Scully smiled to herself.
"So, you sure you don't wanna join me on a crop circle stake out?"
"Positive, Mulder. You have fun."
"Okay.....I'll be back in 2 days....Don't enjoy this too much!" He called leaving the office.
Scully waited a few minutes, then approached a hidden camera in a closet.
"YESSSS!" She squealed.
Running over to Mulder's house she met the camera crew. She'd employed the services of "While You Were Out" to help her fix up Mulder's house. The great thing was they asked for her to choose his favorite room.
"No problem!" She had responded, "He only USES one room!"
They (the designer and Scully) sat down on Mulder's couch, smiling.
"So, what were you thinking?" The decorator asked Scully. She smiled to herself again. It was so tempting to put up something with really solid, "scientific" decorations.
"He likes aliens." She said knowingly, "And the paranormal."
"Explains the couch," the decorater, Sandra, muttered under her breath, nodding to the age-old couch.
"I was hopping to go with a darker color......." Scully continued, "Maybe a fun lamp or something? He's always wanted a lava lamp....."
Sandra looked at Scully for a moment, then got up and looked at the couch.
"Okay. Let's chuck that."
"Uh....No,no. I can't do that to him," she said. Then she added, stretching her arms across the couch, "You see....This is his *bed.*"
Sandra lifted an eyebrow.
"Okay.....How about the desk?"
Scully ran over, and protectively through herself infront of it, as though it were a human about to be run over by a car, saying, "No, no. This is his *work* area."
"Okay....." Sandra nodded. "I can respect that.....How about that I want to believe poster?"
"No."
"The alien on the bookshelf?"
"No."
"The 'Govt. Is Hiding Something' poster?'
"NO!"
Sandra sighed. "What *can* we remove?"
"Everything else."
"Okay. How about the framed copy's of 'The Magic Bullet'?"
"Except that."
Finally they made a compromise. They decided to chuck the rug, the 42 seperate copies of "Planet 9 From Outerspace," and they chucked all those videos that aren't his. (That was Scully's favorite part.)
They stripped the coffee-colored walls and repainted it a gold color, then sponged on a deep orange. Scully liked it, she hoped Mulder would.
They brought in a new, dark gold-creame colored rug, and bought Mulder a bookcase. They also ditched Mulder's old desk chair, and brought in a new one, very much like the old one, but of a better quality.
They hung up Mulder's favorite conpiracy posters and LGM issues strategically around the room, then moved on to creating him a big mural- calage, filled with candid shots of Mulder and Scully, Skinner, and several pictures of Kerch that they had managed to sneak. There were pictures frm cases, the COPS episode they were on, and even a small picture of the movie advertisments. Also included were autographs, crazy notes they had passed to each other during boring meetings, things Deep Throat, Mr. X, and others had said, as well as several Samantha pictures.
Scully stood back. She had just placed the lava lamp on the table near the couch. The cieling had been painted like a sunsetty-red, and she had managed to paint several UFOs in the clouds.
She stepped back again. Slightly worried, she wasn't sure if this suited Mulder....and he was comming back.....that day......
She waited for him to get to his house. She smiled as he walked in the door.
"Hey, Scully. What's goin'....on....Holy smokes...."
SCully appeared a little worried. He hated it.
"Scully, what did you do? My aparment.....It looks great! And clean, and hey!, a bookshelf! Hey, my poster! Hey! Where are those tapes that aren't mine??"
Scully had to laugh. She gave Mulder a hug, and left him to wander around the room examining his aparment's new look.
Half-way down the hall, waiting for the elevator, she heard him shout, "WHERE'S 'PLANET 9 FROM OUTERSPACE'!?!?!?!?"
Scully smiled to herself.
"So, you sure you don't wanna join me on a crop circle stake out?"
"Positive, Mulder. You have fun."
