The Duplication. Part 2.

I paused in my thought and noticed that he now had his hand at the small of my back. The way he always did when going anywhere. We were interrupted by a loud cough.

"I'll come back, when you're not too busy." Dogget quickly left us alone.

"Do you think he's jealous or embarrassed?" I jokingly asked Mulder.

"Both! He should be jealous of me 'cos I'm the luckiest man, to be kissing you is to be tasting heaven." Mulder leaned forward and planted a simple yet sweet kiss on my forehead.

"That's so sweet Mulder." I kissed him more and more intensely as I heard another cough. Standing there was Skinner and the nurse, both with shocked expressions on their faces.

"I think you should be resting Dana, you were stabbed." I blushed as Harriet walked in. Mulder blushed, as Skinner just stood there wide-eyed in disbelief.

"If I could just have a few private words with the patient please men." Harriet shooed the men out and shut the door, through the glass I could see Mulder going even redder as what looked like Mulder trying to explain to Skinner what was going on. I was brought back to normal with Harriet calling my name.

"Dana, were you listening to a word I said. Or were you a little too busy looking at your friend?" She picked up my charts and scribbled something down.

"What were you trying to tell me?" I tried stealing a glance at my charts but I couldn't.

"What I was saying was that I have some news about your tests from earlier. Do you want to know?" Harriet set my charts down and sat in the chair.

"Don't tell me, I'm not pregnant and that I have a stomach bug." I joked as I then realised the stern look on her face.

"Wrong. I don't know if this is good or bad news. Dana, your pregnant. I can't explain it.but according to tests we did earlier, there's no way you could be pregnant. All the staff think it's a miracle." She beamed as I looked down at my stomach.

"How far gone am I?" I didn't know what I was going to do.

"3 weeks exactly today." She looked at the door and smiled

"Can you give me a few minutes alone please?" I needed to think things through. She pulled the curtain round and went to leave. I didn't know that she had let Mulder in without me hearing. I couldn't help but reel like crying. I let the tears fall as I questioned everything.

"How could this be? It can't be.. it means more time off work. I don't know if Mulder will be strong enough this time. What if he abandons me? 3 weeks isn't that long." I buried my head in my hands as the curtains were drawn back. I looked up with red puffy eyes to see Mulder's eyes like mine.

"Scully. I would never abandon you! We can make the most out of 3 weeks. Don't worry, we can get a cure again." I started crying again as he held me in a strong hug.

"It's ok, I'm here." Mulder placed a gentle kiss on my forehead.

"No Mulder. I haven't got cancer. It's more complicated. I'm pregnant with your child." I looked down feeling ashamed.

"What, when, how?" Mulder lifted my chin up so that his hazel eyes were staring deep into my eyes.

"Well as I said I'm pregnant, 3 weeks ago and you know how women get pregnant." I blushed as he realised his wording was wrong.

"What I mean is how did we end up.you know." Mulder blushed as he had his typical Mulder thoughts.

"Well you know 3 weeks ago, you came round mine after we finished a case. We had some wine? Well in the morning I found myself entwined in your gripping hug in my bed. I snuck out, got dressed and slept on my couch." I blushed a deeper red than Mulder.

"I thought I dreamt that! You mean we could have been experiencing that but we were too drunk to remember?" Mulder checked his pocket and continued talking.

"If your already pregnant the I guess I should have done this before when I had a chance." Mulder knelt down on one knee and got out a royal blue ring box.

"Will you make all my dreams come true by saying one simple word?" He opened up the box and showed me. I burst out laughing as he opened his eyes again, looking very angry which only made him look even sexier as I remembered that night.

"Well, I try being serious. I pour my heart out and you laugh at me!" Mulder slammed the box shut and went to get up to leave. I put my hand on his, which stopped him.

"Yes is the answer but the box is empty." I pointed to the box in his right hand and he immediately threw it open. Upon discovering the ring wasn't there sent him into a mad search of his pockets.

"Does it happen to look like a thing gold band with 3 diamonds and on the inside is it engraved with the words 'forever mine'?" I looked at his shock but relieved face.

"Yes, where is it? Where did you find it?" Mulder sat down on the bed and kissed me.

"Well.umm.3 weeks ago I woke up to find this ring on my finger but I didn't know where it came from and I forgot about it." I slid the ring off and handed it to mulder who promptly got down on one knee and proposed all over again. I immediately said yes. We sealed our love with a long romantically filled kiss. It seemed to go on forever as we explored each other so much that we were both left breathless. Skinner walked in with Dogget to find me and Mulder entwined in hugging each other, with Mulder placing butterfly kisses from my neck to my lips.

"Um..hi Skinner." I smiled as I noticed him out the corner of my eye after separating myself from Mulder.

"Are you sure, your not 'busy'?" Dogget laughed as Mulder turned round and waved.

"We were just celebrating a funny situation." Mulder put his arm around my shoulder as both Skinner and Dogget looked puzzled.

"I'm pregnant and Mulder proposed..again." I laughed as Mulder burst out laughing.

"Congratulations but what do you mean 'again'?" Dogget pulled up a chair and sat down, as did Skinner.

"Well, we got drunk 3 weeks ago and I woke up engaged and pregnant. I didn't know about either of them till just now." I looked at Dogget as he tried to but failed to hold in his laughter.

"Sorry, but it's just so funny the way you said it." Skinner also ended up in fits of laughter just as Monica walked in looking around at all of us laughing.

"What's so funny?" Monica walked over and lent on Dogget's chair. After we explained what had happened we needed up in tears from laughing so much. The nurse came into the room to find us all in varying degrees of laughter/crying.

"Ok you lot. I'm afraid visiting time's over. Mr Mulder will you be staying the night in Miss Scully's room tonight?" Harriet asked as she looked at Mulder. "Yes I will if that's ok but it's not 'Miss Scully'. Her name will be hopefully changing in a short while." Mulder beamed as he thankfully took the pillow and blanket from the nurse.

"Pardon? I don't quite follow." Harriet looked very confused.

"We're engaged and I'm soon to be 'Mrs Dana Mulder." I moved the blanket and showed Harriet the ring on my finger. It sparkled in the hospital light as she squealed with what sounded like delight or craziness.

"Oh congratulations!" Harriet jumped around clapping.

"Right..thank you. Can I talk to Mulder please?" I asked Harriet, as she left I noticed something on the back of her neck. It was the same thing that Emily had. She was an ALIEN!

"Mulder, can I ask you a favour?" I started looking around, nervously checking for cameras.

"Sure! Anything for you Scully." Mulder got up and stroked my hair.

"Get me a sonogram scanner right now!" I whispered to him.

"What's wrong, should I get the nurse?" Mulder turned around to leave.

"No!! She's an alien. You know what Emily had on her neck?? She has that but more pronounced. Use your sneakiness to get one without anyone knowing." I smiled as he took the hint. 10 minutes later he returned with a bag.

"Got it!" He pulled the curtain round and pulled out the bottle of gel and plugged the machine in. I got the gel and smeared it all over my abdomen. I winced as the coldness spread over my stomach.
