'DADDY'

/Close
your eyes,
Have no fear,
The monster's gone,
He's on the run
And your daddy's here ../
Mulder swayed in the hallway outside Scully's bedroom, crooning
softly to William against his chest, trying to quiet the baby's
sobs without waking Scully.
Mulder was still awed by everything. He hadn't stopped smiling
since yesterday. William was so tiny, so beautiful, so amazing.
And his - his and Scully's. He'd never imagined that anything
could be so wonderful, and he'd never felt so proud - or hopeful
for the future - in his life.
/I can hardly wait
To see you come of age ../

Somewhere in New Mexico, Mulder laid his head on his outstretched
arm and sobbed. The photograph fluttered from between his fingers
to land beside his forgotten burger and tepid coffee.
/Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
boy ../
