Right, I just figured out how to get onto Scott's laptop and he's finally deep enough in sleep that he won't wake up to find me gone. God Alison, he told me not to leave him alone while he slept...it was so much like me after Her that I almost started to cry. Just mentally, this has taken alot out of him, I'd be really scared if I didn't know how strong my brother is. I just hope he's strong enough to handle this. Jean seems to be handling it just fine from what I've seen on the journals, and I don't know, that bugs me...ALOT! If Scott will let me leave in the morning, I'd really love to talk to you about what we're going to do next...he's just so broken, it really scares me....

Sorry the bed's a bit empty but Scott needed me here with him tonight. I know your not going to get this untill tomorrow but still...I know I don't like to sleep in an empty bed without knowing why. And later, I'll make up for this, and the next few days and nights I'm sure Scott will need me, I swear. I know you understand.
Love you,
Alex

He'll be okay, Alex. The important thing is, he won't have to handle this alone. And if Scott won't let you leave in the morning, we'll just work around that. I've gone over team related stuff and although usually we try to keep him from burying himself in work, well... right now, it might not be a bad idea, for a few days. It'll help him get on something like an even keel and hey - it'll make it all the easier for us to keep an eye on him. He's officially off duty so no going anywhere for him in this condition, too, just so you know. And remember what we talked about earlier as well. That still stands, all of it.
I'll swing by his room (I'm assuming you're there right now) in a bit - I think I saw Doug parked by the door at one point when I walked by, so I'm thinking we'll have reinforcements there. Grab him if you see him and talk to him about it?

I wondered where you'd gone. Don't worry, love, I'm all right. Let me know if you need anything.
Love you too,
Lorna
