Notes: this part goes in between babysitting 2 and bugs 1 there is no need to read bstg2 but you might like to (hint hint). Sorry to disappoint those who want Damien and Ruth in this, but they're on holiday and couldn't make it : ) read on. Response: willing to beg and plead. (gimme gimme gimme!)
Dana snapped on the clasp of her bra and straightened it out. This afternoon she had a date. Not just a date, but a date with Mulder her partner, friend and lover. She smiled to herself as she thought back to how it took two annoying four-year-olds just to get them together. A knock came at the door. Sighing, Scully slipped on her t shirt and went to answer it, checking her watch on the way. Nope, too early to be Mulder, so who was it? Scully looked through the peephole in her door to see a pimply faced kid with a bunch of flowers in his hands. Oookay then. Scully opened the door. "Yes?" The boy swallowed. "uh miss Scully?" Scully nodded "Yes, that's me." "Um, these are for you." Her eyebrow shot up to her hairline. "For me. From who?" "Uhm, I don't know miss, a man paid me five bucks to give them to you, uh, there's a note." Mulder. Scully thought. She took the flowers from the boy and also the note. "Thanks," she said, and closed the door. Once inside, Scully put the flowers in a vase filled with water and read the note. Hey Scully Wear your swimmers. Hope you liked the flowers. Mulder Scully chuckled and went into her room to change again. Five minutes later, a key turned in her lock and footsteps made their way towards her room. "Boo!"Mulder said as he came up behind her. She laughed and turned away from the mirror to face him. "Hi to you too Mulder, where are we going?" she asked. "To the beach of course why else would I get you up so early in the morning to be ready by six?" Scully smirked. "I can think of a lot of other reasons Mulder, what about last Wednesday when I was woken up by a suspicious pair of hands roaming around suspicious pl..." She was interrupted by Mulder. "Yeah, yeah, I know, come on, I want to get there by lunch." Scully rolled her eyes. "I'm coming."
Beach outside the Mulder summer home When Mulder pulled up at the summer house Scully looked to him in question. "Why here?" she asked. "It's a nice place Scully, I thought you'd like it," he answered with a mock pout. "Yeah, I like it but what about..?" she trailed off as Mulder nodded. "It's okay Scully we came here to have fun, not to be sad. Come on, help me with our picnic stuff." Scully hoisted a blanket into her arms and also some towels and followed Mulder down to the beach. They set up a picnic table and spread the blanket out onto the coarse sand. Scully stood up and turned to Mulder. "Last one in the water has to do paperwork for a week!" she said and ran off towards the water. Scully's words registered in Mulder's head and he got up and ran after her. Too bad he was the last one in. Scully was splashing around with a snorkel trying to see fish, so she didn't hear Mulder coming up behind her until she felt something brush against her leg. She jumped up and shrieked. Mulder chuckled as she spat out sea water from her mouth. "Mulder, that was MEAN!" she said and splashed a wave of water at him. Laughing now, Mulder splashed water back at her and she shrieked again. "Hey Scully, was that a *girly scream*?" he asked and splashed her again. Scully was laughing now too as they started a full blown water fight with each other. "A girlie scream? me? sounds more like something you'd do Mouldy!" Mulder frowned and splashed over to her in the calm sea water. He reached out and caught her by the waist and she wriggled around in his grasp, his other hand tickled her ribs and she giggled and squirmed even more. "stop it!" she cried between giggles. "Only if you say you girlie-screamed, Scully." "Fine, Fine, okay, it was a girlie scream! now stop!" true to his word, Mulder stopped.... then he kissed her, nudging his way into her warm mouth with his tongue as she responded enthusiastically. Soon she was rocking her hips against his as the water rolled around them. Then, their swimmers were floating around in the water as they cried out their pleasure to the skies.
Later, they sat at the table munching on bread and fruit and drinking wine in comfortable silence. "Have you ever thought about the future Mulder?" an uneasy tremor in her voice. Mulder smiled to himself and to her and took her hand in his and gave it a gentle squeeze. "Yes. I have thought abut our future Scully, we'll make it through, don't you worry." Scully smiled at that and kissed his cheek. Mulder turned to the basket next to him and rummaged around through it. "aha!" he proclaimed when he found it, producing a square shaped gift wrapped in pretty paper. Scully raised an eyebrow in question when he held it out to her. "For the future." Was his enigmatic explanation. He nudged her hands with the gift and she took it, studying the shape in her hands. "Can I shake it?" she asked. Mulder shook his head no. Scully weighed it in her hand. It was very light in her hands. "Open it." Mulder urged. Scully studied the gift, trying to guess what it contained while Mulder contained the urge to unwrap it himself f she took much longer. Finally Scully unwrapped the paper covering the gift to find a....cardboard box. Her eyes questioned Mulder and he urged her on. Scully opened the top of the box to find it filled with shredded newspaper. She dug through the paper with her hand until it came into contact with a hard, cold, object. She wrapped her fingers around it and removed it from the paper. It was a beautiful, silver box, decorated with little silver swirls and flowers, it look very exotic. With delighted eyes she turned to Mulder and kissed him. "thank you Mulder, it lovely, I love it!" Mulder grinned, "careful Scully, I'might get jealous," then he gestured to the silver box. "Open it Scully, there's more." Scully tugged at the lid and it came off with a snick to reveal.... the most hideous ring she had ever seen. It had a huge, oval shaped zirconium in the middle surrounded by little chunks of bloodstone, the colours clashed with each other like yellow and orange, Scully cringed. She looked up to Mulder. "is it a gag gift Mulder?" she asked, her voice full of hope. Mulder smiled. "You like it?" Scully stuck her tongue out at him and then glanced at the 'ring' once more. "Why did you give me this Mulder?" she asked again. "Because I want you to marry me Scully, I want you to be my wife." Scully said nothing. She just sat there, speechless. Mulder waved a hand in front of her eyes. "Yoo hoo? Scully? Are you there? come on Scully wakey wakey!" Scully finally snapped out of it and came looked into his eyes. "Are you serious?" She didn't believe it. Mulder didn't ask her to marry him did he? no. He couldn't have. He took her hand in his again. "Yes, I'm serious. Will you marry me Scully? Dana?" Scully took his head in his hands and kissed him hard and hotly, Mulder too stunned to move. "I 'll take that as a yes?" Mulder asked once their kiss was finished. "Yes, it is a yes. I will marry you Mulder, without hesitation, but there is absolutely *no* way I am going to wear your ring, sorry Mulder, but it's hideous!" Mulder chuckled. "That's why I bought it for you Scully, I knew you'd hate it, 'cos tomorrow I'm gonna take it back to the store and we're going to find you the perfect ring for your finger because the best is what you deserve." Scully kissed his lips and laughed. "Your sense of logic is so weird Mulder." she told him and he laughed with her. "I know Scully, but that's one of the reasons you love me so much, right?" hey both smiled. "Right." And they kissed. THE END
