Mulder took Scully's hand and squeezed it tightly as the picture of the ultrasound came on the screen. Scully glanced up at him and smiled when he leaned down and kissed her gently on the cheek. Mulder was happy ever since he had heard the news of the pregnancy. They had been trying for over a year with complications and when it seemed hopeless, suddenly a miracle happened… Scully became pregnant. Mulder glanced down at her increasing belly. He couldn't believe it was really finally happening. It had been a hard year but it was worth it.

"Look Mulder, there it is" Scully whispered as the saw a small shape on the monitor. Mulder glanced at the screen and it finally sunk in… he was going to be a dad. Scully felt his hand squeeze around hers, just then the doctor mumbled something.

"This doesn't look right?" Mulder and Scully both looked at him.

"What? Is there something the matter?" Mulder asked as Scully swallowed hard. The doctor looked at them.

"I don't want you to be alarmed, we need to wait for the blood test but it seems your baby may have some severe deformities, some of the internal organs don't look like the are developing properly but like I said we have to wait for the blood test to come back before we come to any conclusions" Mulder and Scully stood stunned

"So what are you saying? Is my baby going to be ok?" Scully demanded. The doctor pursed his lips as he stopped the ultrasound to look at them.

"Mr and Mrs Mulder. What I'm saying is if the tests come back the way I think they will, when your baby is born it will be permanently in a vegetative state and wheelchair bound for the rest of it's life" Mulder felt a lump form in his throat.

"Are you sure?" He croaked. The Doctor nodded slowly and crossed his arms.

"Like I said we just have to wait for the test to come back but if they come back positive then I'm afraid if you go through with the pregnancy then your baby will grow up not knowing who it's Mum and Dad ever will be."
