Because I'm so sweet (someone yells "Yeah right!" in back) I'm giving you guys another chapter J. Scully point-of-view.

"You're in everyone I see
so tell me
do you see me?"

-Michelle Branch, 'Everywhere'

Beep. Beep. Beep.


I hold William's hand tight as guilty tears fall down my face. "I'm here William, hang on…" He was fighting to stay alive and was my entire fault. Why did I give him up for adoption again?


'You did the right thing, you were protecting him.' Mulder's voice echoed through my mind. 'You didn't get him here, it wasn't your fault.' Oh, God I wish so badly he was behind me, his hand on my shoulder. But the last time I had seen him as nearly three years ago. I remember our last conversation together.


"I'm really flattered, Mulder… but I can't… I love you, but I can't marry you…"
"I know… I just wish that I could… but we both know that, don't we?"
"Yeah, guess we do…"
"I'll miss one hell of a lot." He embraced me and, for the first time, I could see him crying.
"I'll miss you, too."


"Dana? T-that is your name, right?" A girl about William's age came in; she had tears gleaming in her silver eyes and a blood red rose in her grasp. "I'm Virginia, Monica's niece."


Monica's niece? This was the "killer"?


"You're his mom… I saw you."


"You saw me?" I answered, quite puzzled. "Where?"

 
"In my dreams, William saw you, too."
