Disclaimer:  Do I really have to keep doing this?  Blarg!!  NOT MINE!  GRRR!




I really wasn’t wanting to come here.  But walking takes you places.  You know?   Places you didn’t know you were going.  Takes some people to mountains.  Others to gurus or bars or work or the gym.

It brought me here.  Something brought me here.  Maybe I did.  That little spot in me that’s stained with him.  The part that isn’t black, but bright, searing red.  The part that wants.

There’s not a lot of wanting in me anymore.

It’s cold.  My hands hurt.  Even the plastic one.  It’s cold.  Siberia cold.

His lights are off, but his television is on.  Blue lights flash like police cruisers pulling someone over.  I stand on the curb.  Watching.

His window opens.  The bedroom window.  But it’s cold.  I frown and shrink into more shadows.  I watch.

I see his hand curl around the edge of the window, and then he climbs out onto the fire escape.  He puts his hands in his pockets, the breath billowing from his mouth, and he looks so alive.  He’s cold.

He pulls a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulls one out, and lights it up.

My lips part as I watch him inhale.  He takes the thick, pungent smoke into his body, and I feel paralyzed by the cold.

I quit smoking nine years ago.  Nine years, three months, and four days.  It was right before I joined the Academy.  It was this crazy time in my life when I decided to try on the white hat…quell my evil ways.

I’d always been kind of bad.  An evil streak ran through me from birth.  My mother used to worry over this birthmark I have on the back of my head.  She put me in hats…licked her thumb and worried at it as though it could come off.  She’d whisper under her breath in Russian.  And she’d lick her work-worn thumb and rub until I was red and trying not to cry.

When I decided to go straight, the smoking was the first thing to go.  I filled out my app for the Academy and stubbed out my last cigarette.  I used to smoke Barclay’s because the filter felt good in my mouth.  Like a dick that was about to get hard.  Firm, but soft.

I’ve never had Mulder’s dick in my mouth.  But he kissed me once.  After the Cole case.  In my hotel room.  We had some beers together, and on his way out he kissed me.  He didn’t mean to.  The devil got him.  I could tell it just took him, and I watched him lean in and press his lips to mine.  It was a scared kiss.  And we never spoke of it again.

His bottom lip was like the filter of a cigarette.  I still remember how it fit between mine.

Now he’s smoking.

After years of wearing the white hat.  I’d thought I’d wanted him to take it off.  I thought I wanted this.

Shit, I know what I’m doing.  The whole pedestal thing.  I know he’d kick my ass if he knew.  It’s not a fair thing to do, even to a true hero like him.  But part of me hurts watching him put that thing in his mouth and drag.  I’m actually fighting back tears.

“You ASSHOLE!!!!”

He starts and I realize that was me.  I yelled that.  I yelled up to him from my black shadows.

He takes the railing in both hands, leaning over.  The cigarette held between a long index finger and the sensuously crooked middle.  He squints to find me.  Always wanting to find me.  His eyes seeking my face, his fist seeking my cheek, his narrow hips seeking the cradle of my thighs while he shoves his gun between my eyes like some kind of vigilante justice.

Last time he saw me, it was me with his gun.

His cigarette sends delicate tendrils of itself skyward in smoke and then loses itself to the street in ash.  I watch the ash fall, breathless, and I start crying.

I step forward.

“Fuck you, Mulder!”

I watch him blink, the steaming breaths faster now, short and hard.

I walk forward, across the deserted street, the asphalt damp with dew.  We’re in some kind of fucking Film Noir, him and me.  Everything plays so cinematic.  Like I’m outside myself as I approach, or my actual self is still sweating in a jam-packed cell on the other side of the world just thinking of him, of this…all of it my imagination or hallucination.

But then he’s above me.  Him above, me below.  He’s over me like a God or a lover.  Cast your judgment and then fuck your dick inside like you’ve always wanted to…

But I can feel a shift as my chest aches.  I’m the one standing in judgment now.  I’m the one.  I’m the fucking one.  I hate him.

