Keep Surprising Me 
  
 
She turned to face him and started toward him at once, 
moving slowly,  awkwardly.  
 
"Scully...?" he spoke very softly. There was something in her 
expression  that terrified him.  
 
She walked right into his arms.  
 
"I was blind," she mumbled into his shirt.  
 
He shuddered, and she felt it. They held each other more 
tightly.  
 
"You saved me," she went on, still not looking up.  
 
He lifted his hands off her body, cradled her face and forced 
her to look up  at him. "You saved them. C'mon. We're still on 
duty." He kissed her  forehead briefly, and she stepped back 
with a fragile smile.  
 
"You keep surprising me," she told him.  
 
"And ideally I'll keep on surprising you for the next fifty or sixty 
years,"  he grinned recklessly.  
 
Dana Scully grinned, knowing that they would only be Special 
Agents for half  that time, or less, knowing what he was 
proposing.  
 
United again, reinvested, they went back to work.
