Summery: Takes place after 5.13, Say Something. What if Luke left, like he promised the town, but comes back a few later because someone called him with shocking news. AU and my be slightly OOC
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
All he asked was for time. Time to process. Time to think. Time to realize that even if he didn't fit into her "world" that maybe Christopher was wrong. Time to think that maybe Christopher was right. Time was all he needed and she pushed him. After he closed the diner for the night, Luke packed all his stuff and called Lane and Cesar. He told them he had to leave for a while but that they were to keep the diner up and running. Both asked where he was going and all Luke could say was, "where ever the road leads me." After those two phone calls, Luke Danes left Stars Hollow, CT. Luke Danes had left Stars Hollow and he had no idea where he was going and when he would be back, or if he would ever come back. All Luke knew was that Lorelai had pushed him to keep his promise to the town. And with that he left.

Lorelai woke up that morning filled with hope. Hope that Luke would forgive her. Hope the town would not hate her for hurting Luke. Hope that Chris had been hit by a bus. Hope that her mother took Lorelai's hint and doesn't try to contact her. Hope was all she had and right now she was really running low on hope. Lorelai decided that today would be the day she would go to the diner. She wouldn't pester Luke; she would get a cup of coffee and a muffin and just sit there, eat, and then leave. She decided that even if they broke up she still wanted to have her best friend and still be able to eat at Luke's. Walking through the town, she held her head high and ignored all the gossip. "Today will be a good day. Just go in, order your food, eat quickly, and leave. Everything will be fine." She kept telling herself this as she walks to the diner. However, everything wouldn't be fine; how could it. Christopher and Emily had caused Luke embarrassment and caused her and Luke to break up. Life in Stars Hollow would be different for her. As she walked into the dinner she noticed that Luke wasn't there so she asked Lane where he was. "Lorelai, he left late last night and no one knows where he is." She couldn't take it; she ran home in tears and called two people; Rory and Luke.

Now that I've worn out, I've worn out the world
I'm on my knees in fascination
Looking through the night
And the moon's never seen me before
But I'm reflecting light
"Crap" Luke said. He knew that it was Lorelai calling because this was there song and she set this song to play when ever she called. He debated whether to answer and in the end he didn't; he just wasn't ready to talk to her yet. He looked around to see where he was exactly when he saw a sign that read "Welcome to Mayberry, Washington. Population 1000." He decided to stop here.
