"I can't believe it. Parenting? I don't think I could handle kids for more than an hour right now." Skully stated. She stared out the window as the trees and walls zoomed by. She looked over at her partner. *Well at least I have to share the horror with him* He stared out at the road. He had a small smirk on his face.

"Don't worry I think you'd make a great mom. Remember it's just for a week or two. And you'll be with me." He reached over and patted her shoulder. She swatted his hand away and laughed.

"Thanks for the compliment" She replied sarcastically, "You would make a strange ass father though." He pretended to be hurt.

"Hey I know more about parenting than you do. I had to baby-sit my neighbors kids for a hours when I was ten." Skully looked horrified then rolled her eyes.

"They'll probably need counseling when they grow up. They'll think they saw little grey men under their beds."

Mulder just laughed and pulled up to a house. They had been assigned to watch over (Skully said they had to be parents) two kids for a few weeks because they were witnesses. Their parents had been murdered and they had confessed to the F.B.I. what the guy looked like. Their boss told them to be as parent like as possible to kind of ease the pain. That meant they had to live at the house and everything. They both thought this to be ridiculous and said that the kids should be put in a foster home or witness protection.

"Ok Skully lets meet our kids."

"Their not ours!" Suddenly a girl of about 12 opened the door. Mulder and Skully gasped and fell back a bit because they didn't knock. Mulder immediately liked the girl.

"How did you do that?" He asked.

"I had a feeling you were here." She said with an eerie smile. She turned and walked into the house, leaving the door open.

"She's yours" Skully whispered. Mulder chuckled and shook his head. The girl was about five feet tall and wore tan boy shorts and a green sweater that said "Their Coming" with a pair of yellow eyes underneath.

"This is my brother. He's a smart alec so watch out." A boy a bit taller walked up. He wore a neat blue shirt and dark blue pants.

"Shut up Cat. Hi I'm Justin. It's nice to meet you." He held out his hand to shake. Skully took it and smiled.

"I'm Agent Fox Mulder and this is-"

"Agent Dana Skully. We're going to make sure your ok for the next few weeks." The girl walked into the kitchen and motioned for them to follow.

"I'm Cat. My real name is Cathleen but call me Cat." She pulled out a large bowl and a bag of noodles. As she made her dinner her brother showed them around.

"This is Cat's room. She's a weird-o." Mulder was intrigued by her room. She was into aliens and outer space things to. He walked over to her night stand and picked up a small glass box. Inside was a glowing blob of some sort.

"It's a piece of extra terrestrial skin. I found it in our backyard a few years ago. I use it to read at night." Mulder jumped and turned. Cat stood at his side and was looking up at the box. He looked into her eyes. They were the same color as his only there was a lot more pain and anguish in them. He shivered as she looked back at him. Her eyes were so accusing. He put the box down and looked around. The others had gone. "Come on I'll show you your room." She walked out and he followed. It was going to be two long weeks.

"I like the boy. He's clean cut and-"

"Exactly like you" Mulder finished. He was walking around the room looking at pictures and staring at the décor. Skully sat on the bed.

"Well that girl certainly has your personalities." Mulder turned to her.

"Maybe we had kids when we were drunk and these are them." Mulder attempted a serious face when he said this but failed miserably.

"I was never drunk with you Mulder." Mulder leaned on the door frame.

"To your knowledge." He had a gleam in his eyes and a mischievous smile on his face.

"Dinner's ready." Mulder jumped and gave a little yell. Skully rolled on the bed laughing. Cat had been standing by him for about a minute and he never noticed.

At dinner they all sat quietly and ate. "Why do you wear that suit Dana?" Cat asked with a raised eyebrow. Skully looked at her skeptically.

"Yeah, Dana. Why do you?" Mulder looked over at the girl and winked. Cat smiled.

"Because she is not a fool like you guys. She represents the smart one out of the agents." Skully looked a Mulder and smiled triumphantly. Cat stuck her tongue out at Justin and Mulder stuck his out at Skully. They laughed and slapped a high five. Justin and Skully rolled their eyes.

"Goodnight Cat."

"Goodnight Fox." Mulder smiled and turned out the light. He walked to their room and saw Skully already in bed. He got in and pulled her close.

"Mulder! Let go!" She struggled to get out of his strong grasp but failed. He laughed.

"But we're mom and dad! We should snuggle!"

"Not tonight. I've got a headache!" He rolled his eyes and let go.

"Our love life is down the drain." Skully sighed, frustrated.

"Goodnight Mulder"

"Night hon."

"Mulder!"

Kelia: How did you guys like it? Was it good? I hope it was because I worked hard. Semi-hard. Ok I didn't work Andrew did it all. I just laid on my bed and he typed it. I'm lazy what do you expect?
