SUMMARY: Mulder writes a letter to Santa Claus. *This was written in response to Haven's "155 Words: Dear Santa Challenge." * ------------------------------------ 155 Words: Dear Santa by Fox Mulder Written by: Erin M. Blair ------------------------------------ Dear Santa, This is a hard letter for me to write. Normally, I don't ask for much. I haven't asked for much since Samantha's disappearance, but this year I'm making an exception. This year's different -- I want Scully to know how much I'm deeply in love with her. We have been through so much this year especially since the basement office burned and our trip to Blackwood, Texas. What I want for Christmas is to find a way to tell Scully how much I love her. She believes that I'm in love with Diana Fowley. Diana's my ex-partner and it has been over for many years. I don't know why Scully believes this, but I would like to set the record straight. I don't know how. I know I should be writing to an advice columnist like "Dear Irma," but I thought you could give me something like a promise ring to give to her. I hope you can deliver the most beautiful diamond ring so she'll know that I'm in love with her. I hope you will have a wonderful Christmas this year. Thank you, Fox Mulder -- the end -- Feedback: Yes, please. Send to: eblair@sonic.net Author's Notes: This was written in response to Haven's "155 Words: Dear Santa" fanfic challenge. I thought it was such a cute challenge so I immediately thought of Mulder writting a letter to Santa Claus. :) I hope you enjoy it. :)
