Summary: Scully has a dream about the future.

Note- this is my first piece of fanfic. So write me and tell me how I did.

Now on with the story

In the the backyard there are three kids playing happily. "Fox, get your sisters off the swing set and come inside," his mother commanded.

"Do I have to?" he whined.

"Yes, you do. dinner is almost ready and your father should be home soon," she said sternly.

Upon hearing this exchange, two identicalical red-haired little girls jumped off the swings and rushed to the porch where their mother was. Fox followed behind slowly.

"Be quiet before you wake your baby brother up," their mother reminded them. "Girls, go upstairs and wash your hands. Fox go put on a new shirt, that one's dirty."

"Why?" both girls asked at the same time.

"Because we're having company," she answered.

"Who, who?!?!" The girls were excited at this point.

"Sam, Missy I told you to keep your voices down. Your Uncle Walter. Now hurry up."

Just as she was setting the table the door opened. "Hi, honey," she called.

"Hi angel, how was your day?" the man asked kissing her on the cheek.

"Daddy, Daddy!!!!" the twins yelled running to their father.

Hugging them he asked, "How are my two clones today?"

"Daddy, we are not clones," one of them declared.

The other one spotted their uncle at the same time. "Uncle Wally!!!!" she screamed as they both ran to him.

A loud cry sounded throughout the house.

"Great now the baby's awake,'' their mother sighed.

"We'll go get him since we woke him up," Walter said, taking the girls' hands as he lead them out the kitchen.

"So, sport what did you do today?" Mulder bent down to be the same height as his son.

Fox jr. leaned close to his father's ear. "I think that I found a piece of a UFO," he whispered excitedly, running of to go get it.

"So how is my beautiful wife today?" he asked getting up off the floor and turning to her.

"Flattery will get you nowhere Mulder," she teased wraping her arms around his neck.

"Yes it will, Dana. yes it will."

"Yeah prove it."

"Well.. I got you to marry me."

"Flattery is not the reason I married you." "Ok then why did you marry me?" he asked.

"Because I love you," she returned.

"Well good because I love you too," he wispered as he leaned in to kiss her mouth........

Scully awoke with a start, sitting straight up.

That was weird. Mulder and I married, with kids and Skinner as an 'uncle.' No, it is too weird, she thought. Not that she didn't love Mulder, But she didn't think that life would ever be that way.

The ringing of a phone brought her out of her trance. She looked at the clock 3:15. *Mulder*

"Scully," she answered.

"It's me."

"What do you want, Mulder?"

"Um.. I couldn't sleep so thought I'd call you and see if I could come over," he finished in a rush.

"Oh Mulder, what ever am I going to do to with you?" Love him unconditionally, her mind responded.

"So is that a 'yes'?"

"Only if you bring some popcorn," Scully answered.

"Scully, where the hell am I going to get popcorn at three in the morning?"

"Well, put it this way, Mulder. No popcorn, no Scully."

"Okay, Okay I'll get you your damn popcorn," he said hanging up.

Scully got out of bed to get dress, trying hard not to think about the dream.

Pulling on her tee-shirt Scully was still thinking about that dream. It is just too weird. Mulder and I married. Him calling me 'angel'. it could never ever happen.

The door bell bought her out of her dream like state. "Coming," she called walking to answer the door. Opening it she found Mulder holding a big bag of popcorn.

"Hey Scully. I got your popcorn," he said with a sheepish look on his face.

"Come on in Mulder," she commanded waving him in to the living room.

He sat on the couch.

"Mulder, I'm going to get a bowl for the popcorn.do you want anything to drink?"

"Ice tea," came the reply

I hope he doesn't stay long, because I going to have that dream on my mind for awhile, she thought get the glasses and a bowl down.

After pouring the tea, she walked back into the living room.

Handing him a glass she asked, "So Mulder, why couldn't you sleep this time?"

"Well, I was thinking about something important," he answered taking his drink from her.

"What about? A new case?"

"About some thing very important."

Scully was really confused. What couldbe so important that he would stay up half the night. Mulder was strange but not that strange. She was about ask him more about it when he interupted her.

"You didn't sound like I had woken you up when I called. What where you doing up?"

"I had a dream and it woke me up," she answred truthfully, hoping he didn't ask what about.

"What was the dream about?"

Damn it, Scully thought . Taking a handfully of popcorn, she ate it and then answered. "Do you remember in Home, PA where you told me to find 'a genetically perfect man and start poping out the little uberscullys'? It was sorta about that." She rambled in a rush. By now she had Mulder confused.

"I remember, but how does that have anything to do with your dream?"

She took a deep breath before telling him about the dream. "Well I walked out on a porch, looking at a backyard. It had a sand box and a swind set. There was a boy in the sand box and two girls on the swing set.I told the boy to come in the house. I called him Fox. I sent them up stairs to get cleaned up, because we were having company. And then the door opened and you and Skinner walked in. The girls called you daddy and Skinner Uncle Wally. I heard a baby crying and then Skinner and the kids left. You ask how your bea..." Scully stoped then realizing what she was about to say.

"Don't stop Scully. My what?" Mulder asked excited.

Gulp. "Your beatifully wife was and then you put your arms around me." This was so hard to tell but she had to tell him "Then you said that you loved me," Scully finished on a wisper, a tear runing down her face.

Mulder gently wriped the tear away. "Dana." the use of her first name made he look up.

"That important thing that I was thinking about was you, and this," while saying this Mulder reached in to his pocket and pulled out a small box. Mulder got down on one knee and opening the box reveling a small dimond ring.

Scully eyes were beginning to fill up with tears knowing,hoping, she know what was coming.

"Dana Katherine Scully will you do me the honors of becoming my wife?" he proposed.

Scully, upon hearing this, lost it. The tears flowed over.

Mulder got back up on the couch and took her in his arms. "Shsh Angel sshh."

Scully looked up at him tears runing down her face. "You called me that in my dream too."

"What, Angel?" he asked.

She nodded.

"Well if you ever answered my question, I'll call you Angel for the rest of my life."

"Yes, Mulder, I'll marry you." she answered.

Mulder's lips met hers for the first time.

The kiss held promises about the future. When the finally came up for air, tears streaming down both their faces.

"I think your dream was a clip from the future," Mulder said.

"I think so too."

"I love you Scully," Mulder declared.

"And I love you too," Scully said, making everthing perfect.

The End
