Consider: things are only awkward if you allow them to be awkward. Consider: for half a year, Scully has had an alien chunk of rock slowly chipping away at her inhibitions. Consider: perhaps Agent Scully is in fact in love with him.
Actually, don't consider that last one. She tries not to.
Unorthodox as it is there's an argument to be made that it served a medical purpose, and it certainly made her feel better, too, to know he got some rest and to wake up reassured that he hadn't disappeared.
"Hmmn." Another thing for the shopping list. Not that she plans on staying over regularly, but come on, Mulder. "Just let me fix my hair," she says with a sigh, standing up. His abysmal furnishing must include a bathroom at least. She's going to have a slight walk of shame aura but she'll clean up as best she can.