“What are you doing, Krycek?”

He’s not yelling.  I am.

“Goddamn you!  You selfish son of a bitch!”

He frowns down on me, his face so soft in the late night, his eyes a warm brown that glisten wet with the changing streetlight’s reflection.

“What…?”  he asks.  “What’s going on?”  Only now does he reach for his gun.  It’s not there.

“Shut up!” a neighbor yells from the recesses of the building.  I blink at Mulder, stinging.  My eyes, my skin…I’m stinging cold.

He looks around, right then left, then he looks down at me, sighing.  He backs away from the railing and I think he’s going to go inside.  Instead he puts his hand to his forehead, over his eyes.

“What are you doing here?” he asks, voice shaking.  He sighs again, but it’s hard and angry.  “What are you DOING HERE?!”  And he’s looking down on me again, teeth gritting, hand gripping the rail.

“I’m gonna call the cops!” the disembodied voice yells.

He rolls his eyes as still I don’t and can’t answer.

“Come up,” he whispers, his voice carrying so that it sounds like his lips are at my ear.

I stare at him and he throws his head back.  He takes a short drag and blows it out, eyes closed.  “Just do it,” he hisses.  Then he whispers again, “Come up.”

I blink once slowly and then feel myself moving toward his doorway, into the lobby, into the insulated elevator, its silence like cotton doom.  I move down the hall.  I see my hand reach for the doorknob, then I’m in his apartment and my ears open again.  I move through the space, dream-like and afraid.  I go to his bedroom doorway…through it.  I see the bed, rumpled sheets as though he really does sleep there.  The cold wind flutters some papers on his nightstand to the floor.  My eyes are drawn to the open window and his huddled form beyond.  Closer now, bigger now…real.

I move across the room and hesitate at the sill.  He doesn’t move except to turn his head slightly, giving me his chin-dipped profile…a warning that he may actually look at me, though for now he’s staring at the rusty metal floor.

I take a breath…and climb out.

He stands with his hands wrapped around his elbows.  He must be freezing.

His voice is rough when he speaks.  “Why are you here, Krycek?”

I remember my rage at seeing him light up.

“Are those Morley’s, Mulder?”  I ask quietly but far from gently.

His head snaps up and those moss-covered eyes lock me down, revealing a fire I thought I’d never see again.  I escaped a Tunisian prison to see those eyes.  And now that I’m here…in them…

“Yeah,” he mutters.  “They are.  What the fuck do you care, Krycek?”  He looks down, flicking the ash off mirthlessly.  “I thought this shit turned you on.”

My eyes narrow.  What does he think…that I fucked that amoral sack of shit?  That I let him touch me?  Am I a whore to him?

“Fuck you,” I growl.

He breathes a humorless laugh.  Then he looks up at me with a derisive smile that looks ugly on his lips.  “Want one?”  He holds the smoldering stick up, filter pointing at my lips.

Goddamn him.

I take a shuddering breath, the imagery overloading me with want.  Him, offering it to me like sex.  Offering it wet from his mouth…that mouth…from between Mulder’s lips.  The longing pulls me in a sway toward him.  Shit, him offering me anything.  The stinging smell and the remembered pull on my lungs.  The aching desire for Mulder to be BAD.  To share his newfound sin with him.  Darkness.  Together.  Like some Anne Rice paperback best-seller.

I shake my head.  I swallow it down.  It’s not what I want.  I don’t want him down here with me.

“Why?”

It’s my voice, from my lips and throat, but it’s foreign sounding.

“Why what, Alex?” he sighs.  Then he takes a drag.

I stare at him, frowning slightly, until he looks at me again, then back down to the cigarette in his hand.

“If you’re here on some anti-smoking campaign, I hope you brought some gum and patches, ‘cause just cussing at me isn’t gonna do it.”  Then he laughs.  Deep and pained.  He takes one more drag and throws the stub over the side.

