Lorelai sat alone in room. She was rarely angry with her daughter, but there were those times when Lorelai was so unspeakably angry with Rory. Lorelai sat in silence for a while until the impact of her daughter's words hit her. Rory was right, Lorelai had never been able to keep a relationship. She had always been the one to end a relationship and ended up not only hurting herself, but the man who she would leave confused and upset. The thought about Michael with his two children, did she really want to do that to him? Lorelai numbly stood up and went to the phone, absently dialing Michael's number not really knowing what she was going to say. One ring went by, than two. After four rings, the answering machine came on.
"Hi, you've reached the Hanson residence. Please leave your name and number in your message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks," the beep went off but Lorelai didn't speak. After several silent seconds she began.
"Michael, hi. Um, this is Lorelai. I just wanted to say. Well, I wanted to tell you I can't do this. This…relationship. It wasn't anything you did…it's just…well, I can't do it. I'm sorry. Maybe if it was different it would work…well, thanks for everything. Bye." Lorelai hung up the phone. She didn't know why she just did that, she just broke up another relationship. Well, it was for Michael's good. He would find some great, nice, pretty women, who would be able to keep a relationship.
Lorelai numbly went to her bed and fell asleep, tired from the day's adversities.

Rory exited the house and stormed towards her car in such a rage that she didn't notice Logan standing by her car.
"Hey Ace," he said grinning, "I was wondering if…"
"Logan, I have to go, sorry," Rory cut him off shortly.
"What the...Ace?" Logan said in confusion.
"Logan, I just don't want to deal with you now. I'm sorry, I have to go," Rory said. She pushed him out of the way, and opened the car door.
"Rory? What is this about?"
Rory ignored him and got into the drivers seat of the car and put the key in the ignition.
"Rory, wait," Logan started, but Rory drove on without answering him.
"Shit," Rory thought to herself, "why did I have to blow him off like that? I should of answered him, or at least told him why I was so mad at him. Whatever though. He'll know soon enough."
Rory's cell phone rang. "Ugh, Logan," she though. Rory was surprised to see the call coming from not Logan, but another number, one she apparently didn't have in her database.
"Hello?"
"Um, hi. Rory?" A familiar voice came on the other end. It took Rory a few seconds to place it.
"Michael?" Rory asked.
"Yeah, um hi. I don't really want to pry, but your mom just called me and…"
Michael never got to finish his sentence as Rory cut him off, "Yeah? What did my mom say, because you know what, I don't have anything to do with her or her life. So whatever she did, just talk to her about it!" Rory shouted into the phone.
"Rory, I'm sorry. I just want to clear things up. I'm a little confused right now," Michael said apologetically. Rory instantly felt guilty upon hearing the tone of his voice.
"Michael, I am so sorry I just bit your head off. I'm a little on edge right now."
"Does it have to do with your mom?" Michael asked curiously.
"Actually it does have to do with my mom," an awkward moment fell before Rory continued, "Anyway, what do you need? I at least should help her boyfriend."
Another awkward silence fell before Michael said, "Um, actually, Lorelai just left a message on my phone saying she wants to break up with me. I have no idea why, and I was hoping that you could maybe tell me why."
"Oh my god!" Rory thought to herself, "Does this have to do with what I said to her?"
Rory didn't know what she was going to say to Michael. How was she going to tell this guy, this guy who happened to really like her mother, that she had played Cupid's evil twin between them? She decided that she would have to tell Michael the truth, and resolved to do all she could to get them back together.
"Um, Michael I said some things to my mom that maybe I shouldn't of. Some of it was sort of about how she had trouble keeping a relationship. I think that may have been part of the reason why she called you," Rory said very quickly.
"Oh," was all Michael could manage.
"Right, anyway. Do you still want to get back together with her?" Rory asked.
"Yeah, I really do."
"Ok, let me handle my mom and I'm sure you will get another call very soon. I'm so sorry, Michael," Rory said.
"Thanks so much, Rory. I really like your mom, and I can't say how much you offering to help me like this means to me."
"It's no problem. After all, it's my fault that this happened," Rory said somewhat awkwardly. "Ok, um, bye. And tell Michaela that I say hey,"
"I will, bye Rory."
Rory hung up. She turned around in a random driveway and began driving back to her mom's house. Her mom may have pissed her off, and vice versa, but that was no reason for her to break up with a guy who so obviously loved her.

Logan sat in his chauffeur's car, confused and somewhat hurt. It was a very uncommon feeling for Logan to feel. Rory was mad at him, again, and he had no idea why. He thought that it was good between them. What had happened? Logan pulled out his cell phone, and than on second thought decided not to call her. Everything would be sorted out later, her was sure.
