Rory woke up the next morning by beeping sounds. She gently crawled off the bed and walked over to her mom's.

-"Good morning mom." Rory said, kissing her. "We know you can make it through this. Just pull through for us. I don't know what I would do if I lost you."

Luke slowly opened his eyes.

-"Your my best friend. And I love you so much! Your everything to me. You have great friends and family who love you so much." Rory started to cry. "Just please wake up." Rory felt something in the cover. She gently uncovered her mom a little bit and saw Luke's jacket in her hand.

-"Its the strangest thing I've ever seen." Said the doctor, entering the room.

-"What?" Rory asked.

-"She wont let go of it." The doctor stated, simply.

Rory smiled as tears ran down her face. Shes holding on... Rory thought.

-"How are you doing today, Luke?" The doctor asked.

-"I'm doing pretty good."

-"That's great. I have good news for you. You can go home today."

-"I can?"

-"Yes. But here are some rules I need to follow. Avoid stairs as much as possible. Eat lots of healthy food and drink plenty of water. It would be best if someone was to look after you."

-"I'll do it." Rory piped in.

-"Good. Stay off your foot as much as possible."

-"But I have a Diner to run!" Luke said.

-"I'm sorry Luke but you still need your rest."


Rory called Dean later that day after the doctor told Luke he could leave. Dean came and picked them up. They packed Luke's stuff out of his apartment and brought it to the Crap Shack. Dean moved Lorelai's bed downstairs in the living room so Luke wouldn't have to go upstairs. Rory had made a schedule on how things were going to work. She was going to go to school and get her work for the week and work on it as much as she could. Dean let Rory borrow his car for as long as she needed it. Rory and Luke drove up the hospital everyday at 11 o'clock. They got up at 9, took showers and did their routine stuff to get ready. Since Rory couldn't cook Sookie came every day day and cooked and ate breakfast with them. Then they would drive up to the hospital and staying until 10 o'clock. Dean came right after school, giving Rory a break and a chance to do her pile of homework that had barley been touched. Rory thinking that Cesar couldn't take care of the Diner on his own hired a fellow towns person to help. Luke's injuries were healing very fast. The bond between Rory and Luke grew stronger everyday.

It has been over a month since the accident. The doctors were loosing hope. And Rory aware of the newly found news barley spoke at all anymore. Luke, now at the hospital by himself for the first time. He had told Rory he wanted to go back and see her. Rory, not willing to hand over the keys at first worried about Luke, but finally did.

-"I know you can make it through this. It's all my fault your here. I'm so afraid that I am going to loose you. I don't know what I would do if you...died." Luke said, crying. "My life would be nothing without you in it. You don't deserve this! You have a smart and beautiful daughter who's going to go to an Ivy league school. You raised her all by yourself. Your the manager of the hotel where Rory grew up. You have great friends who love you and would be lost without you. Your the most amazing women I have ever met. Just please make it through this!" Luke was crying very hard, praying everything would be ok.
