After experiencing heart break this year, I think I have an idea of what Rory is feeling.

Disclaimer: Still watching Ebay very intently. Oh well, I don't own Gilmore Girls, and I don't make any money doing this so please don't sue me. I can give you Vanilla Chai. It's really good. I have fallen in love with the stuff!

We switch back to Stars Hollow where Lane is staring out the window. It's Monday now, and she is waiting for David to call. She couldn't help but think about what Rory had said, and how it was only natural she loved Dave. She sighed deeply, and yet a little nervous. What did it mean being in love with someone? Would that mean Dave would expect more from her now? The phone rang.

Lane picked up the phone, hoping partially that it was Rory.

"Hello, is Lane there?"

It was Dave. Oh well, so much for a dream.

"Hey Dave, it's me."

"Hi Lane. I wrote a new song for the band today."

"Really? Can I hear it?"

"Sure, give me a moment alright?"

"Okay," Lane replied reluctantly. What was she doing? The whole point of this conversation was to address what happened on Saturday. Did he even remember what happened on Saturday? Then she heard it start faintly, a guitar somewhere in the background. It started off slowly, then it seemed to get a little faster as it went on into the lyrics.

"(sung) I can't seem to take it. Whenever I"d reach for you, you'd pull away. Pull away. Sometimes I feel embarrassed, when you look at me that way. Me that way."

Lane couldn't help but melt. He had written the song for her, and based on the first time they had met. Lane didn't know how to react when she first met Dave. She was so shy, and now she was confessing her soul to him sometimes. Telling him things that she had only told Rory before. Dave went into the chorus now and it was clear as day that he was truly in love with her.

"Surrounded by the black clouds, of mis-er-ry. All I see is you, gui-ding me-."

Dave sang his heart to her, the beautiful girl on the other end of the phone. He wanted to tell her in the only way he knew how that he was serious when he said he loved her. It had taken her by surprise, as it did him, but it just felt right. At the moment, he only saw Lane. The way her glasses rested on her face, and how she laughed at the smallest things. When he was done singing, he listened for a response. He didn't hear anything. Perhaps she had hung up, or just chosen not to speak. Maybe she was mortified that she loved someone. Did she think he was corny?

"Dave, that was wonderful."

That's it, he must have died. Somewhere between verse 2 and the bridge, his heart must have stopped beating. No, he lost oxygen going to his brain because he held a note to long and then he passed out. When he hit the ground he knocked his head and then he died. Dave though to himself for a moment, and then realized that if this was heaven, where was Lane? Oh no! He had gone to the other place.

"Dave are you there? Did you hear me?"

No he still heard the angel's sweet voice so perhaps he didn't die. He checked for a pulse, good there was still one there after all.

"Yeah, Lane I'm still here. You liked it?"

"Yes Dave, I liked it. When are you going to perform it for the guys?"

They both laughed. She always knew what to say. Lane smiled on the other end.

"I have to go Dave, but IM me later, okay?"

"Alright, goodbye Lane. I love you."

"You're lucky momma Kim is around right now. I love you too."

His heart skipped a beat and he hung up the phone. He wasn't dead after all. Who knew heaven existed on Earth?
