*****************************
"Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away..." Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive.." Luke had turned on the radio and closed his eyes to think. He suddenly opened them as he heard the lyrics of 'One Sweet Day' come over the radio. "Oh my god. What was I thinking?" Luke wanted to hit himself. Lorelai had admitted that she liked him too.. she just needed the time to think. He could wait. He had waited, for years. He could wait a couple more days, a couple more weeks. He was so angry with himself. He loved her.... Now he had to tell her that he could be patient. Luke grabbed his jacket and ran out, hoping it wasn't too late to tell her... ****************************** The paramedics cautiously walked up to the smashed vehicle. "Jesus," breathed one of the paramedics, shaking his head. "This looks really bad." His partner sighed as she looked at the crushed vehicle. "I hate seeing things like this," she answered. He nodded. They went to go get a stretcher. ****************************** "LORELAI!" Luke called out as he pounded on the door. The lights were out in the house but he could hear the phone ringing. "LORELAI!" There were no signs of life from inside the house. ".. leave a message.." Luke strained to hear what was being said on the answering machine. "... it's Rory..." She obviously wasn't home if she didn't pick up when Rory called. He ran down the porch steps to the driveway. The jeep was gone. ****************************** At 3 AM..... Dr. Johnson shook his head sadly as he peered through the window at the new patient that had just arrived that night. It didn't look to good for her. "That bad, huh?" Dr. Johnson turned around to see Dr. Dobely standing next to him. "It doesn't look good." "What happened?" She asked peering through the glass. "Eighteen wheeler totally crushed the car while turning a bad curve.. paramedics said the car was completely totaled... we could barely make out her features when they brought her in...," He sighed. "Jesus," Dr. Dobely commented. "Two broken legs, a couple shattered bones... major blood loss, bruises covering almost every inch of her body...," Dr. Johnson trailed off and shoved his hands in his white coat pockets. "And on top of that, major head trauma.. she's in a coma. I hope she makes it through." "Did you get in contact with the family yet?" "Nope, no answers at the house..." Dr. Johnson looked deeply troubled. "Her cellphone was totally crushed too. All we got was her half melted driver's license and a napkin about some diner. Police are supposed to go check it out tomorrow." Dr. Dobely patted him softly on the shoulder. "She'll be okay.. you better get some sleep." She knew how how emotional he got when he saw patients like his. His own wife had been killed in a drunk driving accident a few years past. Dr. Johnson nodded and followed her out of the ICU. **************************** Luke shivered as he sat on the porch steps. It was almost 3:30 AM and no sign of Lorelai yet. He had run back to the diner to call her on her cell, but there was no answer. Just the monotonous strains of 'This phone number has been disconnected...' What did that mean? Where had she suddenly disappeared to? He thought that maybe she had gone to her parents' house at first, but that seemed unlikely. It was too late to bother Sookie... So he sat there, nodding off and waiting for her to come home to him. **************************** The next morning... Luke opened his eyes as the bright sunlight hit him in the face. His body ached and he was freezing. He shivered and got up stiffly. Stretching, he looked to the driveway. No jeep yet. "Where the hell is she?" he growled. Meantime, he decided to run to the diner to change clothes. He would come back and wait. He could wait forever. **************************** Officer Bentley drove up to the little house and got out of the car. Star's Hollow was a cute town and he had enjoyed watching the sunrise as he drove in. However, this new job he had of finding the relatives of Lorelai Gilmore was hardly pleasing. He knocked on the door and braced himself. He hated telling people bad news, but it was part of the job. No answer. He peeked through the window. It was completely dark inside. There were no sounds of feet pattering down the stairs. He rapped on the door, louder this time. "Hello?" He called out. There was no one home. He shook his head sadly. He'd gone to see the woman this morning and she didn't look like the type to be alone. 'Sad when people live alone,' he thought. He walked down the porch steps back to his car. 