“You’re freezing,”  I tell him.  “Go in.”

It’s been seven years.  I think it’s time I boss him around a little.

He shakes his head.  “I don’t like it in there.”  He eyes his rumpled bed surreptitiously and wraps his arms tighter around himself, shivering.

Without thinking, I let my jacket slip from my shoulders.  I shrug my prosthetic out of it and hold the leather out to him.  He looks at it for a moment, laughing shortly again.  Then he looks up at my face and sobers.

“Take it,” I tell him.

He looks down at it again.  He shivers.  His fingers brush it.

“This doesn’t mean we’re going steady or anything,” he murmurs.

He puts my jacket on.  It settles around his shoulders, big and bulky, like his big brother’s.  He shoves his hands in the pockets and breathes out into the bleak city night.

“Why is it so fucking cold?” he grits out.  “It’s March.”  He looks at me, assessing something though I’m unsure what.  Then he turns his gaze out toward the street again.  His jaw tightens.   “I hate the cold.”

I move forward a little more, taking hold of the cold metal railing and coming to stand right beside him, our arms nearly touching.  Well, his arm, my place holder.  I look down at my flesh hand gripping the bar.  It’s nearly as numb as the other one.

His tone is sarcastic when he asks, “Mind if I have another?”  He pulls a cigarette from his jeans pocket and holds it up.

I narrow my eyes at him.  “What do you think you’re doing?”

He puts the cigarette in his mouth and covers the lighter as he thumbs it lit, tilting his head like a pro.  “What do you mean?” he asks around it.

He looks like James Dean, standing there in my jacket and smoking his Morley’s.  Yet how could he ask me that?

“You…you’re better than this,” I hiss at him, too cold to mince words.  Funny.  About a month ago, I couldn’t imagine ever being cold again.  Or sleeping.  Or fucking who I chose.

He looks at me.  Takes a drag.  “I am?” he asks blandly.

I hold the railing in a tight fist, nearly shaking.  I want my hand around his throat.  I want my face in his.  I want him to understand.

“Don’t you get that?” I ask.  My lashes flutter over my tears.  How can he not understand?

“That I’m…better…”  he whispers.  He laughs softly, drawing the smoke deeply in and exhaling leisurely.  “I’m just an ordinary man, Alex.”

He says it like I’m not here.

I grab the cigarette on its way to his mouth and throw it over the fire escape.  I take his shoulder and shake him.  I grasp my jacket in a fist and shake him in it.

“You think you get to decide that?” I growl at him.  I shake him.  “Huh?  Huh, Mulder?  You asshole, you don’t even know who you are!”

I shake him one last time and then push him away from me, turning and taking the railing once more, afraid I’ll fall or hit him.

He stands behind me for a silent moment.  But then I feel his hand on my shoulder.  I jump, but his hand just lies there, a non-violent thing.  The world I left when I got thrown in that hellhole is gone, I think.  The man I thought I knew…

His hand moves…skids along my neck, fingers tickling me.  Then he’s close and his hand is pulling gently in my hair and he’s starting to kiss my neck.

FUCK!

My knees go weak as all my breath leaves me and my cock goes rock hard.

He breathes hard as his tongue slides over me and his lips suck at the tendon.

I hold my breath, now.  Even as my head tilts for him.  I’m light-headed.  Dying…I’m dying…  Why is he doing this?  I feel my own jacket brush my back;  I smell the smoke on his breath.  His other hand steals around my body from behind and flattens across my stomach, pulling me back.

“Who am I, Alex?” he whispers on the edge of a sob.  He licks behind my ear.  “Tell me who I am.”

I groan and close my eyes.  His warm breath on my neck is enough to almost make me come.  His kisses are like an interrogation.  They hit hard and then sooth the ache they leave behind.  They are unplanned…his mouth moving hungrily and without the artifice of seduction.

He whispers into my ear, “Show me…”

He wants me to show him.

