Chapter 6 – Average Day No. 4 ½
Mulder and Scully left the police station with Jamie. He wanted to take them to the crime scene again, even though Scully had insisted that they had been there and she already knew there was nothing to see. But Jamie insisted and Scully figured she was getting paid for it anyway. She didn't really want to look at the body anyway. She didn't really care. She was pretty sure at this point that Jamie just wanted to be around Mulder because he wanted him or something.
Once they got there Jamie pointed out the dog's grave, which Scully already knew about. Then he pointed to where the body had been. Scully pretended to investigate. She put some sand in an evidence bag and shoved it into her pocket. Jamie started to talk about the cliff and pointed at it. Scully thought at that point it would be fun to pretend she was deaf so she shut off her hearing and just started at Jamie and nodded every now and then. She followed him back to his car and turned her hearing back on so she would know where they were going then. She laughed to herself. She was now the master of selective hearing and Mulder wasn't. Awesome.
"Let's take a break. It's getting toward lunch. How 'bout a doughnut shop?" Jamie asked. Scully shook her head no, but Mulder nodded excitedly. Jamie looked at him and nodded excitedly too. Looks like she had no choice. When they got to Granny's Yummy Doughnuts of Delight Mulder ordered a jelly doughnut. Scully knew this would be trouble. He always had a problem with eating them. She was right of course. When he opened up his mouth to take a bite instantly all of the jelly fell out the other end.
"Uh oh," he said as he looked at his lap. He never used napkins and he was too stupid to eat it over the plate. He looked at Scully with a tear in his eye. She wasn't sure if he was sad for losing all the jelly or because he spilled it all over his pants. She was never sure. It happened every time...and she still didn't know. He looked at his doughnut and started to cry. He ran out to the car, dropping his doughnut and dripping jelly on the way. Good he could just pout in the car some more. Jamie looked upset.
"Something wrong, Jamie?" Scully asked.
"He dropped his doughnut. Poor little thing." He got up and scooped up the doughnut with a napkin. He dropped in the wastebasket as if that was it's proper burial and returned to his seat across from Scully. "So, what do you think about this case?"
"I already said. It's stupid. I want to go home."
"Oh. Well, I was hoping for theories."
"Let's see...my theory is...this case is stupid. I want to go home."
"Fair enough." He looked out the window to Mulder sitting in the car. "You think he's got any other theories?"
"I know he's got other theories. Go talk to him. It'll be a good time I promise." Jamie lit up.
"Really?"
"Oh yeah. He'll be full of them. Go pry them out." Jamie nodded and ran to the car. Thank God she was rid of them for thirty seconds. She then realized she was bored and curious so she went out the car too.
"I think that it was possibly caused by aliens. Or maybe elbow licking," she caught Mulder saying as she entered the car.
"Mulder, please tell me that you don't believe this is caused by elbow licking," Scully said.
"Well, the guys said that he was weird because he could lick his elbow and most normal people can't. I believe that perhaps because he can lick his elbow he decomposes faster than normal people."
"Why the hell would you think that? What would elbow licking have to do with decomposition!"
"Nothing. But if he is not a normal person maybe he is not a normal dead person either." Scully stared at him in disbelief.
"You're an idiot."
"Why are you so mean?"
"I'm not. I'm telling the truth. Can we please go back to the hotel now?"
"Why, it's only one in the afternoon?" Jamie said.
"I know. I want to contemplate my life. Please?" Jamie nodded. He dropped them off at the police department so they could take their car back. When they got back Scully immediately tried to hole herself in her room, but Mulder would have none of it. He had retrieved a stapler and was shooting them at Scully and saying what appeared to be a magic spell.
"Mulder. What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to extract the evil demons from you."
"With a stapler?"
"A magic stapler," he corrected her.
"Right. Whatever. Is it working."
"No. Maybe if you called of the flying pigs that guard you it would." Scully looked around. She saw no flying pigs. She shook her head and just decided to go along with it.
"Ok. They are called off." The faster he went away the better. If this was what it took, so be it.
"There. The evil demons are extracted. Now I shall put them into myself and rule all. Mwahahahaha!" Scully blinked.
"Ok, you have fun. Now go away."
"No. Now that I have your demons I can read your dream waves."
"What are dream waves?" Mulder looked confused.
"What are you talking about? Sometimes you are dumb Scully." He sighed and went to his room. She quietly thanked God that he had left.
A/N: That was fun. And more confusing and stupid. Please review my tasty ones.
