Mulder started his car and pulled out into the street, he turned his radio on full ball and started singing and tapping on the steering wheel to the beat. Mulder stopped at a red traffic light, he looked both ways then felt something touch his leg, he didn't take much notice at first but after he felt something big crawling up his leg, he started to feel uncomfortable, he reached down and tried to swat his leg but the thing crawled higher, Mulder gritted his teeth as the lights turned green, he tried to swat it again through the pants but it didn't work, just then the car behind him beeped it's horn
"Move it already!!!" Mulder heard the driver behind him yell, Mulder placed his hand on his pants just above the knee, stopping the crawling thing going any higher as he drove forward, he looked for a place to pull over but there wasn't any on the busy street, suddenly the thing on his leg crawled around and started to head up further, without realising Mulder pushed the accelerator down, while in attempt to stop it he didn't even see the next red light until he had gone through it
"Damn!" he cursed
'At least no one saw it' just then sirens stared to wail, Mulder glanced in the revision mirror and groaned, he managed to find a spot and pulled over, by now the crawling had just about reached the top of his leg, in a frantic attempt Mulder reefed off his seat belt and jumped out of the car and jumped up and down several times just as the cop walked over
"Sir?" Mulder held up a hand
"Hang on!" Mulder felt the thing reach the bottom of his leg and with one more jump, a big black spider fell out, Mulder jumped back and shuddered
"God damn that's a big spider!" the cop said adjusting his hat, Mulder backed towards the car as the spider crawled off
"Well I guess I better get going" Mulder said placing a hand on the car handle
"Now hang on a minute, you were speeding 5k's over the normal speed limit"
"Well we can see why" Mulder said pointing to where the spider was, the cop started to write a ticket
"Rules are rules" he continued to write
"Hang on a minute! I am an FBI Agent" Mulder showed him his badge, the officer looked at it
"Then you should have known better" the cop ripped off the ticket and handed it to Mulder, Mulder groaned as he took it "Have a nice day"
"Yeah right" Mulder grumbled as he got back in his car, just then his phone rang
"Hello?"
"Mr Mulder this is your landlord, just letting you know that we will be fumigating the building for the week, so you'll have to stay someplace else until the infestation is fixed…"
"But!…"
"Sorry for any inconvenience" the phone went dead, Mulder sighed
'So much for a normal day, hopefully Scully will be having a better time'

Scully climbed out of her car and walked back inside her apartment, she decided not to go to work today but to stay at home instead and have a relaxing day without Mulder. Scully walked to her closet and decided to clean up some old boxes of clothes and nic nacks she hadn't gone through in ages, she pulled them out and started to go through them after sometime she had found some clothes, a black singlet, a black short skirt, knee high black boots, black lipstick and black hair dye, she also found an old makeup kit she hadn't seen in ages, Scully laid them out across the floor and stared at them for a moment, feeling bored she suddenly had an idea, picking all the black clothes up she walked into the bathroom, placing everything down on a chair, she leant over the sink and started to wet her hair, she then picked up the black hair dye and rubbed some through her hair, after a few moments she started to dress herself in all the black clothes, starting with the singlet and skirt, Scully then pulled on the black boots and did them up, she then pulled out the makeup and rubbed some of the black around her eyes, next she undid the lipstick and carefully ran it across her lips making them a midnight black colour, running her fingers through her hair, Scully looked in the mirror at herself, she was now in a full black outfit, feeling pleased with herself she walked out the of the bathroom and started to cleanup the rest of the stuff up when a knock came at the door, Scully looked down at herself
'Oh man!" Scully thought, the knock came again, Scully walked over and peered through the hole, she saw Mulder standing there 'Damn! Oh well here we go' Scully opened the door slowly
"Scully I… Scully?!" Mulder stopped in mid sentence as he gazed over Scully's new look
"Hey Mulder"
"I like your new morning hair style look, it really suit you." Scully pursed her lips and half smiled "Gothic really suits you, you should go to work looking like that, I'm sure
Skinner would approve" Scully opened her mouth, and then closed it again "Well can I come in?"
"Actually I was just about to go down to the store and get some groceries, milk mostly since you drank the rest on me" Mulder gave her one of his 'it wasn't me looks' before adding
"You're going out dressed like that?" Scully grabbed her keys and wallet and walked out the door closing it behind her "I'll see you later" she walked past him and down the hall still wearing her gothic outfit, Mulder turned and headed after her
"Hang on! Wait up! I want to see this!" they reached the car and Scully was about to get in the drivers seat when Mulder stepped in front of her
"Mulder, what?…"
"I'm driving you to the store"
"But…" he held up a hand
"My treat… and besides it'll probably be hard to drive in that skirt" Mulder said taking a look at her legs
"Mulder, up here" Mulders eyes looked back at Scullys again, she threw the keys at him, he only just caught them
"Lets go Spooky" Mulder gave her a half sarcastic look before they both go in the car
"Oh by the way, I'll have to stay at your place for the week"
"What?!"
"Bug infestation" Scully groaned as they drove off

Mulder and Scully walked through the doors of the supermarket; Scully got many stares as she started to drag a foot across the floor and swung her arms around
"Scully what are you doing?"
"I'm a zombie!"
"I didn't think you believed in Zombies" Scully turned to Mulder, grabbed his arm and started nibbling on it
"Scully if you don't stop that, I'll leave you to walk by yourself" Mulder said pulling his arm away, Mulder noticed a lot of people staring at them now
"Spoil sport!" But Scully kept on dragging her foot across the ground
"Do you want milk or don't you?" Mulder asked stepping around her, she and Mulder walked towards the cold section, they reached where the milk was
"A big store and they only have one milk left?" Mulder said as he picked it up
"Well at least I got the last one" Scully said pulling it out of his hand
"You? I've run out of milk too, I'm taking it home with me!" Mulder said taking it back
"I don't think so I need it more than you!" Scully said grabbing it back off of him
"You don't even use it that much!" Mulder tried to pry it from her hands but she bent backwards away from him
"Mulder it's mine!" Scully growled as she held on tight to it, some of the customers stopped what they were doing and look on at the display, meanwhile Mulder managed to slip it out of her hands he nearly had it when it fell and rolled away
"Now look what you've done" Scully and Mulder scrambled for the bottle of milk when someone dressed in a cat suit picked it up
"Hey pussy, that's mine!" Mulder said pointing at the milk
"Meow!" the man laughed under the suit as he started to move away, Mulder started to run after him, suddenly the man in the cat suit dropped the bottle smashing it on the ground, Mulder stopped and stared at it then looked up and saw the man in the suit disappear around a corner
"Yeah that's right run pussy! Run!" just then Scully came up behind him
"Now what do we do?"
"Well we still have to get groceries right?"
"Right?"
"Well let's get shopping!"
