Things get a little out of hand on the sofa in front of the television. ---------- Babysitting Nicole coggan and her multiple personalities ( aka sulky) ------ 12 Bear view av. Friday. 9:00 pm -- Dana Scully pulled up at her cousin Emilys house , she was the lucky soul who got to babysit Damien and Ruth , Emilys twins. < dooms day has come> she thought to herself as she got out of her car. The door burst open and two dark headed whirlwinds rushed out of the house to greet her ."aunt Dana!!!" they both screamed as they engulfed her in hugs and kisses. "What did you get for us huh? what'cha get??" Finally Emily emerged from the house and pried the kids off Dana and greeted her." Hi Dana , thanks for doing this for me , its good to be able to dump them onto someone else for a whole." Emily grinned. Suddenly Scully realised that Mulder had planned to come to her place so they could finish some reports on their last case, now she'd have to cancel. "Hi Em, she said as she hugged her back, "Excuse me a sec. I have to call my partner." "you're married???!!!" Emily said looking enthusiastic. Dana blushed , " no ! Hes my work partner, A good friend , nothing more. We were going to finish off some work at my place but now I'm gonna have to cancel it. "She explained. " Oh well , why don't you call him over here and you can do the work and he can help you babysit the kids!" Emily said gleefully. "You really think so? , He is kind of weird." " Of course , wouldn't want wreck your party would I?" She said sweetly . " Fine Ill call him , but don't blame me when your kids get spooked." Scully warned as she dialled Mulders number. "So,.. " Emily started after Scully told Mulder where to go , "This partner of yours , what's he like?" Scully gave Emily a ' don't push it look and sighed. "his name is Fox Mulder and hes my partner, * nothing more!" " Do you like him ?" Emily asked wriggling her fingers in the air. " Of course Emily , hes my best friend!" " No, no I didn't mean that, I meant do you see him as more than a friend?" "NO!" Scully said quickly and hoped Emily would not see her turning red. Emily raised an index finger in the air." Ah, nimble is the one who has everything to deny." Scully blushed again, " Emily , are you saying that I see Mulder as something more of a friend , Eg . Some thing along the lines of lover?" Emily sighed , if love was blind these two definitely were. "Dana , Dana ,Dana, Its virtually impossible for you to deny, isn't it? its in your eyes all the time , face it. your head over heels in love with him and there's nothing you can do about it." Scully was about to reply when a taxi pulled up and Mulder stepped out." " hi Scully , Hi..." He waved his hand aimlessly in the air, "Emily." Emily said as she held out her hand to him. Mulder took the offered hand and shook it . " Hi Emily". he said .Emily leaned over to Dana and whispered , " I take it this is the love of your life Fox Mulder?" she gave a satisfied grin as Scully squirmed restlessly under Mulders questioning gaze. Then she turned back to Mulder, "Dana here just cant stop talking about you..."Emilys tirade stopped as she was elbowed in the side by Scully. Wait here Mulder ill get the kids Scully said and retreated inside to get them. Soon after Scully emerged with two four year olds attached to her hand and pant leg ." Nice decorations . " He joked as Scully gave him a deadly glare. "Who's dat ant dada?" Asked Ruth , pointing to the strange man that stood in front of them." That's mr. Mulder. Say hello ruth. "Hedow mistah." She said and gave a toothy grin. " hi Ruth , its nice to meet you ". said Mulder ., then he looked to Damien," You must be Damien, am I right ?" he said " Yeth, I m Damyen" Damien said. " ok guys mommy has to go now, you be good while I m gone, an don't get into trouble!" Emily said. Then she looked over to Scully and said," Don't you get into trouble either" and drove off. As Scully and Mulder went through the door after the kids Mulder leaned into Scully and said" love of your life?" Scully turned and gave him 'the look' and went inside. When Ruth and Damien came in they immediately put 'Babe on and sat there watching it contentedly. " Ant Dada bere hungy!" Ruth and Damien said when they saw her come in. " What do you want?" Scully asked them ." Mummy weft some food in de fwige fo you to heat up but you have to make salad." Ruth said. Scully turned and went to the kitchen to find Mulder holding a glass of nothing and a carton of milk the contents of which were slowly spreading on the floor. " Cant I leave you alone for five seconds without a disaster happening can I?" Scully asked . " No mum." Mulder replied looking sheepish. " Well I hope you're not gonna just leave that mess on the floor because if you do, you'll no dinner." Mulder gave her a cute puppy look and said" okay" and proceeded to clean up the mess. While he did that Scully looked in the fridge and found the plates of spaghetti ready to be heated. She shoved them in the microwave And told Mulder to make salad. " Finished mom " he said and grinned. "good boy, Scully said and kissed his cheek. < Jeez what'd you do that for?> Th angel in her head said < She's got the hots for him , that's why,>the devil replied. < For once I'm gonna have to agree with you Luce, she s head over heels in love with him.>the angel laughed. *oh shut up!