First off, I don't own the X-Files or the characters, but I do own the fic. The story takes place after Scully finds out that she's pregnant, but, however, Mulder has not been abducted. There are spoilers and character reviving, and don't worry, there will be plenty of MSR. Enjoy.
Five's A Crowd
Chapter One
Lady Sanna
FBI HEADQUARTERS
PARKING LOT
WASHINGTON DC
Three women huddled around the monitors that were strategically placed inside the white van. They had everything that they could ever need for a stake out. The quiet whir of the machines filled the stuffy air that surrounded them and the light steam rising from their coffees added to the heat that was burning them from the inside out.
"How long until they come in?" The attractive blond asked, running a hand through her short hair.
The older looking brunette checked her watch. "It's 9:25 now. They should be coming in about five minutes."
She took the mini binoculars from the small table and peered through them toward the elevator of the FBI parking garage. Disappointed and somewhat restless, she puffed out a breath of air and sat back down on her chair.
"Goodness! Doesn't this van have air conditioning?" The third woman had a British accent along with wide, alert eyes that seemed as if she was always optimistic. "I think the machines may be overheating." She took out a small, electrical fan and positioned it in front of her face. A content sigh of relief escaped her lips and she rested against the back of her seat, closing her eyes for a moment from lack of sleep.
All night, they were setting up equipment in the hidden pockets of the X-Files office, hoping that the agents wouldn't suspect a thing when they came in the next morning. Everything had to be perfect. After a few years of not having their favorite man around, they were desperate to win him back from his redheaded partner. Call them crazy, but they didn't think that their actions were idiotic. Besides, a man like Fox Mulder wasn't a man that you would want to let go so easily.
After taking a sip of her lukewarm coffee, Diana Fowley picked up the binoculars once again and tried to spot him in the surrounding area. She gasped and signaled for her fellow companions to take a look.
"There he is!" Her mouth dropped as her eyes traveled up and down his gorgeous body.
"Wow, he has a lot more muscle on him the last time I remember," Detective Angela White smirked and remembered that night in the motel. Her smirk then turned into a slight frown when she also remembered his partner walking in on them. Silently, she cursed under her breath, knowing how close she was to Agent Mulder.
From the monitors, Phoebe Green watched them walk across the parking lot, talking and enjoying the other's company. She could tell that they really bonded over the years. A slight smile or touch told everything that she needed to know. It was all there and she grew overwhelmingly jealous of what she was interpreting in their actions.
"I've never seen Mulder look so happy. What do you think they're talking about?" Phoebe asked adjusting the camera angle with the controls in front of her. She noticed how Mulder would sometimes look down at Scully's abdominal area when he talked and wondered about a possibility, but dismissed it immediately.
"Okay, they're going into the elevator," she reported.
"Right. Let's start up the sound control and audio. Hopefully, we'll be able to hear what they're saying." Diana grabbed the earphones and placed one side on her left ear as she helped Phoebe with the equipment.
Angela looked around a little, and seeing that she didn't have to do anything else, picked up a nail file and started filing away.
This was going to be a long day.
