A/N: I do not own the song Ghost Town train by Tim McGraw. Sorry this one is a little confusing!


G is for Ghost Town Train

Two weeks later...

Vaughn is standing in the middle of the city. For some strange reason, it's completely empty. No people, no cars, but all the buildings are still there.

All of a sudden a single car pulls up beside him. The window rolls down and a familiar face appears. He would recognize the rusty brown hair and pure blue eyes anywhere.

Her eyebrows raise and she points to the seat beside her. It's obvious that she wants him to get in with her.

Vaughn shakes his head though. His heart was broken by a red head already and he couldn't deal with more pain.

Her eyes fill up with tears and he turns around as they begin to spill down her face. He begins to walk away, and then he hears the rev of an engine. Vaughn turns around to see her speeding out of the city.

His heart begins to drop as he sees her speeding away. Suddenly a voice seems to echo around him. It sounds like his own, but he knows he's not speaking.

"If I could, I would rewind the time she cried and I just turned around and walked away."

Vaughn pauses. That had been exactly what he was thinking! His thoughts were being voiced aloud.

"Wish there was a switch that I could hit and then she'd love me like she loved me yesterday."

Wait a second. Chelsea was in love with him? How the heck did he know that?

"What I'd give to hold her in my arms, steal her heart and wipe her tears right off her face. But that's just plain foolishness; the truth is life just doesn't ever work that way."

Did he really want to do that? Did he want Chelsea to be with him?

"She's gone. Oh no. Oh no. My baby's gone. Oh no. Oh no."

When did Chelsea become his? Why is it that Vaughn felt he had some right to her?

"The morning sun steals the stars, she shines her eyes and mine are laughing once again. Her long hair flowing, I'm there holding her and hoping that this feeling never ends. But it's just a dream inside my head, gone with the wind just like a child's red balloon. Floating up into the sky so high and disappearing out into the wide old blue."

No matter how confused he was, that first part had sounded really good. Being able to hold Chelsea forever. Though he knew his life was more like the balloon.

"She's gone. Oh no. Oh no. My baby's gone. Oh no. Oh no."

Vaughn sighs and looks out into the direction she left in. What would have happened if he'd made a different choice?

"She's a ghost town train, a tear drop in the rain, oh no. She's two tail lights disappearing in the night, oh no. Oh no, she's gone."

He sinks down to the ground; in the middle of the road. At this point he no longer cares if he's run over by a surprise car.

"She a ghost town train, a teardrop in the rain, oh. My baby's gone. She's two tail lights disappearing in the night, oh, now I'm all alone."

He kicks at the ground and whispers softly to himself. "If I could I would rewind the time."

Suddenly he hears a dull ringing echoing around him. At first he can't figure out what the sound is; then it hits him.

Vaughn sits up and nearly bangs his head on the top of his cabin. He was actually on a boat making his way back to the Island again. He has just been taking a nap and the alarm was waking him up.

It had all been a dream. Maybe he could do something about it now. He could rewind the time, so to speak.

He had a chance.