I whine and swallow, turning in his arms.  I push him, unseeing, and back him against his one closed window.  I grip my jacket and latch my mouth onto his.  I want to taste his sin.  Even as I want to show him what it is that brings me back to him always…that blinding light of him.  His good.

I push my tongue into his mouth…his hot, smoky mouth.  He tastes a little evil now.  I stroke his tongue with mine, licking my sin onto him…luxuriating in the sameness.  He moans into my mouth, and I work my hand down to unbutton his jeans, then pull the zipper down.

His mouth rips from mine.  “Alex…”

I grip the denim and cotton of his briefs alike and jerk down blindly.  “You said show you,” I tell him.  “Mulder….  Don’t you want it?”

I’m flying.

He whines, turning his head.  I take advantage and open my mouth on his neck, even as I work his cock out a little roughly.  Something in me screams to do this differently.  That doing it this way…after all this time…will just show him all the wrong things.  But I can’t stop myself.  I can’t stop this.  If this is what I get of him, I won’t demand more.  I’ll bring him off in my mouth and at least he’ll know he’s worth my dignity.  Whatever the hell that means.

I slide to my knees in front of him and stroke my hand up his length, guiding him inside my mouth without thought.  I moan around him, thick inside me, and work my head back and forth.

“Gggaaaahh!  Alex!” he hisses.

Mulder’s voice above me…  Mulder’s cock in my mouth.  Surrounded by Mulder.  God…

I look up into his face as I blow him.  His hands don’t know where to be.  He scratches at the window pane…lifts a hand and runs it through his hair restlessly as the other grabs the sill.  I like the way my jacket moves on him.

Finally, just when I’ve got a good rhythm going and I can feel his shaft pounding in my mouth with his pulse, he takes my head.  “Nooo,” he whispers.  “Don’t…  Don’t leave…”  He strokes his hand over my head once roughly, but then pulls out, his cock glistening with my spit.

“What?” I ask.

“Nothing,” he breathes, hurrying to stuff his erection back into his jeans, pulling on them in a panic and doing them back up.  He crawls back inside his apartment.  I wipe my mouth and follow after a moment.  He’s standing at his dresser, hands splayed on the scratched wood.

“Mulder…”  I whisper, afraid of not knowing what to say to him.  I want to beg him to turn around and bare his cock once more so I can eat it down again.  For me…just this once…  Seven years of repression, Mulder.

He swallows.  “I…  Maybe you should go,” he says.  But it’s shaky and quiet.  I can see his face in the mirror he won’t look in.

He said don’t leave.

I walk past him slowly.  I’m scared to get too close.  I don’t want to leave.  I remember the frightened kiss he gave me that night over six years ago.  Why do we want this?  Why do we want it when we can’t have it?

He’s no ordinary man.  And neither am I.   We never will be.

Maybe I should go.

I reach the doorway.

“Alex.”

I stop.  I stay very still.  I wait for him to take an unsteady breath.

“Did you know she was dead?…My sister?”

Oh God…  How could they?   Did they?

“Mulder…” I croak.

“No…” he murmurs.  “I’m okay.  I just…didn’t know if you knew.”

I shake my head, turning to walk back over.  I stand next to the dresser and watch him in profile.  “I’ve been…gone…”  I try to tell him about the prison…the rapes…how much I missed him, even though he was supposed to be nothing to me, just a thing in the way.  He was never that to me.  But I can’t tell him.  He needs to tell me, now.  Mulder needs something from me, and that’s sacred.

He turns tear-filled eyes to me.  “My mother...”  His voice cracks.  It dies.  “She killed herself.”

I try to go to him…my one arm open, but he stops me with a violent shake to his head.  He whispers, “Don’t.”

I keep my short distance and wait.

He buries his face in his hands.  I watch him breathe it down.  We’re there in the dark together, the wind rousing gooseflesh on my neck where he kissed me.  It’s a long while before he moves and goes to sit on the foot of his bed.  He looks at nothing.

