Where did all the reviews go.... sobs I only got one....
Dana now lay peacefully next to Fox. She had convinced them to let her in the same room as him after convincing them that she wouldn't be calm until she was in the same room with him and everyone knew the stress wouldn't be good on the baby. Her mother sat in between the two beds her right hand holding Dana's left and her left hand holding Fox's right. She smiled and Dana and then her eyes traveled back over to Fox's face. Not a single spot wasn't bruised or cut on his hands or his face. She rubbed her thumb over the back of his knuckles and squeezed his hand slightly. She then turned her attention back to her daughter.
"Listen sweaty I'm going to be right back okay?"
"Okay."
Her mother squeezed her hand and then Fox's and then she was gone. Dana slowly eased herself out of bed and moved her mother's chair slightly over so it was facing Fox. She took hold of his hand and rubbed her thumb across his knuckles. She took her other hand and rubbed the back of it against his cheek. She then leaned down and kissed his forehead.
"Mulder, please come back to us."
Her voice came out as barely above a whisper but she knew he couldn't hear anyway. She placed one hand on the small mound and absentmindedly rubbed invisible little circles trying to calm the weird floppsy feeling. She heard a moan and looked up just in time to see his eyes flutter open.
"Fox!"
She gripped him tightly but backed off when he moaned.
"I'm sorry..."
Her eyes scanned him up and down and he saw worry all over them. He did his best to put on a smile.
"Did I hurt you?"
"Just a little, and what are you doing out of bed?"
She smiled at him with tears in her eyes, she could tell it hurt him to talk, but he could tell that his voice comforted her.
"Get back in there."
Scully smiled and climbed back in to her bed just as the nurse came in.
"How are we doing Miss Scully?"
"I'm fine."
"Don't believe her."
Mulder smiled at Scully as she threw him a mock evil glare.
"Well I'll check back later then."
The nurse made some marks down on her chart and left as William Scully walked in.
"Ahh how's my starbuck?"
"Better now that he's awake."
"Oh, I see. Glad you're back in the land of the living Mulder."
"Mulder..."
Fox said it kind of dreamily and smiled.
"Oh, Ahab here just calls people by their last names."
"No... I like it... it's better than Fox."
"Alright then Mulder."
I'm sorry I tried! I did I did! I'll wait for the rest though... I will I will... I hope...heh heh.... IT'S JUST SO TEMPTING! CAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO WANT TO KNOW WHAT I'M SITTING ON!
