Category: Mulder/Skinner music pic fic (!)

Rating: NC-17 for content

Characters: Walter and Fox

Series: No

Spoilers: None � PWP � mainly Mulder�s POV.

Summary: Sometimes, you just have to go where the music takes you.

Archive: Just tell me where it�s going

Additional �stuff�: This was inspired both by Elton John�s song �Original Sin� and a pic on Sergeeva�s site. The Club is a figment of my imagination. And, no, I don�t think what Fox and Walter are doing is in the least bit sinful. If you do, don�t read. Check out the song on the album �Songs from the West Coast� and the pic, and some other lovely Walter things at Sergeeva's site:

The one I based this on is called �Slowdance� and was made for Xanthe. Check out her amazing site (which has some of my fic too, under my 'other' name -Susanna!) by clicking below:

Title: Dancing cheek to cheek

It�s been a hard week. After a case there�s always a ton of paperwork. In the office there are too many distractions. So I usually end up bringing most of it home. Where Walter makes sure I complete every one of the dozens of forms correctly.

�I�m done. Let�s go out.� Getting up, I grab my coat, not allowing Walter time to form a coherent objection.

My hand�s on the front door before he decides to give in, getting to his feet and following me out. �Where d�you wanna go?�

�The Club.�

�Okay.�

The Club is crowded. A few years ago, you would be lucky to find someone to buy a drink for. Now, we�re just two people among dozens who have found a place where two people dancing together doesn�t raise an eyebrow. Even if those two people are Walter and me.

I can�t eat, can�t sleep
Still I hunger for you when you look at me
That face, those eyes
All the sinful pleasures deep inside

If you look quickly at Walter in the office, you�d see brown eyes, probably an expression of world-weariness combined with faint amusement or barely-controlled anger depending on where he�s just been or is heading. But here, now, I my arms, those eyes are clear, bright, calm. I can�t see them, cos my chin�s on his shoulder. But I can picture them.

Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in
Underneath my skin
Oh you were always my original sin
And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin
This dangerous game
Oh you were always my original sin

Breathing in a mix of aftershave, shampoo, and shower gel together with the unique scent that is Walter, I feel intoxicated. And calm. And content. We�re moving slowly, letting the music wash over us and the tension begins to leave Walter�s neck and shoulders. His eyes begin to close and only I can see the people around us. I know it�s not me they�re watching. It�s Walter. That�s okay. They just get to watch. Later, when there�s no crowd, no music, no clothes, I get to touch.

A dream will fly
The moment that you open up your eyes
A dream is just a riddle
Ghosts from every corner of your life

If we could stay here all night, we would. Safe. Wanted. Loved. But it�s late, and we�re both tired. So as the music fades, reluctantly, we pull apart. We�ll come back again another night. Lose ourselves in each other and the music. Then find each other when it ends. As always. It�s like there�s an invisible bond between us now. We could never lose each other. We�re together. Protecting. Understanding. Loving. Forever. Chasing away each other�s demons. And between us we have a truckload.

They say everyone has a song. A piece of music that holds a special meaning for them. We didn�t. Until now. This is our song. Thanks Elton. And Bernie.
