Chapter 2- breaking up
He came around that day. Knocked on the door and asked to speak with me. He didn't beat around but came right out and said what he'd come to say.
"Rory I can't do this any more. We have grown apart and I have found someone else. I want to break up."
That was all he said to break my heart. I had given him everything. I loved him and he went and did this to me. I watched him leave for the last time. I had held the tears up till then but as he walked away from me I couldn't do a thing to stop them from sliding down. Closing the front door gave little comfort from all the wondering glances I knew that would be coming my way. Grabbing the nearest coat, I shrugged and pulled it on and walked down to the bridge and lay down on there and watched that same sky as the night before.
I lay there for hours till footsteps vibrated the bridge wood. Opening my puffy eyes was a black figure blocking the sun from my eyes. Lowering himself down next to me sat Jess. Someone who could understand that silence wasn't an invitation to make conversation but time for your thoughts. He never said a word, gave me a sympathetic look and then sat in silence next to me. We never uttered a word, just sat there staring at the water.
That was four months ago. Till now I have held onto a tiny bit of hope that had somehow survived, but that died when I saw Dean and Angie (I found out her name from rumours.) snuggled together as they walked through the main street of Stars Hollow. He looked happy. Happier than he looked when he was with me. Seeing them hand in hand, I really realised that it was over between us. Walking back home I'm determined to rid all of his stuff from my life. Stopping At Barbette's house, I stare at the car. The car Dean gave to me as a present.
Racing inside I finally locates the keys in my room. Juggling the cool metal in my hands I walk toward the car. Sliding into the seat the rest comes naturally. Pulling out of the driveway a figure appears, hands held upright. Running around to the passenger door open hops into the passenger seat.
"Rory. Don't do anything stupid. Please," Begs Jess.
"I'm not.".
Pulling out into the street my hands glide the car towards Deans house. Coming to a t intersection I go to put the breaks on but they won't move. Slamming my foot down it still wont go down. Looking quickly across to Jess a horror stricken feature is plastered on his face. Looking back to the oncoming traffic I see a horse float trying to move away from us. Turning back to Jess I whisper
"I'm sorry, and Dean will never know what I was about to tell him on our last date but .." she is cut of as the two vehicles meld together.

Thanks for reviewing. I'm going to go back to reveal what Rory was about to tell Dean but never did.
