Part 16 'Returning to Reality'

(Christmas day and she choose to leave, after she knew exactly how much Skye had been looking forward to spending Christmas with her 'new sister'. Lorelai seems more concerned about the fact that Rory is all alone and upset and not that Skye has been let down yet again by her 'sister'. I've never really been aware of Rory being Skye's mom before, I mean yeah of course I knew it but I always just kind of thought of Logan coming to visit her and being her only parent. And with Rory out of the way I never really thought it was relevant, until now that is. Now that she is living back home, in the place I now also call home. I just I always loved Rory as if she was my own, but then when she left and broke Lorelai's heart, then she left Logan and broke his heart, and she left Skye and Skye doesn't know it yet but because of Rory leaving Skye will have her heart broken when she finds out the truth.)

"Libby, Libby baby, its your Mommy, yeah I know I haven't been with you for a while but I'm back now, I'm going to take you home as soon as I can, I promise" Rory had been laid in the hospital for hours, Libby was unconscious, she laid quietly, her tiny body resting peacefully on the crisp clean hospital sheets, her body attached to countless wires. She looked so helpless, and to Rory she was. Rory had no power to help Libby and that was all she wanted to do.

The Bakers, that's the couples name, the ones who were taking care of Libby while she was away from Rory. When Libby had been taken to hospital, they had called Rory. Rory wasn't sure how they got the number or why they called, she was just glad they had.

"Keep talking to her, she can here you" the nurse came in really quietly, the Bakers had gone outside to talk with the police. Normally if I child was taken into hospital unconscious because they had just collapsed the authority's wouldn't bother to get involved, but because Libby was currently in the custody of the Bakers, the police had to look into it, with them not being her real parents and all.

Rory's lawyer had called as soon as he heard what had happened, he said that now this had happened and now that Rory felt safe enough to tell the court how much she earned and the fact that she did have an apartment away from Alex, that they could appeal as soon as they liked and it was pretty much guaranteed she would get Libby back.

Ever since she had spoken to the lawyer, Rory couldn't help but smile, even if her little baby was unconscious and it was not known what was wrong with her or when she would wake.

"Miss Gilmore, we would like to talk to you outside" Rory was brought back down to earth by the voice of the police officer, staring at her from the doorway.

"Right, I'm coming" Rory stood up and let go of Libby's tiny hand that she had been holding onto so carefully.

After talking to the police, Rory felt a lot better, she felt confident that she would have Libby back soon, then her life would be back on track.

She was prepared now, to make her life work, and even though when she had found out about Libby being in hospital, she had just left her Moms, she had forgotten that she would be letting Skye down and she wanted Skye, Luke and her Mom to be a part of her new life.

The phone rang in the Gilmore house; Lorelai was sitting on the sofa, watching Skye lay out next to her fast asleep. Luke was asleep in the armchair and Lorelai had just been watching some crummy TV movie. The second Lorelai heard the phone ring she jumped up to answer it, partly because she thought it would be Rory, and partly because she didn't want to wake Luke and Skye, after all it was Christmas day and they deserved a little rest after waking so early.

"Hello"

"Mom" Rory whispered on the end of the phone

"Rory, oh my God where are you, are you ok. Why did you just leave like that?" Lorelai was full of questions but didn't mean to make it seem like she was mad, because even though she was upset, she wasn't mad, she couldn't be, she had spent too many years being mad at Rory for leaving and that had got her no where.

"I'm sorry, Libby's in hospital" Rory cried on the end of the phone "She wont wake up" Rory had finally let it all out, yes she was trying to be strong and putting on a front, but Lorelai was one of the only 2 people in the world, she could cry in front of and feel like it was completely ok.

"Oh baby, I'm so sorry….." Lorelai was beyond words, nothing could describe to Rory how bad she felt for Rory right now, after all, Lorelai knew exactly what it felt like to have something she loved so much torn away from her…..

Cry yourself to sleep baby

But don't let it disturb you

For you are not the weak one honey

You are strong and full of will.
