The Beatles Files:  "Something"

     "Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present Mr. and Mrs. Fox Mulder... now I
realise this is not the way they are doing things, but it's traditional to
introduce the newlyweds as such at their wedding reception." 
     "Sir, when have *we* *EVER* been traditional?" A voice piped up from 
the hall where the reception was being held.
     "You have a point, Agent Mulder." Walter Skinner grinned as he
watched Fox Mulder and Dana Scully walk to the centre of the dance floor
for their first dance as husband and wife. 
     Mulder was dressed in his best tuxedo and Scully wore an ivory
wedding gown with loads of lace and pearls.  The dress didn't quite reach 
the floor, but it was beautiful, especially on her.
   
  "Something in the way she moves
   Attracts me like no other lover
   Something in the way she woos me
   
   I don't want to leave her now
   You know I believe her now"

     "Love you... Dana Katherine Scully..." Mulder murmured in her ear, 
lightly kissing her cheek.
     "You forgot 'Mulder'..." she smiled.
     "You are Scully first.  And Mulder's *my* name."
     She smiled brightly at him.  "Silly Mulder... it's mine now too, 
remember?"
     "Only if I can have yours." he quirked a grin at her and she laughed.
     "Okay, we'll share BOTH our names."
     The smile they shared could have lit New York City for a month.
   
  "Somewhere in her smile she knows
   That I don't need no other lover
   Something in her style that shows me
   
   Don't want to leave her now
   You know I believe her now"

     "Mulder... I'm glad we did this."
     "I hope so.  We waited long enough."
     Mulder felt Scully laugh softly, and he lifted her chin up slightly 
to kiss her.
   
  "You're asking me will my love grow
   I don't know, I don't know
   You stick around now it may show
   I don't know, I don't know
   
   Something in the way she knows
   And all I have to do is think of her
   Something in the things she shows me
   
   Don't want to leave her now
   You know I believe her now"

     The song came to an end and they bowed to the gathered guests who 
were clapping.  Then, the clinking of glasses started and they looked at 
one another.
     "You know the drill..." Dana started.
     "Oh, *boy*, do I!" Fox beamed.  She laughed.
     He swept her into his arms and dipped her before claiming her mouth 
with his.  There were wolf-whistles and cat-calls as they both came up 
for air with big smiles.

-the end, for now... only for now.-
