Summary: Mulder's POV
******************************************

He looks around at his family. "Family"? 
Who would have imagined "Spooky" Mulder to have a family one day?
He is still amazed by the wonder of it all. 
He doesn't want to understand the hows and whys of this moment. 

He wants to freeze this moment in time, to convince himself 
its for real.That its just not another dream, which may 
turn into a nightmare soon.He feels like he has been thrown in 
another moment of time, another space and wonders 
whether he truly belongs here, besides "his" Scully. 
Yes, his Scully in every sense of the word. His partner,
his soulmate, the part that makes him whole, 
and his tether to sanity, when his world was upside down. 

He watches her asleep. She looks so peaceful,and happy.
The worry lines in her forehead which seemed to 
be always there,because of him, he thinks for a moment, 
are erased now. He looks at the soft curves of her body,
and studies her face intently. 

Her soft titian hair, her soft , feathery,eyelashes, 
which cover those sparkling blue eyes, 
whose depth he will always be unable to fathom.He wants to
memorise her face,forever . He kisses her,softly,tenderly. 
She feels so warm, alive. His heart constricts with love for her.
He doesn't think that he will be able to love anybody ever, so much. 

He looks down at his son, fast asleep in the bassinet, 
lost in his own world of dreams and fantasy. Do babies really dream? 
He wonders.His son smiles in his sleep. 
Maybe, he is sure, that his father will be always 
there to protect him,that he will always be safe, 
at his home,in his own little world.

His father will make sure, that his son will not have the nightmares 
that he did. His son will not be lost in this world. 
He will always have his parents to return to.
His heart aches with love for his son. 
His father wants to watch him grow up, be happy. 
There will be no quests of truth for his son, 
where he will be a broken man at the end of it all. 

Yes, this is his family. His Scully, and his son, Will.
After years of struggle, loneliness,like a ship 
lost in the choppy seas of life, he has finally found his anchor. 
There will be no more quests for truth,terrifying moments for him.
Only moments of happiness and bliss.

His inner demons have been finally led to rest. 
From now on, his sleep will be sans nightmares, 
for he is finally home, home to his family.
