A/N: For those of you who are saying "I want a happy ending, don't make it sad," did you not read the original story? I said in that that this ending is not going to be happy, and that if you didn't want a sad ending, that you shouldn't read this. I also said that the chapter was short, and I realized that, so if I make a note that "This is a short chapter, I'll make it longer for the next one," don't tell me that I should try making chapters longer. I obviously already know. And for those of you who are reading this and not reviewing, you either have no opinions at all or are too lazy to post, so please, it's not that difficult to hit a few buttons and say something. Now that I am done with my rant, on with the story. It IS sad, so get over it. Thanks to those of you who reviewed!
Chapter 3"Oh my god, tell me you're kidding."
"Steph? What's wrong, what happened?" Rory asked frantically.
She hung up the phone and turned to Rory, tears pooling in her eyes.
"It, its Logan. He, he was in a car accident, he's in the hospital."
Rory stared at her friend, tears immediately forming in her eyes and falling down her face. She stood frozen, unable to move.
"I'll get my car, and we'll go, okay?" Steph said shakily. "Rory, you okay? Rory?"
"What? Oh yea, okay, I just…Steph, I'm scared."
"I know sweetie, but let me get the car and we'll go. He'll be fine, okay?"
They arrived at the hospital shortly after. She rushed into the lobby where Finn and Colin were pacing around.
"What happened? Is he okay?" Steph asked frantically.
"Colin replied quietly, "We don't know. He hit his head and he's unconscious last we heard. The doctors promised to let us know if anything changes. Hey," he said, glancing over at Rory. "She okay?"
Rory was standing, staring out the window, and watching the rain that had started to pour. She had her back to them, but it was obvious that she was crying.
Steph answered, "She told him she loved him on their date, and, well, you know his story."
"Oh, wow, that must be really tough. You did tell her, right?"
"Yea, I did, but, I can't imagine how she must feel right now."
Rory stared out the window, the raindrops on the pane reflecting the tears running down her face. This was my fault. If I hadn't told him that I loved him, then we would have left together and he wouldn't be here. I will never forgive myself if something happens. I wish he knew I was here for him.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice behind her.
"You're all here for a Logan Huntzberger, correct? Well, he just regained consciousness, and we're allowing one visitor at a time, for 10 minutes. Who wants to go first?"
The other three turned and looked at Rory, and she wordlessly followed the doctor into the hallway. He pointed to a door, and reminded her that she only had ten minutes. She opened the door quietly, and walked over to the side of the bed. Her breath caught when she saw him. He was hooked up to an IV, and there was a monitor showing his heart rate. He had a bruise on the entire left side of his face, and various scratches over it.
"Logan?" She asked quietly. He didn't respond, and by his soft and even breathing, she assumed he was asleep. She took his hand gently in hers. "Logan, I am so sorry about everything. Steph told me about your grandfather, and I understand completely. I am so sorry. This is all my fault. If I hadn't said anything tonight, you wouldn't be here, like this. It kills me to see you hurt. I am so sorry. But, you need to know that I really do love you, so much. I need you to be okay." The machine next to her beeped, and she saw the very light lines forming, showing his faint heart beat.
"God, Logan, if anything happens to you I would never forgive myself. I love you, I couldn't stand to be here without you. You are my life, I can't, I don't know what I would do without you. You have to be okay." She paused, unable to control her emotions. After a few minutes, she heard a light knock on the door. The doctor called to her, "Only a few more minutes."
She turned back to Logan. "Alright, well, I have to go for a little while. I wish I could stay here with you, I don't want to leave you, but I have to, for a little while. I love you, Logan."
She turned and stood, keeping shi hand in hers for as long as she could. Right before she lost contact, she heard him stir.
"Rory?" he said quietly, so that she could barely hear it.
She smiled, and answered, "Yes?"
"Rory, I love you."
As she stepped towards him, she noticed a change on the monitor next to his bed. The line had gone flat.
