Summary
Fox Mulder finds himself working in a bookstore and saving up to study at Oxford and leave his dark memories behind. He doesn't want to need anyone, ever.
"Head down, earn the money, get out. That’s all I wanted. Why the hell was I wondering what her name was?"*
Dana Scully is rebelling from her parent’s set path of medicine by moving away to Connecticut to study forensic science.
"In reality, what annoyed me most was the fact that I was even thinking about him at all. He should be a faceless, nameless bookstore employee. A man that I met once, in such unimportant circumstances that he faded into my memory, his face only to be deployed as a background character in my dreams, the way that the brain recycles old faces you won’t need again.
And I definitely do not need his face, ever again."*
They both keep an intimate secret, one that quickly comes to light as they feel themselves falling for each other. Though they try to fight it, hormones and curiosity get the better of them, and they end up finding a lot more than they ever could have imagined.

Summary
Dana was studying to become a doctor in Baltimore when it happened. As small as a poppy seed.
Her entire world shifted. Her mother had found it shameful, her father, unforgivable. Daniel had found it impossible. Mulder found it… fascinating.'His heart ached for her, and the terrible things that must have led her to even consider this arrangement.
He had to say something, he had to give her a chance to turn around and make a better decision.‘Is this what you want, Dana?’ He asked abruptly, stepping further into her personal space than he had before.
She felt her entire world still, and a raw pain shot through her. Not one person in her life had cared to ask her that yet.
‘It is what must be done.’ She said simply, and the air stung around her words.
He nodded, his eyes dropping from hers to somewhere over her shoulder. He didn’t move away, and Dana felt a scorching heat envelop her body in his presence. She thought it must be fear, or perhaps just a symptom of her situation.
It suffocated her, the dry heat, the deep, woodsy smell of him, the insanity of his questioning. It was all too much.' -

Summary
Following on immediately from My Stranger In The Night, Mulder & Scully have a painful journey back to each other after being separated by a criminal that demands Mulder's attention. Guilt and trauma are brought to the surface as long-buried truths finally come to light.
Their love is one that endures and overcomes, and they lean on each other for comfort and support as they navigate the uneven path of healing.
'Mulder swept through the scene, feeling like an outsider in his own home, struggling between the urge to crumple into a pile on the floor by her shoes, and the practised instinct to catalogue evidence.
Looking at any part of their life together as pieces of evidence made his hands clench painfully and his mouth dry out.
He wanted to be able to detach, to observe and compile clues, but then the sight of her keys, her cardigan, or her half-finished cup of tea would gut him and threaten to bring him to his knees.
The apartment was foggy with memories, too dark for him to see a thing. The scene was covered in her.
A week ago, he was planning their future, preparing himself to become a man she could marry, and love. Now he was looking for clues in the mess of their lives.'Series

Summary
A purely smutty, plot-less story of Scully fulfilling Mulder's fantasy for his birthday weekend!
*
‘Ohh, so outdoors, like the woods?’ I blushed.
‘Yeah.. In nature, under the stars. Completely free.’ He said nervously.
‘Ok. Good to know.’ I smirked and lay my head back down on his chest.
