I know I know it been a while, but I figured I should update it.

4:15 pm

In the Campbell's Neighborhood

Mulder and Scully walked inside the Campbell's home. He hoped that the suspect wouldn't know the difference.

"Scully I'm going to set up surveillance in the living room and kitchen windows. You go to the back and take Max out to let him do what he does best." He said with a smile. She just gave him an eye roll.

"Since when did I start taking orders from him? Come on Max time for you to do the do."

Mean while outside a black car rolled to a stop two door down to the right of the backyard entrance. He would wait until nightfall to make his move. Doing anything this earlier in the day would ruin everything.

"Mulder I got the suspect in view. Seems to me he'll probably wait until night falls. Looks like it's going to be another long night."

"Scully this is a piece of cake don't you think? We've both been through worst."

"Honestly Mulder, this is not a real x-files cases. These kinds of cases are like kicks in the ass. Do you think we'll get the x-files back soon?"

"I guess your right I hope it all goes according to plan. I want to be relaxing by 9 o'clock."

"Better make that 10:00 Mulder, we'll have to finish our report first."

"Tonight Scully? but it's a Sunday." Mulder pouted

"Exactly better to do it now to get it out of the way. Besides there won't be much to write about."

"Let's catch a movie or something on TV"

Scully grabbed the remote and turned it to Lifetime, being that it was late on a Sunday afternoon she figured a good movie should be on. Mulder looked at her with a mocking expression.

"Lifetime Scully? I know we can find something else better to watch."

"Mulder some of the movies on here are interesting."

"Whatever you say, I think I might take a quick nap." He said laying his head back.

"MULDER? What do you think your doing? You can't fall asleep; we're on a steak out. Why do you always leave me to do the work? Look we don't have to watch Lifetime, but you can't not fall asleep and leave me to keep watch over a dog and do surveillance." she was leaning over him at this point.

"Oooky G-woman." Mulder said opening his eyes and placing his hands on her shoulders pushing her back down on the couch. We'll watch TV and do the surveillance together.

"Good"

After a few minutes to let Scully cool down Mulder felt it was safe to speak again. He laid his head on her shoulder trying to get more comfortable. He began to nuzzle her neck a little

"You know I've never told you this before Scully, but I like it when you get angry."

"Mulder?" Scully asked suggestively, turning and moving her face in toward his lips.

"Yes, Scully?"

"Try anything and you'll be sleeping on the couch, alone, tonight?"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

About 2 hours later

"What was that?" Scully asked sitting up quickly, Knocking Mulder off of her shoulder.

"What? I didn't hear anything."

"No I heard something, it came from the garage."

She quickly got up and pulled her weapon out of its holster. She headed toward the kitchen, which lead into the garage. Only turning back making sure Mulder had her covered.

In the garage a figured stood still having knocked over a paint can while reaching for the anti freeze container. Not knowing if anybody in the house had heard, he quickly moved to the corner closest to the door. He was too agitated to move. Slowly he stooped down behind two file cabinets that were to the right of the garage near the back door.

Scully slowly opened the garage door holding her gun in the air ready to aim at will. She slowly scanned the far side of the garage before stepping into the room full.

"If there is anybody in here, I suggest you give yourself up. We are FBI Agents and we're armed. If you try to escape we'll catch you with any means necessary."

Mulder moved to the left while Scully went to the right. She slowly moved sensing that someone was there and not knowing if the person was armed or not.

"I'm going to say this again, I'm a FBI Agent and I am armed give yourself up now." Just as Scully went to move around the file cabinet the man jumped up and pushed her backward into some boxes before jetting out of the door.

"Hey, she yelled jumping and going after him." Thinking to her self, I can't believe he pushed me down.

"Scully??" Mulder yelled turning in her direction just in time to see her figure move out the doorway.

"PUT YOUR HANDS UP AND STOP" she yelled running after the suspect at full speed. He ran around a park car. Scully jump on the hood and slide over to the other side landing on her feet not missing a beat.

"I said put you hands up and stop. You have already assaulted a federal officer don't make me shoot you." she yelled gaining on him with every step. Just as he made it to his car she caught up with him, yanking him back by his shirt away from the car and throwing him on to the ground. She rolled him over and grabbed both of his arms locking handcuffs on him.

"Hey the next time I say stop, I mean stop you son of a bitch!" She yelled lifting his head up off the ground and then pulling him to his feet. Just as she did so Mulder and the back p officers made it over.

"Great job Scully, You'll have to teach me that car slide. I didn't know your little legs had it in you."

"Yeah right Mulder, I hate when people don't stop when i tell them too."

"I'll have to remember that."

After making sure the area was secure and that the Campbell's where settled in safely. Mulder, Scully, and Max made it back to Mulder's apartment. Max would be staying with them for one more night. Tomorrow they would take him and everything he needed over to the Campbell's, they had decided to adopt Max after all.

Mulder was seated on the sofa while Scully was seated at his desk. Both were busy typing the finishing touches on their reports before turning in for the night.

"Hey Scully, want to play scrabble?"

"Scrabble, since when did you play scrabble Mulder?"

"Well I played a lot in college, I don't play to much now a days because I don't have anyone to play with, but since your here I thought that I'd dig it out and we could play a game or too."

"Sounds like fun, but I have to finish my report."

"No problem I'll set it up."

Mulder went over to the hall closet and started looking through his stuff.

"I know its in here somewhere." Mulder said while throwing stuff out of the closet.

"Having problems Mulder?" Scully asked smiling at his fustration.

"Got it!!" Mulder yelled. He picked up all his junk and through it back in the closet just in time to see Scully closing her lap top.

"Ready to experience what its like to go up against the best scrabble player in the world ?" Mulder asked while clearing the dining room table.

"Oh its so on Mulder and no cheating."

"Scully? Why would I need to cheat????"

"Mulder put your words where your mouth is."
