Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at half past six
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in.

:Not the Doctor

Scully rushed through the hospital doors up to the second floor. As soon as the elevator doors opened, she pulled out her ID and had it in-hand by the time she reached the nurse. "Fox Mulder, please." The nurse looked confused, but directed Scully to room 203. She opened the door, and Scully found herself hugging Mulder.

Mulder looked at Scully, and was both confused and happy. "Whoa, hey Scully. It's been a while."
Looking at Mulder, she simply wanted to start crying. Instead, she let go and cleared her throat as she straightened up. "Yeah, yeah it has been Mulder. I rushed here as soon as I found out. What happened?"

Mulder smiled at her softly, and held her hand in a firm, but loving grip. "We were on a case and I was shot. It was just my leg and my shoulder, a little above where you shot me." Mulder, now grinning, was about to say more when the door opened again and a young woman walked in. Scully looked at Mulder, whose hand had left hers and was now simply lying limply at his side.

"Hey partner." The woman smiled widely at Mulder and then nodded to Scully. She made her way across the room and kissed Mulder lightly on the lips. "Hey. Skinner says you'll be getting a gift basket from the mayor soon." Scully took a minute to look the woman over. Brunette with straight hair until it hit the bottom in a cascade of light curls, late twenties or early thirties, about 5'7'' and simply stunning. Scully cleared her throat again and said the most sensable thing that came to mind, "I'm going to ask the doctor when you can leave." She smiled at the woman and turned around, but before she even took a step the woman spoke.

"His vitals are stable and he should be out as soon as that fruit basket gets to us in about 2 hours, Dr. Scully."
Scully turned around, trying her hardest to smile and not slap this woman for taking the only thing she could do at the moment. She wasn't sure whether to be angry that this woman knew Mulder's vitals, or if she was happy that the woman cared. Mulder, sensing her discomfort, suddenly remembered his manners and sat up on the bed. "Scully this is Lilly, Lilly this is Scully." Scully stood there smiling at the woman while Lilly walked around the bed and shook Scully's hand. "I think it's best I introduce myself, thank you though Fox. I'm Agent Lillian Rensselaer, it's a pleasure to finally meet you Dr. Scully." Scully continued willing herself to smile and shake Lillian's hand. Scully suddenly realized she could call her mother, or a cab. Anything to get her out of this hospital room would work.

"There is a phone call I need to make, I'll be right back." she turned around, and rushed out the door the best she could, without running. While she was outside she walked to the nurses station and smiled at the nurse she had previously confused. "Hi, um, Agent Mulder, I'm his emergency call and should have gotten the call about his hospitalization, I wanted to know why I didn't recieve that call." the nurse smiled and asked her to wait while she took out his file. Once she had the file out Scully assured the nurse she was a doctor and was handed the file. She read through his file, double checking his health, and when she reached the emergency contact she turned pale white. No longer was there "Special Agent Dr. Dana Katherine Scully", but "Special Agent Dr. Lillian Rensselaer."
