I own nothing but the plot....
CHAPTER FIVE: A DIFFERENT EMILY
An hour had passed and Luke was sitting in the waiting room with a shaken Rory who was slowly sipping the nasty hospital coffee.
"Mr. Dane's you can go back..." the nurse called to him.
"Rory, you go ahead-" She cut him off.
"No, Luke. You go. She isn't awake yet anyway so just go and if she does wake tell her that I am outside waiting with horrible coffee and tell her I love her," she ranted.
Normally Luke would have commented on her rant but merely nodded and walked with the nurse to her room in the ER.
"Okay, she isn't awake but just sit there with her, the muttering stopped so either she's asleep or just got tired of talking but our reports state she hasn't gone further into the coma, well it isn't technically a coma but we're still trying to figure out what it is, so go on."
Luke stepped in and saw Lorelai lying there, hooked up to all kinds of wires, her eyes closed and her face pale. He walked over and sat on the bed beside her and took her small pale hand in his and kissed gently. "I love you Lorelai. I swear, I didn't kiss her she jumped at me, I'd never hurt you," he whispered and a tear fell from his face onto Lorelai's hand. Rory is outside, I will send her in next but please, Lorelai, I love you."
He got up and went outside and found Rory sitting there crying softly. He had explained to her what happened in that long hour it took to see her and she understood, so maybe Lorelai would too? "You can go back," he said. "Can I borrow your cell phone to call Sookie?"
Rory nodded. "Here. Can you call Grandma too? I really don't feel like talking to her. She is number 5 on speed dial and Sookie is Number 2." He nodded and took the phone from her.
He walked outside and found the rain had cleared up but it was drizzling and very windy. He sat down and thought, ~ I better call Mrs. Gilmore first, wait, she lives in Hartford and here's the address so maybe Ill go see her in person. ~ He looked in Rory's cell phone address book and found it and drove to The Gilmore house.
10 MINUTES LATER
Luke stepped onto the Gilmore's front lawn. He slowly raised his finger to the doorbell and pressed it in.
"Yes?" a foreign woman, said as she opened the door.
"Can I see Emily Gilmore?"
"Who are you?" she asked in a deep British accent.
"Luke... Danes, it's about her daughter."
The maid beckoned him in and he stepped into the very large house. Emily was sitting on the back porch under a sunroof. "Mrs. Gilmore, this man would like to speak to you." She said and then left.
"You're the Diner Man." She stated.
"Luke, yes I own a Diner but I came here about Lorelai not for a leisure call." He said gruffly anger rising inside him.
"What about Lorelai?" she asked simply.
"She had a panic attack last night and was taken to the Hartford hospital and is in some sort of... coma spell thing, not a real coma but Rory is with her and I admit this is my fault she had one, she saw my ex wife who is a lunatic kiss me and she ran and I don't know but Miss Patty found her and called the hospital..." he rambled for the first time in his life.
"Wait, why would that bother her?" Emily asked while the color was draining form her face.
"Um, we started going out yesterday, she didn't have time to tell you or I'm sure she would have, honestly."
"Oh, my. Richard is at work but, I have no car,"
"I'll drive you, come on." He said and Emily hurried to get her stuff and they drove to the hospital.
