Storm suddenly woke up a couple hours later. Scully was sitting on the sofa chair reading a book. The teenager yawned and stretched.
"Morning Storm," Scully said as she looked over at her daughter. Storm mumbled and rubbed her eyes.
"How was your nap?" Scully asked as she looked back at her book. Storm yawned again.
"It was good. Sorry for falling asleep Mom. I don't know why I was tired," Storm tried to explain. Scully looked over at her daughter again.
"It's fine Storm, but you need to understand, you better not be up all night tonight," Scully scolded. Storm nodded.
"I won't Mom, I promise," Storm replied. Scully smiled and went back to her book.
A little while later, Mulder walked down the stairs. Storm was absorbed into a TV show on the History channel, while Scully was finishing up her book.
"Hey, what do you want for dinner Scully?" Mulder asked as he walked into the living room. Scully looked up at her husband and smiled.
"You choose whatever you want Mulder. Just no pizza again," Scully explained as she shot a look at Storm. The teenager grumbled and kept watching TV. Mulder laughed.
"Aww why not?" Mulder said with a grin. Scully crossed her arms.
"If you do, you're sleeping on the couch alone tonight," Scully threatened. Mulder stuck his tongue out at his wife.
"Your threats don't scare me," Mulder smirked. Scully rolled her eyes. Storm watched her parents and sat up on the couch.
"You two are weird," Storm mumbled as she tried to watch TV. Mulder laughed and kissed on Scully. Storm looked over at her mother.
"I don't get why you married Dad. He's old and weird," Storm said to her mother. Scully gave her daughter a look. Mulder was taken by surprise.
"Your Dad is the most amazing man I've ever met. He's extremely sweet and supportive. Also, he was extremely attractive when I met him," Scully explained. Mulder gave his wife a look.
"Was attractive? What's that supposed to mean?!" Mulder huffed unhappily.
"Oh be quiet. You're still extremely handsome," Scully spoke as she kissed on her husband. Mulder smiled and snuggled on his wife.
"Mom, you're not old and wrinkly like he is though," Storm tried to explain. Scully crossed her arms.
"Storm Katherine Mulder! You knock this off right now! Stop trying to make your father feel bad," Scully scolded. Storm grumbled and went back to watching TV. Mulder looked over at his wife, obviously upset.
"Storm, apologize to your father. You upset him," Scully scolded again. Storm ignored her mother and kept watching TV. Scully became irritated.
"Storm apologize right now or I'm taking the TV," the woman scolded again. Storm grumbled.
"Sorry Dad. I didn't mean to upset you," Storm replied. Scully sighed.
"Hun, we'll finish the pizza up for dinner. For now I want us spending time with Storm," Scully explained. Mulder nodded and sat next to his daughter. The teenager huffed and watched TV.
Thirty minutes later Mulder tried to sit close to his daughter. Storm sighed and laid on her father. Mulder looked over at his wife and grinned. Scully smiled.
Suddenly Scully left the room. Storm looked up at her father confused. Mulder snuggled on his daughter a bit and went back to watching TV. Storm mumbled as her father gave her attention.
Soon Scully returned to the living room. She was holding a few photo albums. The older woman sat on the other side of her daughter. Storm looked up at her mother.
"Here Stormy. I want to show you a few things, okay?" Scully spoke softly. Storm nodded and sat up on the couch. Mulder smiled at his daughter.
"Look. Here are some photos of your father and I before we had you," Scully smiled at her daughter. Storm laid on her mother as she went through the photo albums.
"Aww look Stormy, this is the first time I got to hold you," Mulder grinned. Storm looked up at her father and smiled. Mulder returned the smile and snuggled on his daughter.
"You guys look different," Storm looked up at her parents. Scully smiled and loved on her daughter a bit.
"How did you and Dad meet, Mom?" Storm suddenly asked. Scully smiled at her daughter and brushed Storm's hair out of her eyes. Mulder looked over at his wife. Storm never really asked how they met before.
"Well, I was still fairly new at the F.B.I., and they needed someone to work with your father. I knew of your Dad before they assigned me to work with him," Scully explained. Storm nodded.
"Everyone thought your Dad was weird. He was a good agent, but he was hard to work with. We worked together for about nine years before your Dad decided to leave the bureau. We still kept seeing each other though. Soon we got married and I found out I was having a baby, who turned out to be you," Scully smiled. Storm nodded. Mulder grinned at his wife.
"I'm going to reheat the pizza," Mulder said as he left the room. Scully smiled, and returned to paying attention to her daughter. Storm was looking through the photo album.
"Mom?" Storm looked up at her mother. Scully brushed her hair behind her ear and smiled at her daughter.
"What is it sweetie?" Scully spoke softly.
"Can I have this photo of you and Dad?" Storm looked up at her mother. Scully gave her daughter a look. The teenager asked again.
Scully looked down at the photo album to see what photo her daughter was asking about. It was a photo of her and Mulder taken right after they got married while on their honeymoon. Mulder was standing behind his wife grinning while holding her close to him. Scully was smiling and holding her stomach.
"Yes you may Stormy," Scully spoke softly. Storm grinned at her mother as she removed the photo. The teenager quickly grabbed onto the photo and held it close.
"Are you two coming or not?" Mulder called from the kitchen. Storm quickly got off the couch and ran to the kitchen. Scully smiled, put the albums away, and followed her child.
After dinner, Storm was yawning yet again. Scully gave her daughter a concerned look and felt her forehead. Storm grumbled.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Storm asked unhappily. Scully shushed her daughter and pulled her hand away. Storm messed with her hair.
"Are you feeling okay? You've been tired all day, and you slept for twelve hours last night," Scully asked with a concerned tone to her voice. Storm shrugged and looked at her mother.
"You wanna watch a movie Stormy?" Scully asked softly. Storm nodded and followed her mother back to the couch. The older woman turned on a movie, while her daughter cuddled up to her.
Half way through the movie, Storm was fast asleep oh her mother's lap. Mulder walked downstairs and into the living room. Scully looked up at her husband and smiled.
"Asleep again?" Mulder asked with a concerned tone to his voice. Scully nodded. Mulder crouched down next to his daughter.
"I don't think she feels well, even though she says she feels okay," Scully explained. Mulder nodded and woke his daughter. Storm whined and rubbed her eyes.
"Stormy, you need to go to bed," Mulder instructed. Storm shook her head and tried to watch the movie. Scully ran her fingers through her daughter's hair.
"Stormy, you need to listen to your father," Scully instructed. Storm looked up at her mother. Mulder sat his daughter up. Storm grumbled.
"Come on Storm, let's go," Mulder spoke firmly as Scully made her daughter stand up. Storm became upset. Scully handed Storm her new photo and led her upstairs.
"Mom, I wanna finish the movie," Storm tried explaining. Scully shushed her daughter and helped her into bed. The older woman felt her daughter's forehead again.
"Mom," Storm mumbled. Scully kissed on her daughter and covered her with a blanket. Storm yawned and snuggled into her pillow. Scully smiled and left the bedroom.
"How is she?" Mulder asked as Scully entered their bedroom. Scully sighed.
"I'm not sure. She might have the start of a fever, but I can't tell. Hopefully she sleeps through the night," Scully explained. Mulder nodded and laid down in bed. Scully smiled, climbed into bed, and snuggled up to her husband. Mulder held his wife close and dozed off.
