Summary
This is another fanfic based on the "Never Again" series.
***
"Then tell me, why HIM, and not ME?"Scully leaned back in her chair and licked her lips. She looked at me intently.
"That's a good question. It's definitely worth answering. Why didn't I let YOU fuck me? Right? I'm just confirming. Let's skip the drinks and the tattoo. Clearly, you're only interested in the most interesting part of the party," she chanted in a tone as if reporting autopsy results.She took a critical glance at my face and figure, and lingering on the tie, she suddenly raised her eyes and said,
"Silly tie, as always." Her gaze was focused. She was drilling holes in me with her eyes.

Summary
There had been so many false starts between them. They lived in this dichotomy that had become all too comfortable; partners, friends; a professional air, a flirtation they skirted around and then those sporadic moments in the dark. Passionate and wanting, always as a result of something terrible and then never spoken of again. Cloistered and hidden away, until the next time.
