155 Words: Mulder and Doggett Team Up
Written by: Erin M. Blair
------------------------------------

Scully was on maternity leave from the FBI while
taking care of William. She watched Mulder as 
he sighed.

"I'm bored, Scully."

"I am sure they will give you your old job back,
Mulder."

"I screwed up big time, Scully."

"I know. I don't think Kersh will stay mad at you
for very long," said Scully. "I've seen how you've
been moping around the apartment." She 
paused. "Maybe Doggett would like some help."

Mulder nodded. He didn't want to admit Scully 
was right. Working with Doggett was fun, he 
remembered. Later, he went to see Doggett.

"Mulder, how come you're not with Scully?" 

Mulder didn't want to admit anything to Doggett. "I 
was wondering if you needed help on a case."

Doggett looked delighted at his offer.  "I could use 
the help, Mulder."

Mulder helped Doggett solve the case, and then 
he played with his son while Scully slept. Mulder 
knew how blessed he was.

Author's Notes: 

This story was started back in 2002 after the X-Files 
series finale but I shelved it until this summer. Then I
started to work on other stories. I didn't complete the more
finalized version until now. It took me years to complete this
one.

I know many people don't like Doggett. However, I thought 
it would be nice to capture Doggett and Mulder bonding.
