Lindsay : Dean! What are you doing in here, you know you can't see the bride before the wedding, it's bad luck!

Dean had to chuckle at that, Lindsay was always the one never to monkey with tradition.

Dean: Lindsay, I think we need to talk. (motions for her to sit down) I can't do this. I can't go through with this wedding as if it is all ok, I don't want to hurt you.

He couldn't dare bring his eyes to meet hers, knowing she would already be crying.

Silence passed, Dean could hear her crying, this is what he didn't want to happen, but it was the only way.

Lindsay was first to break the silence.

Lindsay: It's because of her, isn't it? Don't need to deny it now, I feel like a fool that I thought you actually loved me and wanted me, but no. You just wanted a distraction from her.

Dean: Lindsay I do love you, this is why it's so hard. I'm just not ready for this.

He was lying through his teeth, and Lindsay knew he was.

Lindsay: I…I think you should just go. She is probably waiting for you.

Lindsay is facing away from him, she won't even look at him. Dean knew there was nothing else to be said, so he got up and walked towards the door.

Dean: Lindsay I do love you, and I'm sorry.

That was the last thing he said before leaving, Lindsay didn't even respond, she just sat there with tears in her eyes.

Back in Chicago

"1863 Air heart Lane Apartment 3" Dean said to him self as he reached apartment number 3. Waiting a second to recollect him self, he knocked on the door.

He could hear movement in the apartment, knowing someone was coming to answer it. Just as he was about to knock again the door swung open.

"Dean!"

Dean couldn't believe what he had just done, he felt like a monster for hurting Lindsay. But it was for the best, he tried to keep telling himself. He knew if he didn't do something now, he might end up doing something stupid later and messing up their marriage. So it was for the best.

After walking around for about 20 minutes Dean knew he couldn't go home, his family was there getting ready for his wedding, the wedding he just called off 20 minutes ago.

"God they must hate me." He said aloud to nobody in particular.

Rounding the corner he found himself in front of the familiar house. He didn't know if he should go in, she probably has already left by now.

Deciding against himself Dean left, walked back to his house. Upon seeing his family leaving the house Dean jumped behind some bushes so not to be seen. Waiting several minutes he checked to see if the coast was clear.

He ran into the house straight up to his room. Grabbing his duffel bag from the floor throwing it on the bed. He grabbed as many clothes he could and stuffed them in there. Before leaving he took one last look at his room, went back to his dresser and grabbed his picture of her. Then he left.

He decided against taking his truck, knowing they would have the police looking for it, he got on the bus and watched as he left the small town of Stars Hollow, the place he called home.

Back in Chicago

"Dean! What are you…wow what brings you here?" Stepping aside to let Dean in.

Dean: Well, um..kind of hard to explain. I got on a bus and ended up here. (dropping his bag next to the door) I needed to get away. Would it be alright if I stayed here for awhile?

"Of course! Your always welcome. Now come give me a hug!"

Dean embraced his friend, it seemed like years since he had last scene her.

"Now lets get you something to eat! Looks like you haven't been fed in a week!"

Both chuckle as she shuts the door.
