~*Part One*~

Scully's apartment
May 8, 1999
11:36, PM

Scully let out a small cry of pain as her body came in contact with the wall. Then she felt him hit her, hard, in the face.
"Shut up" the man said and she obeyed. He kissed her roughly said "I love you", then left.
She sank down to the floor, wanting so badly to call Mulder but her pride prevented it. She got up, wincing at the pain in her shoulder, hip, and face where he abused her. Scully put on a pair of light blue, silk pajamas and curled up in her bed. All she wanted to do was go to sleep and forget her problems for a little while. She finally drifted off to sleep at about 1:30.

X-Files Office

She was hoping that he wouldn't be there, that for some reason he would be late. But he wasn't. Scully looked like hell- a big purple and blue bruise covered her left cheek. She also felt like hell. Two other bruises covered her right shoulder and her right hip where she had been thrown into the wall.
"Morning" Mulder said, without looking up. "Sleep in-what the hell happened?"
Her head shot up at his sudden outburst. "Nothing" she replied, "I was just trying to get some stuff down from a high shelf and it kinda fell on me" she quickly lied.
"That's a hell of a bruise, Scully. Are you sure you are ok?" he asked, concerned.
"Yes Mulder" she replied.
"You sure?"
"Mulderrr"
"Okay, okay. So what did you do this weekend? Anything fun?"
"Since when do you have an interest in what I do on the weekend?" she asked.
"Well I tried calling Saturday night because I found some new info on this case we're working on and nobody answered. Hot date Scully?" he asked.
"Mulder, that's none of your business!"
"Yes it is, we're bestest buds aren't we?" he said as he put on his puppy-dog face. That look she loved and fell for every time.
"Fine Mulder, yes it had a date."
"Anybody I would know?" he asked, casually. "Its not Frohike is it?"
"No Mulder, its not Frohike. His name is Ted Griffen and I don't think you would know him."
'What the hell kind of name is Ted?' he thought to himself. He was extremely jealous of this man. This Ted guy got to hold her in his arms and kiss her and love her. Although he did get the opportunity to kiss her, it wasn't really her. He even told her he loved her but she thought he was too drugged to know what he was talking about.
"So what does he look like?" he asked, curious about the man who stole his beautiful partner from him.
"Mulder I can't believe you! Can't I just come to work and work? I mean do you have to know about everything that goes on in my life? There are some things I'm not comfortable talking about with you even if you are my best friend so can you please just back off?" she asked, pissed because he was asking her all these questions. "Are you going to go to the Lone Gunmen and ask them to pull up everything they can find on him?"
"Well maybe I should, that's what you did when you met Diana!" he shot back, angry at what she had said to him.
"Well Mulder, at least I don't go off and shag any person we meet on a case."
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Mulder asked her, even more mad now.
"It means that while you go and trust somebody you haven't even seen in god knows how many years you don't even tell me anything about her. You just run off with her and Bambi and all your other girlfriends, who I might add you didn't even know for 3 days. Oh who cares about Scully as long as I get laid. Well Mulder I didn't ask you anything about those women so please just leave me alone."
"Well hey, you know what I'm surprised at?"
All Scully did was stare at him, daring him to speak.
"I'm surprised 'The Ice Queen' even has a boyfriend!"
That was too far. He had stepped way over the line with that one. He watched her, painfully as a single tear rolled down her porcelain face from her deep, blue eye.
"Scully I-" he began but she just held up a handand walked out the door. Mulder stood, stunned at what he said and how he could never take it back.
Scully had practically ran to her car and once she got home started to cry her eyes out.
'How could he say that to me?' she thought as she sobbed. 'He's right, the best I can do is a guy who hits me.' She went in the bathroom and washed her face to rid her face of the smeared make up. As she took off her work clothes and put on sweat pants and a tee-shirt she almost fell from shock as she realized the horrible truth. 'I love Mulder. But how can I after all he said to me?' She thought as she lay down in her bed. She was so tired, all she wanted to do was go to bed and be at peace for a while. 'I pick great times to realize things' she thought silently. 'But now it's certain he doesn't love me back.' She winced accidently rolled onto her injured side. Scully finally went to sleep, only to dream about marrying Mulder and having a family but her peaceful dream was interrupted by Ted, hitting her and killing her in her now, nightmare. She woke up drenched in sweat and remembering that she had a date with Ted that night.