'Time to check out the diner,' He thought. **************************** Luke ran downstairs after changing and was about to run out the door when he was hit with a crowd of customers. Groaning, he skid to a stop and opened the door for them. "Good, you're here early!" Taylor said as he walked in. "First time, I think." Luke rolled his eyes, wishing that they would all go away. "I'm always here early," Luke grumbled. He had wanted to be there when she got home. Where would she go? His mind was screaming questions and no answers were coming. "Oh, good morning, Luke. You looks chipper this morning," Patty smiled at him. "And unbelievely irresist-..." Luke cut her off. "Hi, Patty." The woman smiled at him as she wanted to eat him up in one bite. It made him uncomfortable, but he was used to it. "What can I get you?" "Hm.. coffee and toast would be nice," Patty answered. "Coming right up," Luke scribbled the order on a pad and moved on to take a couple other orders. "What do you want, Kirk?" "Pancakes with... butter.. and syrup....," Kirk said slowly. "Okay, you keep deciding and I'll bring it out," Luke cut him off and started towards the kitchen. 'Where the hell is Caeser?' He wondered, angry with his chef for being late on a day like this. A couple minutes later, he came out balancing four plates on his arms. Luke was startled by a policeman who entered the diner. It wasn't a Stars Hollow policeman. He wore a different color uniform. Everyone looked up at the man. "Uh...," The policeman said uncomfortably. "I'm looking for someone who knows a Lorelai Gilmore?" Everyone looked to Luke. "What happened to her??" Luke said, breathing heavily. The officer hung his head. "I'm sorry.. she was in a car accident last night..." Luke dropped the plates on the ground. They shattered to a million pieces, along with his heart. "No...," He breathed. Luke brought his hands up to his face. "How bad is it?" He asked through his hands. "It doesn't look good...," The officer said quietly. "There was a big truck....." "Take me to her," Luke said, struggling not to let anyone see his tears. 'No.. not yet....you can't die yet..' **************************** Through his tears, Luke stared at Lorelai and reached for her hand. He could barely see her face through all the tubes. He wanted to hit someone, something... and the only thing available was himself. He wanted to punch himself for gettin her upset.. and for taking that car ride.. for getting in front of the eighteen wheeler that had hurt her..... If only, if only... 'Wake up,' He willed her. "Wake up, I love you." He had been afraid of rejection.. but now wasn't hte time to be afraid, was it? She didn't respond. "I love you, damnit," He said a little more forcefully. "Wake up." She didn't stir. He softly brushed her brown hair from her forehead. The scars and bruises looked so painful.. he so badly wanted to take the pain for her. And what was killing him was the fact that she was so goddamn quiet. She was never quiet.... She was bubbly and bouncy and outgoing.. and that's why he loved her.. He sat there quietly, tears falling down his face.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel...
- Garth Brooks **************************** Sookie tried to control herself as Patty told her the news. "You're kidding me right?" she asked softly. "No, I'm not," Patty said quietly. "We called the hospital, and it doesn't look good. She's in a coma..." Sookie wiped her tears away with a napkin. "She's too young..." Patty shook her head. "She is..." "Is anyone down there?" Sookie asked as she grabbed a napkin. "Luke," Patty answered. "And he's in a lot of pain.. we thought it'd be best if we let him have time alone with her for a while.. and later we'll go see her." Sookie nodded. "Did you call Rory yet?" Patty sighed. "That's what I came here for.. to tell you and to ask if you could call Rory... none of us have her number." Sookie hung her head. "That's not going to be easy.. and her parents.. we have to call them too." Patty nodded and put her hand on top of Sookie's. "It'll be okay.. I think it will.. Luke is there with her.." Sookie took a big gulp of air and let it out slowly. "I hope so," she said shaking her head. **************************** Emily Gilmore rushed into the ICU and looked around rapidly. She spotted a nurse and ran up to her. "I need to find Lorelai Gilmore!" She said, out of breath. The nurse slowly walked over to the nurse's station. "Relation?" "I'm her mother, damnit!" Emily yelled in anger. "I need to see my daughter!" The nurse nodded and said, "Room 14." Emily ran over, but was stopped short by the scene inside the glass encased room. There was Luke, the diner man from what she remembered.. he was asleep, his head on the bed next to hers, and his hand firmly grasping hers... Emily swallowed and decided to let the scene before her continue. She quietly left the ICU. ***************************** A/N: AHHHH your reviews made me wanna continue with this.. =) So continuing reviewing and I'll keep writing .. ur reviews are my motivation =) I like criticism too hehe Thanks for your support -Ggirl
