155 Words: Forbidden Fruit - Ripe
by JourneyToX
26 March 1999
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Lariat had no sedans, nor compacts, so sorry, could you make do with ... Scully snatched
the keys.

Spring, green, blue sky and sunshine in a blur. The breeze flirted with Scully's hair. Her hands
were deft on the convertible's  wheel and gearshift. The radio played all the right songs.

They drank bottled water. Scully had an apple in her bag. Mulder watched her take a bite -
white teeth and pink lips meeting the green skin of the apple. Tomorrow she would have
freckles across her cheeks. Her eyes were something better than the mere word 'blue'
could ever be.

A traffic slow down. Scully had to downshift. She put her apple in her mouth to hold for a
moment. Mulder laughed. She looked at him, shifted up and laughed too, sweet juice and
a bit of apple on her lip.

It was time.

"Scully, pull over."

"What?"

"Now."

She did.

Mulder tasted apple. And heaven.
