SUMMARY: CJ Ritter meets her match in the person she least expects it. Now she's taking the first step towards commitment. Part of The Ritter Files series ***********************%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% They say that we don't have a chance We're victims of unjust romance But they couldn't see the truth in their hands It's Your life by Lenny Kravitz ***********************%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% It has been three weeks since that night and Mulder is finally coming home. He had some bleeding in his pericardial region and acquired an infection in his stomach wound that scared his doctor. A good course of antibiotics and a minimally invasive surgery corrected the problem. They have him on Tylenol with codeine for the pain. He was still a little out of it when I went to pick him up. That still hasn't stopped him from getting fussy about the immobilizing cast on his arm, and having to go to a Physical therapist three times a week when it comes off. Men! Nick and I moved into Mulder's apartment last week and I'm amazed at how comfortable I am here. I laid on Mulder's . . . oops correction, our bed alone that first night, absorbing his scent, updating my poor neglected journal. I wonder how I'm going to tell my parents about what happened with Kevin, the stabbing, Mulder and I getting back together, moving in with Mulder. This is going to be hard. I hope my dad doesn't disappoint and guilt trip me like he did last time. I have never felt so low in my life. You can beat me, kick me, curse me, but don't let my dad say he's disappointed in me; that hurts worse than a rifle shot to the leg. I tried so hard to please him all my life, I did everything perfect and he shuns me the minute I go outside of what he believes is right. This time I'm fighting for what I believe in, I'm sticking by my Mulder. I watch Mulder inch into the bedroom and smile at him, it's good to see him on his feet again. I didn't know how much I really missed it, she finished writing into her journal, closing it gently. "Hey love." CJ said cheerfully. Mulder smiled and made it over to the bed, collapsing on the soft mattress. "My dearest Colton James and her most precious journal." He said out of breath. "Want me to get you anything?" "Something to drink would be nice, a non water, non ginger ale something to drink and a T3." "You're in pain?" CJ asked concerned "Yeah a lot more than I'd like to say. Can you . . ." Mulder started hesitating slightly "Can I what?" "Can you do that thing that you do on my chest? It always makes it feel better." Mulder said blushing slightly. CJ smiled, kissing him hard before making him lay on his back. "That helped too." he said with a smile, a bulge forming in his pants. "Down boy." CJ teased as she helped him take off his shirt. She mixed some Udderly Smooth lotion in her hands with some Vicks vaporub, rubbing it slowly on his chest. Her fingertips making little circles on his chest, increasing the pressure in certain spots. Mulder hummed with pleasure as she continued, making her laugh. "You purring Tiger? Like that?" "Very, over to the left. No, no my left." Her fingers ran over the scar over his heart and tears formed in her eyes. Mulder felt something drop on his chest and looked up into her tear stained face. "Honey? You . . ." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry I just . . . every time I . . . you could have been killed and it's all my fault." "it's not your fault." "Yes it is my fault. If I hadn't have been so stupid and left you in the first place you wouldn't be pain, Kevin wouldn't have stabbed you, he wouldn't have hit me. You wouldn't have starved yourself worrying about me. You would have been happy, I would have been happy." "We probably would have been engaged by now." Mulder teased, " But at least this taught us something." "You and your moral lessons Aesop." "Perseverance, love, patience, and it gave you the inner strength you needed." "Preach it Reverend." "I'm serious CJ. It made us stronger. There is nothing we can't do together." He said linking his fingers with hers, bringing them to his lips for a kiss. She kissed him sweetly on the lips, tasting him, relearning him as his hand wandered to her waist and under her skirt. He let his fingers wander under her underwear, only to have her still them with a knowing smile. "I can think of something else that could take the pain away." He said, his voice deep from arousal. "Oh really?" CJ said before reclaiming his lips again. His hand quickly