“I, uh…  I slept with Scully,” he tells me, almost…apologetically.  There’s a sad smirk on his face as he doesn’t look at me.  “About six weeks ago.  Did you know that?”

I swallow around the thing that’s sitting in my throat now.  Why is he telling me this?  When he won’t let me have him?  When he doesn’t want me?  Is it because of her?  I feel angry tears welling and curse them down to no avail.

“Alex?”  He’s finally looking at me.  “Did you?”

I shake my head and drop my eyes.  Six weeks ago I was taking it hard until I was bloody from it.  I was the bright spot in somebody’s hell.  I was a hole.

Mulder looks away again and chuffs a small laugh, unaware of my thoughts…my memories.

“We’re not lovers if that’s what you’re thinking,” he informs me.  Then softer, “I don’t know what we are.”

I’m starting to get the picture.  His sister dead…his crusade changed or over, maybe even he doesn’t know…his mother dead, by her own hand at that, then a brief last-ditch affair with his partner that sounds like it could’ve gone better…

Who am I, Alex?

And he’s asking…me.

“She, uh…”  He looks at the bed.  “She just…left.”  He swallows thickly.  “I think we both realized early on that it wasn’t…that we weren’t…”  He looks sheepishly up at me.  “That we’re not suited,” he finishes with a wry look into my eyes.  He, once again, drops his gaze.  “But what the hell, you know?  We were supposed to.  Right?”  He shrugs.  “Anyway.  I’m not even sure if we’re friends anymore.”

He takes a long, deep breath.

“And now…you’re here.”  He looks up at me again.  “And I’ve wanted you for so long…”

I gasp, my eyes stinging suddenly.  It hurts to hold the eye contact with him.  There’s so much between us.  Always has been.  But I thought it had all been me.

“Mulder…”  I hear myself whisper.

He stands up…faces me…reaches his hand out and palms my cheek.  “Don’t you ever just wanna…give in?”  His eyes sparkle with tears.  He whispers, “Because I do…Alex,”  His thumb strokes tenderly across my cheek.  “I really do.”

My lashes flutter as he nears.  His mouth is so close I feel his every breath on my lips.  I can scarcely breathe.

“Scares me…”  he says, almost not even a whisper.  “Because…I know what you can do…  To me.”

I lift my hand…feel his hair under my fingers.  I shudder.  His forehead comes to rest on mine.

“Alex…”  His hand moves slowly…a brave caress…back around to cup the nape of my neck.

I know what he means.  I’ve always known.  There’s nothing like who he is.  Nothing like what he makes me feel.

“You’re gonna…kill me…”  I tell him, completely breathless, completely hard, completely his to kill or fuck or leave.

“Some people call it love, Alex.”

“Unnn!”

And his lips slant over mine, his hand tightening up into my hair, and his tongue pushes my mouth open to receive it.

OhgodohgodohgodohGOD…

He kisses me deeply and slowly…wet caresses of his tongue into and out of my mouth.  He pulls me close gently, fitting our bodies together.  He palms the back of my head and I whimper for him.

Love…  Can we?  After so much?  Have we always?

I’m utterly stunned at how long he kisses me.  Just kisses me.  Nothing else.  And I could come this way…pressed in tight to his long, lean body with his sweet, soft tongue making love in my mouth.

When I think I might pass out from the pleasure of it, he pulls away a scant inch and breathes against my swollen lips, “Can I undress you?”

I can only moan in response.  Can he undress me.  That he would ask…  Nobody’s asked in so long.

I take a deep breath, unprepared for the stab of panic his words cause.

I hesitate and then nod.

“We…don’t have to…” He ends on a whispered word:  “Fuck…”

My voice is a low growl.  “I’ve wanted you to fuck me since that night you kissed me, Mulder.”  I don’t want them taking this away from me!

He smiles, and it’s gentle and sweet.  He whispers his confession.  “Me, too.”  His arms come around me and hold on tight, hands stroking up and down my back.  It’s so soothing and arousing both at once.  “But I think…we need to go…slow.  For a lot of reasons,” he says.

