Sorry it's been a while, keep on r&r please!
A long, hot bath had worked wonders for Agent Scully. She was now sprawled out on her bed in only a towel watching some T.V. While relaxing she was able to think calmly about what Mulder had said to her, and she realized she had taken him entirely too seriously. She knew he was probably in his hotel room at that moment worrying about his actions. She was right.
Mulder sat in his room at the edge of his bed. He had been thinking for hours now about what he had said to his partner. There weren't many people that could make him nervous, and Scully was one of them. She gave the worst silent treatment he had ever encountered. She was worse then his own mother for Christ's sake. He had dropped her off at her room at around noon, it was now four and a half hours later and she had not even called him. Finally he stood up from his bed and grabbed his jacket. It was time to end this nonsense.
As he walked down the hall to her room he could feel his heart beat coming close to the surface of his chest, he didn't know what kind of reaction her was going to get. He stepped calmly up to the door and tried hard to cover his nervous exterior with his usual cocky and confident nature. He knocked three times and stood there for a while waiting for a response.
Scully was inside, she had just thrown on some clothes. She had decided to give Mulder until 5 o'clock, and then she would have called him. She knew that he would be hungry by then, and his appetite outweighed any other emotions. She smiled when she heard the knocking. Success.
As she opened the door, he stood in front of her in his usual out of work clothing. He seemed completely normal which through her off a bit. She had expected him to be down and apologetic.
"I was gonna go grab something to eat, you game?" He asked as he let himself in to her room.
"Yeah, just let me grab my jacket." Mulder stepped aside so that she could get to her jacket. He could tell she was a little surprised that he hadn't apologized to her right off the bat. He loved to keep her guessing.
They walked a short distance from there hotel to a local diner. While they ate their conversation remained very casual as it always did. All issues that had arisen earlier that day were forgotten, and they sat there as two friends enjoying some time off from work.
"I think we should check out this Lovers Lane place." Mulder said to his partner as the waitress brought over the check.
"Are you trying to pick me up Mulder?" She asked with a slight smirk on her face. It was the first smile she had shown him all day. He sighed slightly in relief.
"It's only a couple minutes from here, and we can shine our flashlights in some kid's cars and scare them a bit." The both laughed at the thought.
Mulder was right. The so called 'Lover's Lane' was only about ten minutes from the diner they had eaten at. It was just starting to get dark, and there were two other cars already at the site.
"Looks like there's some kind of early bird special running tonight." Mulder said as he looked over at one of the cars. The windows were already fogged up.
"To be young again." Scully said as she peered out over the mountain. All the lights of the small town could be seen from this point.
"Mulder, so you smell that?" Scully asked as she turned her attention away from the view.
"Yeah actually, I do." He looked over at the car to the left of them. The windows were slightly fogged but one of the windows was cracked.
"Their smoking weed." Scully whispered to him.
"Ah, to be young again." He said with a smile. Scully just looked at him in a bit of shock.
"Mulder, I'm learning about things you did in your childhood that I never would have suspected. Making out with girls in cars, smoking marijuana." She said with a completely sarcastic tone.
"Just because you were daddy's little girl doesn't mean nobody else had any fun." He turned slightly so he was facing her more. He admired how the far off lights reflected off of her pale skin. She could feel him looking at her this way and turned her attention back to the view.
"So what are we supposed to be accomplishing up hear?" She asked him
"Nothing really, I'm just trying to get lucky." Just then, they heard footsteps outside of there car in the distance. They could see a figure in the darkness.
"Whoever that is is looking right at us." Scully said a bit nervous.
"C'mere." He said grabbing her arm. Before she could even respond his lips were on hers. At first she was completely shocked at his actions. In her mind she tried to think of any logical explanation for him kissing her. His lips made it impossible for her to think, her mind was completely fogged. He gently tugged at her lips with his and placed his hand on her cheek. He had kept an eye open to see who was outside of the car. He was happy to see that it was just a young girl getting back in to her boyfriends car. Mulder had seen her get in the car, but hadn't bothered to let his partner know, she hadn't heard the car door slam either. As they sat there kissing, Mulder could feel his partner relaxing under his touch, he decided he'd better break form the kiss before she got suspicious. He broke away breathless, her cheeks were flushed with color.
"I didn't want us to look suspicious." Mulder said breathlessly.
"Yeah I figured." She said completely lying, and a bit crushed.
"Well, you've officially been to first base while parking." He said with a smile.
"Too bad I'm not 16 Mulder." Her cheeks were still flushed with color. She tried to hide this in the darkness of the night. She failed, completely.
