She glanced over at the sleeping man next to her, so peaceful. She knew that he would not wake for quit some time now, she had kicked him accidentally twice already, and he hadn't even flinched a muscle. She felt nothing but the heaviness of his arm wrapped across her chest and his leg draped over her thigh. She removed herself from his embrace and slipped on some cloths and stood up from the bed. She suddenly noticed that the room had become stuffy. She opened the window, to let in some fresh air, as she did that she took a look around at the streets, the lights. Looking over at the building across the street she noticed that there was only one light on. She found herself drawn to the light, like a moth to a flame. She stared a little longer, and then she noticed someone was looking back at her. When she took a closer look she found it was a man. He waved at her, she didn't move, but didn't look away either. Then he left the window for a second, when he came back he was holding a piece of cardboard that read: Meet me in the lobby, in big black letters. He pointed to the building she was in. she glanced over at Mulder who was still sound asleep. She didn't know why but soon she found herself down in the lobby. She was about to leave when she felt a hand fall on her shoulder. " Hey Beautiful" said a male voice. She looked up to see the man from across the street staring at her. Any other man she would have punched right then and there, but there was something about him. He was tall, not as tall as Mulder, but still towering over her. He wore blue jeans with a black shirt and had brown spiky hair with stunning brown eyes. " Wow, your even more beautiful close up" he said and smiled innocently. " Who are you?" she asked, barely able to get the words out. " I'm sorry, I'm Kevin" he said and smiled that brilliant smile. " And you would be?" he asked politely. "Sc...Dana" she said. "Nice to meet you Sc...Dana" he said and laughed. She nodded. " So what do you do for a living, if you don't mind me asking" he said. " Government" she said. " Ah...how fun" he replied. " Why what do you do?' she asked. " I'm a D.J., for the Blue room. Have you ever been there?" he asked. " No I don't think I have." " Well I'll just have to take you sometime then" he said and winked at her. She laughed. He stared at her silently. " What?" she asked, when she noticed. " You have the cutest laugh," he said. She Blushed. " I bet you get told this all the time but you have beautiful, piercing blue eyes" he said. She blushed again and looked down at the floor. " I'm sorry I don't mean to come on so strongly it's just your stunning" he said. " That's nice of you" she said. " So are you seeing anyone at the current moment" he said. She didn't answer. " I mean it's oblivious you don't live here, so you must be with someone" he said. " I am" she said shyly. She looked at the lobby clock. " I think I better get going now, it was nice meeting you" she said and got up. " Wait" he said, grabbing her arm " Can I call you sometime?" he asked. She didn't answer. He grabbed a card out of his pocket and wrote something on the back and handed it to her. " Call me anytime" he said. She nodded and practically ran up the stairs. She opened Mulder's door and sat down on the couch. She glanced at Kevin's number. She went into Mulder's bedroom and got her purse and put the number in her wallet. She sighed and walked back to the couch and sat back down. She then felt two hands go on her shoulder and panicked for a second, but then realized it was just Mulder. " Good morning" he said and placed a kiss on her cheek. 'Morning?' She thought. 'How long was I in the lobby' Mulder walked around the couch and faced her. " Did you sleep okay?" he asked concerned. " Fine... why... why do you ask?" she asked nervously. " No reason, you just look a little tired" he said and smiled. " I'm fine Mulder" she said assuring him. " Good, we have to hurry if were going to make it over to The Lone Gunman's, they want us to go over there today and go over some conspiracy theory they have about the cattle industry, before steak and shake opens" he said. " As much fun as that sounds Mulder I don't think I'm going to go" she said. " Are you sure, I mean this may indicate a free dinner at steak and shake" she said and wiggled his eyebrows. " I think I'll stay away from steak and shake today" she said and yawned. " Okay, I should be home around 9" he said. " And then we'll make our own steak shake" he said and laughed. She rolled her eyes. Then he left out he door. She yawned and decided to watch some T.V., since Mulder's collection of movies wasn't that great. She started flipping through channels, and finally settled on MTV. She fell asleep soon after, when she woke up she looked around and realized that it was nearly 2:00. she got up and turned off the T.V. and grabbed her stuff and walked out the door. She was walking down the sidewalk on her way to see Agent Doggett to give him the case reports and she wasn't really paying attention to where she was walking. She looked up just in time to run straight smack into a guy who spilt his coffee all over her white blouse. " Oww" she said holding her head. " I'm sorry, I didn't see you lady" he said. She looked up to see the face of the man who she ran into. And her jaw dropped in surprise. " We have to stop meeting like this" he said and laughed. He offered her his hand to help her up and she took it. " I'm sorry about the coffee, where are you going I can give you a ride" he said. She knew it wasn't wise to go in cars with men she barely knew, but somehow she just didn't seem to care and besides it was better then walking down the streets of D.C. soaked in coffee. So she got in the car with the man she barely knew. He drove for a while then she realized that they weren't heading in the direction of Doggetts Place. " Hey, Where are you taking me?" she asked. " My Place" he said. " What?" She said starting to panic. " Calm down, I figured you could borrow one of my shirts so you don't have to walk around with a big coffee stain on you all day" he said calmly. She sighed. He drove to a run down apartment building. " Nice place" she said more sarcastically then she ment to. " Yeah, It's fit for a king" he said and laughed. " Well it looks like the king just fired his decorator" she said and gave him a weak smile. They walked in to his apartment and he got her and Black T-shirt for her to wear. " This should fit you, it's too small to fit me" he said. He threw it to her. " If you want... you can take a shower too, it looks like you have a piece of pepperoni