“What’s in the bag Mulder?”  Scully asked as she refilled her coffee cup.

“Oh just a little something for you.” he replied handing the bag to her.

“Peeps!”  Scully squealed with delight.  “Mulder I LOVE these things.”

“I know, I remembered from last year.”

“Uh, Mulder, this package is opened.”

“Don’t worry Scully, they were sealed when I bought them,.  I just opened them up last week
in order for them to be perfectly stale for you.”

“You know Mulder, they really are better when they’re hard – chewy – they just seem to
taste better that way.”  She ripped a peep from it’s package – her eyes glistened as she bit
it’s head off with savage glee. Sated, she rummaged through the bag again.   “Marshmallow
Bunnies, too! Mulder – you even got the PINK ones.”

“Allow me Scully”  Mulder removed a bunny from the package and placed it in the
microwave.  A few seconds later the bell chimed and he opened the door with a flourish.

Scully gingerly retrieved the hot, swollen confection from the microwave.   The tip of her
tongue flicked out to test the bunny’s temperature, and deeming it not too hot, she proceeded
to lick every drop of marshallow cream from it’s gooey center.  She polished off the crusty
pink sugar coating, and then as a grand finale, licked every remaining particle of cream and
sugar from each of her fingers.

Scully gazed at him, eyes sparkling.  “Mulder that was a wonderful surprise.  Thank you.”

“Oh no, Scully, thank you.”
