iminlovewithaboynamedJESS - I'm glad you don't hate what I did. Hope you keep enjoying this!
Bridget4 - Hey! I'm glad you're enjoying this story! I know it's a little confusing but I hope it makes more sense to you in the later chapters.
Thena - Don't you worry! I'll make it all be good in the end (possibly, I don't really know). And it all should fit together in the next few chapters.

Jess sat on the steps of the diner with his face buried in his hands. He heard footsteps approaching and looked up hoping beyond hope that it was Rory.
It wasn't.
Lorelai took one look at him, "Oh no."
"She left," Jess said. "She said she didn't ever want to see me again and then she left."
"I'm going to get home Luke, I'll meet you there," Lorelai said started to run towards the house.
"She won't be there," Jess said.
Lorelai turned around. "What?" She asked confused.
"She said she was leaving," Jess said. "She was leaving again and this time she was leaving behind one thing she didn't mind leaving behind."
"Oh God!" Lorelai said. She ran over to Luke's truck and drove off towards the house before anyone could stop her.
***
Lorelai walked into the dark house screaming for Rory. Rushing back into Rory's room trying to see if she was still there.
No one was there.
A single note lay on her bed with one word written on it, "Sorry".
Lorelai felt her eyes fill with tears and ignoring the time on the clock she grabbed the phone in the living room and called Sookie.
"Hello?" Sookie said groggily into the phone.
"Sookie," Lorelai said crying.
"Lorelai?" Sookie asked. "What's wrong? Why are you calling at 11?"
"Rory's gone," Lorelai cried. "She's left again."
"What?" Sookie asked. "I'll be right over, don't move."
"Bring Jennifer with you," Lorelai cried hanging up the phone.
***
Sookie arrived ten minutes later with an exhausted looking Jennifer. "Mom?" Jennifer asked. "What's going on?"
"Oh Jennifer," Lorelai said softly with silent tears streaming down her face. "Rory's left again."
Jennifer started to cry. "Why?"
"Jess tried to get her to talk to him and she ended up leaving," Lorelai said.
Jennifer looked at Lorelai, "I hate Jess," she said and she ran into Rory's room slamming the door behind her.
Luke burst through the door at that moment breathless with Jess behind him. "Is she here?" he asked.
Lorelai sunk onto the couch. "No," she said. "Jennifer's back and she's in Rory's room."
Luke sat down next to Lorelai and put his arm around her.

Rory drove her car to the airport and walked to the ticket counter. "I need the next flight out of here, anywhere," she said to the only person working this late at night.
The man looked at his computer, "There's a flight leaving at three AM for San Francisco, California."
"That'll do," Rory said. "How much?"
The man named his price, she paid and he handed her the ticket. She walked down to the terminal and picked up a book from the gift shop to read while she waited.
But one thought kept going through her head.
Was she doing the right thing?

A/N- Sorry it's short! I'll write more soon! Hope you enjoyed it! R&R.
