#first of all i love jealous scully #please post the finished fic #i love the concept sooo muchhh

i've had this fic for 1x12/fire in my drafts for ages and it's surprisingly put-together and plotted out but idk whether the people tm have an interest in the finished work. usually i'm not this self conscious about my writing but i haven't written much recently and it shows.

the premise is literally just "okay but what if they kissed about it" because that's what i think every single time i watch this scene. they should kiss. and then fuck on the desk but we will see about that

season 1 scully being jealous is really 'but that's MY emotional support idiot i have a crush on, you don't get to play with him' and i'm obsessed with it. she doesn't like sharing.

so anyway, here's an excerpt from what i've written so far, i'd be happy to hear everyone's thoughts.

———

"Yeaaah, I noticed how you couldn't drop everything fast enough in order to help her out."

Scully perches on the edge of the desk, looking everywhere except at him, and she bites her tongue when she hears how sharp her thinly veiled accusation sounds. He's done nothing to deserve it, and while a part of it is jealousy, yes, the other half is the ever-present fear of being expendable, replaceable. During some of her worse nights, she has spend hours wondering if her work on the X Files is holding him back more than it is helping him.

Maybe he doesn't need her for this. Maybe he wants to… catch up with his brilliant ex-girlfriend from Scotland Yard who dropped an interesting case right into his lap and herself with it. The kiss keeps replaying in her mind on a never-ending loop, and it's only Mulder's complete lack of reciprocation that prevents it from completely eating her alive.

"I was merely extending her a professional courtesy."

He stops next to her and shrugs on his jacket, his gaze heavy and familiar on her face, and a wave of his aftershave mixed with Phoebe's perfume washes over her. Holding back a scoff, she sucks her bottom lip into her mouth, worrying it between her teeth before letting it go with a smack.

Courtesy. Right.

Anything to be polite, to stay professional, to have an excuse to follow after his ex and relive his college days. So he can keep Scully firmly in the 'co-worker' category while simultaneously invading her personal space, staring at her lips, pressing his palm to her lower back at every opportunity—and then not kiss her despite how obviously she wants him to. The next words leave her mouth before she can stop them.

"Oh, is that what you were extending?"

She expects him to brush off her remark, which is toeing a line they have both silently agreed on not crossing, and walk away, but instead he stays put and blinks down at her. When realization begins to dawn on his face and his smile turns into a smirk, Scully swallows heavily and averts her gaze, already regretting whatever it is she has apparently unleashed. Maybe if it weren't such a refreshing contrast to the brooding expression he's been wearing she'd immediately back-pedal, but she lets it happen.

You brought this on yourself, Dana.

Mulder crowds her against the desk, standing so closely she can feel the warmth he radiates all the way down to her bones, but she stubbornly keeps staring at his tie.

"Why, Agent Scully, is that a hint of jealousy I detect in your voice?"
