Chapter 2
It's friday morning. My cellphone rings, I moan and reach for it.
„Scully" I say sleepily.
„Hello. It's Skinner"
„Hello, sir" I say trying to sound polite.
„I just wanted you to know that you can take the day off. There is no case for you and the paperwork can wait until Mulder is doing well again."
„Well...thank you, sir. But I can do the paperwork today, it's no problem"
„Agent Scully, you really don't need to. Take the day off. I'll see you and Mulder on monday"
„Okay. Thank you, sir" I say before I hang up. I look at my alarmclock: 8 AM. I sigh and lay back down on the bed. I close my eyes and begin dreaming...
„Mulder?" I say but I don't get an answer.
„Mulder? Mulder! Please, open your eyes!" I scream but again I don't get an answer.
„Help! Somebody help! Mulder, please open your eyes. I'm sorry I didn't believe you."
„Scully..." I hear Mulder whisper but his lips don't move. I touch his lips, they are cold as ice. I lean over his pale face. A tear is making it's way down my cheek. It lands on Mulders nose with a splat.
„Mulder? I can hear you! Please, open your eyes...I need you. Mulder...Mulder..." I repeat again and again. Everything around me starts to twirl and to disappear.
„Noooo" I scream at the top of my lungs.
I awake with a start. I'm breathing heavily. I climb out of bed and run into the bathroom. Five minutes later I come out and dress in my bedroom. I put on my shoes and my coat. I check whether my car keys are in my coat pocket or not. They are. Quickly I run out of my apartment and down the stairs to my car. I start the engine and take off. A little later I take out my cellphone and dialed a familiar number.
„Hello"
„Hello, sir. It's me." I quickly say.
„Agent Scully?" I hear Skinner say.
„Yeah. Did you hear anything from Mulder?" I ask him.
„Umm...no. Is anything wrong?"
„I don't know...I just..."
„Listen...he'll be fine. Mulder is always fine. He just needs to rest some days and then he's going to be the same funky spooky Mulder again." He tells me. I have to smile at the funky spooky Mulder thing.
„Yeah. I'm on the way to the hospital right now. Talk to you later."
I hang up the phone and drive into the parking lot. I get out of the car and walk into the building. When I reached the right floor a doctor was talking to a nurse right in front of Mulder's room. My heart starts to beat faster as I quickly walk towards them.
„Excuse me. I...Is everything all right with Fox Mulder?"
„Who are you?" The doctor asks.
„I'm his partner...Dan-"
„Dana Scully" The doctor cut off, smiling.
„How-"
„When I was checking on him he told me about you." He says.
„So, he is okay?"
„Yeah, he is doing pretty well. I was just about to check on him, when Dr. Tanner told me that he's still asleep"
I heave a sigh of relief.
„Thank you, doctor. May I go in and see him?"
„Of course. I'll check on him a little later" I nod before I open the door to his room. I close it quietly behind me. I walk towards the bed and smile. Thank god, he is okay. I take his hand and give it a squeeze. I lean forward and kiss his lips softly but carefully not to wake him.
„I'm so glad you are okay" I whisper „I'm sorry about yesterday...I'm sorry about everything. I was worried about you because I had that dream and-" I begin to cry. „And in my dream I was just about to lose you but I can't lose you, Mulder. I need you. I love you."
„Scully..."
„Mulder?"