undid his pants, unbuttoning his boxers, releasing his engorged length. He sighed into her mouth with relief and slowly stroked himself as the kiss grew in intensity. He groaned and started to thrust into his hand as CJ pulled from his lips. She smiled and took off her underwear quickly, prying his hand from its work. He groaned in protest till he felt her warmth around him. "Oh yes please." He whispered, thrusting up into her frantically. She stilled his hips, making him slow down. "Calm down baby, calm down." Mulder nodded his face and chest covered in a thin sheen of sweat. CJ smiled and brushed some damp strands of hair from his face as she slowly impaled herself again and again on him till he came hard. She got off him and put her underwear back on, redoing his boxers and pants, running her fingers lightly over his chest again. "You okay now?" she teased "Great." He said out of breath again. "Now you're all sweaty, come on get in the tub." "Give me a second." "K love." "I love you too CJ." he said softly, closing his eyes. 1 week later "I've found out some interesting things about Mulder while he's been on bed rest." CJ wrote into her journal with a smile. "He likes to cook. He's told me explicitly that he doesn't want me to cook or clean that's his job. Nick wishes he had a brother or that Skyler was at least Bi. His favorite color to wear is blue, judging from the amount of Blue shirts and sweaters he has. Oh and he really likes lace flies on his pants. The most interesting is his penchant for erotica of all kinds. Porno magazines, tapes, various playboy and porno channels on his cable subscription, did I mention a vast, extensive Video library of pornographic material? And what shocked me was the variety, gay and straight. I'm hoping some of those are Skyler's. I'll ask him when I take him his newest copy of Celebrity Skin." CJ wrote, closing her journal and looking at the silicon beauty on the cover of the magazine. Moments later "Well Tiger!" CJ said, coming into their bedroom holding something behind her back. Mulder opened his eyes, sitting up in the bed "What?" CJ flashed him the latest issue of Celebrity Skin magazine. "Came in the mail for you." "Thanks I've been waiting for this one." Mulder said reaching for the magazine. CJ handed it to him, sitting next to him on the bed. "I found a lot of tapes like that around here. Porno tapes . . ." "Yeah I love to watch them." CJ's eyes widened in shock at his candor "What? Does that bother you?" "What?" "Me, you know, having a thing for erotic entertainment." "Well . . ." "If you don't want me to watch it or read it, I won't CJ." Mulder said in a serious tone. "Oh Mulder no, it's just why didn't you tell me before?" CJ said running her fingers through his still shaggy hair playfully. "Never came up." "Do you watch them a lot?" "What my tapes? Not as much, I used to watch them to get off but . . ." CJ blushed and looked away "What?" Mulder said with a smile "God your being frank about this." "There's nothing for me to be ashamed of. I was a little sexually frustrated, needed a little relief. Now they seem silly, though some are really well made like the playboy ones. I watch those just to watch them. I just like the look of a woman's body." He said with a suggestive look in her direction. CJ caressed his hair again, smiling evilly as she said "Men's bodies?" "Oh no those are Sky's not mine. I watched one by mistake and almost threw up." CJ broke into uncontrollable giggles, placing her head in his lap. He ran his fingers over her face lightly, quieting her laughter. "Does it bother you?" he said softly, "Do you want me to stop?" "No, you enjoy it. Why don't you watch them as much anymore?" "Well . . . I have you, I'm not as sexually frustrated." CJ gave him THE LOOK and smiled "Why were you to begin with?" "I had a . . . you remember I told you about Phoebe?" "Yeah the girl at Oxford." "Yeah well that kind of turned me off. I didn't have the confidence I needed to pursue anyone I wanted." "Well you definitely got over it." "Yeah thank goodness or I would have never gotten with you." He said, linking his fingers with hers, smiling at her proudly. "Can I watch some with you whenever you do . . . well when ever you watch them?" "Sure." "Ok." CJ said sitting up a little as he opened the magazine and smiled "Finally! I wrote them and told them they didn't have enough women of other races in here. Now they have around the world beauties." Mulder said excitedly. CJ kissed him gently on the forehead, giving him some privacy.
