Slice the bagel in half and toast it in a toaster until golden brown.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Add the salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely, coating the skillet evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a few seconds until it begins to set around the edges.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges to the center, forming soft curds. Continue cooking until the eggs are softly cooked and slightly runny; remove from heat. They will continue to cook from the residual heat.
Spread cream cheese on one or both sides of the toasted bagel if desired.
Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of the bagel.
Top with chives if using for added flavor.
Place the top half of the bagel over the eggs, forming a sandwich, and serve immediately.
