Another installment.
My muse is still AWOL, but maybe I can write without her.
Probably not, but it's worth a shot, right?
Disclaimer: not mine, will never be mine, I can wish they were mine, but alas, it will neer come to pass. Don't sue...all I have is this computer and my Honda with broken AC.
"Alex? Are you here?" A voice yelled from downstairs.
Mulder stood up and tried to look through the railing on the stairs.
"I'm assuming that's your mom down there?"
"You assume right. Hey, look in my room in the top drawer and pull out another shirt for me to wear."
"Aw, but I like the shirtless look on you."
"Well, my mom's kinda hypocondriac about cuts and things, so I think it's best not to scare her."
"Ok. I'll be right back," Mulder said, as he leaned down and kissed Alex on the cheek.
Once Mulder had walked into Alex's room, Alex yelled "I'm home, Mom!"
"Did school let out early sweetie?"
"Yeah. They were holding a pep rally, but since I didn't want to stay, I got a ride home with a guy in one of my classes."
"So that's his car in the yard?"
"Yeah."
"Do you mind if I meet him?"
"Umm, no. He's in the bathroom though. He should be out in a minute though."
"Ok. When he comes out the both of you come downstairs."
"Yes ma'am."
Mulder finally comes out of Alex's room and tosses him a shirt.
"What took you so long?"
"Wanted to find a shirt that brings out the green in your eyes."
"Cute."
"I know you are."
"Please, spare me the mush. Besides, my mom wants to meet you."
"Damn man. We just smootched upstairs, have barely admitted to being a couple, and now you're introducing me to the family?"
"Actually, she just wanted to meet the guy who brought me home and did you just say that we were a couple?"
Mulder blushed slightly and looked at the floor.
"That answers my question."
"Well are you gonna tell her we're toghether?"
"Why not? Not like she can say andthing against it."
"Huh?"
"I'll explain more when my dad comes home."
"Oh. Well, if I actually want her to like me, might as well not keep her waiting."
Mulder pulled Alex up into a sitting position then handed him the shirt, and once Alex had it on, Mulder pulled him into a standing position, and they headed down the stairs to meet Alex's mom.
"Hi Mrs. Krycek."
"Actually, my last name is Rose. I divorced Alex's dad a few years ago."
"Oh," Mulder replied and looked at Alex.
"Well you didn't give me a chance to say anything before you leaped down the stairs."
Mulder started to say something, but stopped when he realized how hard Mrs. Rose was staring at them, and he nudged Alex.
"Is you mom ok?" Mulder whispered.
"Yeah, she just spaces out a lil bit sometimes."
"Ok,"
"Mom?"
Mrs. Rose snapped out of her little daydream and looked at Alex. "Yes sweetie?"
"Nothing. When's Dad coming home?"
"Oh, in about 15 minutes, I think."
"Hey F...Mulder, can you stick around?"
"Yeah."
"Mulder? That's an intersting first name."
"Oh Mulder's my last name ma'am. I hate my first name, and I refuse to let anyone use it unless I really like them."
"It can't be that bad."
"Oh yes it can."
"Worse than Gertrude?"
"Ok, might not be that bad, but it's still pretty crappy."
"Well, I won't ask you anymore about it. How about we have a seat until my husband gets home."
"Ok."
"So would you like to see our family albums?"
"MOM!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Aw c'mon. I think I'd like to see some pics of you in the tub," Mulder said, as he gave Alex an evil grin.
"You heard him request to see the pictures son."
Just then the front door opened up.
*saved by the door*
Alex turned around and yelled "Hey Dad."
"Hey. Is there a party going on in here?"
"Nah. Mom was just talking to a friend of mine who brought me home from school."
"Do you mind if I meet him?"
"No. Come on in. He's just chilling on the couch."
As Alex's dad walks into the room, Mulder looks up and has a rather surprised look on his face.
"Was I not what you were expecting?"
"Actually no."
"Hey Alex, can you come over here for a second? Old buddy? Can we talk in the other room?"
"Yeah," Alex replies and they walk into the den.
"Ok, what's the problem?"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Does my dad bother you?"
"No. I'd have just liked to know about your family is all. Hell, you saw the dysfunction of my folks. Well, of my mom anyways."
"Geez, didn't think it mattered."
"It doesn't matter, but Jesus man, let a guy know these things before you bring him home."
"I'll keep it in mind for future boyfriends."
"Not funny."
"Well, if you weren't going ballistic, then I wouldn't have said that."
"Great, we've been a couple for all of what? A couple of hours and already we're fighting?"
"This isn't a fight. It's just a disagreement."
"Over you not telling me the whole truth."
"Oh screw this. Anything else you want to know about me before we go any further?"
"Do you have any STD's"
"No. Didn't I tell you I was a virgin?"
"Oh. Well, that's all I needed to know."
"Ok. Wanna go back in the living room before my parents start to wonder about us?"
"Ok."
Yeah, I suck for not mentioning what startled Mulder about Alex's dad.
Next installment. I promise. :D
