She woke to find the first sign of day just peeking out of the windows as it bounced off of the fish tank, and created a shaft of light. She blinked her eyes sleepily, and felt the softness of the blanket wrapped around her. Various moments of the past 63 hours rushed passed her mind in a frenzied haze, but nonetheless, she felt more at peace now than she had in months. The warmth and comfort of the night before still glowed in her heart, and she yearned to be next to him again, to hear his voice and smell him.

What she had experienced had made her realize more than ever what a vital part of her life he was and has always been. Always her guiding force in everything she did in these past seven years, she could always hear his voice echoing in her head, propelling her toward the life she knew was right.

What she felt now, she knew was right; this urgency to be with him, to make up for all these months she had pushed herself away from him, trying to find the truth in herself, when she knew all along that the truth was him.

She moved off of the couch and found her way towards the bedroom, where she stood in the doorway watching him sleep. Sprawled across the bed in a peaceful sleep, his breathing set to the whir of the fan in the background, she decided in that moment to join him in his slumber. Stripping her clothes, she stealthily climbed in next to him, and settled herself against his body. His raspy sleep worn voice soon broke the silence and she turned to look him in the eye.

“Scully? Why did you come?”

“I have finally realized what is right.”

So in a wordless understanding, as it had always been, he wrapped his arms around her, and they slept.
