Complete (1/1) NC-17TITLE: Complete AUTHOR: Maidenjedi RATING: NC-17 ARCHIVE: Yep. Run with it, baby. SPOILERS: all things, Sein und Zeit DISCLAIMER: I just don't have the willpower to leave these characters to the hands of CC and 1013. So, I give you this tribute, which is what fanfic is really all about anyway. SUMMARY: Between the couch and Mulder's bedroom. Need I say more? AUTHORS NOTES: This isn't a smut-biscuit. More like a smut microbe! I gave in. I can't believe I gave in. Here is this fanficker's version of what happened in Mulder's apartment between falling asleep on the couch and dressing in Mulder's bedroom. Every shipper author out there has done it, and I've suddenly run out of Requiem-inspired ideas. Dedicated to...well...to S, with the hope that this smut lives up to his standards. X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X She didn't want to get up from where she lay on the couch and go home. It was as simple as that. But few things are truly simple. His apartment was colder than she remembered it being even in January. But then, she'd spent that night holding him close, in hopes of chasing away demons. Tonight she was merely huddled under a blanket on his leather couch, and he was.... Where was Mulder, anyway? Scully sat up, rubbing her eyes as she did so, and looked around the darkened room. Mulder wasn't in here, and judging from the silence he wasn't in the kitchen either. That left one possibility. The bedroom. Scully decided that she really didn't want to stay on his couch all night. It may have been chilly in the room, but her hair was sticking to the back of her neck where she had sweated because of the leather. Her joints ached for a bed, any bed. And there was one, not twenty feet away. Where Mulder lay. Sleeping. Scully sighed. Debating the issue would get her nowhere, and besides, they had had to share a bed on a few occasions over the years. She had held him close while he slept more than once, and they'd survived it. It didn't matter what she fantasized about when she did it. She could ignore it. Couldn't she? Of course. Scully pushed off the Navajo blanket, and padded into Mulder's room, careful not to make noise. Sure enough, he was sound asleep, snoring lightly and prone on top of his sheets. Scully could see in the dark that he was wearing boxers, but that was all. A shiver ran up her back. *away with that, dana scully. to bed, to sleep* She took off her jacket and let it fall to the ground. Fatigue engulfed her, reminding her what a long couple of days it had been, with Daniel's reappearance and Colleen's advice. And not to mention her experience in the Buddhist chapel. But Scully didn't want to think about any of that, didn't want to think of anything at all. If she thought, she would fantasize, and if she did that, she would either have to go home or suck it up on the couch. And she didn't want to leave this room. She carefully crawled into bed next to Mulder, settling in under the blankets made warm by his presence. *a girl could get used to this* She lay on her side, her back to Mulder, and was dozing off when she heard her name. "Scully?" It was the groggy, middle-of-the-night voice that Scully rarely heard from Mulder. She wasn't sure if he was talking in his sleep or had awakened. She lay frozen for a moment, waiting to see what happened next. "Scully, are you alright?" Mulder was awake. Scully rolled over to face him, just as he scooted closer to her. They found themselves nose to nose, and a small laugh escaped Scully's throat. "Did I wake you, Mulder?" She carefully backed away from him as she spoke. "Yeah." A grin crossed Mulder's face. "I'm sorry. I'll go back to the couch." She started to roll out of bed, her mind suddenly reeling with thoughts of what she would want if she stayed in the bed. His hands, his mouth.... "No." He said it softly, a plea for her to not leave. There was so much she wanted to read into that simple word. Why did he not want her getting up? Was he going to take the couch? Did he think it was fine for two friends to share a bed? Did he....want something? Scully laid back down, snuggling her head into the pillow. "Ok. 