God, Alex fucking Krycek had just handed her a letter from Mulder. He was
looking at her. She opened the letter, it was written in Mulder's illegible
handwriting.
Scully,
If all has gone as planed I'm gone and Alex has just handed you this letter. Yes,
Alex. I guess I should start at the beginning. That would have been about a
year and a half ago. I won't tell you how we got together, if you want to know
you can ask Alex. But I've been working with him and the resistance ever since.
I wanted to tell you, but you barely believed in Aliens at the best of times.
Besides I wanted to keep you safe. You've suffered so much already. Anyway the
resistance knew almost immediately once the ships crashed. They knew where and
they knew about how long they would have before everyone was taken and the ship
was repaired. It was an opportunity that they couldn't resist. The chance to
get someone on the inside. They found the connection between the abductees and
figured I'd be up for grabs, so to speak. Just what am I going to do you ask.
I'm getting information for the resistance. They gave me some things that'll
make it so I can record it for them without worry. Also they made it so
mindwipes won't effect me. Won't that be nice for a change? I guess that's it.
I will be back, I don't know when, but I will. And you're going to be a mommy.
Don't ask how I know, no one will tell you. She's going to be a beautiful little
girl, just like her mother. That's all I have to say; only you can trust Alex.
If you let him, he'll help you. Don't you or Skinner blame yourselves for this.
It was my choice.
Love, Mulder
"Why?" It was the only thing she could think to ask Krycek.
"It was the only way. You think I wanted him to go? If I could have it any
other way I would." And with that he left. She could see the anguish on his face
and strangely enough she believed him. He would have tried as hard as possible
to keep Mulder here if there was any other way. And Mulder said to trust him,
that he would help. Maybe she could try, for Mulder. It wasn't until Skinner
asked what was wrong that she realized that she was crying. Scully handed him the
letter.
A Letter
by Amaresu
Alex walked into the hospital. He got on the elevator and went to the third
floor. He walked down the hall and stopped outside of a room. Inside he could
hear voices. Scully and Skinner. As he stood outside the room to wait he
thought about Fox. Two days ago, god was that all? Two days ago he'd come out
of the bedroom to see Mulder writing something. He'd asked what it was. Fox had
said that it was a letter for Scully. That after he was gone he didn't want her
to blame herself, to let her know that he would be back. Alex had argued about
it, but Fox had distracted him. Yeah he'd distracted him, by sucking his cock
down his throat. Latter he'd made him promise to give the letter to Scully as
soon as possible after he was gone. He'd agreed then helped him figure out just
what was safe to tell her. So here he was. Outside Scully's hospital room. As
he listened in he heard Scully tell Skinner that she was pregnant. Good so she
already knew. He took a deep breath!, trying to calm himself and opened the
door. The two of them looked at him in shock that quickly turned to rage on
Scully's part. "What the hell are you doing here?" she demanded to know. "Mulder
wanted me to give you this. After he left." He then handed her a letter. He knew
what it said already. He'd helped Fox write it. He'd been so worried about
Scully. Two days together after the month and a half he had spent in that
Tunisian Penal Colony had been to short, but they hadn't set the timetable.
Scully finished reading the letter and looked at him. "Why?" it was all she
asked. "It was the only way. You think I wanted him to go? If I could have had
it any other way I would." And with that he left.
