CANDY HEARTS AND
ALIENS 
by CHERYL LEE 
DISCLAIMER: This is a fan
fiction challenge about Mulder and Scully and a Valentine's day 
dance, which turns out to be real DATE and leads to other things. Fox Mulder and 
Dana Scully belong to Chris Cater, 1013 and Fox productions. This story is 
written out of love of the X-Files, and those little candy hearts from my 
childhood. 


FBI Headquarters
Basement office

8:30 a.m. 

Dana Scully was coming in the office a little later than usual this morning. She 
unlocked the door and stepped into the cold damp room. Fox Mulder, if in town he 
would have been at his desk at 7:30 a.m. Like he had done the seven years they 
had been partnered together. 

Mulder had called her late last night before leaving for up state New York 
following up on a lead given to him by the Lone Gunman. When h e called her last 
night, she was fulling expecting him to want her to come along. But he was going 
to follow-up this lead himself alone and he would then stop back in Allentown, 
Pa. and would call her. 

"Scully, the man in upper New York lived in Allentown, Pa. Several years ago. 
Something that happened several years ago to 4 other teens and must talk to him 
as soon as possible." 

"Well, OK," Scully said. 

She always worried about Mulder going off by himself and the trouble he can get 
himself in without her, because they get into enough trouble when she is with 
him. 

Scully walked over to her small desk area placed her briefcase on the floor and 
her purse on top. She stood sorting the mail ,which she had picked up off the 
floor in front of the locked door. then from the corner of her eye she saw 
laying the desk another one of those small candy hearts "Be Mine" placed neatly 
on small Valentine's Day card, the one like kids give out in grade school. Home 
and now at the office. She shook her head. 

She picked up the candy and turned the card over, nothing was on the back, like 
the one before. Just a picture of a sad puppy on the front pouting he would be 
sad if I wont be his Valentine. 

Puzzled she looked over to her partner's empty desk  Her partner was the obvious one, but he was out of town, she pulled out 
her cell phone and *69, no Mulder didn't call from here, last night. Then there 
was Agent Collins, but he would be less suttee. She sat at her desk thinking of 
all the other male agents she comes in contact with, even Skinner, name came to 
mind. 

She placed the candy and card in her desk drawer and opened the case file and 
notes in front of her. This is not getting her report written up. 

Scully turned on her computer 

X-Files #66748786001

On Friday afternoon after school 4 teenagers had been trapped in a classroom at 
Allentown Sr. High School. On Friday after school four students, not prone to 
any trouble and fabrication where workin a the yearbood and found themselves 
heald captive in the office of the yearbook advisor. 


After interviewing each child at their homes Agent Mulder and myself found that their stories had a lot of similar commonalties. Their stories where all the 
same each interviewed independently they each accounted that the room became 
very hot, stuffy ,hazy each suddenly felt light headed. 

When John Ridder, Jr. Class President attempted to open the door and it was so hot he burned his hand. 

They were all very scared, and saw no one was around, John was the only one 
hurt. When attempting to get out of the room, he burned his hand on the door 
knob. The Maintenance man stated he hear the girls screaming and when he tried 
to open the door he received the same injury the young teen did. The police and 
fire department was called in by the principle Mrs. McGreago and it took the 
fire department to open the door with a settling torch to get the children free. 
John Ridder was taken to the local hospital with 2nd and 3rd degree burns. the 
other teens were checked out by paramedics at the school and released to their 
parents. The Maintenance man was not so lucky he has transferred to the regional 
medical center with 2nd and 3rd degree burns and radiation poisoning. 

The door had been heat sealed by some unknown source, the molecular structure 
change of the door, the strange stories of the teens brought the FBI and the X-
Files into this case. 

10:35 a.m. 

Scully's thoughts here disturbed by A.D. Skinner's head popping his head in the 
door. 

"Scully, Mulder called, your cell phone was off" You're to met him in Allentown 
this afternoon" "And oh by the way don't forge t the Valentine Dance Friday" his 
head darted out just as quickly. 

Scully grabbed her cell phone "SHIT "it was off quickly she turned it on and 
slipped into her pocket. her reached for her briefcase and headed out of the 
office door locking it behind her. She hurried up the stairs and through the 
door into the garage. 

