Left Behind by PandorasHollow

Spoilers: I got the idea after watching 506 - 'Norman Mailer, I'm pregnant'
Disclaimer: Don't owe one of the characters mentioned in this story. They're all ASP's.
Songs are by Jeff Buckley...Last Goodbye and by Aqualung...Left Behind. I don't own one of those songs either.
AN: The story is told from different POV's. I couldn't think of a title for this fic, so I used Left Behind, 'cause that song was one of the things that inspired me to write this story. I'll add the lyrics at the bottom of this page.

Please RR :)

This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it's over
Just hear this and then I'll go
You gave me more to live for
More than you'll ever know

This is our last embrace
Must I dream and always see your face
Why can't we overcome this wall
Well, maybe it's just because I didn't know you at all

Thursday 4 am – Luke's POV

I look at the two bags in my hands and still can't believe what I'm about to do. I'm leaving the town that has been my home since my birth. It's so surreal but I've made up my mind. I need to leave. I need to distance myself from the pain, to distance myself from her. The only option is to leave this place.
I can't stand it to walk through a town where everything reminds me of her. Where every person makes sure I don't forget her. I know they don't do it intentionally but still I can see it in their looks. They pity me, they feel sorry for me and that drives me crazy.
My apartment that was usually a shelter from the world outside was now the place that caused me the worst pain. She was in every corner of it. The whole apartment is filled with memories and thoughts of her.
The sheets of the now too big bed still smell like her even after washing them. I can see her sitting on that particular chair in my kitchen, in my grey shirt that she loved so much with a cup of coffee in her hands. She'd smile, laugh and flirt with me. The memories are too intense and sometimes my mind plays tricks on me. I'd think that she was standing in front of me and then I'd reach out to her but all I grasp is cold air. I often need to remind myself that nothing of this was real anymore. She won't ever sit on that chair again and she won't ever climb into the bed, snuggle close to me and press her cold feet against my legs. No kisses, touches, smiles and embraces.
None of that will ever happen again. That's why I have to leave. I have to leave Stars Hollow. I can't live in the past but need to focus on my future. A future without her. Ten days ago that would have sounded absurd but ten days ago I was in a relationship with Lorelai. Now that's over. Everything is over.

Left Behind by Aqualung

Open the curtain,
Let some light in,
I feel so grey,
The world got smashed to pieces,
And put back together
The wrong way.

Why you leaving me now?
There must be some doubt in your mind,
Can't you open your heart?
Don't want to be left behind.

Open the window,
Let some air in,
I feel so old
There - Where we were happy,
Long ago
Yesterday

Why you leaving me now?
There must be some doubt in your mind,
Can't you open your heart?
Don't want to be left behind.

You open your mouth and I know
What you're going to say.

Open the window,
Let some air in,
I feel so grey.

Why you leaving me now?
There must be some doubt in your mind,
Can't you open your heart?
Don't want to be left behind.

You open your mouth and I know
What you're going to say
