Chapter Fifteen

Scully has been up for hours, getting everything ready for the twins' first day at school. They are looking forward to it, yet she is not. Mulder is cooking their favorite breakfast - boiled egg and soldiers. The eggs are in the pan, he is cutting the toast into little strips and Scully is supervising them in the bathroom. Both of them are in matching red check summer dresses and are nervous yet excited. They can't wait to go to school. Their parents aren't as excited about it. They walk into the kitchen as their breakfast is being placed on the table and they sit down to eat.

"It seems like only yesterday they were still in nappies."

"Yeah! Thank god they're not anymore!"

"Mulder, what are we gonna occupy ourselves with when they're in school."

A wicked gleam came into his eye and he smiled,

"Oh, I can think of a few things."

She gave him a playful thump on the arm - a little too hard than she intended and he yelped. Rubbing his arm he was whimpering. Scully just rolled her eyes.

"If you wanna make it up to me, c'mere."

He pulled her toward him and planted kisses all over her face. She was giggling and eventually tried to wriggle away. He refused to let go until he caught a glimpse of his watch - 8:30 am.

"Scully, if your mom wants to come with us, then you'd better go and wake her."

He let his arms flop to his sides as she walked away from him to Maggie's bedroom. She gave the door a light tap and opened it,

"Mom, are you coming with us?"

Maggie gave a groan and a croaky 'yes' as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes and sat up.

At a quarter to nine, they were settled in their car, Monica and John with Angelle and Jonathon were in another car. At the school gates, they all poured hurriedly out of the car. Aimee and Angelle were almost running through the gates but Helene hung back. She did want to go to school, but as usual she was afraid of the new people she was going to meet. She clung onto Mulder's trousers and started to cry. Her father lifted her up and carried her toward the gates, still crying.

"I don't want to go to school anymore!"

"Helene, you've got to, what else have you got to do all day when your sister and Angelle are in school and you aren't?"

"I can play with Storme and Rogue..."

Mulder gave a short laugh and set her back on the ground. She was looking up at him with tears still pooling in her eyes.

"No, baby, you can't. You have to go into school. The quicker you go in - the quicker you'll get used to it."

She gave Mulder a perfect replica of the Scully eyebrow and shrugged her shoulders.

"Fine! It's your fault if I'm not talking to you!"

With that, she turned around and traipsed into the school to catch up with the other two. Scully sighed, and headed with the others back to the car.

Actually, I think I should end this one where it is ... so you can look forward to the sequel which will begin sometime soon and is set ten years forward this time ...