I look into his face, the openness there.  The emotion.

I nod jerkily, one tear falling down my face.

“I’d…like to undress you,” he murmurs.

I nod again, swallowing my fear.

He nods back and brings his hands around in front, unbuttoning my shirt and pulling it open, his breath ragged and scared.  He pushes it off my arms and his eyes roam over what he bared, flaring a little as they rake my skin.

I can hardly stand his attention.  When I’d allowed myself to imagine this moment…going to bed with Mulder…well, it hadn’t often even involved a bed.  I fantasized some quick head in an alley or a brutal reaming facing a wall.  Never this…  I never dreamt he’d look at me.

He sheds my jacket off his shoulders now, bringing it to his nose for a moment and inhaling before throwing it to the side with a small smirk.  Then he takes his T-shirt off and reaches for me, gathering me into his arms and pressing our naked flesh together.

I take deep breaths, letting my mouth drop to the place where his neck curves to meet his shoulder.  His chest against mine…soft and hard.  My nipples tighten and I rub against him wantonly, running my hand up and down his strong back.

He rubs back, panting against the side of my neck.  “God, Alex…” he says and I shiver against him.  He’s just breathing on me, but it’s more erotic than a decisive touch.  Want transmutes to need and I grab at him, yanking him in, feeling his rigid cock jabbing at mine through the rest of our clothes.

“Want you…” he snarls, a little of the gentleness leaking out of him as his arousal ratchets up.  I understand.  I’m high on it, too.  I’ve never wanted anyone this way.

He grabs my jeans and rips them open, pushing them down my thighs, then releases me to work on his own.

I bend to quickly take off my boots and socks, then I strip my jeans and underwear down my legs. When I’m done, I stand to see him naked as well and watching me.  His cock is dark with blood and standing up to his belly.  I try to swallow back my fear.  He’s not them.  He won’t hurt me.  He won’t do that to me.

“I want you to…lie down,” he murmurs, shakily.  Is he scared?  I want to remind him that he used to hit me.  “I’d like to do this…lying down,” he adds.  Maybe he thought we were the against-a-wall type, too, up til now.

I take a breath.  “Mulder…I’ve been tested.  I want you to know…”

He comes at me, stroking my cheek, eyes on my mouth.  “It’s okay,” he says.  His hands are grabbing at me, having me, his mouth already seeking my skin, my throat, his body courting mine to bed.

“Mulder…  I’m negative.  It’s…”

“I don’t care,” he growls.

I put my hand on his chest and shove.  He staggers backward.  “*I* care!” I grit out.  “Mulder…”  My eyes are welling up.  “I care, you fuck!”

He swallows, like he’s coming out of a trance.  He nods.  He finds my eyes.

“Is this just…Russian roulette for you?” I ask incredulously.  “Spin the chamber and see if what you get kills you?”  My erection is deflating fast and my heart is breaking.  “If I kill you, can you hate me again?…Mulder?”

“No…”

“What?”

Louder, “No.  Alex, I…  I didn’t mean that.”  He steps in a little and I inhale sharply.  “I want this…”  He stops.  Drops his eyes.  His whisper is barely audible.  “I just want it too bad for it to be taken away.”

I blink, hearing the frightened longing in his voice.  He’s a different man.  I had prison.  He had everyone ripped from him…slowly, and one by one.  He and I…we’re changed.

I reach for him, drained of anger.  “C’mere.”

His eyes travel to mine, and he hesitates just a moment before taking a step.  I match it.  And then we’re walking into each other’s arms.

“I trust you,” he whispers in my hair.

I know what that is for him.  And I don’t care if he only means that he trusts his dick won’t fall off if we do it.  It’s an enormous thing to have from him. It’s like marriage.

He comes back to my mouth…kisses my lips, lingering.   He only speaks in whispers now.  “I want you in my bed.”