in your hair" he said and laughed. " Thanks" she said " but I think I better get going" " Okay see you around" he said. So Scully was right back at Mulder's so she decided this time she would take her car. She knocked on Doggetts door and heard " Just a Minute" and then the door flew open. " Woa... what happened to you Agent Scully" he asked. She didn't answer him she just brushed by him. She noticed he was watching Nascar. " I got the MJ files done yesterday, so I came by to drop them off" she said and set the files on his coffee table. "Are you all right, Agent Scully?" Doggett asked " I'm Fine why?" she asked. " Well considering you look like you got about 2 hours of sleep, your wearing a guys shirt and you have a piece of pepperoni in your hair " he said pulled the pepperoni out. " I'm fine, I... I have to leave" she said and walked out the door. As she was walking to her car her cell phone rang. She considered not answering it because she knew it was probably Mulder, but she did. " Scully" she said in a tired voice. " Agent Scully, This is Skinner, I got a call a couple minutes ago from Agent Doggett" he said. ' oh great' she thought. " He told me that you didn't look to good, and he suggested to me that you might even be on crack" he yelled to her. " Sir.." " What you do outside of work is none of my business, but I can't have one of my best agents on drugs, is that understood?" he asked. " Sir.." " Scully I never would think that you would do drugs, but the Scully Agent Doggett described to me made me think other wise... so I'm requesting you take a 3 week probation Vacation with pay starting immediately" he said in a lower voice. " But Sir..." she said trying to object. " I have already informed Agent Mulder of this, he objected as well but I think it's what's best at the moment" he said " and Scully if you are on drugs I suggest you get help A.S.A.P." he said and hung up. 'great' she thought ' now people think I'm a druggie' ' Mrs. Spooky Crack head' she thought to herself. She giggled at the thought. When she got in her car she looked at the clock, it was 8:00. she realized that she hadn't eaten all day. So she drove to a diner and then to her apartment. When she got to her apartment she looked at her answering machine and was surprised to see 8 messages, unlike the usual 5 she had. She checked them " Scully it's me, um.. I just wanted to remind you to meet at 9 tonight that's all bye" She skipped to the next one. " Agent Scully This is assistant Director Walter Skinner, I'm just calling to... oh never mind I'll call your cell" she deleted it and went on. " Dana it's mom, just wanted to remind you that Bill is coming up this weekend, call me back" "Hi Dana" came the next message." This is Kevin, I just want to know if you would like to go to the blue room with me sometime... call me back, you know the number" She layed her head down, and soon found herself drifting off to sleep. When she woke up it was late, she looked at the clock and realized it was 9:26. " Oh Shit!" she said allowed and grabbed her bag and ran out the door. On the way over excuses to why she was late kept running through her head. She knocked on Mulder's door. After a while the door flung open. " It's about damn time, Where the hell have you been?" he asked. She ignored his question and brushed past him. " Dana?" he said. " I'm sorry I fell asleep" She said. " Did you?" he asked looking her up and down. " Yes" she said eyeing him. " Nice shirt" he said and walked to the bedroom and slammed the door. ' oh shit' she said as she realized she was still wearing Kevin's shirt.' this is going to be bad' she walked to his bedroom door. "Mulder it's not what you think I..." " It's not what I think? Then is it a coincident that you were a half hour late and your wearing another man's shirt" he yelled. " Mulder he spilt coffee on me..." she tried to reason. " Yeah I bet that's not all he 'spilt' on you" he said. " Mulder... I promise that..." " Your promises mean nothing... just leave" he said. She turned around and walked out to her car. When she got to her car the tears poured out she started punching her car, kicking the tires, and then she callasped and starting crying uncontrollable on her car. " Hey, what's wrong?' came a familiar voice. It was him. She looked up at him. " IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!" she screamed at him. " What? What's all my fault?" Kevin Asked confused. " He hates me!" she sobbed. " Hey..." Kevin said as he embraced her. she didn't move. " He dosen't hate you" Kevin said. Just then the door to Mulders building flew open. " I KNEW IT!" He yelled. Mulder ran over to Kevin and started punching him. " Mulder, Stop!" she yelled. " You son of a bitch..." he said as Kevin tried to defend himself. Scully pulled Mulder off Kevin. " Mulder it's not what you think" she said " Yes it is, god how could you do this to me you whore!" he said. She slapped him hard and he shut up. " Just Listen" she half sobbed. " He's nothing to me Mulder, I love only you!" she said. " yeah right" he said " You're my constant... my touchstone...without you...there is no me" she said. " Then why were you a half hour late and wearing his shirt!" he yelled. " I ran into him on the street, he spilt coffee on me and then he said he was going to drive me to Doggett's but he drove me to his place and I changed into one of his shirts... then I went home and fell asleep...nothing happened!" she said. " She's right, nothing did happen" said Kevin. " You shut up" he said. Kevin backed off. " Scully I trust you so tell me the truth..." he said. " I just did" she said " Mulder I would never purposely lie to you" she said. " I'm sorry.. I made such a mess of things I should have trusted you more" he said. " It's okay Mulder, you were right to suspect something... but I love noone but you...I love you" she said. He kissed her Deeply and when they broke Scully said " come on I'll make you some tea" " Hold that thought" he said. Mulder walked over to Kevin. " Sorry about punching you" he said. " It's Cool" he said " You're a very lucky man" " I know" he replied, as him and Scully walked hand in hand inside. "Hey Mulder, I have 3 weeks probation vacation.. any idea's on what I should do?" she asked " I can think of a few..like the Steak shake you still owe me" he said and wiggled his eyebrows. And they both laughed. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* The End. Well what do you think? Well I wanted it to end that Mulder was still pissed and Scully went with Kevin, but I knew that would upset some people so this ways better right? lol
