Summary
What if Mulder returned to England after "The Erlenmeyer Flask"? And someone decided this was the perfect time to start stalking Scully?
OR
“They’re goddamn right you should’ve told me!” His voice thundered off eighteenth-century oak beams. “You could be dead, right now!”
She made a noise like he’d slapped her. Had he really just repeated their first fight? Yes. Of course. Because Fox Mulder was a sap and a fuckup and he’d left her all alone out there, and now- “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to yell like that. I’m just…”
“I didn’t think you’d care.” Her voice was the size of a lethal injection needle. It threaded neatly under his skin and into his veins and sent breathless death straight into his heart.
“What?” he rasped.
“You’d moved on. Or, away. You’d moved away. You have another life at Oxford, now, Mulder. Other goals. Other priorities. I should handle these things on my own. I need to handle these things on my own.”
“...Is this why you won’t answer my emails? Is this why you screen all your calls?”Bookmarked by the_res3

Summary
Mulder has a huge, pathetic, embarrassing favour to ask of Scully.
Of course, she agrees, as she would follow him anywhere.
But they both get more emotional turmoil than they were bargaining for during a weekend back at Martha's Vineyard.‘No, Scully. I want you there. Please.’
‘Ok. I’m there.’ She said simply, but her heart was pounding in her chest. She tried and failed to fight her body’s response to blush.
‘Thanks, Scully.’

Summary
Fox Mulder finds himself working in a bookstore and saving up to study at Oxford and leave his dark memories behind. He doesn't want to need anyone, ever.
"Head down, earn the money, get out. That’s all I wanted. Why the hell was I wondering what her name was?"*
Dana Scully is rebelling from her parent’s set path of medicine by moving away to Connecticut to study forensic science.
"In reality, what annoyed me most was the fact that I was even thinking about him at all. He should be a faceless, nameless bookstore employee. A man that I met once, in such unimportant circumstances that he faded into my memory, his face only to be deployed as a background character in my dreams, the way that the brain recycles old faces you won’t need again.
And I definitely do not need his face, ever again."*
They both keep an intimate secret, one that quickly comes to light as they feel themselves falling for each other. Though they try to fight it, hormones and curiosity get the better of them, and they end up finding a lot more than they ever could have imagined.
