Scully's Apartment
10:00 am
March 2, 2020
Dana Scully was in her apartment. Her Brother and his wife had come over
to help her pack. Aurora, One of her nieces was in her room packing boxes. Dana
who is this? Aurora yelled from inside Scully's closet. Scully walked into the
bedroom and walked over to Aurora. Aurora held up a picture of Mulder. Scully
looked at the picture longingly.
"Someone I used to know."
"Was
it a boyfriend.
" No, Aurora he wasn't a boyfriend."
Aurora just
looked up at Scully.
"Please tell me about him."
Scully sat down
on the side of the bed.
"His name was Fox Mulder. We worked in the FBI
together."
Aurora looked surprised. "
"You worked in the FBI?"
"Yes, a long time ago before you where born. I worked on a project
called The X Files. We investigated paranormal phenomenon. I was assigned to The
X Files in 1991. He was always a true gentleman to me. After a few years we
gained each other's trust. I loved him with all the passion in the
world."
Aurora just looked confused.
"Why didn't you ever go out
with him?"
" Our relationship wasn't romantic. We couldn't do anything
romantic. We where bound by or jobs. Our relationship was business. We where
partners."
"Did you want to go out with him?"
"At first, the first
time I saw him I though he was handsome. After a while I got to know him. He
because my best friend I told him everything. He was the only one I could trust.
When ever it started getting romantic something would happen. We almost kissed
once. I told him I was leaving the bureau. I tried not to see the hurt in his
eyes, all I could do was walk away. He came after me telling me that he cared
about me. I was his one and only. We almost kissed that night but it was fated.
He told me he loved me once but I don't know how sincere he was. He was on a lot
of drugs. I have often wondered how much he really cared about me. We continued
our investigations for a while after that but soon they detearated. When they
closed The X Files for good we promised that we would never loose contact. Out
hearts would always be together and we could never be torn apart."
"What
happened Auntie Scully?"
"We kept in contact for a while but eventually
we lost contact I moved here and eventually the letters stopped
coming."
"Do you ever wonder about him?"
Scully looked down at
Aurora who was holding the picture.
"I wonder every day about him. I
wonder what could have happened if we would have stayed together. I wonder where
he is. I wonder about that I love you. Never let someone like that get away
Aurora. If you find someone you love don't let them get away."
Scully's
thoughts drifted off to places and time that they where together. Suddenly,
Scully got up from the edge of the bed and walked out of the room. Walking out
of the door, Scully was almost in a daze. She got into her car.
"Maybe,
someone will know where he has gone" Scully thought as she drove.
Scully
pulled up to Mulder's old apartment. Her heart raced as the elevator rose to
Mulder's floor. Walking down his hall she could almost see him pleading with her
to stay with the bureau. When she got to apartment 42 her heart sank.
"What am I don't here? What am I hoping for?" she though.
She
saw herself knocking on his door. From the other side she could hear the lock.
The door opened and she saw Mulder standing there
stunned.
"Scully?"
Scully just broke down into tears and hugged
him tightly. His arms grasped around her as they had done so many times
before.
"I love you" Scully whispered.
Mulder could not believe
that after all theses years his one true love had come back.
"I've missed
you" Mulder whispered back
"promise you'll never leave me
again"
"you and me forever" Mulder said smiling
