He downplays love in this scene, but if you recall from earlier seasons he was definitely in love with her. He even has her healed in season 4 in the name of the “cause.” Right… The Cigarette Smoking Man calls Scully Mulder's beloved.
That's my choice.” She paused, looked around at the empty church, before whispering her hope for her future in his ear. “That's not my 4-year-old self looking for a miracle,” she said. “That's my leap of faith forward. And I'd like to do it together.”

With help from several people, including a reformed Kersh and the ghost of Alex Krycek, Mulder breaks out of prison and escapes with Scully. As of the series finale, Mulder and Scully were on the run.
It later becomes evident, however, that Krycek is actually an undercover agent working for the Smoking Man. Krycek plays an important part in several events that are harmful to Mulder and Dana Scully: he assists in Scully's abduction, and murders Mulder's father, William "Bill" Mulder.
