Title: 155 Words: Contact

Author: Cathey Scully

Rating: PG-13

Category: R, 155 word fic

Spoilers: Speculation for The Truth

Keywords: Mulder/Scully Romance, 155 words

Summary: Okay, this was written as speculation for The Truth.  I had no
idea how close I’d really gotten it.

Disclaimer: With something this short, are you really gonna make me say
they’re not mine?

Archive: Yeah, sure.  Just tell me where first.

Feedback: Please!  CatheyScully@the-pentagon.com or
Scully@ga.prestige.net

Notes: Like I said, I wrote this about two days after Scary Monsters
aired.  Any similarity to anything that happened/might happen in or
after the finale, was purely coincidental.  And look!  The headers are
just about longer than the fic!

Another note: Thanks Em!  For betaing for me!

She’d never known the rough generic cotton of some nameless motel’s
sheets to feel so good.  Scully shifted once again, and reveled in the
slide of the fabric across her bare skin.

A warm hand snaked out and stilled her movements.  She smiled, leaning
into him.  Their lips sought each other’s blindly, the only lighting
coming in from the crack in the curtains.

Scully palmed his cheek, delighting in the stubble she felt underneath
her fingers.  They continued to kiss, not wanting to break the spell by
doing more.  They flipped over, Mulder stretching and pressing himself
onto Scully.  She arched beneath him, trying to get him as close as
possible.  Their mouths parted and Scully was surprised to find tears
falling down her cheeks.

Mulder kissed her forehead and smiled, understanding.  Granting her the
time she needed, he rolled onto his back, pulling her with him.  He held
her tightly, and she slept peacefully.

End <-- not counted as part of the 155 words, of course.  See?  I told
you the headers were longer.
