Others ask me. Summary: Scully takes a risk. Thanks to: Sara Lynn for the beta help. "No Questions Asked" by Lisa haven599@msn.com I chickened out. I wanted to kiss him, but was afraid of the reaction. Would he push me away? Would he think I've crossed that imaginary line we've set for ourselves? Would he say that he doesn't feel that way about me? It was my fault. I let him walk out of here after just one more hug. I never stopped him. What was I supposed to say? 'Don't leave, I'm in love with you?' There, I said it. I love him. I'm just afraid to show him. Hell, I'm afraid to tell him. It would require a big emotional risk from me. I have great difficulty doing that, even if it is for Mulder. He's risked his life many times for me and would not hesitate to do it again for any reason. I would do the same as well. I feel so guilty. I should be thanking him everyday for all the times he's been there for me. My gratitude isn't easily expressed in words. Especially concerning his latest gift to me. Is there a Hallmark card for a sperm donor? I don't know why he decided to say yes after his spiel about this coming between us. The only thing I can think of is that he did it because I asked him to. If I asked him to jump off a building for me, I believe he would. No questions asked. So here I am alone in my apartment pondering all these unanswered questions. If I had only opened the door and called him back inside, we might be curled up together with a bottle of wine. If I told him I didn't want to be alone, he might have stayed overnight. If I had only kissed him, he might have kissed me back. We might even be making love now. That thought alone makes my heart beat faster and sends waves of pleasure shooting through my system. I can sit here and if only myself to death, but that's not going to solve anything. I began to get ready for bed, still unable to shut these thoughts from my mind. I picked up the phone and punched in the number. It rang three times before I heard his voice. "Mulder, I need you." I blurted it out before I had time to think. He told me he'd be right over. No questions asked. **** END (1/1) Like what you read? Come to Lisa's Haven: http://shannono.net/haven/
