Cranberries
Written by: Erin M. Blair
------------------------------------

Scully was walking through a vale to 
find Mulder. She found him in the library, 
waiting for her by a kiosk. She saw him 
looking through a book of recipes for 
cranberry sauce.  "Mulder, why do you
want to make cranberry sauce?"

"Oh! I lost my grandmother's recipe,
so I decided to get a book and get a 
new recipe," said Mulder as he looked
at his winsome partner. They were finally
having a fling ever since that kiss on New
Year's Eve. 

"Why, Mulder, I thought you didn't know what the 
inside of a library looks like," she said 
teasingly.  "I thought you only like to look 
at Adult Video News."

Mulder pretended to be offended. "Aw,
Scully, I'm hurt. There's more to me than
reading a magazine on pornos."

"Mulder, I could've sent you my 
mother's recipe," said Scully. "It wouldn't
have been any trouble."

They walked out of the library. The building
was surrounded by a beautiful hillside and a 
pond. There were picnic tables surrounding the
pond, and Mulder and Scully sat down on one of them.
After a few minutes of sitting, they heard quacky
sounds from the ducks in the pond.

Scully felt blissful, so enamored of being with
Mulder. She simpered as he slipped his arms
around her waist. "Do you know how much I 
love you?"

"I do know," said Mulder. He felt their  warm
lips touching as he kissed her. "I want you
so much, Scully." He preyed on her blue
eyes, her gaze full of love for him. 

"I want you, too."

Author's Notes:

This story comes from a prompt in 
the "Pocket Muse" by Monica Wood. The
prompt was: "Write a story using these words:
vale, kiosk, cranberry, winsome, fling, quacky,
simpered, and preyed.

I know this story is very weird. :)
