Morgan Casey's Residence
Washington D.C.
April 9
4:21 pm

Living across the street from each other gave these two friends an advantage that no other friends had, the chance to play their favorite game with the men on the street, "boxers or briefs." Being as they were both on the second floor of their apartment buildings and their windows were practically exactly across from each other.

They watched the men coming and going down on their street below. Paying more attention then needed.

"Boxers" said the two friends together, over the phone regarding a young man down on the street.

"It's obvious because he looks so *loose*" said Morgan jokingly.

Just then a Ford sedan pulled up to the curb and a man stepped out. "Hmmm, Hard to tell," Morgan remarked "He's cute but I just can't tell if he's relaxed or not." She watched as the man walked around to the other side of the car and opened the door. "Oh, that explains it," exclaimed Christina "he's taken!"

When the red-haired woman stepped out of the car Morgan automatically knew they were there to see her. "I gotta go. Talk to you later." Morgan said as she was hanging up the phone. "Bye!" Said Christina hurriedly.

She put the phone back on its cradle and rushed into her room to get out of her bathrobe. She had just gotten out of the shower when Christina called. She quickly threw on an Old Navy sweatshirt and a pair of blue jeans. She took the towel off her head and quickly ran a brush through it and put it haphazardly into a ponytail. A glance in the mirror told her she was presentable and she stepped out into the hallway just as there was a knock on the door. She had to run before they woke Beth up.
She ran to the door, as quietly as she could and when she opened it the man and woman (the red-haired cop) were standing there.

"Morgan Casey?" asked the male.

"Yes? Can I help you?"

"I'm Special Agent Fox Mulder with the FBI. I believe you know my partner Special Agent Dana Scully" Said Mulder pointing in Scully's direction.

Morgan and Scully nodded at each other in recognition.

"Have I done something wrong?" Queried Morgan.

"You fled a crime scene Miss Casey" Scully responded.

"Am I under arrest?" Morgan asked. This time worry was present in her voice.

"No. We would just like to ask you about the events that happened during the robbery yesterday." Said Agent Mulder

Just then a screeching cry came from the back of the apartment. Morgan sighed, *so much for Beth's three-hour nap today* she thought. "Come in, please" Morgan said opening the door wide, "Excuse me for just a moment." "Of Course" Mulder said dismissing her.

She disappeared into the back of the apartment and reemerged from the back of the apartment carrying a baby who looked about to be a year old.

Mulder thinks to himself *she must be babysitting she's to young and thin to have a child seeing as how she is only 18*.

"This," Morgan said as she was turning the baby around to face Mulder and Scully "is Beth."

"I'm sorry" Mulder remarked, "Did we come while you were working?"

"Huh? OooH! No she's all mine." Morgan was flattered. *I guess I did a good job keeping my weight down* she thought. "I was raped, he didn't use a condom, I got pregnant and I couldn't bring myself to give her up. She's mine and I'm hers"

"I'm sorry." said Scully

"Don't be, in a way it was the best thing that happened to me." She didn't want to talk about it anymore.

"Please, have a seat." She motioned toward the couch in the living room. She sat down in a chair opposite the couch and coffee table. Mulder spotted a bowl of sunflower seeds sitting on the coffee table.

"May I?" Mulder asked gesturing to the bowl

"Go ahead, that's what they're there for."

"Now, Miss Casey" Scully said getting down to business. "What did you do yesterday after you bumped into me?"

"I went to replace my dress, I had grabbed the wrong size, and that is when the gunman walked in. He started shouting and waving a gun and so I hid in clothing wrack and then I saw you coming out with your gun and I knew that wasn't going to be good. I watched as your gun flew from your hands, as did the gunman's and then he went flying. I got really scared and so I ran. I had to get home to my baby. My friend was watching her for just a few minutes while I ran to the store. I ran home because I was scared."

"Miss Casey did you cause the guns to fly out of Agent Scully's and the gunman's hand yesterday?" Mulder asked rather pointedly.

"What makes you think that?" Morgan replied without answering the question.

"You were the only one who fled the scene, Miss Casey, that implied that you had something to hide." Scully told her.

"You didn't answer my question Miss Casey, were you the cause of the 'flying of the guns'?" Mulder insisted. He wasn't going to let her answer a question with a question. An obvious sign that there is definitely something to hide.

Morgan paused before answering thinking about what was at stake if she told the truth. She knew she couldn't let anyone know.

"No, of course not. I don't even believe in that stuff. Now please, I have to take care of my baby and get ready for work." Morgan said as she ushered the agents out of her apartment.

"If you remember anything that you forgot to mention or if you need help please don't hesitate to call" Mulder handed her one of his cards that he had separated from the rest of his business cards. This was a card that already contained his cell-phone number on it so he didn't have to take the time to write it down. Upon prompting Scully handed Morgan one of her cards too.

"Have a nice day!" Morgan called after them and as Beth was waving goodbye.

"Well" she said to Beth, who probably couldn't understand her anyways, "that'll have to do for now."
