Blair -------------------------------------- Dear Diary, I keep having this dream over and over again. It's been a pattern after Missy took me to see an astrology exhibit at the University of Maryland. Missy believes in that kind of stuff along with her New Age philosophy, but I don't. I like looking at the logical side of things. It keeps me going, but I can't find any logical explanations to this dream. If I tell it it to you, maybe I'll grab a sense of clarity. I hope so. Usually I dream about normal things in my every day life, like my family and friends. This dream wasn't the kind that I normally have. I asked Missy about it, and she said that I'm dreaming about my future. I'm actually seeing my future. I don't know what to believe. I think that I better to tell the dream before I forget about it. It starts out like this: I'm at this office with the most handsome man that I'd ever seen with brown hair and hazel eyes. I don't know why, but I know that I care for him deeply much more than my current boyfriend, David. This man and I share a bond that time and space can't break. We're soul-mates. Eternal soul-mates. He's the perfect man for Missy, but he loves me for who I am. He calls me 'Scully' instead of 'Dana'--unlike what my family and friends call me. I'm always 'Dana' to them or 'D.K.' to Missy, but never am I 'Scully.' That's usually reserved for Ahab or my brothers, Bill Jr. and Charlie. What does the dream tell me? That I'll met the man of my dreams? I wonder if he dreams about me because I certainly dream about him. In an another dream, I dreamt about him again. This time, I can feel him. I'm crying against the warmth of his body, and he reassures me that I'm all right. I can feel his hand stroking my auburn hair, and I knew that I was safe from harm. I know that I love him, and I know that he's in love with me too. For some strange reason, we don't tell each other. I don't know why. I wish that I'd know. If I had a caring man in my life, I'd tell him. Someday, I will. ~Dana The End Author's Note: This story is about an idea that I had written in my notebook about possible upcoming stories, and I thought that it would be interesting for Scully to have a dream about Mulder before she even met him. It's probably been done before over and over again, but this is my version that I wanted to share with you. I hope you like it. Feedback: Only nice feedback.
