Scully woke the next morning, early. She hadn't gotten enough sleep. Everything made her so nervous. She was as paranoid as Mulder now, with a good reason.

Someone had tapped her house.

She didn't know who to trust now. All she knew was that she could trust Mulder.

After years of sleeping in motels, a hotel was very comfortable. Everything was a better quality. Even the sheets were softer and cleaner.

Mulder had left Scully's room at midnight. The two of them had spent almost an hour, just sitting there. Holding hands. They hadn't moved or even talked.

Finally, Scully had yawned and Mulder had taken that as an excuse to leave. The two agents had a lot of practice not speaking. A lot of practice talking without speaking.

But, last night, both of them hadn't talked about anything actually meaningful. They had just talked about friendship and the joy of being partners.

Finally, Scully got dressed and went to meet Mulder. She went to knock on the adjoining door, when a knock came on her normal door. She ran to get it and laughed when she saw it was Mulder.

They got breakfast in the hotel's tiny café, complimentary continental breakfast.

Scully raised her eyebrows at the selection of microwaveable biscuits and pastries. Instead she settled for fruit and yogurt.

Mulder laughed when he saw his partner's expression. "What?"

Scully rolled her eyes, "You know that biscuit is a heart attack in a bag," she said disdainfully.

Mulder didn't care, he took a huge bite, "Yum," he rubbed his stomach, "You want a taste Scully?" he teased.

"No," she was disgusted.

"You sure," he waved it in front of her nose.

Scully had to admit that it smelled good.

She reached her hand out and snatched it away. Gritting her teeth, she took a huge bit out of the end that Mulder hadn't eaten.

Mulder thought it was hilarious and almost choked on his coffee, "I told you so," he whispered.

"Actually, it is pretty good," Scully said through a mouthful of crumbs, "I think I'll just keep it to myself."

Mulder looked at her until Scully sighed and gave it back, suddenly becoming older.

She and Mulder had more important things to do rather than argue over biscuits.
