Mulder's apartment
May 10, 1999
6:43 PM
Earlier Mulder couldn't even work because he was so guilty. He wanted to go back in time and take back everything he had said to her that day.
He couldn't get the painful look of hurt in her eyes out of his head. After all the times she saved his ass he went and called her, to her face, 'the Ice Queen'. And her could never take it back. Mulder wanted to call her or go over to her place to apologize so many times but he knew he wouldn't be welcome.
Sure the things she has about Diana and Bambi were bad, but what he said was even worse. Each time he played the scene in his head it made him want to beat himself up more.
But who was this Ted guy? Did he treat her right? He could only hope that that nasty bruise on her face was what she said it was from. If Mulder found out that Ted had been hitting Scully he would kill him. Well maybe not kill him, just beat the crap out of him and let him see how Scully felt.
He had been so scared that day when he saw her, lying on his floor, motionless, her blood everywhere. But then she was alive. And she was clinging to him. Holding on for dear life.
His mind wandered to Pagent's words: "In my story, I wrote that Agent Scully falls in love. But that is impossible, Agent Scully is already in love."
Mulder had wished that person was himself, but she had proved that it wasn't him earlier.
Sighing, Mulder looked at his watch. 7:32. He decided to order Chinese while thinking of a plan to get Scully back. The only problem was he didn't have the slightest idea on what to do. He really hoped she was ok.

She looked through the peephole, hoping that it wouldn't be Ted. But, of course, it was.
Taking a deep breath she opened the door.
"Um hi" he said as he handed her a bouquet of flowers. "These are for you."
"Thanks" she said, hoping tonight wouldn't end up like Saturday night.
She let him in as he noticed the bruise on her face. He winced.
"Um I'm really sorry about that. Sometimes after a long day I just wanna relax you know? Then I was late and you asked me all those questions and I just lost it. I'm really sorry" he added and kissed her softly.
She smiled, not believing him, and said "Dinner will be ready in a couple of minutes, make your self at home."
After dinner they sat on the couch, sipping white wine.
"Mulder and I had a fight today," she said quietly and her eyes widened in his response.
"Jesus Christ, can't you go one day without talking about work or this Mulder guy?" he asked.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
"It means that I think you are too obsessed with work and Mulder, whoever the hell he is. And if your gonna be like this I don't want you seeing him anymore."
"What? You can't control my life. I'm entitled to talk to or see or do whatever the hell I want to do!" She shot back.
"Well it's not much of a life to control even if I was contro-
"Get out." She told him firmly.

Mulder had made up his mind just to go over to her place, apologize and tell her how he felt about her, if he had the guts. But he'd find out when he got there. Hopefully, she would be alone.
He grabbed his jacket and keys and headed out the door.
As he was driving over, he tried to clear his thoughts and think about one thing at a time. But his mind kept on switching back to that summer night in his hallway. He had been so close. But that goddamn bee screwed everything up.
Mulder got to her apartment and was about to knock on the door but stopped when he heard yelling. He listened closely to hear what was going on.
Scully's apartment

"You little bitch!" He yelled as he shoved her to the floor. "Never ever interrupt me!" He said and kicked her in her stomach, hard. She groaned in pain.
Suddenly her door came down and Mulder ran in her apartment. The first thing he saw was Scully, on the floor, clutching her stomach.
He found Ted and beat the shit out of him (Not literally but you know what I mean). Mulder handcuffed Ted and kicked him out of the apartment.
He went back to the living room to find Scully sleeping on her couch. He picked her up gently and she woke up as he carried her to her bedroom.
"Thank you Mulder" she said weakly.
"Shh, I'm so sorry, Scully. About everything, I didn't mean to call you that. I couldn't stop thinking about you all day. And I'll understand if you don't forgive me."
He put her down on her bed then left to make some tea. While he was gone she put her pajamas on and sat down with him as he returned with two steaming mugs.
"Really, thank you Mulder. I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't come here." She said with a weak smile.
He put his tea down and kissed the top of her head
"Your welcome, but I don't feel like I should be getting thanked after what I called you today."
"Um we were both pretty upset, I didn't mean what I said either."
"Well that's good because if you did mean it I would have to kick your ass," he said with a smile
She punched him on the shoulder and he pulled her back on the bed and started to tickle her.
"Hey!" she said and jumped on top of him.
They continued to wrestle and ended up on the floor. Scully on top of Mulder.
Slowly they inched towards each other. Finally, their lips met. It was a perfect kiss. Long, warm, gentle, but passionate. Everything in their lives seemed unimportant while kissed.
They pulled apart and eyes locked. Blue met hazel.
"Mulder, we shouldn't," Scully said.
He kissed her again and this time she couldn't refuse. They made out like teenagers in the back of a car. He took her shirt off and gasped when he saw the bruises that covered her body.
"Scully how in gods name could you wrestle me when you were like this?"
"You know what Mulder? I don't know and I don't care." She said seductively.
He opened his mouth to reply but was met with a kiss.
"I love you Dana," he said and kissed her again.
"I love you too Mul- er Fox, am I allowed to call you Fox now?" she asked.
"You can do anything you want," he said and she smiled.
"Well now what," she said.
They both eyed the bed and looked back at each other and smiled.
