *** Electricity, eye to eye Hey do I know you? I can't speak Stripped my senses on the spot I've never been defenseless I can't even make sense of this You speak and I don't hear a word What would happen if we kissed? Would your tongue slip past my lips? Would you run away? Would you stay? Or would I melt into you? Mouth to mouth, lust to lust Spontaneously combust The room is spinning out of control You act like you didn't notice, brushed my hand Forbidden fruit, ring on my finger Your such a moral moral man Would you throw it away? A question Will I pretend I'm innocent? What would happen if we kissed? Would your tongue slip past my lips? Would you run away? Would you stay? Or would I melt into you? Mouth to mouth, lust to lust Spontaneously combust What would happen if we kissed? I struggle with myself again Quickly the walls are crumbling Don't know if I can turn away What would happen if we kissed? Would your tongue slip past my lips? Would you run away? Would you stay? Or would I melt into you? Mouth to mouth Would your tongue slip past my lips? Would you run away? Would you stay? Or would I melt into you? Mouth to mouth If we kissed If we kissed -Meredith Brooks- *** The tall handsome man stared at his petite red-headed partner. Her strong intense crystal azure eyes staring at him, sent shivers down his fragile spine. He watched emotions flow openly through her eyes, lust, love, pain, fear. He had a thought about what she was thinking but shook it away. He wondered if she would ever know what he had been thinking of a few seconds before. He wondered how her lips would taste. How her tongue would play with his. He wondered if she would kiss him back, or reject him. If she would stare at him in shock and request a transfer, or pounce on him and demand him to kiss her again. Would the sinister forces of the government kill him or her due to the kiss, or would they not care. Would they move in together, or would things remain the same after the kiss. If he looked at her the next day would her eyes deny that he had ever kissed her, or would they ask for more. Would she love him like he loved her. He wanted to have her, to possess her, to keep her with him for the rest of his life. It sounds selfish, but he couldn't imagine life before her. She meant more to him then the sun rising everyday. She didn't feel the same though, that's why he contented himself with thoughts of how their first kiss would be if they ever did kiss. Would she be salty, or sweet. Would she love him for who he was and not ask him to change? He wondered, as he stared at her in his apartment. They had just finished a case and Fox Mulder was staring at her. She wondered what he was thinking about. She remembered when she had been close to claiming those pouty lips of his. The luscious thick, sexy lips of her partner. It wasn't meant to be though, or was it. What would happen if they tried again. What would happen if their lips did touch, and they claimed each other as a lover for the first time. She wondered. Does he ever think about the near kiss? Does he wonder what it would be like to touch my lips, and nibble at them. Does he think about the time when she had almost kissed a man impersonating him. Does he wonder? Does he care? He stared at her almost defiantly. She wondered if she kissed him if it would break her heart when he rejected her. Would they still argue, or never fight again. Would she cry at nights when he left her alone, or would he stay with her forever. She remembered how they had fallen into this stare. They were fighting over the events of the last case. He finally started to stare at her, anger, then an emotion she couldn't define took over his face. Now she was wondering if the same had transpired with her. She unconsciously licked her lips in front of him. She saw the startled expression come over him then a knowing look. Mulder stared at her. It wasn't his imagination that Scully had just licked her lips. He knew now that she had been thinking of him. How could he have not noticed with the open eyes, that he could look so freely into. She had let her walls down, this was his chance. Before he could move on his desires, he saw the icy stare return to his eyes. She had put on the facade again. It didn't matter to him though. He had seen through her, knew her heart, and understood the passion boiling inside of her threatening to burst out. Scully threw punches at herself in her mind. Why had she let her guard down, Mulder knew everything. She remembered the sly, knowing expression he had given her. He knew her unpartnerlike thoughts. He knew the lust she hid. She knew his but she had never shown him hers. She thought again to herself. It isn't so bad that he knows. Her eyes softened as she continued to look at him. Kiss me, she begged. I'm not going to make the first move, she urged him silently. As if understanding everything going on in her mind he leaned forward and his lips touched hers. No they didn't blow up into a million pieces. No, nobody saw them. They were alone, content, and most of all relieved. They had finally done what they had feared for six years. No, it wasn't a demanding kiss, it was soft, exploring, storing the explorations of each others lips in their memories forever. "Thank you Mulder" Scully whispered when the kiss was over with. Mulder aware of her lips speaking to him only a few millimetres away, touched them softly in reply, realizing it would be the only time he would ever kiss her. He wouldn't have another chance, never again. He couldn't risk her life. He couldn't... End So what do you think? Sequel, no sequel?