As she approached her car she felt a sense of urgency her quickly looked around 
and saw no one. As she approached the car there laying on the drivers seat was 
another small candy hear Green with "I Love You" on it with another small 
Valentine with a little elephant saying "I'M nuts for your" She Smiled and 
looked around again, who could this be.? she thought again nothing was s on the 
other side 

Mysterious my admire is she shook her head. 

She place them in a plastic evidence bag and slipped it into her case on the set 
next to her. After her returns I'll dust for prints, and laughed. 

The commuter flight her was booked on was uncomfortable and crowded. she sat 
next to a very chatty women who insisted on telling her all about every one of 
her 21 grandchildren . Finally the plane landed in strong rain storm. and thank 
goodness Mulder was waiting for her taking her away from the Grandmother of the 
year. 

Mulder took her bag and briefcase and carried them to the car. " I talked with 
this man up in New York state. He said when he was living here in Allentown, 
with his parents going to school the same thing happened . Some of his 
classmates had been tapped in one of the class rooms." He was excited
"He told me all the event, time loss, the strange feelings the teens described, 
the heat, burns everything." Mulder rambled on and on with a Mulderish grin on 
his face but Scully looked into his eyes something was very wrong. He was
 worried about something but what. 

They quickly worked their way to the rental car packed in the no loading area 
"Mulder one of these days they are going to tow your car off parking where you 
are not suppose to." Scully said getting into the front seat. Mulder slipped 
into the drivers seat and she picked up a card showing it to him. 

"Mulder this is for emergencies." She said as they drove off. Scully, stomach 
was growling and she realized her had not eating anything today except a cup of 
office and oatmeal very early this morning. 

"Mulder, before we go to the hotel, could be get something to eat." 

They stopped at the Denny's next to the hotel, the waitress took our orders and 
they talked about the case. "Tomorrow, I'll go to the newspaper office and then 
go the library. There has to be a account of the stores somewhere in the 
archives."  

Mulder pushed his food around he was antsy about something he shifted in the booth, finally we finished our meals and as Mulder paid for their meals Scully went to the restroom and wash her hands. 

 
When Scully exited the restroom, Mulder was already in the car, She half 
expected to see a candy and card in the bathroom, when she came out did not 
expect to see her partner already in the car. What was going on. 

They could have walked to the hotel it was so close, and Mulder didn't say a 
word, over to the hotel, and when I checked myself in to my room.. In the 
elevator I asked Mulder a question that he didn't seem to hear me, he was 
preoccupied with something other that small talk. 

Scully's room was down the hall from my partner's not adjoining rooms this 
time.. I unlocked the door. 

"Mulder, good night." 

Mulder waved back not looking up at me "Yeah" and disappeared into his room. 
Scully opened her door and switched on the light and there laying on the pillow 
was another candy heart Pink "Say Yes" sitting on top of a card with a little 
green alien on a space ship saying "your out of this world" She smiled at this 
and turned it over. 

Reading ... "Roses are red violets are blue come down the hall and I have more 
candy and surprise for you." 

-M 

Scully laughed out laud ending her mystery and maybe explaining why Mulder was 
do distracted tonight. She smiled and changed out of her work clothes into a 
pair of jeans and sweater 

Knocking at Mulder's door about half an hour later. He opened the door and 
smiled. Scully walked into his room and sitting on the dresser was a large bowl 
of candy hearts and scattered over the bed and chair were the rest of the little 
Valentine cards. 

"Mulder how did you, pull this off? Your were out of town, didn't go to the 
office before you left.!" 

"Well, Scully, I needed to get your attention so I could invite you to that 
dance Friday." he stammered his head down looking at the floor. 

"Mulder, sir I'd be glad to accompany you to the Dance Friday" she held out her 
hand he took it and she curtsied, and Mulder bowed. They both laughed. 

The tension left the room instantly, Scully grabbed a handful of hearts and 
walked over to the bed picking up as many of the small cards she could with one 
hand.

"Why was it so hard to ask me Mulder?" she looked up at him with a puzzled look on her face. 

"Well Scully this would be a real date, you know pick up at the door, get 
dressed up and everything." "and I was afraid that you would rather go alone 
than go with me." He stopped and stood looking at the TV and playing with the 
remote. 

"Oh, Mulder, don't be silly, sure we go out together all the time how many times 
have you been to my families home and to one of Skinner's parties together?" 


