Chapter Two, Tears and Go-cart

MPOV

I think Scully really liked what happened last night, I mean, she must have. After all, she came running to the stage and gave me the most passionate look ever, like a wild tiger and then she gave me this huge kiss. After that we drove home and she sang Thriller all the way to our apartment, her old one.

"Honey?" she says and enters the room, I can see in her eyes that she's been crying. It is probably for the same reason as the day before yesterday and the day before that and the day before that and... She has been crying for a long time now and it is not very often that I can manage to make her stop. She wants a child and she knows that she won't be able to get one, ever.

"Come here", I say and pull her up in my lap where I sit on the couch.

"Why can't I be a mother? Would I be such a bad one? Is it something I've done?" she sobs into my chest.

"No, sweetie. You would be a great mom, and there's always adoption, and..."

"And what?" she asks miserably. "Maybe the best thing would be if I shot myself so you didn't have to live with this weeping trash doll you've got to wife."

"Hey, Dana, you're being childish now, I love you and you know that. What would be better if you shot yourself? "

Next morning I wake her up early with a cup of coffee.

"I'm sorry for acting so childish last night, I guess it's just my biological clock and..." she says.

"Shh... Drink up your coffee now, we have to go soon or we'll be late."

"Late for what, or who?" she asks.

"If I told you it wouldn't be a surprise", I tell her.

We drive for about half an hour before we get to the place I wanted her to se... An old warehouse. It is very dark and cold inside of it, but suddenly someone lights a big pair of spotlights.

"Greetings Agent Mulder", a man said.

"Cut the crap, Frohi", I tell him and walk over to him with Scully right behind me. "How's it going?"

"Oh, just fine... Byers and Langly are out buying some new parts to the cars, but we're soon ready to open up."

"Open up what?" I hear Scully ask.

"Haven't you told her, Mulder?" Frohike asks. "Anyway, The Lone Gunmen isn't so very... succeeded and we've been planning to open up a go-cart racing arena and then we're going to compete and se if we can get some money out from that."

"Yeah", I say. "I was wondering if we could do a test drive, me and Scully?"

"Mulder", I hear her say. "I don't think this is such a good idea..."

"Why not?" I ask a bit surprised.

"It's not gonna be a pretty sight when you start to weep because I crushed you totally and completely like a rotten tomato," she says with a smile.

"Yeah, right!"

And so the competition started, Scully won ten times out of nine, but that was only because we had Frohike as the judge and then I let her win the first time. Or maybe it actually was because she was better... No, it can't be so.

"That was fun", she say to me on our way to a restaurant. (I promised her to take her out if she won.)

"Yea, I think so too."

"I'm talking about beating you, Mulder," she says with a childish smile, which makes me understand why I love her so.
