So Much More by: Tara W. Rating: NC-17(you have been warned!)

Authors Notes:) This is yet another post-Requiem fic, and yes, this is my own version of how the baby was conceived. However, I *do not* believe that the special bedroom scene was any more than it was, nor do I believe, as many other philes, that Mulder and Scully had sex in 'all things.' My reason being that 'all things' was written/directed by Gillian Anderson, and I doubt that Chris Carter would allow her such creative control concerning the relationship between M & S. Even so, I would hope that we would at least get to see some kissing if not a little touching...undressing...rolling around on a bed...(w/ Moby playing in the background of course). This step forward into intimacy would be a momentous event, so I hope that CC wouldn't underplay it as to tease us w/ the possibility and leave us to our own imagination's. Being a shipper/smutster, I had to use mine, but this in no way helps explain just how *Scully* became pregnant. I am crossing my fingers that it is in fact Mulder's baby...regardless of how it was conceived. **************************************** |Scully's Hospital Room| *I'm pregnant.* Alone now, her last words still echoed in the air, reverberating through her mind, and finding acceptance in her heart. If circumstances were different, perhaps the situation would seem more plausible rather than the words of some cruel satirist. But the circumstances were different. The situation seemed plausible. But the reality was that even God couldn't give back what had been taken from Dana Scully. God did, however, have a few miracles up his sleeves. Couldn't this be one, she thought. So much of the x-files had worked against Him, so maybe, this was His way of letting her know that her faith in Him was not in vain. Could He have made this truth after a night of revelations? Closing her eyes, she flashed back to the night in question and prayed that nothing beyond a miracle of God and His love had been at work. ***** |Scully remembering *all* of the bedroom scene| She had went to him in fear, seeking comfort and warmth, and wanting his presence. It had been a revelation of sorts, her need to go to him, and he had welcomed her need with open arms. The night had been quiet and the sense of fleeting time that had drawn them even more closer over the last few weeks seemed a third party amongst the cabin-decor. The words he had spoken took on a haunting significance as she felt his warm breath against her ear once more and heard the tender cadence of his voice. **There's so much more you need to do in your life.** His gentle touch had swept across her face. **There's so much more than this.** With watering eyes, she had inhaled deeply. **There has to be an end, Scully.** His lips on her cheek fell sweetly but swiftly, and the tears were held just at bay as she entwined their hands. Silence stretched out between them as he continued to hold her in that spooning embrace. The chills she had felt earlier had subsided into a tingling heat, and a different sensation of dizziness swayed her mind. She tightened her hold of his hand as his arms tightened around her, neither wanting to let go, and suddenly, it was there. In plain sight and within reach, that something more was staring them both in the face. Love. In that single moment, there was no evading the emotion that had thickened the air around them. She turned in his arms, and his hold loosened until they laid facing one another. **Yes, there has to be an end, Mulder, but with every ending, there is a new beginning.** He smiled and stroked her hair back from her face, tucking it behind her ear. His hands traced circles along her back, and it was the most soothing motion. Eyes open, he brought their lips together. The tip of her tongue played over his lower lip in a smooth caress, back and forth, almost in, hovering on the edge until he caught it between his lips, drawing it inside. She relaxed in his arms, her hands sliding up his chest until she could feel the steady beat of his heart beneath her palm. They sank deep into the seduction of their kiss; their tongues exploring in slow, sensual strokes. He tasted of the earth, of the sky, and something salty and only describable as Mulder. His full lips fit her own as if they'd been made together, something she'd never experienced. Her hands slid under his shirt and over his bare skin. His hands still traced circles along her spine, feeling the silkiness grow moist from the heat of his palms. They parted briefly so that she could skim his tee-shirt over his head. She pushed him over onto his back and draped herself half over his body. With one finger she curled his lower lip down and slid her middle finger along the puffy, wet flesh. She felt him smile again before suckling the tip of her finger into his mouth. With a shaky breath she pulled her finger away and pressed his lips closed. Moving her hand along his jaw, she felt the rasp of his light stubble and dipped her head to kiss his neck. Pain and pleasure. Risk and release. Love and Hate. They were all tied up in this man, she thought. As if they were old lovers, they undressed each other with a precision of familiarity, revealing no rush or ravishing need...only sweet perfection. They were sitting up now; Mulder leaning forward, legs outstretched with Scully between them, legs encircling his hips. Her hands were kneading his shoulders, her head arched back as his lips trailed light kisses from her neck to her breasts. His mouth closed over her nipple and her lips parted on a moan. Cradling his head, she began clenching and unclenching her fingers in his hair. She could feel the sucking pull of his warm mouth on her breast, and she moved closer, tightening her legs around him which raised her off the mattress. His hands slid over her waist to grasp her behind, and he forced his mouth away to bury his face in her sweet-smelling hair. He traced his tongue around the rim of her ear. "I love you, Scully," he breathed. "Show me," she whispered. He spread his hand between her thighs and gently nudged them farther apart, nearly setting her on her knees before him. Their mouths had met again, and he used his tongue to set the pace for his hands. She was swollen and slick as he slipped a finger inside her, and her breathless sighs poured into his mouth. He repeated the motion, and she rocked against his hand. And in one movement, her hand collided with his wrist, pushing against him to guide their bodies together. He took his hand away and sucked in his next breath and watched as that part of himself became part of her, and they were one. She settled herself and kept still to savor the feel of him deep inside her. Their eyes locked, and all the world, time and space and heavens and hell narrowed to that very moment. The golden flecks within his hazel eyes seemed to blaze as flames; his elegant face glistening in a sheen of sweat. Everything was in his eyes, all the sorrow and the love and the passion that had ever been, was right there as they began to move together. She felt it all coming together within her, tighter and tighter, and her entire body begged for mercy as his own shuddering sent his release flowing through her. He gripped her hard, pressing his face to her neck, and just as she felt she would shatter into a million tiny pieces, her arms embraced him fiercely and her thighs tightened against the sides of his lean waist and it hit her. Every emotion shared between them, merged as their bodies, and fled away with the cry of release. Shaking from passion and tears for all of their years apart, she kept them as one even as their bodies stilled and stowed it all away for a time when he would not be with her, when she would not feel him this way. She wanted to say I love you, Mulder, but could only whisper his name over and over and over. ***** |Present Time Scully's Hospital Room| Dozens of half-explainable scenarios fleeted through her mind, and her smiles altered with each thought from joyful expectancy to disbelief to trepidation to settle on her tearful reflection of wistful wonder. Her hands slowly moved across her lower abdomen, a movement of cautious reverence, and in search of inner solace, they crisscrossed to rest against her elbows in a sheltering embrace. This was a miracle of love. A single teardrop fell onto her entangled arms, and she remembered another time when he had been lost to her. It seemed like only yesterday, but she had found him then just as she would find him again. She had to. *The End* (As always, my fanfic is dedicated to my two best friends: Lydia and Shawen.)