"Will it would be different, instead of the middle of the night with suitcases and plane tickets I presume flowers and candy would make a difference and I 
could instead of basic black I could wear blue or green" Scully smiled. 

"Mulder it won't be half bad" Scully smiled "Skinner thinks I'm coming by myself won't he be suppressed." 

They both laughed. Scully snatched the remote away from Mulder and turned the TV 
on to a local news program and sat down on the bed among the Valentines and 
watched. Mulder, continued with his paper work, and around 9:30 p.m. Scully went 
back to her room to get ready for bed. Taking with her the candy and the cards. 

The next morning, without a lot of digging Scully and Mulder found the news 
paper articles regarding the High School incident described by Mulder's 
informant. They talked with the police and received the information from them 
and decided they could take it all back to D.C. and work at the office. 
They fluw back to D.C. on Thursday morning. 

Scully's apartment

Friday night

8:00 p.m. 

Scully stood in her bedroom looking into her mirror, she always looked good in 
black, be tonight she stood wondering if this was just a little too much. She 
had bought this dress last year for another occasion that never happened. She 
didn't realize when buying it that underwear was going to be a problem, she 
couldn't wear any. The thin spaghetti straps and the back down to her coccyx. 
made anything she had show so a thong and thigh highs where the only thing. The 
red shoe and pearls rounded out the outfit. She could believe Dana Kate Scully 
was wearing red shoes. 

Suddenly there was a knock at the door and Scully went to answer it. There stood 
Fox Mulder in a black Tux hair combed tie straight and candy and a rose in hand. 
With the widest smile on his face. 

"These are for you Scully" he handed her the candy but he didn't give her the 
flower." 

Mulder just stood and starred,  he thought then 
she walked into the bedroom to get her purse and rap. She handed it to Mulder to 
help place it around her shoulders and headed for the door. 

Mulder guided her down the hall and into the elevator like he had done a million 
times before but this time his fingertips touched bare skin and an electric shot 
ran up his arm like lightning. He drew it a way so suddenly he hoped Scully 
would not notice.  

Scully noticed, of yes she did but hoped Mulder had not noticed she had missed a 
step and almost fell. She drew the rap around her tighter to cover the goose 
flesh. and her flushed skin, She had felt this way before sometimes then Mulder 
touched the back of her hand or brushed the hair from her eyes but never to this 
intensity. 


The ride to the Dance is uneventful, some small talk about, weather, the cases progress and how nice they both looked. God, is was like back in high school 
again, going to the Sr. Prom. 

They walked into the banquet room and a nice band was playing a current pop rock tune, neither could place. Mulder was stopped by several agents before they 
found a table kind of half way back from the dance floor. Scully ordered club 
soda, and Mulder ordered the same with lemon.. They had just got settled when 
they noticed Skinner advancing toward them with a pretty blond in tow. At first 
he had a frond and then smiled comming up and introducing them to Barbie.
Both Mulder and Scully looked at each other on that one. 

Skinner danced with Scully and Mulder asked Barbie to dance it was a slow number 
and Mulder was subjected to hearing about Barbie and her hair, Barbie and her 
dress, etc, etc, where does he get these women! Finally the tune was over and 
Mulder deposited Barbie back into Skinner's arms and took Scully back into his 
arms as the next number started. 

"Scully , there did he meet her did he tell you" he whispered in her ear as he 
drew her closer into his arms. 

They moved around the floor, like they did as partners in the field each step in 
sink each anticipating each others moves. They returned to their table in the 
back and sat next to each other watching the couples on the floor. 

"Scully, the girl in the green dress, she is not happy with her date tonight." 

"How do you know that?" 

"See how far his is holding her, each time is tries she pulls away." 

"Now perceptive of you, Mulder, they are getting a divorce according to the 
water cooler set." 

"Skinner, is going to get lucky tonight" 

"Mulder," she punched him in the shoulder "Now how do you know that" 

"Because Barbie told me so." They both laughed 

Another slow dance started and Mulder placed his hand out and pulled Scully to 
her feet. But he didn't head for the dance floor but back to the side he pulled 
she toward him placing his arms around her waist and she slide her arms around 
his waist under this tux jacket he placed he head down on her neck and they 
danced together hardly moving their bodies very close together. 

