Chapter 10

RORY POV

I was sitting in my office working, when my cell phone rang. "This is Rory." I said, answering it.

"Ror." It was Mom.

"Hey Mom, I'm about to go into a meeting can I call you back?"

"Rory, it's Grandpa." She said.

"What happened?"

"Another heart attack. He wants to see you." She said.

I sat back in my chair. "Where is he?"

"Hartford Memorial."

"I'll be there as soon as I can." I told her and hung up the phone. I grabbed my files and headed off to my meeting.

An hour later, I come out of the meeting and when I get to my office I am greeted by my assistant. She hands me a stack of messages. I quickly flip through the messages and one message in particular catches my attention. I tell my assistant that I am leaving for the rest of the day and that if she needs me for anything that she can reach me on my cell. I grabbed my stuff as quickly as I could and headed to my car. As soon as I got in my car, I called Finn. "Hello?" He answered.

"Finn, I need a favor." I said.

"Sure, any thing."

"Do you happen to be in New York today?" I asked.

"Yeah, had to come up for a meeting. You okay?"

"I don't know. I'm having to head to Hartford. Grandpa had a heart attack. When you get done, can you go by my apartment and grab me some clothes. I'm leaving straight from work." I told him.

"Sure thing. Is he going to be okay?" Finn asked me.

"I don't know, Finn. All I know is that Mom said that he's asking for me."

LORELAI POV

I had just hung up the phone with Rory. I called to tell her that Dad had a heart attack. The doctors weren't really saying anything. Luke and I were sitting in the waiting room. Mom was in the back with Dad. "Call him." Luke said.

I looked at him. "Who?"

"Christopher. You know you want to."

"Luke…"

"Lor, its different now. He has Laura and the four of us get along now. Call him." Luke said, and I nodded.

I walked outside to call Chris, when I saw Logan walking toward the entrance of the hospital. "Hi Lorelai." He said.

"Logan." I said, holding my phone in my hand.

"How's Rory?" He asked me.

"Logan, I'm not doing this. I will not talk to you about Rory. Now, I have family stuff that I am dealing with so…goodbye." I said, and walked away from him. I dialed Chris's number and waited for him to answer.

"Hey Lor." Chris said when he answered.

"Hi, Chris. I'm calling to let you know that Dad's in the hospital." I said.

"Everything okay?"

"Heart attack." I told Chris.

"I'm on the way." He said and hung up before I could say anything else.

When I hung up the phone with Chris, I walked back into the hospital to find Mom sitting with Luke. "Mom…" I said, approaching them.

"Lorelai. Is Rory on her way?" She said.

"I called her. She had a meeting and then she said that she'd be on her way." I told mom. "How is he?"

"He's resting. The doctor said that he needed rest right now." Mom told us.

RORY POV

When I got off the interstate in Hartford, I headed over to the hospital. I parked my car and walked toward the entrance. The last time that I had been in this hospital was when they had called me about Mitchum. That was a long day. As I approached the entrance I noticed Logan walking out. "Hi." I said.

"Hi." He looked surprised to see me. "I saw your Mom." He said.

"Yeah. Grandpa's here." I told him.

"Oh. I'm sorry. I hope that he's okay." Logan said.

"Thanks."

"I signed the papers." Logan said.

"Really?" He nodded.

"Yeah, I sent them over to your Dad's office this morning." Logan said.

"Thank you." I said.

"Your welcome. I never meant to hurt you Rory."

"I know, Logan. And even though things didn't work out…I still loved you." I said.

"I love you too, Ror." He said. He started to walk past me. "I'll see you around."

When I walked into the hospital, I walked up to the information desk. "Hi." The receptionist said.

"Hi, I'm looking for my grandfather… Richard Gilmore." I said.

"Of course Mrs. Huntzberger." She said. She started typing on her computer and then turned to me. "He's on the third floor, room 3112."

"Thank you." I said. I turned and headed down the hall toward the elevators. I got on the elevator and pressed the button for the floor that I needed. When I stepped off the elevator, I made my way to the waiting room to see if anybody was there before I headed to Grandpa's room. When I got to the waiting room, I found Luke and Dad. "Dad." I said.

"Hey kid." He said.

"Mom call you?" I asked, and he nodded. "I ran into Logan when I came in." I said. Dad and Luke both stared at me.

"Yeah, he sent the papers over this morning. He had a letter attached to it."

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah. I read it. It basically said, that he's sorry for always hurting you and that a part of him always knew that he could never completely give up his playboy ways." Dad said.

"He's an idiot." Luke said.

"Right on." I heard behind me.

I turned around and it was Mom. I hugged her. "How is he?" I asked. Grandma was right behind her.

"He's resting. It looks like he's gonna be fine." Mom said.

"Rory, dear, why don't you go in and see him." Grandma said. I nodded. I smiled at Mom and she nodded. I took this as the four of them needed to talk about something that they didn't want me to hear. I waited until I was out of sight and hid behind the wall. I needed to know.

"What did the letter really say, Chris?" I heard Mom ask.

"He put in the letter that there weren't enough ways that he could say how sorry he was for hurting her…and that included the future hurt." Dad said. Future hurt?

"What does that mean?" Grandma asked.

"He got a girl from London pregnant." Dad said.

"Are you kidding me? He knocked up Bobbie?" Mom asked, kind of loudly and mad.

"Yeah. There was something about he was thinking about moving to London for good." My dad said.

"Good riddance." Luke said.

I couldn't handle anymore so I headed down the hall to Grandpa's room to visit with him. How could Logan be so stupid? He always made sure that I was up to date on my birth control because he didn't think that he could handle kids…at least until his Mom started pushing us about an heir.

I sat with Grandpa for a while until he fell asleep. It was hard to see him like that. After a while I headed back out to the waiting room where I only found Grandma and Finn. Grandma noticed me. "Everyone headed home sweetie. If anything changes I'll call you." Grandma said.

"Thanks Grandma. I'll be in town for a couple of days. I'm staying with Finn." I told her.

When I left the hospital, I headed over to Finn's apartment. I couldn't believe what was happening. Everything was changing. I wasn't sure about anything anymore. Logan and I were getting divorced. Bobbie was pregnant with Logan's kid. I was living in New York away from my family. The only constant that I had was Finn.

A/N: Hey guys. I know that it's been a few days and I'm sorry for that. My youngest is sick with and Upper Respiratory Infection and I have a sinus infection. Hopefully I'll get my momentum back now. Enjoy!
