We sit in a diner, Mulder and I, pretending to eat, but really keeping surveillance on someone who is, according to Mulder, an alien.

I wistfully watch a woman feed her baby. I've missed out on that. But its ok- I've got aliens to chase. Joy.

"He's getting up. C'mon Scully."

For a moment I don't move. What would happen if I gave it all up? Would he let me go?

But then he looks at me in that way and I'm useless. I follow him out of the diner to arrest an alien.
