Summary
Scully sat down on the couch with her legs curled up under her, and Mulder was wondering if he should stay with her, or if she just wanted him to drop her off and leave. But then he saw her lip tremble, and suddenly nothing else mattered but holding her. He sat next to her and hugged her so that her head rested on her chest. She wasn’t crying, but her breath was shaky, and he knew she was holding back tears. That was Scully: near death yet again, but refusing to let her walls down. Unwilling — or perhaps unable — to let him in, let him comfort her.
The hurt/comfort scene we deserved post-Milagro.
