It was now hours later but the moments of before were still flashing threw
his head.
He was so happy she was ok, and then she was not. It was all so fast. He sees himself running into the hospital. He sees how she just looks like she's sleeping as he carried her. He remembers screaming frantically for someone to help her.
Now he sits in the waiting room while doctors are racing in and out of her room trying to figure out what happen. His eyes fill up with tears as he drinks the last of what was his twenty-third cup of coffee. He gets up to throw away the empty cup and blinks back the tears. He could see straight into her room through a big window now, for he moved to the hallway.
He looks up in time to see Maggie Scully running up to every nurse asking unanswered questions. Then in comes Bill. Mulder had forgotten he was staying in town. He did not even want to waste his time thinking about what Bill would say. He just stood up and walked towards Maggie. Mulder could see the semi relief when she saw him. So Mulder decided to do the talking.
"They don't know what's wrong yet. But what ever happened seemed to be just slowing her pulse little by little so she was not in any pain. She just felt like she was getting tired."
Maggie let a sigh escape her lips. "Well at least she wasn't in pain." Bill on the other hand didn't hear what Mulder had said and of course blamed everything that went wrong on Mulder.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BABY SISTER?!?!?" Mulder however had expected this.
"I didn't..." But Mulder was cut off when a nurse came in and began to speak to him.
"We have her pulse up where it belongs, and it seems that she had ingested some kind of toxin. Possibly someone who knew where she lived, because it seems she was still ingesting it when some of it had already taken affect. But we are still taking tests to see exactly what the toxin was."
Maggie's face was getting worried. "Can we see her now?"
The nurse smiled. "Of course. However, she is going in and out of consciousness so if she isn't up I must ask you not to disturb her."
Maggie smiled back showing some relief. "Of course not."
They all went to go to the room but Bill grabbed Mulder by the sleeve and called up to his mom "We're just going to be there in a sec."
Maggie nodded her head and went into her daughter's room. Scully was sleeping and Maggie smiled at how peaceful she looked. And sat down next to the bed not even thinking about what was going on outside.
************* In The Hallway

"Listen here Mr. Mulder! I will NOT have you hurting my baby sister every time I turn around!"
"She's NOT a baby!"
"But she IS my baby sister! And I will do everything in my power to protect her from you!"
"I didn't.." Bill cut him off.
"Listen Dana doesn't need you around..."
"That's not for you to say."
"That may be so but she thinks so too."
"What?"
"She was talking to me before she told me that she realized what a mistake letting you into her life was. She came to me asking my advice for a way to brush you off gently."
Mulder stared over through the window where he could see Scully laying so helpless and Maggie sitting by holding her hand. He fought back the tears but knew Bill was right. It was all his fault. He couldn't let Bill see him break down though. He turned to Bill.
"That won't be a problem. Tell her good-bye for me."
Mulder walked down the stairs because the elevator was taking too long finally, he got to his car. He drove home but before going to his apartment just drove around the block a few times. Finally, he just went home. When he got there he slammed the door shut so hard that the baseball bat that was leaning against the wall fell down. Mulder tripped over it and swore to thin air.
He picked it up and remembered his arms around Scully as they swung the bat together. Tears filled his eyes threatening to spill over. All that time they shared and Scully thought it was a mistake. Mulder brought the bat back over his head and brought it down hard on the end table next to his couch. Then he went on smashing everything in sight until his living room was nothing but broken glass and splinters of wood.
The only light was that that streamed in through the window. But the light fell perfectly onto the picture of Scully. He picked it up cutting his hand on the broken glass of the frame it was in but didn't care. He just stared into those liquid blue eyes and let the tears spill over. He leaned back against the wall and slid down it till he was on the floor. He kissed the picture of Scully and then sat there just staring at it. Then a look of hate filled his eyes.
'How could I have been so stoupid as to actually think that she was my friend and that maybe she was my BESTFRIEND and that maybe...just maybe...she loved me like I have loved her for years.'
The look of hate grew fainter as he began to feel strangely tired. But the hate inside him didn't lessen. He pocketed the picture and decided to go for a drive. He didn't know where to go he just drove deep into the night. His vision began to blur. Figureing it was tears he reached up to wipe them away but they wouldn't go away. His vision grew weaker and weaker, I guess that's why he didn't notice he had swayed over into the on coming traffic.
******************** I just remembered that if Scully did get the toxin from her apartment Mulder would have too. So anyways I had to make it so it made him sick too. Okay this may sound childish but if you want more story, I want more reviews.