* Dana told her thoughts. < yes mam> they replied. Scully and Mulder carried out the food on trays to the small coffee table in front of the TV with Ruth and Damien squashed on either side of them. " Look mistah!" Damien shouted as he turned his head to reveal two strands of spaghetti hanging from his nose. Mulder laughed silently as Scully told Damien about manners and how to treat guests. " What so funny?" she asked when shed finished. " nothing mom." Mulder replied and gave her the puppy look again. " Finished!!" Ruth and Damien cried and looked to Scully who told them to clean their teeth and get ready for bed and she would come and tuck them in when they were ready. As Scully was putting the kids to bed Mulder rinsed the dishes and shoved them into the dishwasher and waited for Scully to return from upstairs. " Do you actually wike dat guy?" Ruth asked her asked she was tucked in. Scully smiled " yes , hes my friend Ruth okay?" " okay antie , do you wuv him?" " I don't know." Scully said and walked out the door back to Mulder who was watching some sappy romance on the TV. Mulder saw the sad look on Scullys face as she sat down beside him. " What's wrong Scull?" he asked. " Nothing I'm fine." she said . " no your not , I can tell when you're lying ,you're a bloody awful liar." " Thanks ". she said. " Come on Scully tell me" " fine . " " well?" " I feel as if my time is running out to be happy and have a family and to grow old with someone , not to grow old by myself with non one to hold and care for every day and night. , its silly I know but I want to have all that before its too late." She looked at her hands. " Really? I didn't know you felt that way." Mulder said and put his arm comfortingly around her shoulders and was happy when she didn't pull back. " but in the meantime, you've still got me." he said and hugged her lightly. "yeah." Scully said and smiled. She was about to say something else but trailed off as Mulder slowly leaned down to her , holding her gaze. He watched the emotions cross her face, love, trust, confusion, temptation, doubt...... Mulder pinned her up against the couch and straddled her legs quickly closing the remaining space between them. Finally their lips met in a sweet rushing moment and they pulled[art. Scully smiled at him and pressed her lips to his again and ran her tongue over his lips just enjoying the sensation. That was just the first kiss, their lips met again with a surge of passion and love and trust , long and liquid , sweet and smooth. Mulder savoured the taste of her in his mouth , and could smell her sweet perfume, a soft floral scent that was hers and hers alone. She tilted her head so the force of the kiss would deepen, letting out soft moan and sliding under neath him just a little more. She loved the feel of his hands as they traced aimless patterns through her shirt and noticed how soft his hair was. He tasted of sunflower seeds spaghetti and himself, an interesting combination. She thought as she deepened the kiss. < Oh my god , what am I doing? > Mulder asked himself . replied the voice he called conscience., < and??> he asked ,< you ve loved her forever and you cant believe this is happening?> < oh right.> he replied. " Nooooooooo!" cried a little voice. Scully and Mulder were pulled apart by a pair of insistent little hands. " NOO stop! stop! don't eat my antie, Don't ! pwease don't! well be good we pwomise!" yelled Damien as he and his sister tugged them apart. Scully and Mulder went red as Ruth asked them what they were doing. Damien pointed at them," you were eating our antie!!!" he and started to cry. " But you said you were his friend, so why are you bien meen to im?" asked Ruth. Scully picked Damien up and tried to stop him crying. "Aunt Dana changed her mind ok? , and she's decided that she does love mr Mulder now , in fact, she thinks she loves him more than life." Scully explained. Damien looked up and stopped crying." you wuv im?" he asked . Scully nodded." You weawwy wuv im?" She nodded again. " "You weawy weawy weawy wuv im?" he asked. " Of course I do." Scully said. " Den woi were you eatin im? " he said with a pout. Scully laughed. " No Damien, I wasn't eating uncle Fox , I was kissing him ," "eeeeeew , what's that?" Damien asked. " Its something people do to show how much they really love each other, ok ?" Scully asked. " Does dat mean yor gonna be kissin agen?" Said Damien. " I don't think you should know that ," Scully replied, " any way, what ware you doing out of bed huh? its late all little children should be asleep by now." " Ye s Antie Dana." they both said and went back to their room. Fox grinned, " Do you wuve me?" he asked in a baby voice. " yes" Dana replied ," Do you weawwy wuv me?" Fox asked again ." Of course Scully said and kissed him again. Her hand s in his hair holding his head down and his hands slowly massaging her back. Finally they broke apart , gasping for air. " I love you too Scully." Said Fox . They both smiled at each other and at their new found love. Scullys eyes began to droop and she reluctantly fell asleep on Mulders chest. But she was happy , a sleepy smile framed her face as she dreamed of their love, and the fact that their love probably wouldn't die , even when they were dead. Finally happy that she had found some one to love who would love her back , it was certainly better than loving a pillow. Sensing Scully had fallen asleep, Mulder picked her up gently and took her to her room. He changed her into her favourite blue silk pyjamas and layed her in the bed . " Night beautiful." He said and kissed her on the lips. He then realised that he didn't have anywhere to sleep so he took off his clothes except for his boxer shorts and got in next to his sleeping partner, she wouldn't mind, especially since she loved him.
