Summary: Mulder is working on William Scully's navy ship. What happens when he meets the captains daughter while away at sea for a few months?

A/N: AH HA!!! I've FINALLY thought of another X-Files fanfic. This one was more fun to write than that Jeepers Creepers one, so that one shall be placed on hold while I write this one. (laughs) Em... so yeah. Here we go!

Seven-teen year old Dana Scully stood at the top of her father's largest navy ship. She gripped the metal railings tighter and smiled when the ocean breeze swept back her dark red hair. She could hear soft footsteps advancing towards her, but she didn't have to look back to know who it was.

"Dana, what are you doing out here?" She shrugged her shoulders and leaned back. "It's early."

"It's relaxing." He looked at his daughter as he took his place besides her.

"You're nothing like your brothers and Melissa, you know that?" She laughed and shook her head.

"I like it out here. It's better than staying down below the deck with nothing to do but finish crossword puzzles or read Melissa's stupid magazines." He laughed and a loud bell below the deck started ringing. Pretty soon, doors were slamming open and young sailors were rushing out into the halls with their sagging work jeans and white tee shirt.

"You let me know if one of these boys give you any trouble. Okay?" She rolled her eyes and shook her head as her father started to make his way down the stairs to get ready for another day. She sharply turned on her heel when she heard him call out to her from the bottom stair. "Oh. And would you mind doing the morning inspection in sector B?"

"Not a problem." She waited for him to disappear down the deck before she turned around and sighed.

Twenty year old Fox Mulder squinted his eyes and slowly got out of his bunk. His few friends rushed past him to get into the inspection line, but he took his time. After putting on his work clothes and fixing his bed, he calmly walked to the inspection line. He was barely able to stand still before the door to their sector swung open.

"Eyes front," their guard yelled. Every man in the room stared ahead of them. When they heard the faint sound of heels clicking in the hallway though, they found it terribly hard to keep their heads from turning. Mulder couldn't fight it, though. He turned his head the second Scully appeared in the doorway. His jaw dropped and a smirk formed on her lips. He turned his head almost as quick as his jaw dropped.

She began to walk down the line of young men, looking them up and down; passing them with either nodding or shaking her head. When she finally got to Mulder, she stopped and turned to face him. She clicked her tongue against the top of her pallet and smiled.

"What's your name?"

"Fox Mulder, ma'am."

"I'm younger than you, I'm sure. Don't call me that."

"...-"

"I'm Dana."

"I-"

"Dana Scully." He froze and straightened up. She looked around at everyone else and yelled, "Dismissed." Everyone began to walk for the door, to start another work day, but she stopped him with the touch of her hand on his warm, muscular arm. "Just because I'm the captain's daughter doesn't mean you can't talk to me."

"I don't want to get you in trouble, either."

"You won't." He looked past her and at his friends who were waiting for him to join them. "So do you ignore orders like that often?"

"What?"

"By the looks of it, your neck is fine. Why suddenly disobey orders and look towards the door?"

"Instinct, I guess. I'm used to hearing..."

"My father's footsteps?" He nodded shyly and she laughed.

"I'll see ya around... Mulder." She walked off in the opposite direction of the door, disappearing into another hall, leaving him there speechless. The girl every guy on the ship had dreamed of, thought about, talked about... was just talking to him. His friends appeared in the doorway again, with huge smiles on their faces.

"You're up early. What gives," her older brother, Bill, asked.

"I always get up early. You just never notice."

"So where have you been all this time?"

"Doing an inspection in Sector B. Why?"

"No reason." Both of them walked into the cafeteria to get their breakfast. Mulder was sitting with his friends at the worker's tables in the far back. They were talking about what had happened to him during the inspection.

"What did she say?"

"Nothing, really."

"She didn't kiss you?"

"Wha- no!!"

"I bet if Captain Scully ever found out, he'd kill Mulder!"

"But I didn't do anything!"

"There she is..." One of them pointed her out, walking towards the Scully's reserved breakfast table. "Go over there and talk to her."

"While her brother's at the table? I don't think so."

"What's her brother got on you, man? He's weak!"

"I'm not too sure about that."

"After he leaves, you go talk to her. I dare you." Mulder laughed and shook his head. All of the guys at the table were now daring Mulder to go talk to her after Bill left. He finally gave up, threw up his hands, and yelled,

"Alright! I'll go talk to her!"

A/N: Yay. So how was that? Do you guys like it? Do you guys... want me to continue it? LOL. Let me know, please. Pretty pleasee.
