Why this must be read:

I've been known to read and enjoy this story year round even though it's a Valentine's story. It's definitely my favorite Valentine's Day story, and quite possibly my favorite X-Files holiday story, which is saying a lot for a show that's inspired a lot of people to write a lot about Christmas and Halloween.

On the first day he left a pastel pink candy heart on her desk, and the words Be Mine wrapped around her heart like a satin ribbon and tugged tight. Be Mine. Too late.

How can you not love such beautiful imagery? The entire story is like that, so heartbreakingly sincere and sugary. I know it should probably be too much, be implausible for pretty much every character pair on any TV show, much less the emotionally challenged Mulder and Scully, but it's just such a beautiful little story.

Go! Read! Enjoy! Feel the lovey schmoop! Wish you had some Necco candy hearts!
