Hi everybody thanks for the answer to my question and all the reviews you guys really are an inspiration to me, thanks for all the support. Well here's the next chapter.
It was later that night that Danni was looking over a few of her clothes looking for the right thing to wear. Scully had been in her kitchen and was working over the stove trying to hurry before Mulder got there. It was a quarter to six and she still hadn't showered yet, let alone decided on what she was going to wear. It was only a few quiet minutes that passed before Danni exited the bedroom and entered the kitchen inhaling the aroma of dinner.
"Smells good, Dana." She said smiling looking over what they were going to eat. Pasta filled one of the pots and sauce another, while garlic bread cooked in the oven.
"It should be ready in a few more minutes." She mumbled more to herself.
"Why don't you go and take a shower? I'll watch it from here." Danni said walking over to the fridge for something to drink.
"Are you sure?" she asked heading towards her bedroom.
"Sure as can be, no problem." Danni called back to her.
Scully had showered quickly and looked through her clothes, she had to dress as if she was supposed to be impressing Mulder, but nothing she had came even close to that. Instead she ended up settling for a pair of black jeans and a white V-top. Though it was far from being as revealing as what Danni wore, a beige halter top and matching mini skirt, it seemed to do just fine for her. She quietly walked out of her bedroom and into the kitchen to find Danni on the phone talking away. The garlic brad sat on a plate while the pasta awaited serving.
"No Auntie Maggie, Dana is dating her partner, Fox Mulder." Danni said into the phone laughing. Quickly Scully reached for the phone and made a grab for it, but ended up missing and landing her hip right into the corner of the table. "Ok, here Dana, your mommy wants to talk to you."
"Mom?" she questioned taking the phone from her cousin with one hand while she rubbed her hip with the other. "No, mom Danni's a little drunk." She whispered the lie hoping her cousin couldn't hear from the room she had walked into. Just then the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Danni called running out of the room and to the door like a child awaiting the ice cream man.
"No that's just the pizza man." She lied walking in the opposite direction of the door. "I got to go mom, I'll talk to you later. Ok I love you too, bye." She quickly hung up the phone and rushed to the front door to see Mulder carrying what looked like a bottle of wine and Danni unsuccessfully flirting with him.
"No, no, no. I just feel that sometimes one should feel comfortable in their own skin." She said smiling her 'innocent' smile. One she had started using at the age of five.
"I agree, however, what one may feel as comfortable maybe too much for another." He said getting a small smile from Scully as she made her way over to the two. Danni moved slightly to the side to let him in, once the door was closed he leaned over Scully and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek, it took all her will power not to hit him...or kiss him back.
"I see you brought me some red wine." She said looking to the bottle as he handed it to her.
"I know what you like." He said following her into the kitchen, leaving a confused Danni behind them.
After dinner and desert, which consisted of chocolate ice cream, Danni had announced her leave to bed and wished them both a good night. After which Mulder helped Scully with the dishes and cleaning of the kitchen. They had spent a few hours talking about anything and everything, mostly about how they were going to keep the charade up and how long they thought they could get away with it. It was around two in the morning when Scully had given a faint yawn and relaxed against Mulder's side, slowly letting her eyes drift closed as she fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning Scully was given a rude wake up call by the sound of the shower running and Danni's annoying attempt at singing from the bathroom. Looking up she found herself in her bed in the same clothes from the previous night, a small letter was on her night stand. Mulder had explained how he had enjoyed the previous night and left earlier in the morning. She involuntarily smiled to herself and fell back into the bed only to look to the clock and find that she was running an hour late. She jumped out of bed and dressed quickly only to run out of the apartment without even thinking twice about breakfast.
The elevator ding told Mulder that Scully had finally arrived. As she entered the office she looked a bit of a mess and tired. He quickly handed her a coffee and a bagel with cream cheese, something she took happily and gave him a smile for.
"Late wake up call?" he asked smiling over at her as she drank and ate.
"Very, I woke up to Danni singing." She said smiling over to him.
"Now that's just scary." He joked along with her, then handed her a file.
"Another case?" she asked opening it up.
"Just a small one, nothing really big, but I thought it would keep you away from your cousin for a while." He explained knowing she wouldn't turn 'the case' down if it meant staying away from her cousin.
"What does it involve?" she asked looking to the blank folder.
"You and me, dinner tonight. I'll take you to a nice restaurant." He answered honestly and smiled when she agreed to it.
It had been later that day that the two entered the main part of the FBI to see one of the other fellow female agents running towards them, or away from something else. As she got closer to them she fell back on her pace and turned to talk to Mulder.
"Do you remember that woman you helped out yesterday?" she questioned after saying her usual friendly hello's to both of them.
"Yeah what about her?"
"Cinderella needs help again." she said turning to leave, heading in the opposite direction from whence she came.
Scully quickly rushed over to the small cubicles that consisted of, well nothing. They were completely empty, but the sounds of voices and laughing could be heard in the distance. Scully looked to the only woman brave enough to handle the chaos. She looked up to them, smiled then pointed in the direction of a small room. As they neared the voices grew louder and the laughter was almost unbearable.
"Danni?" Scully called looking over the crowd of people to search for her cousin.
"Speaking of the devil." They heard somebody say before the group opened up and Danni could be seen sitting on a desk talking away.
Scully quickly rushed in to her cousin's side; however, Mulder was pulled to the side by another agent and was informed on the conversation that had taken place. He quickly took Mulder's hand, gave it a shake and mumbled something about how happy he was for them. Mulder looked at him oddly almost uncertain he had heard him correctly.
"Danni, what the hell are you doing here?" Scully asked pulling her cousin off of the table.
"I came looking for you, I forgot how to get down to the basement, then I got lost in a conversation with these fine gentlemen." She said smiling.
"Let's go." Taking her hand, Scully lead Danni out of the mob and over to Mulder who still held a confused look on his face, it quickly changed as he saw Scully approaching him. If she knew what her cousin had said she would be pissed, not to mention most likely end up serving time in prison for murder of her family member. Mulder watched as the agent that had spoken to him made his way over to the two. Agent Matthews quickened his pace and offered Scully his hand.
"Congratulations on you and Mulder finally getting together, now that almost everybody knows you don't have to hide it for much longer, soon everybody will know."
Scully looked to her cousin and gave her a look of pure hate, Danni merely shrugged and smiled. Passing by Mulder Scully mumbled something about going home sick and seeing him later that night. He stood confused watching his partner and her cousin walk towards the elevator. As the door closed he thought he saw Danni wink and blow him a kiss, something wasn't right.
"Why the hell did you tell everybody?" Scully asked later that day as they had arrived home.
"I thought everybody already knew I accidentally brought it up. I mean you've been dating for a while right? I thought everybody knew." She said a sly grin made its way across her face.
"We like to keep it a secret. It's not really allowed." She explained moving into the kitchen for some water.
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't know. Oh, well, now they do." She said smiling making her way into her bedroom.
Scully hadn't seen Danni in a few hours and as the minutes ticked by her 'Date' was drawing closer. Making her way to the guest bedroom door she gave a slight knock, announced she was leaving and turned on her heel, her new black dress loosely swaying at her legs. As the door closed, Danni exited the bedroom and silently followed Scully out into the night.
