COME TO THE FIELD
Written by: Erin M. Blair
--------------------------------------
I just received this e-mail from Mulder:
* TO: DANA SCULLY
* FROM: FOX MULDER
* DATE: April 25, 1999
* SUBJECT: Come to the field...
*
* Scully,
* Come to the field. Call me on my cell phone.
* I'll give you the directions.
* Fox Mantle
"Fox Mantle," I repeated. "What's he up to?"
The field? Fox Mantle? I knew that he had baseball
on his brain ever since he saw that picture of Josh
Exeley with the Bounty Hunter and Arthur Dales.
For the past couple of weeks, we haven't had any
X-Files coming our way. It's been slow.
I dialed his cell phone, and I heard his low voice.
"Mulder."
"Mulder, it's me."
"Scully. The field's near our bench at the park."
I smiled to myself. "Westview Park. I remember now."
"I loved how you showed me your secret spot."
I nodded. "Yes, I do." I can't believe he still
remembered that. I showed that spot after he told
me that we were shut down that first time. "I told
you that's where we'd go if something happened."
"It's been awhile since we'd been there."
"I know."
"Come on, let's go."
"All right. I'll see you there within an hour."
"Great!"
We said our goodbyes, and I couldn't help wonder
what he's up to. I'll find out soon enough.
End of Story
Feedback: Only critical, positive feedback
please. If you flame me, I'll laugh at your
expense. Send to: eblair@sonic.net
Author's Notes: I thought that it would be
interesting to show that Scully had a private
place that she shared with Mulder. I was
very curious of what her reaction would be
when she saw Mulder's message. I hope that
you'd like this story.