My breath catches, but as his hands stroke down my face, I honor his wish, exiting his embrace and crawling up onto the mattress, lying on my stomach for him.

“I meant…on your back,” he tells me.  “But…  Jesus, you’re beautiful.”

I take a breath, almost unable to hear something like that from him.  I turn over a little awkwardly, having left the prosthetic on.  I pray that he doesn’t ask me to take it off.

He nods to it and I hold my breath.  “Does it give you pain?” he asks, crawling up onto the bed.

“N-No…” I pant.

“Good,” he whispers.  He reaches…stops.  His hands rest on my upper thighs.  He looks into my eyes, like he’s asking or giving a warning and he’s scared.  Then he looks back down and spreads my legs.  I open for him, breathing deeply.   He moves between my thighs and then lowers himself between them, face to face, his cock to mine.

“Ohhh!” I cry out softly, tempering my reaction to him, the sensation rocketing through me as we touch.

“Unnnngod,” he groans, resting his forehead on mine again.  His weight is on his forearms, and I find myself entranced with how our bellies touch as we both breathe deeply.

“This okay?” he breathes.

My hand finds the back of his head as I swallow and nod.

He slowly starts to move on top of me.

Then all I can feel is my cock.

I gasp.  He’s just…rubbing his cock on mine, and it’s not like I haven’t felt a stiff cock before, but…  “Unn, Mulder!”  And that’s it.  It’s him.  It’s us.

“Unnn…” he whines, rocking his slender body on mine.  “L-love it when you…say my name…Alex.”

He shifts from one elbow to the other, stilling momentarily.  Then he moves, rearing his hips back just a little, and kisses the tip of the flared head of his cock to mine.  I’m not sure if he’s teasing himself or me…denying us the full-body contact we’re craving. “Ohhhyeah,” he breathes, rubbing the tip of himself along my whole, yearning length now.  It’s a hellish heaven he’s trapped me in.  I open my mouth but no sound comes out.

And then he lowers his full weight with a soft, surrendering groan, mouth next to mine as he begins to rock in earnest.

“Feels…so good,” he whines.  “Are you…okay?”

I let my hand wander down to his ass, spreading my thighs and squeezing in answer as I growl and turn my face to his, find his lips, and kiss him hard.

I shove my tongue into his mouth on his moan and start to thrust my hips up to meet his easy movements.  I grip his tight, squeezing ass in my hand and dig my heels into the bed, bucking up into him and grunting into his mouth.  “Mm, mm, mm…”

In return, he eats my mouth, groaning his pleasure into me as he increases the pace, bracing himself up on bent knees a little for leverage and driving down into me faster and harder.

“Unn!  Alex!  Unn!  God!” he cries against my pant-open lips.

My whole body stiffens as I feel my orgasm hit.  My knees tighten against his undulating hips as I ride it, my cock shooting between our bodies.  I squeeze my eyes shut tight and cry as I come.

“Aleh…Unnn… Say my…name,” Mulder pants.

“UnnnnnMuller…”  I manage to sigh out on the last of my climax, and then I watch his mouth drop open above me as he gasps and his cock releases on mine.  His hips thrust once, and then again, and again as he empties himself, gasping.

“Ah…Ah…Ohgod…”

And then he falls on me in a boneless heap, petting my hair lazily and not moving otherwise.  His breath falls fast and moist on my neck.  I turn my head and nuzzle his sweaty hair.  I’m lying naked with Fox Mulder.  We made love.  I wrap my legs around him, holding him close, feeling our combined cum squish between our bodies.  I never want to fucking bathe.

“You feel so good,” he groans.

I moan a little in answer.  He feels like being home.  “Mulder…”  I eek out past my satiation.

He grunts, pleased with his name from my lips.  I try something else.

“Fox…”

He stills.  Then he lifts his head and looks down into my eyes.  He nods slowly.  “Okay,” he murmurs tenderly.  Then he closes his eyes and touches his lips to mine.  “Only you.”  He blinks his eyes back open to peer down at me in slight apprehension.  Love is one thing.  His first name is another.  I’m stunned that he’s going to allow it.  That his feelings for me extend that far.

