Chapter 7 – Average Day No. 4 3/4
The morgue called Scully up that night around 8:00. She was immediately angry because it would do little to look at some kids composed corpse when she didn't even care. She decided that she would just pretend that she cared and stare at the body for a while. Who knows, maybe she would find something cool, like keys in his stomach. She always liked finding objects in people. She knew that it had to be painful. She smiled.
She had hoped to leave without Mulder noticing, but when she went out to the car he was already sitting in the driver's seat. She got a confused look on her face as she approached the car and climbed into the passenger seat. She looked over at him as she shut the door.
"Mulder? What are you doing out here?" She asked. He stared ahead, unblinking.
"I'm watching." He answered.
"What exactly are you watching? You can only see our doors because they are RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!" She found that strangely obvious that he could see nothing else. I mean, all you need are eyes to know that there is merely a wall and two doors there. But they would have to be working eyes. If you were blind that wouldn't work so well. Well, I guess you could just have one working eye. You really don't have to have two of them to see a wall there.
"I'm keeping watch, Scully." He looked at her finally. "For the herd," he said quietly. He pouted. She realized that he just wanted to be like her. It was cute in a creepy grown up way.
"Aww, that's sweet. But that's my mom's job tonight. It's my herd. My family. You aren't involved, stupid," she said lovingly.
"Oh." He looked down and she saw a tear slide down his nose.
"Mulder, get out." She pushed him slightly. He looked up at her all sad. "No. Get out." She pushed him again. He grudgingly opened the door and got out of the car. She slid over and drove away. He was left to only his tears and the cold night air. What? Were you expecting her to be nice and say, 'but you can watch tonight too, I guess' or 'We accept you though'? Hell no. This is Scully we are talking about here. What is wrong with you?
Scully drove to the morgue like a mad woman. Both because she was a woman and because she was mad. Once she got there she put on her dead body inspecting garb and walked into the bright autopsy room. The body lay on the cold autopsy bed. She looked around. It was all autopsy-y. She looked at what was basically bones now. He had only been dead a couple days and already there was nothing left.
She poked the bones and noticed that his upper arm was shorter than regular people's upper arms. Giving proof to the fact that he could probably lick his elbow. One of the parts that remained intact however was a vein that ran from his elbow to the rest of his body. She found this odd because it should've composed with the rest of the body. She poked it and it shrunk up and disintegrated. She looked around. What the hell? She immediately got pissed because Mulder could've been right.
She put the body away after sending in some DNA samples. She wanted to see if there were any abnormalities before she went to Mulder telling him he was right but she didn't believe him anyway.
A/N: Sorry that took so long. I've been entertained with my friends and such. Reply my sweet lesbian/men lovers.