Mulder raised his face and kissed her neck, and then waited for the storm to
 hit. Nothing happened. he kissed her ear, and slid his hand down under the top 
of her dress feeling her bear skin. Scully, responded by pulling him closer into 
her arms pressing her stomach into his groin area. They had danced behind a 
group of potted plants hiding them from the view of the rest of the party. Not 
missing a step Mulder kissed her lightly on the mouth as the palm of his hand 
spread over the curve of her perfect ass. 

Again is waited for the storm to hit. Scully, looked up into his eyes and smiled 

"Scully what do you have under that dress." Mulder whispered and kissed her again.  

"Come home and find out." 

Just then the music was ending and Mulder leaned Scully back into a dip. Pulled 
her up into a complete kiss. They emerged from behind the plants, and walked 
over to the table. Mulder helped placed the rap over Scully's shoulders and 
picked up her purse for her. He guided her through the tables and chairs toward 
the door. From the corner of his eye he saw Skinner coming up to them.  

Scully, could think faster that Mulder at the moment, "Walter, we have to go, 
but if you leave early and don't drink too much, believe me you will not regret 
it." 

They both had hard time keeping straight faces until they got out side the 
building and then burst into laughter. They laughed all the way to the car
and didn't stop until both there seated and buckled in.. 

"Mulder I sure hope you read Barbie correctly if not Skinner is going to be 
very, very mad at me tomorrow." 

"If we both plays his cards right you have nothing to worry about. Am I reading 
you correctly Scully," he reached over and squeezed her hand. 

"Mulder your place or mine" she smiled and winked. 

"I believe this calls for something different, special" he started the car and 
headed up town. 

As they walked into the lobby of the Hilton Crystal Plaza she was so grateful 
that Mulder always had an overnight case in he trunk for emergencies and this 
was an emergency, checking into an fancy hotel without luggage would be 
unspeakable for a good catholic girl like Dana Katherine Scully. 

Mulder sighed the resister and the bell hop took his small over night bag and 
they headed of the elevator. As they entered Mulder took hold of her hand and 
watch the doors close. They rose to the 14th floor the bell hop escorted them to 
their room and Mulder handed him a tip at the door., Took the bag from him. He 
thanked him again and closed the door. 

Mulder dropped the bag and took two steps to Scully and picked her up into his 
arms and kissed her passionately on the mouth. She responded by running her 
fingers through his hair and pushing her toung into his mouth. 

Scully, was in the bathroom when room service came in with what ever Mulder had 
ordered at the desk during check in. Then she came back into the room there was 
Champaign, chocolate, strawberries and roses. Mulder had given her a single 
perfect rose and now he had ordered a dozen and taken several and spread rose petals over the bed and floor around the bed. 

"Fox, there did all this come from," she stopped hoping the use of his first 
name wouldn't piss him off. He smiled and kissed her again. that is pushing it 
but if I can call you Dana, Fox will be OK" 

The music was playing and they danced again if standing in the same spot holding 
on to each other and kissing each other is your definition of dancing. Mulder 
had removed his tux jacket before room service had arrived and now it was 
Scully's turn. The music had stopped and his hands where placed over her hips 
gathering the cloth of her dress up over her hips up to her waist. Slowly she 
lifted her arms and he pulled the dress over her head. Standing their before him 
in nothing but red shoes, stockings and a thong. 

She was so lovely, he reach out and placed his finger tips along her skin, like 
someone touching a fine piece of china. She took one step closer. and his other 
hand brushed along her cheek and then laced his fingers through her hair, 
tilting her face upward and bent over and kissed her. not moving his right hand 
his left hand explored her skin. 

Later, naked laying in the bed Mulder covered his partner with small light 
kisses she called him, fox, mulder william, and several other pet names she had just made up. 

His patience, and control was losing the battle he had tried to make this 
perfect for Scully tonight but he couldn't hold on much longer. Scully sensing 
his problem opened herself up to him and inviting him inside. He laid over her 
holding his weight up on his elbows and positioned himself between her legs. The 
head of his penis eased between the folds of her private place that this 
beautiful women, was about to share with him. Fox Mulder, the luckiest man in 
the world. 

THE END 

P.S.. Monday morning A.D. Skinner, had no reason to call Agent Dana Scully on 
the carpet.
