Here's my part:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was two weeks after Mulder and Scully had returned from Omaha for their unusual monster case. Mulder was sitting, working at his desk before Scully got to the X-files office, as usual. Mulder had another case cooked up from another Midwestern town. Actually, it was the same town. After Scully had gotten out of the hospital, he really didn't want to lay any major cases on her. Two weeks was long enough, he figured.

Scully walked in and saw Mulder reading something. Rather suspiciously she asked, "Mulder, we're not going on any trips similar to the last one anytime soon, are we?"

"W-what would make you say that," he stuttered.

"You've got to be kidding me," Scully groaned childishly.

"Nope, I'm sure not! I live for these wild goose chases we go on!" Mulder said with a smirk. "Well, here are the details: There have been some major investigations into these cases."

"Then there's no reason for us to be there," Scully interrupted.

"Hey now, Scully. I think we can bring a murderer to justice here. I have a theory."

"Uh oh," she mumbled.

"What was that?" he asked.

"Nothing," Scully replied sweetly. "So what's your brilliant theory?"

"Well, I really don't think these are monsters at all. Nobody's actually seen a monster; they just felt their brutal attack."

"So, you're saying that someone grew fangs and vicious claws?"

"Sounds like an X-file if you ask me, Scully," he said with a grin that made Scully weak in the knees.

"Okay, Mulder. I'll go. Do you have the tickets yet?"

"Of course! You never say 'no', Scully. You're too easy!"

This really made Scully angry, but she only reacted with the "look" and a little smack on Mulder's cheek, which he didn't mind at all.

****

"Oh, it's so beautiful!" Scully said upon their arrival to Omaha.

"Um, Scully, we were just here," Mulder said unimpressed with the landscape they had just become familiarized with.

"Well, I really have learned to appreciate things since I have been in a lot worse of situations," she stated, very unlike herself.

"Oookay," Mulder said, a little confused with Scully's new attitude towards life.

"C'mon, Mulder, you gotta smell the roses! Enjoy life! Really get the most out of it! Carpe diem! Hakuna Matata!" Scully said with a little too much zeal. This made Mulder really think. Even though Scully was acting really weird today, she had a point.

****

Mulder and Scully were at the car rental place near their motel building they were about to head to. The woman behind the desk was overly friendly, like most Omahans, as they had previously discovered.

"So, are you two on your honeymoon? You two are soo cute! I can tell you're in love by the way you're looking at each other! Oh, to be in love!" the woman cooed.

Mulder and Scully both looked very embarrassed and each blushed as much as the other. All Mulder said was "Yeah" to avoid further embarrassment. The lady handed them their receipt and smiled.

"Have a great night," she said with a wink.

Neither of the agents looked back in order to escape more conversing with the friendly woman.

As Mulder was helping Scully carry her bags to her hotel room, he had a strange look in his eyes. Scully couldn't figure it out.

"Scully, after what you said on the plane and what that lady at the car rental place assumed, I think."

Just then, something from the darkness grabbed Mulder and ran off. Scully snatched her gun and took off in the direction of Mulder and the figure. She couldn't see where she was going.

"Mulder!" she called.

No response.

As Scully ran back into her hotel room in order to find a flashlight, she heard some rustling going on in the bushes.

"Federal agent. I'm armed." She pointed her gun into the darkness. She stepped tentatively towards the bush. All of a sudden, a little dog jumped out that looked an awful lot like her dead doggie, Quee Queg.

"Quee Queg?" she said with tears in her eyes.

"Arf," Quee Queg said, jumping into her arms.

"Oh, I thought you were dead! I missed you so much!" Then Scully remembered that no one dies on The X-files.

"Stay here, Quee Queg. I'm gonna go find Mulder," she said with hope.

She hurried into the woods with her flashlight, calling Mulder's name several times.

"Hey there, baby," said an oh-too-familiar voice.

"Who's there?" asked a jumpy Scully.

"Why, it's me."

"Oh, that answers my question," Scully retorted sarcastically.

"It's Sheriff Rogers! Can't you see me?"

"Um, actually, you have a big, ugly bear head covering your face. WHERE'S MULDER?" she demanded, grabbing the collar of his flannel shirt.

"Uh, he went that a-way," he said, pointing in the direction of the hotel.

"Thank you, you bastard." With that, Scully cuffed him around a tree, and sprinted back through the woods towards the hotel.

"Don't I even get a kiss?" Rogers yelled in the distance. Scully pretended not to hear him.

"What about me?" someone said behind Scully. She turned around as fast as she could. Just then, the whip around that she so gracefully pulled off, knocked the tall figure out.

"Oh, Mulder!"

****

Mulder lay in a hospital bed, still unconscious; yes, it was one hell of a whip on Scully's part.

"Mulder? Are you awake?"

"Scully?"

"Yeah, it's me. Did you know that Sheriff Rogers was the 'monster'? Mulder, he had some silly bear costume to scare people with! I can't believe it worked! I cuffed him just before I knocked you out. Sorry, by the way"

"It's okay, Scully. It actually felt kinda good," he said with that little boy smile.

"Oh, Mulder."

He stroked her face with his fingertips.

Scully sighed deeply and spoke: "About what you were going to say earlier.I love you, too!"

"Um, actually, I wasn't going to say that."

Silence.

"HA!! I got you ! I really love you, Scully, so can I have a kiss?"

"Uh, no. I'm not ready yet."

Silence.

"I had you big time. You definitely had a face of panic!"

Scully bent over and kissed Mulder on the nose. Mulder leaned forward just enough to catch her lips on his. As the agents were kissing, the nurse walked in.

"EH EHM. Excuse me.you're free to go, Mr. Mulder.it was nice nursing you back to health.have a nice stay in Omaha.would you take your lips off her?!"

Mulder broke the kiss and smiled at Scully, then the nurse.

"I'm sorry. Thank you for everything. What was your name again?"

"Bertha. Have a good one."

Scully got up to leave and said, "Mulder, I'll meet you back at the hotel. We should finish our case of the horny beast."

The end?????

Let me know if I should continue.:) Thanks for any feedback.
