Mulder was sitting alone in his apartment, on the computer, when he heard knocking at the door.

"Who is it?"

"It's me." He heard Scully's voice from outside.

He turned off his computer and went to open the door.

"Hey, Scully. What are you doing here so late? Isn't it a little past your bedtime" He said and gave a small smile.

"You know, I could be asking you the exact same question."

"But I was asleep." He said innocently and exaggerated a fake yawn. "You woke me up."

"You liar."

"One of my speciatlies. So, what did you say you came here for again"

"I didn't."

"Oh. Okay, then what are you here for?"

She sighed and looked at him, her face showing sadness, but her eyes gleaming with joy. She unzipped her purse and dug in it for something. She took out a little blue bag and handed it to Mulder.

"What's this" He said as he took it.

"Just look inside."

He looked puzzled but looked in anyway. When he did, what he saw made his eyes go wide. He looked at Scully, shocked.

Tears welled up in Scully's eyes.

"Guess what"

1 Month Earlier Than That

Scully woke up with a smile on her face. She had just had the best night of her life with Mulder. She looked over at him, sleeping soundly, and her smile grew slightly larger. She sighed dreamily and closed her eyes. She would definitley be on Cloud 9 all day today. She slowly opened her eyes again...and gasped. Mulder was within inches of her face, and their noses were actually touching.

"Jesus, Mulder! Why'd you do that?"

He just laughed. It was a crystal clear laugh that filled the entire room.

Scully muttered something under her breath, but Mulder only caught "...give me a heart attack...gray hairs before I'm even forty...ugh..."

He laughed again.

"What may I ask is so funny?" Her voice held annoyaince, but her eyes still gleamed and a smile tugged at her lips, threatening to reveal itself.

"Ah, Miss, it is but your beauty that makes me laugh so full-heartedly."

The smile plunged out of its cage. She playfully shoved him.

The smile on Mulder's face dissapeared, but his eyes still showed laughter.

"Hey now! You don't have to get violent!" He whined, putting on the best puppy dog eyes he could muster.

It was Scully's turn to laugh.

"Sorry, Mulder. I'm an FBI Agent. The puppy dog eyes don't faze me any."

"Aha! Correction:You were an FBI Agent, before Skinner made us take this six-week leave. I think it's the best thing he could ever do for us. We're gonna have to repay him, you know."

"You're right, Mulder. But how?"

"We could give a donation to the bereau.(A/N:Sp?) Or...something..."

"You have no idea, do you?"

"Notta clue." He said before taking her and rolling her over onto her back, Scully giggling as he did.

"You ready to get up?" He asked.

"Hmmm..." She said mock thoughtfully. "I don't think so..."

He raised his eyebrows at her, and she took the hint. They were both in for a very playfull morning.

Back the Present

"Scully, this...this just isn't possible. Literally. There was that one time, and only because the aliens implanted that chip. How..." Mulder trailed off, looking at the test in amazment.

"I know. But...I don't know...maybe, that last time, they changed something. Maybe they only wanted me barren for a limited time. But I don't really care how it happened. I'm just glad it happened with you."

Mulder's head snapped up.

"W-what?"

"I went to the doctor yesterday, Mulder. (Pause) This" She gestured to her stomach. "is your baby."
