Chapter Eight

"What the hell..."

Mulder cut his question short as Special Agent Monica Reyes turned around with a broad grin on her face, not unlike the smile of the Cheshire Cat.

"Hey, Mulder, Scully, it's so good to see you both!"

Scully looked up at Mulder and chuckled at the bewildered expression, a look that told her he thought he was dreaming. I mean, Monica and Co's lives were already at risk from helping Mulder elude the lethal injection, so what were they doing here now? His mental question was set to go unanswered for quite a while, because the reason for their presence was the wedding and that could not be revealed to him just yet.

They got in the black limousine with the blacked out windows and Monica opened the bottle of champagne that sat on the small refrigerator.

"To celebrate."

She told them. Mulder gave Scully a quizzical look,

"To celebrate what?"

He thought aloud. Scully shook her head in Monica's direction, indicating for her not to spill about the wedding.

"Our safe reunion of course."

They sat in silence, sipping the expensive wine from exquisite crystal glasses. Mulder decided to break the silence that was somehow deafening.

"So, Monica, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I am on a special assignment."

"What kind of special assignment would that be?"

"You'll find out in the next couple of days, who knows, maybe you can get yourself involved."

Monica gave Mulder a very childish grin which made him even more certain that something was being hidden from him. He still couldn't put his finger on what it was. They left that conversation behind but Mulder was getting very annoyed with all the secrets going around that only he seemed to be kept in the dark about.

The limousine finally came to a stop outside an extravagant hotel in Glasgow, after a drive that only took forty-five minutes but seemed a lot longer. Stepping out of the car, Mulder held out his hand to Scully so he could help her out of the car. When she stepped onto the pavement, Mulder swept her into his arms and planted a soft kiss on her cheek. He placed her back onto the edge of the road, and picked up their cases.

"What the hell have you got in here, Scully? It must weigh about a ton!"

Scully just smirked at him again, ignoring the question. She took a quick glance at the exterior of the hotel made of blue colored glass with metal framework and followed Monica into the hotel. The inside was breathtaking, all posh marble floors and golden ornamental pieces dotted around the reception area. Mulder and Scully both stopped to admire the artwork on the ceiling, there was a clear blue sky painted on it with beautifully crafted gold cherubs suspended slightly beneath the painting, looking into the endless blue from below. It was like the art was meant for them, telling them that their love for one another was so clear and true that they could see very little beyond it.

As they finally got to the top of the marble staircase, they reached a landing where their feet almost sank into the thick wine colored carpet. Monica pushed Mulder to a door on the left of the staircase, where John and Skinner were waiting for him. They also were in on the secret, and quickly fell silent as Mulder entered the room.

Monica led Scully into the room they were sharing. This part of the hotel also had marble floors but only in the bathroom, where the porcelain bath was encrusted with gold. The bedroom itself had two large four-poster beds, the frame was a dark oak wood and the bed covers were the same wine color as the plush carpets that were in every room of the hotel. Scully knelt down on the floor and unzipped one of the suitcases Mulder had carried into the room for her. She pulled out the very garment she had been hiding from Mulder for the past couple of days, to show it to Monica.
