"It's raining," he says quietly, setting down 
the ice bucket.

"So I hear."  Thunder crashes.  She leans up on 
her elbow, smiling, and when he doesn't turn, 
"Mulder?  What is it?"

He sighs.  "... I'm remembering rain and cheap 
motels, graveyards, missing coffins, Billy 
Miles."  Hesitation.  "You laughing."

"We've come a long way, haven't we," she 
whispers.  He's quiet.  "Mulder, come here."  
She's patting the bed, but he chooses the 
floor, rests his head back, looks at her 
earnestly.

They sit, just looking, together, quiet, and 
it's been too long.  They're almost lost.

The storm rages.

"What are you thinking? ... Mulder?"
