Scully was tapping her fingers nervously on her "desk" and was in deep thought. Mulder who was searching through multiple X-Files to see if any of them featured any of The prehistoric Megladon Sightings. He looked up at the source of the distraction and found Scully clearly in a dilemma.
He span his chair around to face her and said,
"Hey Scully whats up?"
""Mmm oh sorry Mulder I'm just thinking"
"What about?"
Scully sighed and said,
"Ok so I was on the phone to my mum a few hours ago and I'm going up to hers on the Fourth of July Weekend and well she asked me to bring you but I know you wouldn't want to come but she is pretty insistent"
Mulder gave her one of his Child like grins that she loved ever so much and said,
"I'd love to go! I mean that is if you want me to?"
Scully frowned and open her mouth in surprise,
"Really? I didn't think you would like it? Or I didn't think you would accept anyway. Are you sure I don't want to make you do something you don't want to?"
"Yeah of course it will be great, we didn't really celebrate 4th of July after Samantha disappeared so it will be nice to see what a normal family gets up to"
Scully scoffed and said,
"Nothing will be normal with you and Bill in the same room!"
"Yeah well I'll deal with that. Don't worry ill be on my best behaviour"
Scully laughed and said ,
"It's not you I'm worried about"
Two weeks later and the 3rd of July came upon them . It was there last day of the long weekend. They were just finishing up when Scullys Cell phone starting ringing.
"Hey mum , yeah we will be soon. Ok yeah , mum stop for god sake yes ok yep love you bye bye"
She put the phone down with a frustrated sigh.
"Trouble?"
"Nope just this weekend will be testing"
They locked up and started walking to the elevator to go to the car park.
"I'm looking forward to it. Your mum is lovely, she is always so warm and giving"
Scully smiled and said,
"Yeah she really is but she kind of has this idea in her head that she won't shake and there's no telling her otherwise "
Mulder brows crinkled,
"Yeah? What is it?"
Scully started to blush and said,
"She thinks that we need to get together! Isn't that so funny?" They both Laughed nervously and then both went into a silence as they rode up to the car park level. Each peaking at other while the other wasn't looking. They got out and Scully said,
"Well um I better go and pack so I'll meet you at yours at 7 tonight yeah?"
Mulder smiled and said
"Yep see you soon"
They both walked away and got into there respective cars.
Mulder sighed and put his head on the wheel. He was well aware of his feelings for Scully and tried his best to hide it or not to do anything about it as he didn't want to ruin what they had but he had a feeling This weekend would be the hardest.
