He's mostly been thinking of Scully at work, truthfully, and of Scully trying to social engineer her way into her own house. It occurs to him as he collects her other clothes from her that they'll have to get in touch with the hospital. Her absence is going to be devastating for her career otherwise - not to mention the lives of the children she treats.
(Do they still remember him there? Are they going to be willing to accept his answers over the phone? Maybe he can have this Scully fill out the necessary paperwork for a six-month leave of absence, and he'll drive it over. Yes, yes, she's gravely ill, but you know how private she is, she's requesting no visitors. She'll be back as soon as possible.)
On their way over to the changing rooms, he spots some more casual options and decides he'll wander back over here while she's trying on what she has. "Yell when you need more to try on," he tells her, resisting the instinct to lean down and peck her mouth. "I'll be right back."
To get a cardigan, long and loose, that looks like Scully's idea of fun. A couple fitted t-shirts as well. It turns out buying her things has never gotten old for him.
