"You Should Have Seen This Coming" by KPhillips
Disclaimers: I know I don't own them and I really appreciate being able to take them out and play with them every once in a while.
Spoilers: None - this story assumes that Mulder is already working on the X-files but has yet to meet Scully
Keywords: Adventure and perhaps some Mulder and Scully romance along the way.
Rating: PG-13 - R. I am not planning to have a whole lot of sexual scenes in this story but there may be some interacting with drugs and alcohol that may be offensive to some people. Don't worry, I don't plan on having our two heroes partaking in illegal substances.
Summary: Scully is dragged to a party by Melissa to meet some of her friends and there she meets Mulder for the first time. There barely get to know each other when they both get assigned to a case involving both the occult and Melissa's new age friends.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Chapter one - "Do I Really Have To Go?"
"Missy" Dana Scully whined as she watched her sister pick through her closet looking for the perfect outfit to wear that evening. "Why do I have to go?"
"Because it will be good for you"
"Says who?"
"Says me"
"You actually think it will be good for me to go to a party at your psychic's house and hang out with a bunch of new agers."
"Yes, I do"
Scully moaned "But I don't want to"
Missy stopped what she was doing and walked over to her sister who was sitting on her bed trying very hard not to pout. She put her hand under her chin and made Scully look up at her. "Come on Dana, when was the last time you actually tore yourself away from work and went out and had fun? You need to let go at least once in a while."
Scully glared at her sister. "Like I would be able to let go in a room full of." she hesitated not wanting to insult her sister.
"Of psychic believing freaks like me?" Melissa said laughing. She returned to the closet but kept after her sister. "Come on Dana, surely it can't be any worse than cutting apart bodies all day."
Scully laughed. "Oh, I don't know about that. I least I don't have to make small talk with a corpse."
Melissa laughed and pulled out a long flowing purple dress for her sister's inspection.
Scully nodded her approval and Melissa smiled at her. "You know, you won't be the only FBI agent there tonight."
"Oh really? You mean someone else has a mean sister who drags her out of the house against her will?" Not getting a response from this comment she continued. "Who?"
"I think his name is Mullins. No, that's not it." Melissa put the dress down on the bed and took a minute to think. "Mulder? Yes, that's it. Mulder. He is more or less dating Angela. You remember her from my séance group. Apparently they met when she tried to contact his dead sister for him."
"Great. My only hope of a relatively normal person there ends up being Spooky Mulder."
"You know him? I hear from Angela that is he is good looking and unbelievable in bed. Maybe you two could hook up?"
Scully rolled her eyes at her sister. "First of all, I don't know Agent Mulder I have only heard of him. Second of all, didn't you just say he was dating Angela?"
"Nothing serious. She told me she is only in it for the sex."
"Wonderful. Besides from what I know of him, he is more your type than mine."
"Really? Do tell."
Scully settled back on Melissa's bed and watched as her sister changed into her dress. "Well, I have never met the man but he has quite the reputation around the Bureau."
"Go on."
"He was educated over in England - Oxford I think. Studied psychology and was recruited to become a profiler. He is one of the best in the Bureau. Apparently he can make jumps of logic that no one else can even dream of."
"He sounds interesting not weird."
"Well, I guess he ability to see things that no one else sees is what makes him weird. I guess you could say that he is too opened minded for most people. He actually believes in things like UFO's and aliens. So much so that he now specializes in cases that involve the unexplainable."
"Cool. But I can see where you two would have little in common." Melissa stopped applying her makeup and looked at her sister. "You never could accept anything that you couldn't see through a microscope or hold in your hand. You would probably tear Mulder and his little theories to shreds."
After glancing at herself quickly in the mirror she reached for Scully's hand and pulled her from the bed. "Let me take a look at what your wearing tonight."
Scully frowned but obediently spun so her sister could appraise her outfit.
Melissa thought to herself that Scully should really learn to dress in a way that would bring out her feminine features instead of hiding them, but kept her opinion to herself.
Scully felt a tad nervous, as she always did when she thought Melissa was judging her. She wore a simple pair of jeans and a relatively tight (for her) black sweater and no jewelry except a small golden cross.
"Not bad, Sis" Melissa said as she walked over to her jewelry box. "It just needs a little something extra" She rummaged through the box and pulled out an amethyst pendant. "Could I talk you into wearing this?"
Scully took the pendant in her hand and looked at it. It was a large stone set in sterling silver and hanging on a black chord. It wasn't the type of thing she normally wore but she knew Melissa was right. It would look great with the sweater she was wearing.
Scully took off her cross and carefully put it in her pocket and put on the pendant.
"Perfect. Let's go. I am about ready for a nice tall drink and maybe even a couple of hits."
Scully cut her off. "I don't want to hear about it. I am an FBI agent you know."
"Okay, okay." Melissa said as she led Scully from the room. "But one of these days you really need to lighten up and try some of these things."
