AS I WAIT
Written by: Erin M. Blair <eblair@sonic.net>
--------------------------------------------

After Assistant Director Jana Cassidy told me to
leave the meeting room because I was late coming
in, I walked out of the room and into the hallway. She
wanted to ask my partner, Dana Scully, questions
about the explosion in Dallas.

I sat down on the bench in the hallway and took off
my jacket. I put the jacket beside me on the bench. I
needed time to think as I have questions of the bombing
in Dallas. Scully and I were told that the building was
cleared, but I knew that ASAC Darius Michaud didn't come
out. But how is it possible that two firemen and a little
boy were in there?

None of this make any sense to me at all. How could it make
any sense? If it made any sense, Scully and I wouldn't have
to appear at the Office of Professional Review.

We had saved countless lives due to the search of the other
building. The federal building was too well-guarded so I
decided to search the other building. It turned out to be a
smart move on my part. I found the bomb when I tried to get
a soda for Scully, and I was locked in with it. I was scared,
and I told Scully that much when we took the flight back to
Washington DC. I told her that if she didn't ask me to get her
a soda, we would have been dead. "Thanks, Scully." I told her
this, but I wished that I could have told her how much I felt
towards her.

I should have told Scully how much I love her, and how she makes
me feel whole. I love her so much, and I need her to be a part of
my life always. I had always known that I love her. From the moment
when we had first met, I knew that she was going to be a major
part of my life. She's the best thing...no, person, in my life
right now. I want to be a part of her life, and I want her to be
a part of my life. I know I had said this, but it needs to be
repeated. I want her to be in my life--forever.

Who knows?

Maybe I can tell how much she means to me when she comes out of
the meeting room. I want to take her in my arms and kiss her.

Someday, I will tell her how much I love her. Someday, we will
get married. We'll have children. She thinks that she can't have
children, but I had found out recently that she can. The tests
were wrong. She still have ova left.

As I wait here, I realize how much I love her.

I love Dana Scully.