'Night, Mulder." She tried to be flip, tried to ignore that he was getting closer to her, tried to ignore the arousal she felt in this out-of-character situation. But she failed. "Scully." "Mmm?" "Tonight...." "Don't say anything Mulder. I don't want to talk anymore tonight." "Scully." "Yeah?" "What do you want?" This came out low, so low she almost couldn't hear him, even though his mouth was not three inches from her ear. But it was enough. She wanted so much, and she knew it was going to be her decision whether to take it. Did he want the same things? She turned her head and looked him in the eyes, asking him silently. He lay very still, waiting for her answer. She decided to oblige him, suddenly aware that this was indeed the right time. All these years, all the missed opportunities and the doubt, all the signs and all things came to this moment. She wanted to tell him, but couldn't find the words. So she kissed him instead. His eyes opened wide, the surprise of what she was doing not registering at first. But he responded in kind, and the kiss deepened. No chaste New Year's kiss between friends, this kiss. He had waited seven years for this moment, and he was not disappointed. Colors swirled in Scully's mind, and her euphoria was cut short by the need for oxygen. She pulled back, ever so slightly, but Mulder came with her, not ready to let go. Sighing into him, she kissed him harder. When the kiss ended, the formerly platonic friends found themselves wrapped in each other. Scully laughed, pressing her lips to his forehead. "Some kiss." "Yeah." Mulder pulled her closer, kissing her with even more fervor than before. Scully felt him grow hard against her thigh, and her hands clenched his back in response. This was quickly becoming everything she had thought about for seven years, all the times she wanted it to happen, fantasized it would happen. For Mulder, it was no different. He brought his hand up her side, and under her shirt, making her whimper, making her shudder in anticipation. They pulled away from each other just long enough to get Scully's shirt off. Mulder made a conscious effort to slow down long enough to tease her, running his fingertips along her breasts just above her bra. She let out one ragged breath after another, squeezing first his thighs, then giving in and squeezing his cock. That did it for Mulder. He reached down and unbuckled her pants, and somehow she managed to push down his boxers in the same frantic moment. Her pants and panties were gone in moments, and he set to work on her bra. A frustrated curse or two later, she laughed and snapped the clasp in front. In retaliation, Mulder bent down to nibble on her neck, working his way down to her nipples, already peaked and tender. She moaned as he suckled each breast, and, determined not to be undone, reached down to run her hands over and around his cock. It was his turn to moan, and he moved his hands down her torso and between her legs. He didn't even have to go far before he found out how wet she was, and it nearly sent him over the edge. He pulled back from her hands and sat back on his knees. She grabbed his hands and whispered, suddenly afraid. "What is it?" Mulder heard the timidity in the question and almost laughed. "Just gotta slow down a sec, Scully. I want to do this right." He barely heard her small sigh of relief. "Believe me, Mulder, you're doing this right." She pulled him back down to her, her lips meeting his halfway. He settled on top of her, and she spread her legs for him, wrapping them around his waist as he pushed inside her. Neither of them was prepared. Each stroke was followed by another in quick succession, and Scully let out a small cry as she came, her body racked with shudders. Mulder came not long after, and Scully pulled him closer with her legs as he moaned and fell on top of her. They lay like that for several minutes, neither wanting to move. No words passed between them, and both of them were afraid to even breathe, lest they find out that this was all a dream, just another fantasy played out in the dark hours they spent apart. Finally, "Scully?" "Yeah?" "I..." "Yeah. Me too." She kissed him, long and soft. He kissed her back, silently thanking whatever power that was that she had stayed, that she had woken up. This was a night of beginnings and endings. Scully pondered the newest direction in their lives with the casual drifting of a sated lover. Love had found them long ago, piercing each of them with its strength. But until they had each closed the chapters of torment in their lives (him, Samantha; her, Daniel), they had been unable to begin. They had been unable to find love. Until tonight. The circle had closed, Scully mused as Mulder fell again to light snoring. They were complete. She was complete. !*!*!*!*!*!**!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!**!*!*!*!*!**!*! The End. Hated it? Loved it? Please remember that this my first and probably only attempt at smut, and that I think this was a lousy attempt at fluff. So anyway, back to my lengthy post-colonization.....
