It was the afternoon, and Scully had just calmed down from the morning. She was patiently waiting for news about Mulder, while sitting on one of the chairs outside of Mulder's room.
Skinner had sat down next to her, occasionally glancing in her direction to make sure she was okay.
"Skinner, I don't understand. Why wouldn't they let me see Mulder? I know that sometimes it's necessary, but the haven't given me a reason. I just need a reason why I can't see him." Scully asked, knowing that he didn't have an answer. She just needed to talk to someone.
"I don't know, Dana. You know I don't have a clear answer. I wish I did, for your sake, but I don't."
Scully glanced back at him, tears in her eyes. "Skinner, I'm sorry. I shouldn't be asking you questions I know you don't have any answers for. I'm just a mess. A grieving mess."
"Scully, you don't have to apologize. I know that you're going through a hard time right now, and if there's anything I can help you with, I'm here, and I'm willing to talk about it." Skinner replied, looking her in the eyes.
He felt bad for her, and hoped to get some answers about Mulder in the next hour or two.
"Thank you, Skinner. Really. Thank you."

Hello X-Philes! 😘. I'm sorry this chapter isn't as long, I hoped it would be longer but I had so much work to do the past few days and I couldn't work on it until now. The next chapter should be at least the same length as the first, if not longer. Scully will also find out some things about Mulder's condition in the next chapter! Stay tuned😄😊💕💘 (Feb. 3rd 2018)
