"Rory I'm really starting to get worried now. He should have been home ages
ago." Asks a worried Lorelai.
"I'm worried to mom but wait till morning and he isn't home or we haven't heard form him then we'll call the police. OK"
" Rory this isn't funny and I'm scared. Really scared. I love him." Lorelai suddenly bursts into tears. Rory goes up to her and hugs her telling her its all going to work itself out. Slowly She stops her tears and wipes them away and excuses herself to see the twins.
Walking in to the twins room she slides down the wall and looks at the cots that hold the babies sleeping soundly as nothing is wrong and silently cries for her lost love.
" Yes John its been 24 hours since we last saw him... Yes I have filled in the paper work. I was in there this morning. Please do some now. I've got to go call me if you hear anything." Hanging the phone up she races to the twins room and picks up Paul who is waking up form his nap and cuddles him thinking about Luke. Going into a daydream she thinks of all the stuff she and Luke did together how she always knew how to push his buttons.
"Mom. Mom . the cops have said that they have found him. He was admitted to a hospital last night with a gun shot in stomach. Don't worry they say he is fine and is begin transferred back to Stars Hollow now, thanks to your mother connections. He should be here by night fall."
"Thank you. Thank you." Holding Paul to her she cries releasing all the tension of the last day.
Several hours later Jess Rory Paul Elizabeth (Liz) and Lorelai all stood around Luke's hospital bed waiting for him to wake up. No one made a noise they all stood staring at Luke and how much he had changed in the last day. It had lost a lot of color in his face and looked to be much thinner, But yet he could still snore while he slept. Slowly he started to come round and see people standing around his room all staring at him.
" Great I guess I'm really late. Huh." Asks Luke making everyone smile. Leaving quietly with the twins Rory and Jess go unnoticed by Luke and Lorelai who continue to stare at each other making really sure the other is alright.
" I didn't know what to think when you didn't pick me up and then when you came home I really lost it."
Silent tears sleep down her face as Luke reaches out and pull her onto the bed and close to him. Sitting him self up so he is with eye level to her.
" I couldn't leave you all alone. You are my world and I never wish to leave it." Leans in and kisses her softly then passionately. Pulling away slowly he says
" And I can't leave you alone with those two kids." And kisses her again letting the world slide away and leave him with this woman. The one he finally has and just nearly lost forever.
"Mom can we take him home or does he have to stay here tonight." Asks Rory who is followed by Jess
" There is no way that I'm allowing them to keep him here to night " Standing up she goes in search of a nurse or doctor.
" Glad your back Luke. You really have no idea what you put mom through" Leans down and hands him Liz who is waking up. Looks up at her Father and smiles and reaches out to touch her father's face. Smiling down at his precious daughter
" Yes daddy is never going to leave you never. That's a promise OK sweetie" Gently kisses her on her head as Lorelai walks in with a nurse and Doctor in tow not looking impressed. " Ah Mr Danes your wife her wishes that you be released to go home. Your wound seems to be fine no infection so I suppose you may go home with some antibiotics. OK"
" Yes doc." As the doctor and nurse leave Luke turns to Lorelai " Now what did you do to them"
" Nothing just mentioned that Emily Gilmore might reconsider her donations to this hospital."
" You didn't did you mom" Smiling broadly gives her away. " Jess Rory get his gear packed up and I will go fill out the paper work. Um before I leave where did you go before you were meant to pick me up."
" I went to pick up some flowers" He replies rather sheepishly She quickly covers the distance between them and kisses him. Then walks of to fill in the paper work.
10 minutes later they all walk out of the hospital and hop into the family car. Hoping never to repeat of the last few days.
Epilogue 10 years later. "Mom. Why can't I go to school like Paul and Liz. " Bending down in front of her 3 year old daughter
Lorelai answers " Honey you can go to big school in a few more years but for now you get stuck with me"
"Ok mommy. When are Rory and Dean coming back I miss Dean he always did fun things with me."
" Did he. Well next time I speak to Rory you can ask her, but for now lets go annoy daddy at work."
"Ok mommy" Grabbing her coat and putting Amy's coat on they walk out of the house to go annoy Luke. Leaving the house silent till there return of the family. Putting her hand into her coat pocket Lorelai pulls out a picture. Not remembering putting it there she looks closely at it and sees Luke Rory Jess Dean Paul Liz Amy and herself Pulling goofy faces at the photographer who was meant to take a family portrait not a clown shot. Laughing she puts it back in her pocket thinking this is the way it's meant to be. How could things be better than this. Takes her daughter's hand and continues to walk.
