Lorelai left the hospital just as the doctors we're coming in to take tests. She knew that Luke would be okay, but she had this gut feeling that something was going to happen and it wouldn't go away. She always had that feeling from when the doctor told her that Luke was in the hospital, to the walk out of the hospital.
"Rory? Rory? Where are you?" Lorelai yelled looking into her room and watching the upstairs to see if there was any movement. She didn't see Rory. She went into the kitchen and started to make herself a pot of coffee when she saw a note on the refrigerator that read:
Mom,
Went out with Jess. He was feeling down so I thought I would cheer him up, so we are going to see a movie and be home. Love You,
Rory
Lorelai read the note and smiled. She knew that in Rory's heart was pure love. That no one could break that hold on life. That's what she liked, loved about Rory. The way that she can depend on her own actions to lead her into a path that will take her in the right direction.
Lorelai grabbed a cup out of the cupboard and filled it with coffee. When she took a sip of her coffe a flashback of the first time she met Luke popped inot her head. The way she ran in begging for coffee, how he told her to shut up, the way he talked to her when she didn't stop bugging him, the way she handed him the horoscope, and the way she smiles every time he talks to her. She couldn't stop thinking about him. All alone. In the hospital. With no one there to entertain him. She felt bad.
"Mom?" Rory said.
"Yeah...Lorelai...you here?" Jess said looking at Rory.
"In the kitchen." Lorelai shouted.
"Mom, how's Luke doing?" Rory asked.
Lorelai walked out into the living room where she greeted Rory and Jess. She knew that they had been together for a long time, but she was still getting used to the fact that he was putting his hands all over her daughter. Her only daughter. The daughter that she gave birth to....
"He's fine. There thinking about releasing him on Tuesday. I don't know if I can wait that long." Lorelai said with a sigh.
"Well, Get this. You get to stay here tonight. I got you and me out of Friday Night Dinners for today. I know you have been going through a lot, but you don't need anymore stress than you already have." Rory said giving her mother a hug. She knew that her mother was feeling bad, but she didn't know the true feelings she was feeling. Hurt. Pain. Suffering. The gut feeling was still there. She didn't know how to get rid of it.
"Okay. Thanks. You're a great daughter. hey, im going to go upstairs and go to bed. If you want Jess. You can stay here with Rory. I mean it's no problem. Plus it's probably sad being in Luke's when there is no Luke." Lorelai said.
"Um...Sure if it's not a problem." Jess said looking first at Rory and then Lorelai. They both shook their head. Lorelai gave Rory a kiss goodnight and made her way up the stairs. She didn't know if she could bare being in her room which smelled so much like Luke. Everything in her room reminded her of Luke. The curtains. The dresser. The clothes. The bed. The sheets. The pillows. The whole room made her realize that she didn't want to be without Luke. She saw a flannel shirt that he had worn the night before hanging on the chair. She pulled it off and gripped it tightly as she lay in the bed. She knew that this was the start of a long night. Right then the tears came pouring out of her. She was crying hysterically. Into the flannel shirt. The shirt that Luke had taken off before they made love. Before all of this happened. Before Lorelai went through all this pain. Just as Lorelai was about to fall asleep the phone rang.
"Hello?" Lorelai said.
"Hello. Lorelai Gilmore. This is the Hospital calling...."
