Summary
They don't know what evidence is truth. They don't know who to trust. They don't even know if they can trust each other.
But when Scully finds marks on her back similar to those of the victims in their case, she panics. Finding herself at Mulder's door in not much more than a bathrobe, she seeks reassurance from her new partner. In her vulnerability, he opens up to her in return, though the ground they walk on is still new and fragile.
This one-shot contains themes present in the original script that were later cut from the final episode, including a relationship that Scully is in. Although this relationship is mentioned, this fic centres Mulder and Scully, and explores this very charged scene between them a bit deeper, particularly from Scully's perspective.