I smile.  But it hides a fear I’d rather not voice.

“Alex?” he asks.  “Do you want me to move off of you?”

“Mmmmnnnnooooo,” I growl, holding him tighter and moving my hips a little.

“Then what is it?”

I stroke my hand over his hair, his temple…  “Do you think we’re crazy?” I ask.

“You and me?”

I nod.

“For finally succumbing to temptation?”

I drop my eyes.

“Are you wondering if I used the word love just to get you in the sack, Alex?”  His voice is soft, a compassion I’d never have expected from him.

“I’m wondering…what happens next,” I tell him.

He smiles.  He strokes my hair now, too…rubs a finger lightly over my lips.  “Well, I thought we’d shower.  Maybe go again,” he states shyly.

I smirk back at him.  We both know it’s only to cover for how fucking serious this all is.  I sober.  “Mulder, what are we doing?”

“What do you want to be doing?” he counters.

“Jesus, Mulder, don’t ask me that,” I say heatedly.  If his body didn’t feel so fucking good, I’d shove him off.  As it is, I stay underneath him, wanting him to convince me…just to say something magical to make all this possible…make it all okay.

“You want me to tell you without you giving anything?”  He’s frowning now and I’m so afraid he’s going to get up, get dressed and demand I get out of his apartment.

“Mulder…”  I sigh.  At his tilted head, I start again.  “Fox…  I want…”  I swallow.  My voice drops into a hush.  “I don’t want to leave.”

His answer is just as soft.  “I don’t want you to leave.”

Our eyes meet, fear to fear.

“Shower with me,” he requests.  Simple enough.  He rises up, pulling me up after him.  He trails his hand down my right arm and finds my hand, gripping it lightly.  “Please?”

I hesitate.

“And then stay,” he breathes, knowing I’ll allow him nothing right now.  There’s no room for obfuscation. “Stay and sleep with me,” he shivers out.  “Let me touch you again…fuck me if you want…watch my TV, but just…stay.”  He grabs my hair tightly.  “Stay, Alex,” he grits out between clenched teeth.  He kisses me hard.  “Stay with me.”  Hard…biting my lips and twisting them.

I nod and kiss him back.  “Stay,” I whisper between the attacks of his mouth.  “Wanna…stay…”

Will stay,” he grits.

“Will…stay…” I answer obediently.  We can do this.  We have to.  I have no choice.

He stands and guides me up.  He pulls me in, our bodies sticky.

“Too long…” he sighs.

“Too long,” I agree in barely a breath.  I’m getting hard again so fast.

He smiles against my skin, feeling it.  “C’mon,” he murmurs, taking my hand again.

I stop him, pulling gently.  I take a small step away from him, noticing how this makes him frown, but I smile at him a little, scared to death, as I start to unstrap the prosthesis.

He watches me take it off, lowering it to the bedside table and then turning back to him with lowered eyes.  He reaches out and takes my chin in his hand.  I look up into his face.  His hand slides down to my shoulder, and then he pulls me into him, giving me a searing kiss, his arms wrapping around me and clutching at me.  I moan into his mouth.

When he releases me, there are tear tracks down his face.  He smiles slightly.  “Hold on.”

He goes over to his jeans that are half inside out across the room.  He picks them up, digs in the pocket and finds his cigarettes.  Then he crushes the pack and tosses them in the trash.  He smirks back at me.

“Happy?” he asks.  “These actually saved my life, you know.”  He looks down.  “I’ll tell you about it sometime.”

I frown at him as he meets my eyes once more and he smiles ironically.

“You get to nurse me through the withdrawal,” he tells me.

I return his lopsided grin.  He turns and closes the window, finally, and it feels like we’re really alone together.  No more ghosts for now.

“Now come get in the shower with me,” he demands.

I smile and follow him, linking our fingers for the short journey.
