Mulder woke up but was afraid to open his eyes. Afraid to see it had all
been a dream, Afraid to wake up back to the real nightmare. Slowly but
surely he opened his eyes a tiny crack and examined the room. Nothing out
of the ordinary, it could all point in either direction. On top of one
dresser say Scully's things and the other was bare. One dresser had a few
things sticking out of some drawers and the other was neat as a pin.
Everything looked the same, he never moved her things. He really didn't
know what to believe anymore. He heard a noise out in the living room and
instinctively retrieved his gun from the nightstand. He crept out to the
source of the noise and almost wet his pants at the site that greeted him.
He didn't want to have to explain the gun so he crept back into the bedroom
to put it away and then slipped back into the hallway. He leaned on the
door frame for a minuet taking in the site before him. There was a seven
month pregnant Scully sitting on the couch laughing along with a little
girl. All he could see of the little girl was strawberry blond hair bobbing
with laughter as she turned her head to talk to her mother. Scully threw
her head back in laughter as she tickled Emily mercilessly. Mulder then
swooped in to "save" her from the tickle torture.
"Good thing you came and scooped me up! Mom was giving me the tickle torture!"
"So what did you do that was so rotten?"
Emily gave her best "who me?" face up at Mulder and he couldn't help but smile. He then decided the only way to get the answer out of her was to use tickle torture himself.
"OKAY!... okay..."
She managed to squeal out in between fits of laughter.
"Mommy and me were decidin weatha we thought da baby would be a boy or a girl and I says that no matta what it was it hadda take afta you a'cuz it hadda be tall and mommy says that I'm just trying to say she's fat but I was'a tryin to splain."
Finally the little girl paused long enough from Mulder's eyes to widen and give her one of those "really" looks. She took a deep breath and launched right back into her story.
"See's I wasn't really trying to call mommy fat I was just trying to tell her I thought the baby took after you daddy..."
Mulder knew Emily was still telling her story but he wasn't entirely listening. His heart skipped a beat when she called him daddy. She had been doing it for about a month before her death but it had been so long to him. After a wile he felt a soft tapping on the side of his head. He looked up to see Emily knocking lightly on the side of his head.
"Hello? Is my daddy in dere?"
Mulder smiled so the little girl seemed to continue.
"So what do you think the baby will be."
Mulder already knew it would be a little baby girl born at 7:18 pm April first which was a fitting birthday for this family anyway. He smiled a bit at his inside joke but then shook himself back to reality.
"I think it'll be a little sweet girl... just like you."
He smiled a bittersweet smile and Emily Smiled back. She then Squirmed to get down and then ran over to her mom. Mulder then realized something. He couldn't remember anything about the day Scully and the baby died... but he had to figure out why they died so he could save them. He told Scully he was going to call Skinner and tell him he would work at home for the morning. He then retreated to his room and his laptop.
