Every Dog Has His Day
Chapter 1
Special Agent Dana Scully walked into the X-Files office to see her partner, Special Agent Fox Mulder, sitting at his desk chewing on a sunflower seed while reading over an old case file (Detour). This surprised her since lately she was the one who arrived at the office at the lovely hour of seven o'clock. Mulder usually arrived at 7:30. "What are you doing here so early Mulder?" Scully asked.
"Good morning to you too Scully." Mulder said looking up from the file.
"Sorry Mulder. I'm just used to being the first one here." When you don't stay here all night and go home. She added in her mind. After working for 5 years together she still could not get him to go home and rest when working on a hard X-File. "Why are reading an old case file?"
"Just thinking about the good times." He joked. Scully rolled her eyes.
"Oh sure Mulder, being lost in the woods, at night, while some killer animal was on the loose. That was one hell of a night if you ask me."
"Moth men Scully, moth men. Besides, was spending a night alone in the wilderness with ole Spooky that bad? You make it sound like torture." He gave her a fake wounded look.
"No it was that team seminar we almost had to go to that was torture." Scully said with small smile. Mulder shuddered at the thought that he almost had go to one of those pointless things. Scully hung up her coat and sat down. "Anything special on today's schedule?" She asked almost regretting the answer.
"File reports." Scully groaned. She rathered be out chasing aliens with Mulder than working a file report. The day passed on in a comfortable silence. It was around 3:30 when Mulder finally broke it.
"Hey Scully are you doing anything tonight?" He asked casually.
"No not really…Why?"
"Well, I was um, wondering if you would like to join me for dinner tonight." He said afraid of the answer.
"Are asking me on a date?" She said teasingly.
"Its whatever you want it to be." He countered back.
"Well than I will be delighted to take up on the offer as long as you are paying." Scully replied.
"Now Scully what makes you think that I would leave you the bill?" Scully just gave him her famous raised eye brow. Mulder glanced at his watch, stood up and strode to the door. "I'll pick you up at seven ok?"
"Where are you going?"
"Over to the Lone Gunmen's. They said that they had something they wanted me to see." He called over his shoulder as he walked out the door.
"I'm coming with you." Scully said as she picked up her coat. "I have done enough file reports to last a lifetime!" She exclaimed.
"Don't you think you are exaggerating?" He said.
"Like I'm the one who exaggerates around here." She replied.
"Are you saying that I exaggerate?" He said with mock surprise. By now they had reached the parking garage and were heading in different directions towards their cars. She sighed.
"I'll meet you at the Gunmen's."
Little did they know that they were being watched, Mulder in particular.
