Fanfic

I believe today (yesterday?) is National Fanfic Writer’s Appreciation Day! So thank you to my favourite XF Fanfic writers: Penumbra, Fialka, Punk Manoeuverability, Revely, Cofax, Prufrock’s Love, Onpaperfirst, Discordant Words, (I’ve possibly missed some). But most of all, at the top of my list, Jesemie’s Evil Twin. You’ve all given me hours of pleasure over nearly 20 years :)

I posted my last fic and it has some errors. This is better. Getting lots of hits but no feedback. Pretty sure I scared everyone off.

I have a prompt if you could write it? When Scully takes Mulder back to his apartment in Three Words, her pregnancy hormones get the better of her and she ends up losing her shit with him acting like a man child, and is offended that Mulder doesn't know the baby is his.

I’m only doing mini fics right now Anon, I hope this is okay!

Mulder closed the heavy wooden door behind him and craned his neck to watch Scully stomp down the stone hallway and into the bathroom. He knew the slam of the door was coming but it still made him jump. He took off his shoes and tucked them neatly next to the door then hung his coat in the hall closet. He meandered the spacious house, touched what Scully called “art” and decided to boil some water for tea. Yeah, Scully liked tea and he hoped he could pacify whatever was eating at her. He leaned against the counter and watched the kettle.

It had only been three days since Scully told him she was pregnant. He hadn’t said much, he didn’t know what to say. Hell, he still didn’t. Pregnant? At their age? Scully was beautiful, a shining example of a woman in her mid 50’s who looked nearly a decade younger and had the stamina of a 20 year old. But pregnant? The whole William/Jackson thing had him spooked. What if? That’s what he had said to Scully in the car. “What if it’s not mine?” He asked her as he gripped the steering wheel, glancing over at his partner, watching her small body coil like a viper. Shit.

As if on cue the door slammed open and Scully, clad in a mint green robe stalked into the kitchen. “What are you doing?” She snapped.

“Making some tea. Would you like some?”

“That’s not what I mean, Mulder!” She crossed her arms and stared into his soul.

He felt his stomach clench. Jesus he loved this woman, but she was terrifying. “I uh, what do you mean? What am I doing?”

“To me, Mulder! What are you doing to me?” She threw her arms up like an Italian grandmother. Her face blotched red and he saw the telltale tremble of her chin.

“I’m not doing anything to you, Scully, what? What do you mean?” He took a step forward and stopped when she held her hands up.

“What if this baby isn’t yours?” She whispered, her voice wavered slightly.

Mulder dropped his head and retreated to the screaming kettle. “Tea?” He asked weakly.

“Mulder.” Her voice was stronger and her arms were crossed again.

“I’m just afraid” he admitted with some defeat. He wasn’t able to meet her eyes and he slid onto a barstool and fiddled with his watch.

“You’re afraid? You’re afraid? Jesus, Mulder, really? What do you think I am?” She slapped his hands, “look at me! Do I look okay? Does this look like the face of a person who is confident in this sort of a situation? I’m fucking terrified!” Her tears betrayed her and raced down her face. She wiped her cheeks furiously. “I’m afraid,” Her voice rose around him like steam and he felt himself melt.

“Scully, I know you’re afraid, but, you know, it’s obvious that the baby is yours. It’s in your body. What if? I mean, they are capable of anything. I just can’t go through this again, I can’t lose you, I can’t lose our child.”

“It’s yours. Mulder, I feel it in my bones, this child is a product of you and me. Nothing more, nothing less. Please believe me. Try to believe me. I need you to. I can’t do this… I can’t do this with out you.” She folded herself into a chair at the dining room table and pushed her hair out of her face then stared at Mulder.

“You won’t do this alone. And I do believe you, Scully.” He walked over and pulled her up and into his arms. “We can do this,” he whispered into her hair.
