Chapter 16- some things just happen and we have to deal
At the Hospital
"Chris, Do you want a drink?" staring at her husband
"Yes." Returning back to his staring at Sherry, who still hadn't woken up yet, through a glass wall.
Returning back Chris till hadn't moved. Walking up to him placed a cup full of warm coffee into his hands. Sitting down next to him they sat in silence.
"I never wanted this to happen." Chris said breaking the silence
"I thought the kid was mine then it wasn't now it is mine. I don't know what to believe any more. But I do know that I'm never leaving you." Taking Lorelai hands squeezed it reassuringly. "Do you know what she said just before she passed out, It should have been our child."
"Chris you cant do this. What has happened cant not be changed. What happens from now on only we can determine."
"But they could die."
"I know. It could me in there or even you but its Sherry and nothing can change that we just have to readjust. All of us."
"Even that morbid daughter of ours." Said Chris laughing
"Yes. How about if we go home get some sleep and come back tomorrow."
"Ok." Chris said not too confidently
"They will ring if anything goes wrong." Lorelai said trying to reassure him
Getting up they started to walk down the corridor to the nearest elevator. Stepping out of the way of a stampede of doctors and nurses who were rushing back down the way from which they had come. Their tired minds weren't able to comprehend that the only room down that way was Sherry's.
(Gilmore House)
"I wish they would ring."
"Calm down Rory. They will ring." Dean said trying to get his girlfriend to calm down.
Suddenly walking through the front door walked her mother and father.
" you sure Dean." Rory said turning to face her parents hands on hips.
"hi honey." They said walking past her
"Rory don't say a thing let them sleep. They look tired."
"But I wanted to go." Whined Rory flopping down on the couch next to Dean
"I know you did but aren't I good enough. I will stay the night too." Running hid fingers through her head tyring to slam her down and as a way to be near her.
"But my parents are home." Said Rory liking the idea but yet scared of what her parents would say if they found Dean in her room.
"Sneak in through your window and sneak out again. Simple."
"Ok." Twisting to see him she kissed him.
(Upstairs in the Gilmore house)
The two fell immediately asleep both with their own worries and thoughts. They would never have know if it was night or day they way they were sleeping,. They would never have know if Dean had left or not, nor did they hear the phone ringing with the hospital on the other end.
(Downstairs) Dean and Rory who were snuggled together never heard the phone ring.
(Hospital)
"We cant get onto them."
"Well we have to do this now or lose them both. Go tell theatre we are coming down,"
"Yes doctor."
" Please hang on." The doctor said fearing the worst but not wanting it to happen.
